Maureen Dowd's opinion piece about some recent research on women and happiness.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/20/opinion/20dowd.html
"According to the General Social Survey, which has tracked Americans’ mood since 1972, and five other major studies around the world, women are getting gloomier and men are getting happier.
Before the ’70s, there was a gender gap in America in which women felt greater well-being. Now there’s a gender gap in which men feel better about their lives."
It's interesting to hear how Dowd makes sense of the data. Enjoy!
