To BE or NOT to BE married?!
"Every women should marry - and no man!" commented one wit almost 150 years ago. But scientific evidence has tended to suggest that it's men who find happiness through marriage more than women! It has been shown that single men are the least happy social group, while married men are the happiest. But a new study from La Trobe University in Melbourne reveals that woman do benefit as well : 25% of single people were miserable, compared with only 30% of married people. Among the women surveyed, those who were married with children and a job had the fewest mental health problems.
It's a good information for thought! ;)

Maybe women are not as happy after marriage because they marry the wrong men? It's possible that women find it easier to make men happy than for men to make women happy...

The statistics doesn't necessarily show that getting married is more likely to increase happiness. In order to find that out, you would need to examine the happiness before and after marriage. It could just be that people who are able to find someone to marry are generally more happy, which makes sense as happier people are more likely to attract a mate. Similarly, people with mental health problems may be less likely to marry. Statistics mean nothing by themselves.
