> "But another explanation for the persistence of the male/female happiness gap is that men may have reaped more than their fair share of benefits from the women's movement"
You didn't think you were attending a circus, but behold the mental gymnastics and the clown show. That's right folk's, the primary beneficiaries of the women's movement was men.
What else would it have ever been? What do women have to materially gain by not being in healthy productive monogamous relationships? If a woman can rear her children and keep them healthy and happy without being away from home 10-12 hours a day what could she possibly gain by working and sleeping around?
Succesful men however have a biological imperative to spread their seed AND the government will take care of the wife and kids if he can't... making room sociologically for him to continue that pattern of behavior.
