Pull Quote (emphasis mine):
Wilcox says the “striking” thing about the survey results is that “the happiness gap is very large between conservative and liberal women….this is in part because conservative women are more focused on family life and in part because conservative women are more religious. In other words, cultural differences between the two groups of women are key to explaining ideological gaps in life satisfaction, family life, and marital status.”

Conservative women “enjoy a 15 percentage-point advantage over liberal women in being ‘completely satisfied’ with their lives,” he noted at the website of the American Enterprise Institute. “31 percent of conservative women in this age group are completely satisfied with their lives, versus 16 percent of liberal women.”
Wilcox attributes the difference to conservative women’s greater likelihood of marrying and feeling “happy with their family life.”
“In other words, it seems that the happiest women in America today are those least likely to be following the profoundly self-centered and anti-family catechism of our ruling class,” Wilcox says.
In other words, being Normal and traditional sets the stage for happier lives. There’s another report that I have bookmarked somewhere that the number of single women are increasing more and more Liberal. And I bet within their cohort, the question keeps getting asked “where did all the good guys go?”.
Heh! Now you have the answer (in part). They are looking for those that aren’t forever kvetching about their lives.
