All the single ladies, put your hands up!
And if you like being single, then don’t put a ring on it because according to a recent study, women are at their most happiest when unattached and childless!
Behavioral scientist Paul Dolan revealed that traditional benchmarks, such as marriage and children, were no longer signs of fulfillment and don't line up with happiness.
“The healthiest and happiest population subgroup are women who never married or had children,” he said when speaking at the Hay Festival in the United Kingdom over the weekend.
