"According to the United States General Social Survey, women’s overall level of happiness has dropped since 1972."

Not long after I was born. Figures.

that tends to happen when you spend enough time reading magazines and watching daytime talk shows that are all reinforcing the idea that your life sucks!

Correlation or causation? ;-P

I can only speak for myself, having said that, motherhood is what made me happiest. I waited until I was 32 yrs old to get married. I had a good job. I travelled all over the world. When I had a preemie, I decided to stay home with him. The first few months were very unrewarding (lots of diapers, barf, sleep deprivation, etc). As the baby grew older and I was able to find more and more rewards, I really began to grow into my role. I can’t imagine anything that is more rewarding than helping my children find their way in the world. The rewards seem endless...

“What does feminism hold for me?”

That’s easy: Psychological and economic rents.

That’s because their happiness is dependent on stomping on our happiness.
