The 2024 American Family Survey indicates that liberal women aged 18-40 are significantly less satisfied with their lives compared to their conservative counterparts. Only 12% of liberal women reported being "completely satisfied" with their lives, while 37% of conservative women and 28% of moderate women felt the same way. Liberal women are also more likely to experience loneliness, with 29% feeling lonely a few times a week or more, compared to 11% of conservative women. The survey attributes these differences to varying rates of marriage and church attendance among liberal and conservative women.

This isn't something to be proud of. Thirty seven percent?
I have only known two or three women that have had genuinely difficult lives. All the rest of them breeze through life barely ever facing any difficulties. They are spoiled by parents, have their asses kissed throughout school, given special treatment and extra help and free tuition in colleges, professors allow them to use any excuses, men of all sorts kiss their ass and the world is expect to cater to them and make concessions even for women that are strangers to them.
The hardest thing they have to do is deliver and raise babies, something they want to do and if they don't they become even more miserable. If they work a job they always push their work onto everyone around them and play around in the office all day.
My mother was the pretty young woman whose ass was kissed by her parents throughout her childhood. She got two bullshit degrees and I'm sure everyone pushed her through. When she graduated she worked a total of about eighteen months. After that she met a man, got married and never worked another day in her life. She moved to one of the nicest, safest neighborhoods in the US, a place where famous people go to escape from the world. She could (and did) sleep late and had no responsibilities other than taken care of three kids.
She slacked on her responsibilities and blamed her kids for her life. She was unhappy because she was bored. She had everything a woman could ever want in life and still she was miserable.
I see this in women I work with. They get the bare minimum so it's hardly even a job and still they complain about how hard they work. Thirty seven percent of women being sane is not a stat you shouldn't be proud of.
Its almost like coddling and indulging people is a bad way to raise competent and confident people.
Don't simp and indulge your wife. Spare the rod, spoil the child and all that.
People really aren't made for luxury in general.
A lot of people have difficult lives. I don't know many who have difficult lives not mostly because of choices they have made. Then, some people were raised poorly, so they make poor choices, so they end up in difficult circumstances, so they make poor choices, and so forth. Much more common than the victim of outside circumstances is the victim of the feedback loop that will get us all uninterrupted.
