So who are happier ... Men or Women?




The Battle of the Sexes is over . . . and men won. A survey by Captivate Network found that men are happier than women . . . everywhere.

--At the office, men are 25% happier than women. At home, they're 8% happier. And three out of four guys think they do a good job of maintaining a home-and-work balance.

--The profile of the average happy person is a 39-year-old married guy whose wife works part-time. Combined they make six figures, and they have one kid.

--The average unhappy person is a 42-year-old unmarried woman who only makes five figures.

--BUT . . . men are happier at home because the women do most of the work. Twice as many women take care of the laundry, grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning.

--And at work, men are happier because they take more breaks. They're 25% more likely to take some "me time" during the day, 5% more likely to take a lunch, and 11% more likely to take a time out for some mid-day sex.

--Because they're so miserable everywhere they are, women are 9% more likely to say they suffer from stress, 11% more likely to have headaches, and 7% more likely to gain weight.
