Thought the whole thing sounded quite sensible and plausible until the end when it said...

 

The article

 

we know from other evidence that marriage is good for your health

 

Oh and no, sorry ladies, seems to be about blokes only

Not sure where that leaves me as I attended an all boys school but I have just passed 30 years of marriage

[bridge too far]

I think it's been known for a long time that married men have a happier and healthier life than married women.

 

And that single women have a happier and healthier life than single men.

 

Make of that what you will!

Well, of COURSE a married woman would say that her Husband is happy.....

 

Of course she would believe that - epecially since he has to do everything she tells him.... "I'm happy, I tell him everything he has to do so therefore by deduction of course my Husband is happy

my wife is unbelievably happy as she married me. I can't see how single women are happy, as they always seem to be desperate to get married to make them so.

Ps im am very happy and lucky as well

In what play did Shakespeare use that phrase?

[Danish Saint]

If Shakespeare didn't write such form of splendid and superb poetry, there's no hope for mankind...

Hang on a minute. An unpleasantly f*ck-free existence only knocks three months off your life?

 

Something wrong with the methodology, I think.
