POPSNo Sex, Thank You "According to one study a fifth of Japanese husbands say they are bored with intercourse, while about 15 per cent say they are simply too tired. A similar proportion of women agree that the spark has gone out of their love lives, although fewer than one in 10 blames their lover's poor performance in bed. My husband and I know that is what has happened in our marriage - but we never talk about it." Well, I don't think this is only is Japan folks. Practically all of my friends almost never have sex with their spouses. They have aging parents to take care of, or they have physical issues that affect their sex lives, or they just plain are bored or don't really like their spouse. I feel physical intimacy is important in a marriage, but I'm starting to feel like I'm in the minority.

POPSFemale absenteeism is not just about child care Flett acknowledges that women carry most of the responsibilities at home, whether caring for ill children or aging parents. But he believes women can be their own worst enemies in the workplace because they feel the need to give managers too much information. “Women will often make excuses for why they’re not coming to work, which opens them up to the alpha males that keep them out of the corner office.” But, he maintains, just being a woman, mom or not, can work against you: “It’s a stereotype inoculated in our bone marrow. You are less reliable because you’re a girl and not driven by testosterone.”

POPSHe’s Happier, She’s Less So Latest studies say American men's average happiness level has been going up while womens' have stayed the same, largely due to both increasing social demands from women as well as increasing economic ambitions by them. A big reason that women reported being happier three decades ago — despite far more discrimination — is probably that they had narrower ambitions, Ms. Stevenson says. Many compared themselves only to other women, rather than to men as well. This doesn’t mean they were better off back then.

POPSCaring for elderly parents makes you poor Study finds that women who take care of their elderly parents are more likely to wind up in poverty. It comes as no surprise to me that unregulated labor markets conflict with our family lives.
