> I feel that the majority of relationships and marriages say 60-70 years ago were happy and mutually fulfilling, but now anecdotally it seems that most people are not happy whatsoever.

It's because many women have bought into the lie that getting it all and bridging every perceived equality gap will somehow make them happy. Of course, when women are unhappy, their men are more likely to be miserable as well. Men are equally to blame for being passive and enabling these systems of inherent discontent.

This isn't a women problem.

The internet made the world a much smaller place. There's nothing left to discover; we've seen and done everything this planet has to offer by the time we're 25.

So we look to space, for a new frontier we can be miserable in. At least the struggle of surviving that will be a distraction for a while.

That article doesn't claim what you seem to think it claims.

So are you saying that for women to be happy they have to....go back to the kitchen?

Could also have the implication that high-committal economic participation in the post WWII-era was/is also bad for men. It was always a raw deal, but it was also the only general marker of success/achievement/prosperity.

Alright Cathy Newman.

No, probably what many women are finding is that selling your soul to a company isn't all it is made out to be.

Plenty of men report the same on their deathbeds, wishing they hadn't worked so much and had spent more time with family.

I've been seeing a lot of talk like GP on HN lately. I'm starting to wonder if it's organized.

While I strongly disagree with that GP post, baseless speculation invoking conspiracy theories, just because you disagree with an opposing point of view, is one of the primary reasons I don't use Twitter. Please don't bring that to HN.
