India and Mexico say the same percentage but the bars are different sizes. Either the data or the bars are inaccurate, this data is not beautiful :(

And China has a longer bar with 1% less than Mexico

They are ordered according to the midpoint position, it seems.

Did they ask women and men or just men?

The article doesn't say, and it also reads like it's written by an AI.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Probebly the latter

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Or just women?

I don't know how popular arranged marriage is nowadays but it may be a huge factor with India's high ranking.

I read this short book thinking I would be laughing at the backwardness but ended up admiring it as high culture.

I remember seeing data that over a longer timescale arrange marriages are happier, and the crossover point was sobething around 5 years.

I refuse to believe Americans are less satisfied than Brits.

Lol. We've got our problems, but shagging ain't one of them

Brits unloaded their Puritans on the new world, it's the Yanks' problem now

I would like to see this again for people under 30. Or maybe just people who were single in the last 5 years. I feel like this doesn't actually give too much information without accounting for other factors. I do think the unsure category in this study is interesting though. South Korea's being tiny makes sense given their divisive situation. I wonder what situations lead to that number being bigger or smaller.

Thats interesting! I'd love to see it by country though. Comparing young and old in the USA or South Korea would be interesting I think.
