According to a study by data analysts Mintel, 61 per cent of single women are happy being single, versus 49 per cent of single men. 根据研究员敏特(Mintel)的调查显示,61%的单身女性对单身状态非常满足,男性的这一比例为49%。 The survey also found that 75 per cent of single women have not actively looked for a relationship in the last year, compared to 65 per cent of single men. 调查还显示,去年,75%的单身女性对寻找伴侣并不热忱,65%的男性同样未显示出兴趣。 And the proposed reason for this is that for women, being in a heterosexual relationship is actually a lot of hard work, and generally requires more effort and labour than for men. 原因可能在于,女性在进入一段关系后,要承担更多的工作,需要比男性付出更多。 |
