A scientific study has shown that unmarried and childless women are the happiest subgroup of the population and are more likely to live longer than their peers who are married and raising children.
Experts said that men benefited from marriage because they “calmed down.” They take fewer risks, make more money at work, and live longer. Women’s health, on the other hand, was mostly unaffected by marriage.
Despite the benefits of a single, childless lifestyle for women, the traditional stigma may lead some single women to feel unhappy.
科學研究發現，在人類族群中最幸福的族群，是未婚、沒有小孩的女性，她們甚至可能比已婚、有小孩的同齡族群更長壽。
專家指出，男性會從婚姻中受益，因為這讓他們可以「冷靜下來」，因此承擔的風險更少、工作上賺更多錢，且變得更長壽。相較之下，婚姻對女性的健康則沒有明顯的影響。
雖然單身、無子女的生活方式對女性較有好處，但傳統污名卻可能導致單身女性感到不開心。
subgroup 是「子群、次群」的意思，指的是隸屬於一個大群內較小的子群。
例句：Chinese is the largest subgroup of the Asian population. 華人是亞洲人口中最大的子群。
