Wann sind Frauen wirklich zufrieden?

Schröder's impressive pioneering work gives hope that science can help us better master the art of living with satisfaction. Psychology Today discusses "When Are We Truly Satisfied?"

Surprisingly, many women enjoy working part-time and wish to engage more with their families. However, they do not feel disadvantaged by this; on the contrary, they feel recognized and satisfied. Professionally, women can be just as successful as men, but they often want something different. This clear message is conveyed by the data from the Socio-Economic Panel and the relationship study pairfam, which Martin Schröder has analyzed. In contrast, feminism— which has undoubtedly achieved much for women's life plans—proclaims injustices and disadvantages even where the data clearly show otherwise: women are already living as they please. They choose their life plans themselves and do not have to justify them to anyone.
