What's more, women are simply happier being single than men are. We’re better at socialising by ourselves and are more likely to have close friends we feel we can turn to in times of need.

另外，单身女性比单身男性更快乐。女性更善于社交，拥有患难之交的几率更大。

“Certainly there's a common finding from a lot of studies that women who don't have a partner tend to do more social activities and more friends compared to women with partners whereas with men it's the reverse - men without a partner tend to do much less of that.

“多项研究表明，没有伴侣的女性会从事更多社会事业，交更多的朋友，有伴侣的女性则不同，而单身男性只会减少从事社会事业。”

“So it may be that women have a wider range of alternatives,” she said.

“除了伴侣，女性可能会有更多样的选择。”

There's also the fact that the stigma of being a single woman is gradually changing.

也有事实表明，女性对单身状态的羞愧感也在逐渐改变。

The concept of spinsters and bachelors is on the way out, and society is finally realising that yes, many single women aren’t in relationships because they’re actually happy being independent, doing whatever they want with their time, and they don’t actually need anyone else.

单身的概念逐步得以淘汰，社会最终会意识到，很多单身女性不寻找伴侣，是因为她们对独立的状态很满足，可以做任何想做的事，并不需要伴侣。
