We like to think that doctors are somehow superior to the rest of us. After all, doctor knows best, right? We want to believe that they are wiser, more skilled, more honest than we are—except a new survey finds that, in fact, they're not always as honest as you might think. More »

One of the least fun parts of being a lady is the constant barrage of media that insists that there are products to be purchased that might help you overcome your crushing lack of Pretty.

Get higher self-esteem! More »

A survey of 1,000 professional women found that one in five women has never had a professional mentor, and more than half have never had a female mentor. The survey, by networking site LinkedIn, found that while having a mentor is nearly universally beneficial to professional women, women who have not ever had one say they don't because they've never found anyone suitable.

A recent survey of retired Americans by AARP revealed that although retirement means less sex, a majority of retired people say they are happier having retired. However, life is not all rose gardens and happy strolls to the local Sizzler for retired couples: 21% of those surveyed said they had more tension in their marriage after retiring and while 80% of men said they increased their housework load once they retired, only 47% of women agreed.

]]> http://jezebel.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=5101828&view=rss&microfeed=true Prepare to get angry: A recent survey of Australian boys and girls between the ages of 12 and 20 reports that 1 in 3 boys think it's "not a big deal" to hit a woman and 1 in 7 boys think "it's OK to make a girl have sex with you if she was flirting." Meanwhile 1 in 7 girls surveyed had experienced sexual assault or rape with almost a third of girls in Year 10 (roughly sophomore or junior year in American education terms) experiencing unwanted sex. A possible reason for these disturbing trends? A survey of young people in South Australia revealed that 22% had witness male-on-female domestic abuse in their homes. [The Advertiser] More »

Attention, everyone: 20th century Barnard students were loose women. Well, not really, but that seems to be the underlying message of this 1920s article about a controversial "purity survey" in a Columbia University humor magazine. Here were some of the survey's findings: 50% of the women indulged in necking, 34% "soul kissed", 49% had kissed ten different dudes, 66% were tipplers, and 32 women had been "tight." We'll leave it to you to figure out that last one. [Susie Bright's Journal] More »

"If your job could either be more fun or pay you more, which would you choose?" "Do you think having children hurts your career and prospects in the job market, helps, or doesn't make a difference? Do you think having children hurts a man's career or prospects in the job market helps, hurts, or doesn't make a difference?" These are just some of the questions in the Ask a Working Woman Survey 2008, created by the The AFL-CIO and Working America. One of the first questions — in which you are asked to add up the number of hours a week you spend talking to your partner or spouse, the number of hours you spend talking to friends, the number of hours you spend talking to your parents and finally the number of hours you spend talking to your boss or coworkers — was kind of depressing. But the rest was fun. [Ask a Working Woman Survey 2008 via Feminist Law Professors] More »
