Lifestyle crisis drives women to seek change

MORE than half of women in Britain think everyday life is easier for men and are fed up of leading dull and gruelling treadmill lifestyles, according to a new survey.

Juggling punishing work and household roles with spiralling debts, rubbish sex and social lives and the pressures of having a perfect body are blamed for triggering a lifestyle crisis in many women.

Eight out of 10 women said they wish they could change their lives, 67% feel like they are on a treadmill and are worn out, and 60% think life is easier for men, according to The Female Lifestyle Survey of Great Britain 2004.
