According to the Wikipedia article on happiness economics, historically women's have reported greater happiness than men up till the 1960s. This coincides with the triumph of first wave feminism - suffrage an legal obstacles and the emergence of social justice feminism that's more retributory and provides retaliatory privellages for women. Since then, women have reported increasingly less happiness and are no more unhappy than men on aggregate, in the West. Evidence supporting social conservatism?
