Women who ride are happier, more fulfilled

Post by debron »

. . . that's the headline of a new study as reported by Yahoo.
Freud asked, "What does woman want?"

Harley-Davidson has the answer. She wants a motorcycle -- or should.

That is the result of a study of female motorcycle riders and non-riders, commissioned by the Wisconsin-based bike manufacturer.

Female riders were twice as likely as their non-riding counterparts to feel "confident." They were twice as likely, too, to feel "extremely satisfied" with their appearance.
. . .

The study, in which 1,013 riders and 1,016 non-riders were interviewed by the market research company Kelton Global, seems to bear that out. The results say female riders are happier in their careers, happier in their friendships, happier with their home lives, and twice as likely to be "extremely satisfied" with their sex lives.
Unfortunately the study was commissioned by Harley Davidson and I'm always suspicious of study results that support the organization that paid for the study! Still, this makes sense, but I'm thinking all of this is true for men also. . . .
