Women, particularly women of that generation as they enter the endgame, are finally losing their Obligatory General Caretaker role, while the men, particularly same, are feeling increasingly useless and unmanned (the latter mostly physically). Or so I suspect accounts for a lot of the discrepancy in self-assessment of quality of life.
I know why men are grumpier. They have to live with women.
Hey, it's joke. I don't need a bunch of quacking dames busting my chops just because I made a goddam joke, okay? That's the trouble with people these PC days--can't take a joke. And turn the damn radio down!
