American statistics show that despite huge gains in achieving equality with men, women are less happy than they were 40 years ago. They are also less happy than men.
The United States General Social Survey, which questions American men and women on their happiness levels, reports that nearly all women – whether married or single, with children or without, working or not – are less happy than in 1972.
Wow, have you got that wrong. You think "women have it all"? That's a load of crap.
Oh, yeah. One more thing. Then, after all that, they have to put up with some guy's comment that "they're never satisfied no matter how hard we try to please them".

women are still expected to perform their traditional roles as homemaker, cook, housemaid, and so on.

I would venture to say its because they are working outside their biological roles and are getting very tired of it.
I would also venture to say that a lot of women would love to go back to being house wives and mothers if the husband could afford it.
On the flip side, I would also state that males are having similar issues due to not being "Men" any more. I know I'm always happier after I finish mowing the yard or fixing the guttering than if I have to wash dishes or mop the floors.
Not being sexist, just throwing out an idea.

In spite of social changes freeing women to do more and the promise that women can have it all; Success, a career, family, women in general are not as happy as their male counterparts.
