[quote=Anonymous]I'm an older Gen X and I can only sort of relate to the article. While I do think that everyone has their own U curve in life based on many different factors - it's basically when your own personal life stresses go very high causing your sense of satisfaction to go way down (ex: stress of work, stress of aging parents, difficulties with children/school, ill spouse, financial worries, divorce) - I do not think that this is at all unique to women. I also think that it's possible to bottom out on the U curve earlier than late 40's and that some people stay bottomed out longer than others do. Some might have a very quick low point and more of a V curve, with things staying bad for a relatively short time. Others might wind up with a W (or repeated W) depending on their life circumstances.
