    another article on the same thing

    It's funny how many women seem to be making a living extolling

    the joys of being single. They write books about it, make

    studies, and fill Salon with the same idea over and over again.

    It makes me feel like a bit of a failure. I'm a happily married

    woman without a book deal or a PhD. I guess I read Salon to see

    these personal issues snappily summed up and debated in public

    (I can find political and literary analyses elsewhere)

    but the outcome is getting too predictable, the air has left

    the room.
