major positive impacts of marriage:
People who are married live longer than
those who are single or divorced. '' Not
being married can be harmful to your
health,'' they said. Females who are not
married have a 50% higher mortality rate
than married women, while males who are
not married have a 25%higher mortality
rate than married men.

expectancy as a result of their healthier
lifestyle. Single guys are more likely to
participate in dangerous behaviors such as
drinking, smoking, and using drugs. In

level of risky conduct. In addition both a
man's and woman's health benefit from
marriage.

couples tend to keep a closer eye on each
other's health.

widowed, or cohabiting people. About 40% of
married people said they were very happy
with their lives, whereas only 18% of
divorced people, 15% of separated people,
22% of widowed, and 22% of cohabiting
people were very happy.

couple have sex more frequently and find
their sexual relationship more satisfying
