A survey conducted on International Women's day is revealing as it blows away some myths and explains that satisfaction with Life is not related to material comforts.
Where the West feels its Statistics are not comfortable for them especially against their illusion of grandeur ,they go to lengths to justify their record by calling the Countries names!

Some findings are really Weird and confusing.

Women seem to have the Best of Life in New Zealand.

But Women in the Middle East are most satisfied with their Health.

The West can not accept this,

The explanation is ' but that could be because health care access in those countries is lower across the board, so sickness is equal-opportunity:"

Safety;

"

Women feel safest in the tiny, former-Soviet country of Georgia:....Think it's safer to live in a richer country? Not really. Women in poorer countries are actually likelier to feel safe, but then again, definitions of "feeling safe" aren't exactly universal:

Standards for personal security may also be much lower in developing than in developed countries, which helps explain why many low-income countries appear high on the list."

The conception of the West is that Japan Women are being subjected to Domestic violence is also blown.

Women in Japan experience the least domestic violence

Analyzing data from 10 countries, the World Health Organization found that cities in Japan and rural areas in Peru represent the extremes of domestic violence (though to be fair, the survey didn't measure very many Central Asian, European or North American countries):

The proportion of women who had ever suffered physical violence by a male partner ranged from 13 percent in Japan to 61 percent in provincial Peru. The most common act of violence experienced by women was being slapped by their partner, from 9 percent in Japan to 52 percent in provincial Peru. This was followed by being struck with a fist, for which these two settings again represented the extremes (2 percent and 42 percent, respectively)."
