Researchers found that☝🏽when they asked 3 sets of legally married couples-heterosexual, gay & lesbian-to keep daily diaries recording experiences of marital strain & distress. Men married to women & women married to women were in the middle, recording similar levels of distress.
“What’s striking, says the lead author of the study, Michael Garcia, is that earlier research had concluded that women in general were likely to report the most relationship distress. But it turns out that’s only women married to men.”
