Successful Marriage
Successful marriage is the most effective form of social support. It relieves the effects of stress, and leads to better mental and physical health. Husbands seem to benefit much more from marriage then wives do. Married women are in better physical and mental health, and are happier than single women, but these effects are nearly twice as great for men.Various explanations have been considered, but the most plausible is that wives provide more social support than husbands.Perhaps men need it more?
They are more exposed to stresses at work, and have worse health and die earlier then women. In addition, when women get married, their way of life is subject to much greater change and this often leads to boring and isolated work in the home for which they are ill-prepared. Despite the benefits of marriage women find it stressful and in better shape if they also have jobs, their earnings and status increase their power in the home, and they may also get social support at work.

成功的婚姻
成功的婚姻是最有效的支持社会的方式。它可以缓解社会压力的作用，使人身心健康。
丈夫似乎从婚姻中得到的好处比妻子多得多。已婚妇女在身心健康方面都优越于独身妇女，但这种影响在男人身上体现得等于女人的两倍。人们考虑了各种解释，但最合理的解释似乎是妻子比丈夫为社会提供更多的支持。
也许男人更需要婚姻?他们在工作中面临更多的压力，身体比女人差，死得也早。此外，女人结婚以后，生活方式发生更大的变化，而这使她
们一头扎进她们还没有准备奸的、乏味的、封闭的家务活中。尽管结婚有好处，但女人们还是觉得有压力。如果她们也有工作，感觉会奸一些。她
们的收入和地位使她们在家里的地位大增，同时在工作中她们还可以得到社会的支持。
