SINGLE WOMEN SPEND 30 PER CENT LONGER GETTING READY FOR WORK THAN MARRIED ONES: A recent report by Scholl has found that supposedly in the hope of meeting the man of her dreams, unmarried women spend 11 minutes longer grooming themselves before heading to the office compared to a married woman. The average single lady is reported to take 24 minutes to decide what to wear and 42 minutes to do their hair compared with married women who spend 16 minutes planning their outfit and 24 minutes on their hair and makeup. It also emerged that single women are less likely to leave the house with mismatched underwear, bad roots or tan lines. And let’s not forget unkempt feet and toenails, to give Scholl their plug.
