Shorter, slimmer, earn more and work fewer hours.

What's slightly scary is that I weigh a couple of pounds less than the average woman! (Said average woman being five inches shorter than me too... as said, she must roll well.)

How the hell has the average height for a woman gone down in the past 30 years? It used to be 5' 4".
