Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.It has taken a team of researchers from Middlesex University to confirm what many of us have know all along: that men, far from being Victor Meldrews, mellow with age, while women retain all their fury. According to their findings, presented to the British Psychological Society, among 41- to 60-year-olds, men's anger had fallen and then levelled off while women's remained the same at retirement.

Of course. With women to look after them, men can grow old gracefully. But women, having spent a lifetime looking after men, might have hoped for a relief in retirement. No wonder they rage until the dying of the light.
