Uh oh, women are worse than ever:

More women are binge drinking, saying they downed five or more drinks at a single occasion in the past month, and fewer are being screened for cervical cancer. Over all, more women are obese, diabetic and hypertensive than just a few years ago, and more are testing positive for chlamydia, a sexually transmitted disease linked to infertility.

Plus we have literally been given a report card, and we got a “U” for unsatisfactory. Perhaps there’s some kind of popsicle-stick thing we can make for extra credit, or like an elderly relative we can interview. [Via]
