Found this note in The Register; my only concern is that it’s a poll by Matalan which isn't exactly my idea of the number one designer shop for women.
Are they big in the States...........Matalan that is?
The average woman will - between the ages of 16 and 60 - spend 287 days deciding what to wear.
That's according to Matalan, which polled 2,491 females and found that this essential activity accounts for an average 16 minutes on weekday mornings, 14 minutes after getting up at weekends and up to 20 minutes bothering the wardrobe prior to a night out.
Add to that dinner and works parties, etc etc (six per year at 36 minutes a pop) and the marathon 52 minutes selecting suitable togs to take on holiday, and you've got an awful lot of irritated partners pacing up and down outside the bedroom door.
A spokesman for Matalan mitigated: "What you wear has a direct impact on how you feel about yourself and it is important a woman feels exceptional in her outfit. Whatever the occasion your clothes portray an image and we understand this is fundamentally important to women."

Golly, very glad to know that I'm not the average. So long as my trusty combat trousers are vaguely respectable and whatever I'm wearing fits, I'm happy!
I wonder how long I spend removing nasal and aural hair?
