With International Women's Day approaching this Sunday, March 8th, let's take a look to see how women have perceived their lives in the past. Nearly 2 billion women worldwide rate their lives low enough to be considered struggling or suffering, according to Gallup's Life Evaluation Index. This is the least likely in wealthy and developing nations, with Iceland and Sweden at the top. Women in nations like Afghanistan and Iraq rate their lives the worst.
