It’s lonely being good girl

It’s lonely being good girl

Over 1,300 women have taken the Good Girl Quiz so far, and do you want to know what some of the stand out statistics are?

  • 81% of women say they feel lonely even when surrounded by others
  • 85% say they regularly prioritise the needs of others over their own
  • And unsurprisingly, 76% say they find it difficult to say ‘no’ to others even when it inconveniences them

100% say they are fucking exhausted. (Okay I made that one up!)?

I’ve written a short post on why I think these figures are so high over on my blog, but I’m actually here today for something else!


I need your help!

I’m preparing to release the Good Girl Quiz data to some boffins - it’s anonymous of course!

With over 1,300 completions now, we’re building something here that could give a whole new insight into what it means to be a woman today and how women are coping with the constant demands of society, or as I prefer to call it coercive control.?

Share the Good Girl Quiz with just one woman you know


Can you forward the link to the Good Girl Quiz to just one woman you know??

We’d like to get our data set up to 2,000 completions, which means we’ve got more women’s voices to draw on, giving us a much clearer picture of the range of ways coercive control tactics are impacting women’s everyday lives.

In fact, if every person reading this asked one woman each, we’d smash 2,000 out of the park! How about 5,000 completions?!?

Here’s something you can copy and post super quick into WhatsApp or onto social media.

Complete this free quiz to see how society's expectations of women might be impacting your life and choices www.goodgirlquiz.co.uk

You might even want to share what you got in your quiz, did you know I’m a Rebel Woman? 26% of us are, it’s a journey. (I do have some areas where I’m a navigating women). Navigating Women are 56% and Good Girls are 18% - so there’s certainly work to be done!

Thank you for being part of the GGD gang, and for sharing the quiz with your nearest and dearest!
