Ellen's description of herself suggests she aligns with characteristics often associated with younger, possibly unmarried or newly married individuals without children, which is best represented by the "young bachelors and newlyweds" category. This group is more likely to have modern sex-role attitudes, engage in exercise, and consume more alcohol compared to those in other family life cycle stages, who may have more responsibilities and less free time.
