The Reasons Young Women Embrace the Left Do Not Reflect Well on These Women
American Greatness ^ | 17 Sep, 2024 | Dennis Prager

Since 2016, young American women have become significantly more liberal due to emotional responses to gender-related events that are largely superficial and detrimental.

Last week, The New York Times featured an article titled: “How the Last Eight Years Made Young Women More Liberal.”

According to every poll, since 2016, there has been an unprecedented political/social gender gap between young American women and men.

Here is how the Times reported it:

“In 2001, young men and women had similar political ideologies. … Then, around 2016, something shifted, a new analysis shows. Women ages 18 to 29 became significantly more liberal than the previous generation of young women. Today, around 40 percent identify as liberal, compared with just 19 percent who say they’re conservative. The views of young men—who are more likely to be conservative than liberal—have changed little. …”

“Sixty-seven percent of women 18 to 29 supported Vice President Kamala Harris in a New York Times/Siena College poll in six swing states last month, compared with 40 percent of young men. Fifty-three percent of young men in those states backed Donald J. Trump, compared with 29 percent of young women.”

And why did this massive leftward shift of young women occur?

“(Because) the race became in part a referendum on gender—Mrs. Clinton running to be the first female president, Mr. Trump calling her a ‘nasty woman’ and bragging about sexual assault on the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape … Seeing someone like yourself in office can spur political involvement, political scientists have found, especially for young women.”

If these reasons for young women moving to the left beginning in 2016 are correct (abortion is not mentioned; this was six years before Roe v. Wade was overturned), America has a generation of many unimpressive young women.

Let’s analyze the three big reasons:...

It is an "emotion winning vs. logic" problem. And the left plays on emotion to deceive people.

The indoctrination is insidious. Magazines aimed at adolescent girls used to feature make-up and dating tips.

Now the same magazines offer tips on "anal sex". They gush over Hillary Clinton. The owners of these publications would have been jailed for this in the 1950s. It is unthinkable.

These women aren’t liberal!!!! In many ways they are the opposite - they Marxist collectivists that support totalitarians.

When will the right start identifying the enemy correctly, instead of constantly giving them cover as openminded thinkers that support individual differences. Drives me crazy.

I serious doubt any of them has read Marx.
Groucho or Karl.
If they would even watch a video about Karl Marx they would likely be grossed out.
They are second hand Marxist.
Media water down romantic version of satan inspired Marx.

When adjusted for marital status, the statistics would no doubt reveal that young women today are no more liberal than they were 50 years ago.

Yeah but it makes it lots easier for young men to score at nightclubs or colleges or wherever they work or....anywhere! :)

How’s that working out for the country?

On the flip side, most men had respect for women and wouldnt take advantage of them at one time.

The times, they are a’changin

Some movie maker should do a quality accurate pic on the lives of Marx, Lenin, Mao and Stalin.

Youtube is full of videos of women sobbing men will not approach them or talk to them. Many of these young women have become self-absorbed head cases. What man wants that trouble in his life? They are drama princesses who become drama queens. Men should just stick to riding roller coasters at carnivals. You can survive those wild rides.

Now, these women are unabashedly pro-murder of their own flesh.

Not just crazy, but
KRAZY!

Private behavior matters. Private remarks matter. This includes sexual misconduct.

Anyone who denies that needs to shut up about JFK, LBJ, and Bill Clinton, not to mention innumerable other people on the left — Senators, congressmen, governors, big donors, the Harvey Weinstein types in Hollywood, the NBA players, rock stars, and actors, the big donors, the corrupt corporate moguls, the sleazoid leftist intellectuals and academics, etc.

This isn’t limited to sexual misconduct, btw. We also have innumerable examples of public figures saying one thing privately and lying publicly on core issues. Of course this sort of thing is fair game for criticism.

Is there anyone here who hasn’t rained hell and damnation down upon such people on the left? Of course the democrats are going to hammer Trump’s sexual conduct and sexual boasting (which are two different things) as hard as they can. And of course it is going to have an impact.

Vetting of candidates still happens at lower levels, but even there it has taken a beating. We have several congresscritters who out to be taken out with the trash. And let’s not get started on the churches and universities. The fish rots from the head.

It goes to the media sources from whom they have become captives and quit thinking outside that bubble.

Not mentioned is the high percentage of liberal women in this age group who are suffering mental illness. Feminism is literally driving them crazy.

ps

When you are a star you can do anything is true. Countless women would put out for a star. Women know this. The feigned shock is purely political. The whole #METOO movement was political. Now we only get woke movies made by talentless producers, directors and actors.

Between broken borders, the invasion of millions of Zombies granted credit cards, cell phones, drivers licenses and a smorgasboard of welfare entitlements, international criminal gangs and assassinators allowed to run loose on our streets, lawfare aimed at imprisoning political opponents, billions of taxpayer dollars gifted to foreign Satanic regimes to foment nuclear global war, rotten stinking garbage euphemistically called music, child gender mutilation, the rise of minority cultural dominance, “press 16” for English, 184 different languages, and infanticide, this country makes Sodom & Gomorrah look like the Holy Land. It would be a stretch to believe the guy upstairs hasn’t noticed, and that he hasn’t got a plan for us.

Reasons one two and three should be absent fathers. Girls raised by fathers who care about who they are aren't like this.
People need to face that our culture is toxic. Dads in particular shield their kids from it. Without him, all males are evil and everywhere is unfair and unloving.
