I think women are more likely to respond to the “feel good” rhetoric and the phony compassion of the Left. They are less likely to think in a straight line to the inevitable statist results. I could be wrong, and all I have is anecdotal evidence. But there must be some reason for the advantage the Democrats have among women.
What about the fact that so many women without men are looking for someone to take care of them? I think Nature —and the women’s own crappy choices — put women in that position.
I have six grown children. I must say, when I was pregnant and taking care of little ones, I craved security. Fortunately, I had a good husband and a stable marriage, so I was still a conservative.
And now that my children are grown, I mightly resent paying enough in taxes every year to support two or three skanks who can’t keep their knees together.
I’ve seen enough welfare in my life to know that the sperm donor deadbeats like it that way as well.
They get all the drugs and sex they want from these skanks for free while they live with them. The skanks collect welfare and support the sperm donors who are living with them.
It’s a neat little system for the guys. They don’t have to work, they have no responsibility, no pressure, no accountability, nothing beyond the immediate gratification of their hormonal impulses.
When someone expects anything out of them, they’re on to the next tramp, leaving behind a trail of progeny for the state to support because they are too lazy and irresponsible to do it themselves.
Men (for lack of a better term) like that are going to vote as liberal as the rest to keep up the gravy train. It’s not about emotionalism. It’s about personal responsibility and values.
Because of the current social conditions, that's true. It wasn't the case when the marriage rate was high and the divorce and out-of-wedlock births were low.
As I stated previously, it wasn't giving the vote to women, that is responsible for the fact that currently a majority of women vote for Democrats, it was the sexual revolution and the welfare state. I resent the implication of those who would now deny all women the right to vote if they could, that women are primarily to blame for the threat of socialism now looming over all our heads.
