How ‘single woke females’ are reshaping the US
New York Post ^ | January 17, 2023 | Joel Kotkin and Samuel J. Abrams

Soccer Moms are giving way to Single Woke Females — the new “SWFs” — as one of the most potent voting blocs in American politics.

Unmarried women without children have been moving toward the Democratic Party for several years, but the 2022 midterms may have been their electoral coming-out party, as they proved the chief break on the predicted Republican wave. While married men, women and unmarried men broke for the GOP, CNN exit polls found that 68% of unmarried women voted for Democrats.

The Supreme Court’s August decision overturning Roe v. Wade was certainly a special factor in the midterms, but longer-term trends show that single, childless women are joining African Americans as the Democrats’ most reliable supporters.

Their power is growing thanks to the demographic winds. The number of never-married women has grown from about 20% in 1950 to more than 30% in 2022, while the percentage of married women has declined from almost 70% in 1950 to under 50% today. Overall, the percentage of married households without children has declined from 37% in 1976 to 21% today.

A new Institute for Family Studies analysis  of 2020 Census data found that one in six women do not have children by the time they reach the end of their childbearing years, up from one in 10 in 1990. Single adult women now total some 42 million, comparable to the key African-American voting bloc (46 million), while vastly larger than key groups like labor-union members (14 million) or college students (20 million).

The Pew Research Center noted by 2019 that since 1960, single-person households in the United States have grown from 13% to 27%. Many, particularly women, are not all that keen on finding a partner.

It’s hard to explain fully. There’s a *huge* amount of teen-mid 20s females going fully tranny.

That’s the thing that’s hardest for me to understand. Maybe their genitals just don’t work, that seems to afflict a lot of women in general now at any age.

Mostly because feminism has destroyed them as marriage material.

Mostly because feminism has destroyed them as marriage material??? Really? Or is it that women don’t want to marry useless men? I saw a statistic today where 60% of young men are looking for a women to date and 30% of young wome are looking for a man to date. Clearly the men on this site believe it is because women are the problem. Ever consider that the problem is men? No, of course not, just repeal the 19th Amendment, put women back in the kithen and all will be well. I am a conservative women, and I can’t believe the ignorance of so many men here. Men who just can’t understand why young women hate the Republican party.

“Single Woke Female”. So is that how we now say she’s ugly?

Repeal the 19th Amendment.

That idea has its supporters. More men would vote to repeal the 19th Amendment than the 17th Amendment, but more women vote...

Hard to argue with that.

I know you really believe this, and you just can’t understand why young women despise the Republican party and conservatives. Gosh, why oh why are young women so unhappy? What could it be? Oh, that’s right, it’s because they want to go back to not having property rights, not having voting rights, not having the right to become doctors and lawyers. Maybe the problem with young women is the young men and their mediocrity. Just a thought.

It only reinforces the stereotype of Republican men that the left use’s against us.

I find it interesting that some people are fine with denying women the right to vote based on their sex, but don’t call for the repeal of the 19th amendment.

Honestly, if they are going to be in favor of denying people the right to vote because they don’t like the way they vote based on demographics, they need to realize that sword cuts both ways.

What are they going to say when the democrats gain the upper hand and deny white men the right to vote based on their sex and skin color because they don’t like the way they vote?

Would they like to be on the receiving end of that themselves, I wonder?

After all, history shows us what a utopia this world would be if only men were in charge and women had no say politically, right?

The fastest way to drive them berserk (and you should) is for a man to mention how Asian women make much better wives because they are submissive and obedient. Not that it’s true, but the AWFLs believe it, and you should rub it in every chance you get.

Ever notice why Euros don’t vacation in the USA very much? There is nothing for them to see here but ugly buildings, ugly fat people and strip malls. That is how they see us.

Let’s split the difference and agree that many if not most young women and young men are not marriage material. Issue is the single beings who lack a Y chromosome love to vote for the left.

Many women seem to seek to have a surrogate husband in the government through ‘jobs programs’ and other forms of disguised welfare so they can have the benefits, so-called, of marriage and the opportunity to lead what used to be called the swinging singles lifestyle.

Truth is a successful marriage and a family requires a great deal of subordinating individual interests to the welfare of the family. A good family requires a huge time commitment and real unselfishness. Much of what has to be done is not much adult fun and a lot can be positively boring. That is what commitment means and people born in the last 30+ often have no idea of what being willing subordinate selfish desires to the greater good is at all.

I regularly counsel young white men to try and date East Asian and lighter skinned Latin women. Their cultures still are pretty strongly family oriented and young American women simply are not.

I am sure “scientists” are working on an artificial womb. When that happens all bets are off.

They are. However, being a parent involves a huge commitment in time, energy and money however the child gets here.

Ok, so an artificial womb makes things complicated. So do we get rid of men or women? We would no longer really need men expect for a few “donors” and some to kill spiders....
