Gee, to OP's question, perhaps he should read the daily flow of right wing sexist vile on this forum. It may make you less ignorant of the message y'all send on a daily basis.

Identity politics. Dems tell every group that's not white males that they are victims.

I also think by virtue of being in an identity group that they are more inclined to be collective vs men who are more inclined to be more individualist.

Because women think with their heart more then men . Plus democrats play identity politics and put everyone above white men . What these women don’t under stand is they are voting against their own sons . This is something that republicans should push . Any good white mother with a son would think twice about voting democrat if they thought about what they are doing to their son .

Break it down by married v. unmarried women. Unmarried women are a very left wing group in general for many reasons.

This emotion vs. logic stuff screams to me as bullshite.

I think it's more to do with women wanting a stronger fiscal safety net (plus abortion rights). I don't agree with it in the least, but I think it's a perfectly logical position for many women to take.

ETA: It's why you see such a dramatic gap in voting behavior between married and unmarried women.

Anyone can tell anyone anything. Doesn't mean they'll immediately believe it.

Seems like there has to be something a lot stronger than this accusation to drive voting patterns that span decades.

Sounds like you're emotional and not rational like people are talking about here.

Men have a stronger sense of self sufficiency and independence. The short story:
Women: Take care of me.
Men: Leave me the frick alone.

I think it comes down to the fact that women, no matter how much they say they are “independent, don’t need a man, etc.” will always want someone or something to take care of them. It’s the way it’s always been.

In ancient times, men were the protectors/providers. Women still want that no matter how much they say otherwise. But now the protector/provider is government in a lot of ways.

Women are more prone to emotional voting.

single mothers in particular vote D because they need a provider for basic needs because a man isn't there to help. So they are more willing to accept bigger Govt as a provider
