No woman will vote for him. That is literally a slap in the face to women. How discriminating to all women.
NO WE WILL NOT GO BACK.

(61,033 posts)He's so out of touch, still with the "housewife" inferences about women being the little stay-at-home homemaker.
His thinking is so antequated.

Quitting was her only option. She is one of 865,000 women to leave the workforce last month.
Thats four times the number of men who left the paid workforce

In September, as the school year started, 865,000 women dropped out of the labor force or four times the number of men who dropped out according to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday. By comparison, the number of working men in the United States fell by 216,000.
Women are being disproportionately hit by this economic downturn related to the pandemic. But specific groups of women are having the most challenging time women in service sector jobs which are disproportionately are women of color, and mothers, in particular mothers of young children, said Marianne Cooper, a sociologist and author of Cut Adrift: Families in Insecure Times.
Way more women and way more mothers appear to be dropping out of the workforce mostly because theyre driven out, she said. For people who have some other income source, whether its their partner or they have some savings, they may just make the personal decision that they have to stop working for some period of time to get their kids through this.
