"Trump's Promise to Young Men: I Am Your Retribution Against Women"

[Quiet Em]

These were not simply off-the-cuff remarks; they were very deliberate. It’s all part of Trump’s electoral strategy to Make America Masculine Again. He knows he’s losing women by massive margins, so he’s going after the men—especially, but not exclusively, aggrieved young men who feel they’ve been robbed of their male birthright to power. Trump is giving them license to say whatever they want about women, and his campaign is an implicit promise to give them control over women, including their bodies.

This is the pop-culture definition of toxic masculinity, and the crudest, most aggressive misogyny we’ve seen from Trump—which is truly saying something, given that he’s an adjudicated rapist who was caught on tape bragging that he can grab women’s vaginas without consequence. But this, perhaps even more than his reprehensible immigrant bashing and fascist overtones, is Trump’s closing argument: to put women back in their place and restore men to total supremacy in America.

2. Just last week, he was the "Protector" of women. Now he's telling the boyz he's gonna punish us for being women?

How big of a jump in ER visits or battered women will there be soon?

Any of you veterans with some teaching skills might find an increased market for self defense for women classes.

7. The war on women never ends--it's exhausting. Each generation of females has to fight it. over and over again, forever.

8. The Guardian has a good article on this

“The Republican party right now is doing a really wonderful job of faking relationships,” he says. The emails he receives from the Trump campaign – which he signed up to for research purposes – often start with exuberant personal messages such as “I need you” or “I can’t do it without you”. “It’s ingenuine,” Wilder says, recognising that some in his congregation – which splits about 50/50 on party lines – have “fallen into the trap … Men’s health is something we overlook in America. Men want to be part of something – to feel like they belong.”

Young men have a sense of anomie, feeling unconnected to society. They are oppressed by the economic system, and organs of propaganda are directing those feelings to chosen targets on the left, the "Others". Divide and conquer. The remedy is to give them a feeling of worth - real innate worth, not the paleo-phony "worth" of the Right.

They are not the enemy. The Musks and Thiels and Bozoes and Morlochs are.

15. Without women they would be lost

They are just mad they can't boss women around anymore and treat women any kind of way without repercussions.

[PeaceWave]

16. Trump intends to send women back to a time when they were considered chattel...

the veritable property of a man, unable to rebuke or deny him. Trump is gambling that this will be of appeal to every guy who's ever been rejected by some woman. Despite this fact, approximately 40% of women in the country will end up voting for Trump. I don't get it.
