On the one hand, I LOVE it; on the other hand, I'm questioning why I love it.
As an anthropology major who attended a women's college, I can't tell you how much thought that I have put into considering what it means to "Be a man" versus what it means to "Be a woman".
What it comes down to --and I know that no one here will disagree with me--is being a responsible adult who values integrity. The MAGA crowd are driven by their ego needs. They love Trump because he tells them that they are special and supports their grievances. He-- and they-- are children clinging to their comforts and fighting against the painful challenges of change. . . Which the entire universe is founded upon.
So, by all means, I support Vice President Harris. Sometimes change comes about quickly and sometimes it moves at a glacial pace. To be a man-- or a woman-- means facing reality and trying the wrest the best solutions out of our circumstances in order to serve the greater good for as many people as possible.
I guess what I am saying to myself here, as much as anyone else, is that the opposite of "Being a man" is NOT "Being a woman". It is being a child.
