Having Daughters Increases Parents’ Identification with the Republican Party

6. Deeply ingrained sexism in this culture

When, in fact, Republican policies are poisonous for everyone, but especially for women.

You can thank Democrats (and some decent Republicans) for Social Security (which helps elderly women especially), Medicare/Medicaid, the ACA, Title IX (which provides equal opportunity for women in education, among other things).

But there is deeply ingrained sexism in this culture, which tells us that women are still meant to be caretakers and having a career and actually enjoying sex are no-nos. Women are playthings for men and nothing more (at least among certain segments of the population); just look at the way they are portrayed in Hollywood. Look at how few women are top CEOs, or major players in science or technology.

This study may be entirely bullshit in terms of methodology, etc. I didn't read it. I'm just offering a likely explanation for the trend seen here.
