(583 posts)If you are on the 45 side and not the 0 side, of course you don't care about gender.
That's understandable.
What puzzles me is why you make so little effort to understand how it feels to some women: to be constantly seeing a parade of males in power everywhere, to be aware of history and the struggles we have undertaken for justice, and to have personally lived with all the threats and diminished status and outright discrimination that some of us women (I would say all, but I dont want to speak for all!) generally live with.
Of course not all women feel as I and Trumad do, and that's fine. We aren't a monolith. And (I have heard) it is also our prerogative to change our cute flighty minds.
But: any political aware male who simply dismisses this female viewpoint without a thought - "Why the fuck should anyone vote for a woman just because of 45-0; that's stupid!" - is a lousy liberal.
Please don't be that guy. Be a better guy
