if you think simple sexism wasn’t a major factor for a sizable portion of America, my friend, you’re out of touch.
You need to go out to the country/mountain areas. I was out there when Hillary was running. My family are all red voters. Hell, my grandmother told me she would never vote for a woman as president. Paraphrasing her “Women are too emotional and what about once a month with hormones”. Yes, that’s a driving factor in A LOT of rural voters. Simple sexism.
If sexism wasn’t a major factor in America, we wouldn’t have the massive incel problem we have. We wouldn’t have the constant “woke feminism” backlash bullshit.
Pretending America isn’t sexist and isn’t contributing reasion why Hillary/Kamala lost is willfully ignorant.
Those people already weren’t going to vote for a Democrat…women are winning high ranking positions in what most people would consider much more culturally machismo-prominent cultures than the US
If conservatives in Britain can elect a woman as the leader of their country in the 1980s, then the US can elect a woman in the 2020s. We have a problem with misogyny, but I refuse to believe that even though enough conservative Britains could overcome their prejudice to get a woman elected in the 1980s, progressives in the US can’t somehow manage it in the 2020s.
Reality check. A few points swing would have resulted in Hillary of Kamala winning. These were close elections. I’m sure sexism was a factor, but their unpopular policies and corporate fakery were what really killed them.
