    42 percent of womem voters voted for Trump. I don’t see you making sweeping statements about them.

    Also

    35 percent of eligible male voters didn’t even vote.

    Among those 18-29, a full 50 percent didn’t vote.

    Among men 14-17, exactly 0 percent voted.

      well at least thats still an actual minority, instead of a majority vote like the male side.

      and yes you’re correct the older the person the more skew for trump, which goes back to my point that plenty of these old fucks heard locker room talk about peeping on young girls, and did not bat an eye

      maybe you’re a young guy who is honestly underestimating the misogyny of your elders

          You think Im judging all men but I’m only judging men who spread PUA bullshit, which they have responsibility for. Sorry you can’t get it.

                I’m 28.

                So you’re an honest to God adult judging people under the age of 25 for things they not only had no part in, but were largely perpetuated by people who are most likely dead?

                  I’m an honest to god old women on the internet who has been in tech spaces since the 90s, so I have seen (and felt) the impact of these ideologies very personally, and yes I hold people over the age of 18 responsible for their own actions. If they believe in PUA bullshit then yes I judge them for it. Are you shocked?

                  Either you’re adults or you’re not. I can’t afford to coddle these young men anymore, it’s damaging to me and all women - and coddling them hasn’t helped. And the people perpetuating the things aren’t dead, they’re passing the baton - to these ‘young men’.

                  Wake the fuck up to the fact that like, 100 rich guys are essentially slowly enslaving most of humanity, and THAT is your problem, and stop attacking women. We’re running out of time and I’m out of patience.

                  Thanks for coming to my ted talk.
