This. I'm flattered when a male co-worked tells me I my hair looks nice or my outfit is nice. Those who think that's negative is any way really do need to get a life.

Did you think "rape"' was a euphemism for "compliment"? Because it wasn't. You voted for the guy found by a court of law to have raped, not complimented hair, raped. Forceable unwanted penetration. Does that flatter you too?

That group was more likely to vote for Stein. I wish I remember where I red that. I do recall someone asking a protester at the Harris rally who she was voting for and they were all Stein fans. So I don't think the protest vote went so much to Trump.

I do think the Democrats would be wise to take more seriously all the votes that went to Trump. I would not write it all off as ignorance, racism, misogyny , etc.

Most of us normal women feel the same way.

What does any of the above have to do with this election? Seriously, what are you talking about? Men complimenting you? How did this come up in the election exactly?

If you go back on the thread you will know why it came up...not directly related to election...but indirectly...tied to the LWNJs who actually think it's inappropriate to say benign compliments to co-workers in the workplace. Proof that the far left has gone too far left with all the PC sh*t.

Not at all what I was talking about and FWIW I voted Harris. But I still think benign compliments to all co-workers (regardless of gender) such as "your hair looks nice" or "that color looks good on you" or "looking sharp today" is perfectly normal and those that don't think it's normal have serious issues. I for one will continue to compliment and enjoy receiving compliments.

Also, young women have brains and are also concerned about national issues like the economy and illegal immigration.

+1

I voted for Harris, but if it hadn’t been for Jan 6, I would have voted for Trump because of these issues.

Competing against biological males in sports is more concerning to you than possibly being denied appropriate medical care during/after a miscarriage? Only one of those two things can kill you and leave any older children of yours without a mother. The number of women who want or need to terminate a pregnancy is far higher than the number of biological female athletes competing against transgender women.

All states, every single one, allow for miscarriage care and abortions when needed in medical emergencies to save the mother, so stop with the misinformation.

Tell that to the women who died from sepsis because their unviable fetus still had a heartbeat

Cases of medical malpractice even for pregnant women existed prior to the overturn of Roe Vs Wade. We will always have to handle cases of malpractice - it’s a leading cause of death in the US. But again, treatment of miscarriages has always been allowed and that won’t change, neither will a mother’s ability to get an abortion to save her life.

There’s the law as it’s intended in theory and then there’s the law as it is actually applied in real life circumstances. You can write these cases off as malpractice, but these bans incentivize malpractice over intervening when a pregnant woman’s health goes south. Some women have already died because of the type of callous disregard you’re exhibiting in this thread. Accepting more malpractice, incentivized by the law, is not pro life.

No one accepts malpractice. We all want these cases to result in consequences for the doctors that make terrible calls. That’s true for pregnancy care as well as all the other forms of medical malpractice that exist. It’s idiotic to suggest that someone “accepts” doctor error.

The family members of some of these women, who were with them at the hospital, say that doctors said they couldn’t intervene.

If in a few years, when we have the data, there’s been a significant uptick in deaths of pregnant women due to sepsis in states with abortion bans, but no increase in sepsis deaths for any other population, will you admit you were wrong?

That was not in the pro publica reports. Regardless, those family members can start a malpractice lawsuit just like any other family member who has experienced medical error. And no, there has been no significant uptick. You’re pulling that out of your butt.

We don’t have the data yet to determine whether there’s been an uptick in deaths due to sepsis in pregnant women. The TX committee that reviews these cases to determine whether they were preventable hasn’t even finished reviewing 2021’s deaths yet. I asked you if you would admit you were wrong in the future *if* it turns out that there was an uptick in these deaths that corresponds with the implementation of these bans. And I’m still asking you that.

But by God if a Democrat takes a position that you are even lukewarm about, they lose votes and never get them back... So basically, a Democrat can never take a position on anything for fear of alienating voters for life and so you're stuck in this weird limbo and are held to a completely different standard than Republicans

This is it exactly. Young people would rather not vote than vote for a Democratic candidate who doesn't tick every box on their magic wish list of qualities/ideals.

I think the only way to fix it would to be with a younger candidate who 'speaks' their language and who can motivate them.

You don't want to hear this, but Democrats need to find someone who not only will "speak" their language and motivate them, but someone who is strong enough to lead with common sense and moderation. No more extremist talk. No more my way or the high way talk. No more nonsense that only appeals to 1-2% of the base. Learn to read the room and cater to the majority of what people want when it comes to key issues. Stop dismissing people's perceptions and beliefs on crime, economy, illegal immigration, etc.

Sir or Ma'am, that wAs Harris.

If that were true Harris would have won. The fact that you continue believing this is shocking and will only lead to future losses.

But a Stein vote was a vote for Trump because that’s how numbers work. Same for everyone who stayed home . Either Trump or Harris was going to win. Every non vote mattered quite a bit. Harris lost by 2%.

How many times do you need to be told? We young people said it over and over and over: we will NOT vote for anyone who does not support Palestine and stopping the genocide of its people.

You guys decided to FA and now you're in the FO of what we said.

LMAO. Have you read today about Netanyahu’s new plan that is endorsed by Trump? What did you think was going to happen after their constant phone calls during the campaign? Israel is going to mow down Gaza and build condos for Israeli's. FAFO. You are so ignorant you should not be allowed to vote.

Well they are now saying, "your body, their choice". If you think that women fought hard for decades against sexual harassment in the workplace because of a hair or blouse, you are an idiot. More like I like the way that blouse is showing off those headlights or breast, etc. If you've never experienced sexual harassment in the workplace, "you're welcome".

First of all the young men who are Republican are infinitely more attractive than the liberal ones. Just in my workplace, the Harris-voting young men were all either gay or obese man-children. The Trump-voting young men are muscular and masculine and obviously young women eat that up.
Secondly there was a big thing with the Covid vaccine. A couple years ago my boss announced who had not gotten their shot yet (total HIPAA violation) and it was all young women. They were worried about their periods stopping and other side effects they'd heard about from friends. Supposedly there was going to be a mass firing of them in April 2023 but nothing ended up happening. Reading about this sent them into some interesting corners of the internet.
Finally, yes, cultural issues. I can't go into detail without this post getting deleted but we had not one but two coworkers who caused a lot of drama and got away with murder because of their identity. A bunch of young women confessed to me that they thought the whole thing was a sham.

My Harris-voting young adult nephew had a young woman be very surprised he voted for Harris “because you are good-looking!”
