Why are younger women so left wing?

[Anonymous]

Oveton's Window. Young women still have similar policy views as their Gen X mothers. Conservatives have moved over the cliff in terms of ideology and hard right views: outlaw abortion and contraception, mass denaturalization, etc. - these are RADICAL policies.

Some interesting highlights:
-From 2001-2007, an average of 28% of women aged 18-29 identified as liberal, three percentage points higher than young men.
-From 2008-2016, an average of 32% of young women identified as liberal, five points higher than for young men.
-From 2017-2024, an average of 40% of young women identified as liberal, 15 points higher than for young men.
-Young Women have become more liberal regardless of college status

For the cohort of younger women, there is a strong correlation between progressive views and mental illness.

There is plentiful research showing conservatives are afraid to admit mental illness and seek treatment for it due to stigma concerns, though they still experience it

ironic, a conservative citing social science research to make their point.

Correct. I have a lot of MAGA family members and a number of them have glaring mental health issues which are going untreated.

Huh? I am liberal making the point that the conservative trying to say that liberalism is more associated with mental illness is BS. Conservatives experience it the same just are afraid to admit it.

The guy that went to Comet pizza with his AR 15 because he believed there were kids being kept in the basement...and then killed himself by suicide by police at a later date (i.e., he was killed by the police back in NC because he purposely pointed a weapon at the cop wanting to be shot and killed)...was certainly mentally ill.

Does anyone who legitimately believes in Qanon or all these other crazy conspiracies qualify as sane?

Doesn’t it concern you that there are so many mentally ill people in this country?
Maybe it’s a reflection on our society? And no, progressives/liberals do not have the answer in fact they have greatly contributed to the illnesses, but they refuse to acknowledge this.

And so we continue on, while a civil war is playing out for power, between two elite privileged groups, the DNC and the GOP.

Huh? Tell me what conservatives have done to improve access to mental illness? Jack sh*t.

Also what have liberals done to contribute to mental illness? Conservatives prefer to pretend mental illness does not exist (including denying they, themselves, have it because they fear the stigma of it per the research above, and also being so denying of their own mental illness, they won't seek help).

Except when we have a school shooting, in which case they acknowledge mental illness, and still do not want to do anything about it, ever, at all.

You meant to say DNC and RNC. The GOP includes regular everyday people who identify as Republicans. The struggle for power in this country is between the regular everyday American citizens (the 98.5%) and the RNC/DNC with their wealthy mega-donors. Once we shut down or force massive reform on the RNC and DNC, we can get back to normal right vs left political talking points.
