[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But the northeast has more Teslas(enjoy next 4 years) and lots of kids wearing $1800 Canada goose jackets thru May.[/quote]
The NE also has more liberal policies that young people tend to support.  And you've clearly not been to NYC in the spring.[/quote]

Younger people are more conservative. Times have changed, grandma.[/quote]

NP - young men are more conservative than past generations.  Young women are more liberal.  This is a global phenomenon, not just in the US.[/quote]

Boys mature slower than girls and are more susceptible to disinformation.

dp.. and I hate to say this, but they are also less compassionate.

I have a 19 yr old DS and 16 yr old DD.

DS said they couldn't vote for Trump because of how stupid he is, but he does lean a bit more conservatively than DD and is less compassionate than she is.  I can see this play out within their friendships.[/quote]

Anecdotal evidence, dummies.

I have a college Freshmen and a HS junior--both boys. Very emapthetic, very anti-MAGA/Trump.  They have always been self-sufficient (straight As w/ no prodding or need from 6th grade onward). They do community service and play a competitive sport year round. Their friends are just like them. They attend/ed an all-male HS and the stereotypes on this board just don't hold up.

Granted- neither had any interest in the south or southern universities. NE/midatlantic or West Coast.  [/quote]
Pratical. This is what I see with my sons and their friends. Neither are extreme in either direction.  They aren't toxic, but they also aren't bending in the wind. They can understand and accept all kinds.[/quote]
