She also couldn't articulate a single program of her own. The abortion matter fell far behind but it was simply that -that abortion is returned to the states for the states to decide. THAT is all!

You are pathetically ignorant.

For God's sake please educate yourself and yourself about civics and federalism. Dibbs (and what Trump proposes is simply a return to the states of priority issues (including Ed isdues) as our founding fathers intended. we are a Republic, not a democracy. States can handle these issues better and with less waste because the states are closer to their people than the federal govt. This is history/civics 101. You are destroying your daughter by feeding into the lies and hate of the liberals who phrase it as "women's health". You can always get your abortion. Go to a neighboring state. Planned Parenthood will drive you. Go out in country. Use responsible birth control. Read the wall street journal and actually LEARN about real issues instead of the scream of liberals. Stop with the whining and pretend issues. Trump never said he wants a federal ban. google it (I'm not a Trumper but am fed up with the insane hysteria on this echo chamber -you are harming yourselves and the loved ones around you through this immature behavior. Start reading the commentary about what went wrong for you. Even the liberal WaPo is laying it out day by day.

Doesn’t sound like they are targeting girls now though.

Trump is the cool thing to do for boys right now. They have made a fraternal culture with young men. You can see it with all of the trump hats and the flags and Truck decorations. It feels like you are part of a club.

Yup. Guys do like their flags & hats/hoods.

He is great at branding I’ll give him that one. I probably will never look at a red hat the same way again.

Most young men I know, quite a few who voted for Trump, are pro-choice. It was not a primary reason for their vote.

They tolerated his sexual assaults. They tolerated his abuse towards women. They tolerated that Trump is fine with dozens of states in this country calling 20% of their female population baby killers.

My 17 yr old daughter in fcps reports the same. The girls do try to find out what side the boys are on, just to be safe. And yes. some here will call us paranoid, but better be safe than sorry.

You know it’s funny… what I hear from Trump voters is how tired they are of being called stupid, racist, ignorant, etc. And we can debate whether or not clearly articulated statements have come out of that campaign that would fit those adjectives. But here’s OP on this thread, explaining that her daughter feels alienated from many of her male peers. She’s correctly noting that a significant proportion of the cohort her daughter would date is embracing a party that has been openly hostile to women. There is no debate about that. And in response, this poster calls OP’s daughter is spoiled, insufferable baby.

This is one of the main reasons I have such trouble taking many Trump voters seriously. It’s impossible to have conversations with people who stomp their feet about something and then turn around and do that exact same thing in a conversation where no one asked them to. Nobody asked anybody to weigh in with this level of vitriol for OP‘s daughter. OP didn’t start a thread insulting anyone. In fact, she started a thread lamenting her concern for someone she cares about, her child. Which is something that any voter of any demographic could relate to. And yet, we have an entire thread of people lobbing insults at both women, a la the poster above. It’s really something to behold.

You know what's really something to behold? The fact that you completely ignore the over-the-top melodrama and hyperbole of the OP's post. No doubt, she has passed on her gift for exaggeration and drama to her daughter. Let's take a look at the OP again:

"My 25 yr old daughter, who just moved to new city with a new job, has lost her faith in men. After America chose a misogynistic rapist to lead our country, she believes there are no men worth dating. She’s scared for her future and wants nothing to do with men. I am trying to convince her that there are supportive kind men out there (including her own father). Can you share examples of young men fighting for women’s rights?"

Does this sound like a stable person to you?
