This is not my personal opinion, I know Gen Z men who voted for Harris. But the voter demographics really speak for themselves, and maybe now people will look at the radicalization of young men as a serious (but solvable) issue.

    I guess the lonelyness epedemic plays a part in it which hits younger people harder then older ones and mans stronger then woman.

      Indeed, and it’ll get worse. Plenty of women (on popular dating sites, at least) have already been swearing off dating Republicans. Now, with a higher likelihood of a national abortion ban, don’t be surprised if straight women become even choosier. After all, every man we think of sleeping with must now also be viewed as a potential father.

      Forget about casual flings or one-night-stands. Why would I risk a lifetime of supporting an entire human being just to have one night of fun?

      And that’s only for straight women. Bisexual/pansexual women can choose to straight up stop dating men entirely.

      In a lot of ways, lonely young men who voted for Trump just shot themselves in the dick.

        Straight women can choose not to date men either. Of course I’m older but quite enjoy living alone.

        You mean to tell me that using birth control or even practicing abstinence is the best way to avoid getting pregnant and removes the need to use abortion as birth control?!

        And that perhaps having reckless one night stands all the time is risky and probably not a great idea?!!

        The lonelyness epedemic is not only about sex, lack of friendships and romantic interactions outside of sex play a huge part (arguably a bigger one because sex can be compensated with porn, but a hug can’t).
