No abortion!
No birth control!
No maternity leave!
No health care for your child!
No health care for you!

If you're raped, too bad, it's your fault - it's a pre-existing condition anyway. And after birth, the rapist "father" has visitation RIGHTS!

Why would any woman vote R?

1. Excellent question.

[TheBlackAdder]

19. Since the mid-70s, a solid 45% of women have voted paternalistic--a number which doesn't change.

.

I took a Center for American Women and Politics class, which was perhaps the most enlightening college course.

This was in 2016, using current data.


No matter how much people question this, religion plays a key role with most, and this also includes supporting paternalism, especially with orthodox and evangelical crowds. This is the main reason why the ERA doesn't pass, because their vote along with their men are enough to prevent its passage.

6. Oh, I can give you a ton of reasons why

ALL of them point to horrible human qualities in a person.

11. My RW relatives (women) are authoritarians, racist, abortion hating, sneer at feminism, hate Libs,

love the embrace of cultism, want to elevate Dumpo to god-like status, hate Obama and really hate Hillary. Mostly they love to hate and sneer and be superior and want belong to an inside-information group ("we know more than you bitch&quot .

7. Because many white women voters feel that aligning themselves with a white supremacist patriarchy

is the best way to get the protection they crave without giving handouts to black people and other POC.

8. They vote the way their husbands tell them to.

Is it 2019 or 1919?

[leftieNanner]

15. Kinda the opposite in my house

We are both very progressive, but I'm the one who studies the candidates and the issues. We discuss things over a glass of wine. And then he votes the way I tell him to!

[blueinredohio]

20. Same here leftie. Very now and then my husband asks who I like better so he knows who to vote for.

Last election I made him a list.

[leftieNanner]

22. Love it!

A list would work. But we are 100 percent vote by mail in Oregon, so we can fill out our ballots together.

[demtenjeep]

17. if it were 1919 we wouldn't be voting

it hasn't been that long

[BigmanPigman]

18. I know...I was trying to be sarcastic....and did so poorly.

[UTUSN]

9. Or member of any other disadvantaged group: ethnic minority, gay, disabled, economically

10. It is one of the great mysteries of life.

I will never understand it.

[iluvtennis]

12. Preach it. Agree will never understand those who votes against their interests.

14. The Log Cabin Republicans

aka Sheep for Wolf
The Association of German National Jews

[rpannier]

13. Because those that have money can go elsewhere and are shielded from negative

repercussions of those decisions
Jesus. Always Jesus

[leftieNanner]

16. I know. And the Jesus thing makes me SMH

Jesus was a FLAMING liberal! I'm an Episcopalian (like Mayor Pete) and I hear the same Gospels as every other Christian and Jesus would definitely be voting Democratic.

[moondust]

21. Dunno.

Religious nuts following their cult leader?

Parents and grandparents were always die-hard Republicans (strong family tradition)?

Hanging on to white supremacy because their children will benefit from white privilege?

[roamer65]

23. Especially in Ohio.

[budkin]

24. Because values!!!

And Jesus!
