How many mums really follow American politics?

[ramblingfool]

OR are just amused by American politics?

Probably the same amount as dads.

Eleventy-one mums, and thrice on Sundays.

Would be interesting to see data on that. I have my doubts.

Definitely eleventy-two dads, I know because they told me.

That's an odd question.
Are you saying that because we are mums we have less interest or more interest?
What is it about our parental status that you believe is a factor?

We are all too busy with kittens and knitting for all that political stuff. Leave that to the men!

And eleventy-two is more than eleventy-one. So more dads.

901.7
Sixty billion
Eleventy
A mum a mum a mum and a half,half a mum and a mum

You have your doubts. Do expand.

But wait, the Sundays! Quadruple time in Sundays as well so super biggly interest.

Some mums are American!

I know a few mums. Few follow American politics. Not saying none do, just not many. No data to back that up, but in conversation, they rather talk about the latest gossip. Just sayin'.

Wouldn't that make them moms?

But are their kittens interested in American politics? I think we should be told.

Men in conversation: sports and politics.
Mums in conversations: kids and gossip.

Dogs maybe, not kittens.

Someone is keeping the data from us. It’ll be the Ragdolls, sneaky little fuckers, I’ve never liked them.

At least the mums have the priorities in the right place.

Loads of my friends and me

For goodness' sake, we've just been through this! All of the mums and dads follow it, because they have a stake in the future. It's just the childless cat ladies, of all sexes, who can afford to ignore it.

I find this a strange question. I'm a mum and very interested in politics, including American politics. I was interested in politics before becoming a mum and that hasn't changed.
Of course millions of people (including mums, child free women, dads, child free men) have no interest in politics. I'm not sure why you single out mums?

Oh dear

Maybe you haven't given them the secret signal so stick to the "safe" topics of kids and gossip.

If I don't have a man to do all the important thinking for me, am I allowed to be interested in American politics? Just asking...

Maybe just the women you know OP? I have many female friends who are interested in politics.
