I've read a bit on the sexed differences in politics before. The article may be a bit overgeneralising, but the phenomenon itself is worth considering.

Why do so many women support gender ideology, for example?

The lyrics, join the caravan of love, popped into my mind as I read the title of this thread! :-)

I think lots of women are conflict avoidant and it’s easier and more shiny to cower behind a “be kind and use pronouns” banner than to actually have any genuine integrity.

Suicidal empathy?

I can understand why so many young women support gender ideology because I remember my own youth and how desperate I was to fit in and particularly to gain approval as ‘one of the lads’. It also took me a couple of decades to accept and come to terms with the fact that men, as a group, were stronger and faster than me.

Older women - don’t understand it at

Because women are socialised almost from birth to prioritise the feelings of others, in a way that I think most men aren't. The TRA movement takes advantage of that, by pushing the "be kind" message so strongly.
