What is Wrong with Female Voters?

Easy, Abortion rights. That is the biggest issue for most women, therefore, they vote for the democrats. So sad, but true.

"Goodness, most of the THIRTY-SOMETHING GUYS that my husband works with are single, and have no plans on marrying."

And this is the result of feminism and free sex. Guys have lost interest in marriage to these women.

Major ditto to your post. A news group (I'm assuming it was Fox News, since I boycott most others) did a study and found that single women tended to vote democrat, while married women voted republican. Single women seem to feel more strongly about their right to have an abortion, whereas with married women, the issue is generally moot. Single women view republicans as intruding on their right to choose -- just in case they should ever find themselves in such a situation.

In my way of thinking, murder is murder, whether it is three months prior to birth or one month after ... but then, that is just my view.

Now, that is true.

Here's the rule of thumb. If a woman insists on keeping her own last naame, run lke hell.

Thanks, I am always trying to tell people here that California is not as liberal as our reputation! It is only part of the state, and I think you know what part!

"If a woman insists on keeping her own last naame, run lke hell."

Another good one is the hyphenated name.

Many are ill informed. They don't know a wit about politics and they believe what they here from their local biased local broadcast "journalist". It's that simple.

Look for others to take their place?

I took your advice before you gave it. Wise decision on my part.

[Sir Percy Hot Spurs]

In the 1996 elections 63% of women that voted , voted for Klinton because they wanted to jump in the pad with him...It was on the media many times...Sir Percy Hot Spurs

"Wise decision on my part."

It is wise for all thinking men.

[kstewskis]

The biggest difference is single females that need a good man. Married women tend to vote more like men

Well, this single female never, ever in her 20 years of voting life, voted liberal, nor will she ever as long as she lives! Or DIES! ;-)

[Mark17]

BTW Don, born again here too, retired from USAF in 88 and my brother in law is from Sioux Falls. My better half speaks Tagalog, Bisaya and English, and is a whole bunch of years younger.

[Don Myers]

I retired about the same time that you did. My wife is also younger, about 9 years. We have lived in Sioux Falls since 1996.

Here's the rule of thumb. If a woman insists on keeping her own last name, run like hell.

A truer statement has never been posted. My father (and mother!) told me this when I was a wee lad.

[kstewskis]

"Sex free from responsibility means that women aren't finding husbands."

Now, that is true.

You're both right. We're finding guys who want to screw first, get to know you later. Definately not husband material.

[Don Myers]

"We're finding guys who want to screw first, get to know you later. Definately not husband material."

Bargain basement material is normally inferior. There are good guys out there, and they are looking for good women. Anymore, both are in short supply though. I think that it is harder to hook up with a desirable mate the older that you get. Young women are sex crazy who will go to bed with anyone and men won't marry them. They stay single. Then men get settled in their ways as they get older, and they don't want to jump into the frying pan so to speak. Marriage is on the way out, I think.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Anyone see that episode of "The Man Show" where the hosts were gulling women into signing a petition to repeal women's suffrage?

STOP THE SUFFRAGING!!!

That's kinda tempting after the Gore mess...

[Azzurri]

99% of the women I meet are politically naive. Lets face it, politics are a contact sport and women aren't interested. They get their little preconceived notions about conservatives being evil from MTV and all the trash artists in Hollywood. Women are just not very good at sorting thru the BS that gets spewed by pop culture. And, finally, most women I meet are only interested in one thing really...dancing! Only two issues have ever caused a woman to break up with me...one, when I tell them I'm pro-life and proud of it. Two, when I tell them I hate to dance and if I never danced again I would die a happy man. Bush could capture the women vote by simply declaring a national Holiday called Dancing Day.

Here's why:

1. Many women get offended when they stumble upon sites that this that arguably contain a lot of put-downs to women. I've noticed several in the last few days. Fortunately, I'm not going away just because there is a few ignorant men here.

2. Many women don't share the same view on abortion as religious conservatives, and this in fact a deciding factor for many of them since the President appoints new Supreme Court justices, and the Supreme Court could overturn Roe vs. Wade. I am pro-choice, but since I agree with most everything else here, I stick around. It's easy enough to ignore the religious posts.

3. Most misogynists I've known are arch-conservatives and women take notice of that.

I've learned the hard way that no political party can encompass all my beliefs on vary issues. I voted democrat in my late teens and early twenties just because of Roe vs. Wade. The answer to getting women back to ease off on the abortion issue. And that's the hard truth.

[Fraulein]

Clearly the Republican party needs to do a much better job at recruiting female voters. Why it has failed to do so, and how it can change that, are the real questions.

But, rest assured, sexism and women-bashing (like on this thread, and others) is not the solution.
