[ Women vote based on fear.

Men vote based on freedom.

If the Republican party wants to attract more womens votes it needs to do something to address womens fears. It must make them FEAR another Democratic administration more than it fears losing their federal government sugar daddy. ]

Most Women vote on fear because they have been raised poorly by their dim witted city slicker mothers who were bra burning 60’s hippies or an “American Princess” who are spoiled rotten and their biggest fear is the “gravy train” running out.

Raised in environments that spoiled them with convenience they fear ANY loss of convenience and especially fear the idea that they may have to take responsibility of taking care of themselves despite proclaiming / lying to themselves that they are an “independent woman”.

This is why Fluke going out and lying to women that they cannot afford their own birth control is so effective.

We need more Anne Oakley and far fewer American Princesses. Anne Oakley would make it matter of pride that she would buy her own stuff for her own body where the princess would feel entitled to it.

If you are raising a daughter, raise them to take care of themselves and also raise them to have a sense of Pride in taking care of themselves and that learned helplessness is a sin. Rugged individualism is not a men;’s only club, it is learned helplessness that begets Democrat voters.

I am glad I was raised right, on a farm alongside my brothers and expected not to do the same things they did but still expected to pitch in as much as I could and not to make excuses for myself.

women's natural instinct is to protect and nurture their children.

In the absence of a man they will turn to government to provide those things (out of fear)

First and foremost is safety, nothing else matters if you don't feel safe. So they will tend to vote for the party that will keep them safest when they feel threatened. People can be threatened from within (think crime) or from without (think terrorism)

The political class has known this for sometime and both sides exploit it, examples:

* Johnsons nuclear doomsday “Daisy commercial”
* Southern segregationists claims in regards to racial integration
* Reagan and HW Bush claim that Democrats are soft on crime and the famous “Willie Horton ads”
* W Bush war on terror

Once they feel safe they will tend to vote for the party that will provide, nurture, and/or take care of them (think welfare, college loans, and free healthcare).

Because of this, Republicans who have been historically tuff on crime and tuff on defense will have the advantage in an environment where women feel their safety is at stake, and democrats will have an advantage in times of relative peace and safety.

Thus, I argue that Republicans need to face this head-on and make the point that Democratic safety net programs are actually a THREAT to their financial well being and ultimately their safety.
