Why do men hate women so much?

114. Men are also indoctrinated by the same patriarchal society

Going against what is considered the norm is hard, especially when it involves giving up privilege. And for a lot of men it does involve giving up privilege whether in the workplace or at home. But that said, the gender gap started long ago in at least the 1990s. It's not a new phenomenon in American politics. Clinton in 1996 is said to be the first president elected without a plurality of both men and women (he lost men by 1 point, but won women by 17 points.

But that gap is at least partially explained by what men and women favor electorally. Women tend to favor social programs and Republicans are vehemently against them. More men tend to favor voting on the economy and for a lot of inaccurate reasons, Republicans are thought to be better on the economy. I don't think it's nearly as simplistic as saying that men who didn't vote for Harris hate women. Sure some do, but claiming it's a substantial majority is grabbing for the reason you want to believe.

But I wouldn't agree that the U.S. has gone backwards since 1977. Someone with Obama's story wouldn't have been elected president. Women wouldn't have been even considered as a major party candidate. Same sex marriage wasn't legal. Marital rape is illegal. The internet has revolutionized communication. We're living longer. Violent crime dropped like a rock. Cancer treatments and death rates.

Objectively we've come a long way. Yeah we have a long way to go, but it's not accurate to say we've regressed.
