Ok good, this is it then.

Let's never, ever again see any right winger questioning why the GOP loses women by double digits.

Oh, I just recognised the rhetoric. I used to hang out there a bit in the '60s before I grew up. It has been said that if a man is not a liberal when he is young, he has no heart, and if he is not a conservative when he gets older, he has no brain.

BTW, You don't know what my education has been, so you are speaking from ignorance in the truest sense of the word.

Men and women's basic natures never change. We just pretend they do.

She actually claimed that the ERA would lead to homosexual marriage and women in combat.

Shows what an absurd whacko she was. Those things could never happen...

First of all it's single women and who was questioning why?


Liberal anti-male laws have created a generation of young men significantly less interested in marriage than generations past.

Young Men and Women Differ on the Importance of a Successful Marriage | Pew Research Center


The marriage rate in the US is at an all-time low even though the number of women who would like to be married is increasing.

Love and Marriage | Pew Research Center


This growing bitter and disillusioned single female political block is one that Democrats realize they can manipulate in the future as their all out war on men yields broken fatherless families and a Münchausen-by-proxyesque opportunity for Democrats to ease the suffering their policies have caused.


Every Democrat knows that the New Deal was an economic catastrophe that became a political gold mine of widespread desperation and dependency of the generous hand of government.


Remember, even with double digit unemployment, FDR still had to die in office to lose the White House.


So what has changed in the past eighty years?


The women no one wants to marry have effectively married the federal government.


This is a growing demographic that Democrats will certainly continue to expand and exploit.

Funny thing about Phyllis. She worked outside of the home, traveling and speaking.
An accomplished lawyer and author. Not exactly "just a housewife".
I often wondered when she found the time to take care of her six kids.
Miracle woman or just talking out of both sides of her mouth. I'm thinking the latter.

Funny what people will say just to make a buck...

Other than trickle down economics I can't find one thing in American politics that has been debunked and proven wrong as often as the Pay gap but for some reason people still reference it

Men work more hours in higher paying more dangerous jobs and are less likely to take time off for children. Single childless women actually make more than their male counterparts but the media never acknowledges this because it goes against the women are victims by the evil male oppressor agenda

I have heard 'a woman's work is never done', so therefore it's only right they are paid less.

Single childless women are more apt to be more educated, thus getting that better paying job than the guy in their own demographic that maybe is not. Even if he is as educated, I'd say in this day and age, a woman has an up on getting that job. Not necessarily because she will be better at it, but part of affirmative action.
Look at the women in high places in the Obama administration; Rice, Hillary, Sebilius.
Just bursting with competence there

I don't think anyone is denying that women got the short stick for the longest time though.
Sorry if guys can't deal with having a short stick now
