An astonishing political phenomenon exists, and it has never been more acute than during this election cycle. In other words, if only women voted, Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris would win by a landslide.
If only men voted, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump would win in a landslide.
And one issue that helps give Democrats an edge when it comes to women is abortion. In fact, prenatal infanticide is “now the most important problem for women under 30,” health policy group KFF wrote on October 11. About four in 10 (39%) say it is their biggest problem, followed by inflation (28%). %),” the site continued.
Yin and Yang
The above landslide prediction is by no means an exaggeration. USA Today writes:
In the latest national poll by USA TODAY/Suffolk University, women firmly support Democrat Kamala Harris, 53% to 36%. This reflects overwhelming male support for Republican Donald Trump (53% to 37%). If this gap holds until Election Day, it would be the largest gender gap since the gender gap began in 1980, more than 40 years ago.
Again, note that a 16 or 17 point lead is well beyond the margin of error for any poll.
To be fair, KFF also tells us that inflation, not abortion, is the biggest problem for women overall. For Democratic women overall, “threat to democracy” is the top issue, with inflation coming in second. However, both groups rank third in support for prenatal infanticide, leaving no doubt that this is a major “women's” issue. It goes beyond the existential issues of “immigration control and border security.''
obsession with abortion
This is especially surprising given that abortion is also an existential issue for the unborn child (and the soul of our nation). But why are so many women “voting for abortion primarily on one issue”? asks commentator Olivia Murray. Her answer is, “Simply put, women are emotional creatures.'' Murray continues:
For better or worse, a woman is a woman, and for better or worse, a man is a man. And because men have the ability to emotionally detach in a way that many women cannot, even if a woman believes that abortion is a good thing, or even tells her to have an abortion, men (whole (as) I don't understand what abortion means. A man's insistence that “this is my body and what I want” has a devastating effect on a mother's mental health. Honest psychologists have a name for this and it's called post-abortion syndrome, which is a type of PTSD. In many of the same ways.
Men, I hate to admit it because I'm not innocent, but women don't say what they want when they're upset. In most situations where abortion is considered (casual sexual relationships), the mother will tell the father that she is pregnant and may say that she is considering “options” or even wants to have an abortion. She won't say it like that, but she doesn't want to be the kind of woman who gets burned after a one-night stand or an affair. This is evidenced primarily by the fact that even though pro-abortion women vote for abortion, when faced with their own pregnancies they face serious doubts about obtaining an abortion themselves. has been. They want to protect their babies.
read between the lines
It is intuitive that a mother wants to protect the precious life growing inside her. So what are most women facing an unplanned pregnancy actually thinking? Murray writes that women really want to hear the next words of their child's father.
“No, baby, we're not going to do that (abortion). We're going to make this happen. I'm going to step up and focus solely on you and our baby.” The largest demographic group of women receiving abortions is unmarried women (,), and 87% of abortions are performed by single women.
Men, by not accepting sexual responsibility for yourself and the other gender, foolish, emotional women in stressful and critical situations are making rash and self-destructive decisions and losing their children. You're fostering an environment that kills men (men) and, of course, is completely ruined by it. Then they go to vote, and their vote matters just as much as your vote and as much as my vote.
In other words, “When you change your eyes, everything changes.” Losing (or killing) a child can cause blindness in its eyes. The aforementioned USA Today article on the voting habits of men and women also provides an example of this. The paper writes:
“This is a very difficult topic. It's very painful for me,” said Vanessa Carmona, 48, of Pasadena, California, who participated in the (newspaper) poll. For her husband, “it makes economic sense for a Republican to be president,'' but she believes, based on her own experience, that reproductive rights are the most important issue. “When I learned about our past history of miscarriage and went through it, I literally broke down in tears. “I can't believe you're saying this right now after what we've been through. I'm like, “Wow.”
From the womb to the grave is different.
Now, what comes to mind here may be Ben Franklin's line, “Passion rules, but she never rules wisely.” Would you want someone in tears deciding whether to launch a nuclear attack? A calm mind is a prerequisite for sound decision making.
But Murray's observation that “women are emotional creatures” reminded me of related research I read years ago. It was about the different ways in which little boys and girls resolve their differences. The researchers found that young people tried to make sure everything was fair for everyone involved before shaking hands and saying, transaction. “In contrast, women try to make sure they choose treatments that everyone feels good about.
Therefore, we see that even at a young age, fundamental sex differences become apparent. The boys instinctively emphasized fairness, the application of principles. Principles are not just ideas, but truths that, when true, are objective and exist apart from humans. As such, the boys were reflexively idea-oriented and naturally looked to something objective beyond themselves when seeking solutions. The girls instinctively referred to their feelings, which of course are subjective, coming from within themselves (and changing with the wind).
What is certain is that the feelings of a fetus, male or female, do not tell you to kill it.
