In countries on every continent, an ideological gap has opened up between young men and women. Tens of millions of people who occupy the same cities, workplaces, classrooms and even homes no longer see eye-to-eye.

In the US, Gallup data shows that after decades where the sexes were each spread roughly equally across liberal and conservative world views, women aged 18 to 30 are now 30 percentage points more liberal than their male contemporaries. That gap took just six years to open up.

Not surprised

Liberalism and progressivism are feelings based ideologies
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

No surprise there.  Young women are charmed by the promise (however false) that Daddy Government will care for them from cradle to grave.

Are these real young men and women, or ersatz makeovers?

Throw in social media, where adult women can be forever in the cliquey, catty Jr. High cheerleading squad with Kaley, Bailey, and Haley and never actually have to grow up.

This is a result of Democrats framing all things possible in purely emotional terms.

Funny as I see things going the other way, and I am encouraged. Gen z is far more conservative, far more gender oriented, seeking out the old ways. Respect for elders, respect for genders, respect of genteel societal roles - maybe not in the rigid Southern sense, but it is surely there... Young churches springing up...

@roamer_1  is right. The Roaring Twenties gave us the conservative 50's. The fifties gave us the 60s and 70s.

History is cyclical. Plus if you watch any of those reality TV dating shows like 90 Day fiancé, people look for spouses in other countries because they don't want to date someone who is from America.

Sounds good to me.

Let these young males wise up and drive feminism back down into the kitchen.

Look at Jordan B Peterson... He rings like a bell in young men. WHY?

And look at the Tradwife thing going on now in social media... Ringing like a bell to young women. WHY?

The pendulum can't swing fast enough.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
