think of the main political parties as frats, and suddenly the
enormous enthusiam gap between men and women for this election seems
clear. for years most of the girls have been avoiding keggers at the
republican frat house. they know that all they are going to get from
those parties is the chance to fetch beers for they boys to chants of
‘show us yer tits!’ instead they head to the keggers at the democrats
house. no one shouts ‘show us yer tits’ but the girls are still
expected to fetch the beer and clean up the morning after and show
their tits when asked nicely, wether they want to or not. eventually
the women wise up. they aren’t much better off and the price they have
to pay is too steep. why go to a party at all when you can stay home
and save the humiliation.
certainly no one (cough) could have predicted this during the
primaries, what with all the sexist dogwhistles and cat calls from the
Obots
