This isn't going to be popular, but part of the problem is not acknowledging that 42%. It's fucking insulting, frankly. Plenty of women voted for the bear.
EDIT: In light of reports of tons of guys saying "your body my choice" and shit, I actually regret writing this & everything below.
Like, what the fuck, boys?
52% of white women voted for trump.
Chances are that many of the people crying about men voting trump, are part of a demographic that mostly voted trump.
Trump apparently won the popular vote anyway. Most of everyone who voted, voted trump. But let's focus on men and then be surprised that young men who are very insecure about themselves anyway, feel attacked by the left and choose the right.
Nice anti-masculine sentiment. No wonder they voted Trump. You guys don't hide your disdain as well as you think you do.
Lol I wonder why...
As a guy who used to be a young man and with a lot of young men as friends, retrospectively yeah, most issues were based in insecurities. You really want to be an adult and you feel like you should be one but you don't know how to be one. You go out and want to meet girls and you are scared of the rejection.
You can act like that is "anti-masculine" sentiment but it isn't. It is an understanding of humans.
Just as a sidenote, based on my experience every young adult is struggling with insecurities.
This is a totally different statement.
Saying men are insecure when it's the case across the board means it's fair game to call you out. It sounds like fundamentally we don't disagree though.
