    We have literal scientific proof that voters don’t give a shit if the candidate is a man or a woman.

    Please really do stop this narrative. It makes more damage than you think

      You can’t have “scientific proof” on an opinion. That’s dumb. If voters don’t care if the candidate is a man or woman THEN WHY HAVE THEY ALL BEEN MEN? I think that ends your “science” right there.

      This was the weirdest response I have ever had on Lemmy … congrats.

          You make no sense.

          My point: The US is not ready fir a woman president and won’t elect one. Dems need to stop running women.

          Your Point (apparently): Science says voters don’t care if the candidate is male or female.

          Let’s test your theory in the laboratory of life. To be correct by your measure the US should have around a 50% male/female ratio, we will say 40/60 proves it as well.

          There have been 45 people elected to the 60 US presidential terms.

          Let’s look at the elected presidents. By your measure, should it not matter to voters, we should have had 20-23 women as president. We should also have 40-50% women in Congress, the House, and Senate. Let’s check those numbers …

          of US presidents in history: None

          Women in politics is currently the highest it has ever been. The numbers are 28% in Congress, 29% in the House and 25% in the Senate.

          Hmmm … it looks like there is a substantial difference in how voters feel.

          This is the part where you throw a fit and start name calling.
