It happens before college, but is obviously reinforced there.
There's a firehose of careerist antinatal propaganda aimed at girls and young women. It's so broadly incorporated in our culture that I don't think you can really parse out who the culprits are.
Have you seen electoral maps: if only women voted, if only men voted, etc?
Very illuminating
I have.
There's an even more dramatic one I saw that was just single women vs everyone else.
Definitely something feels wrong when your political preferences can be predicted so accurately by immutable characteristics.
Being single is mutable, at least.
Also, party preferences aren't the same as policy preferences.
Except for abortion, American women have no policy preferences
Peer pressure and social status
Luxury beliefs aspirations
I'm interested in why women have drifted so liberal. Is it their choice of college major? Social media consumption?
I think social media causes people to have sharper opinions than they otherwise would, because of the echo chamber effect. It centralizes the opinions within subgroups, but sharpens differences between subgroups.
Not sure what the answer is. Cultural decline probably. Oh well, Western civilization, you had a good run.
