“Studies are showing that Gen Z men and women are getting further apart politically,” one student asked.
Why are we different from other generations?”He was referring to a recent Gallup poll showing an immense political gender gap between 18- to 29-year-old women and men, driven mainly by young women turning sharply left.
To begin with, the shift leftward among young women began before #MeToo, Trump’s election and Dobbs.
Globally, women are moving sharply left while men are moving modestly right (except in South Korea, where men are moving significantly to the right).
It’s that they’re less relevant than a series of seismic cultural changes that have led young men and young women to live increasingly separate lives — and the more they do so, the more they’ll have separate experiences and develop separate beliefs.
