What you guys are seeing does not match what I do - - including in my very blue community. I see women who for the most part are plenty tough, regardless of their political leanings.

I have no doubt that women in redneck regions are made of tougher stuff than those who live in urban/blue communities. It would make sense for that to be the case. But, at least based upon the comments that I am reading on this thread - - and on many other threads like it - - I think you guys have an unfair assessment of American women generally. And especially about black women - - many of whom face social and economic challenges that others don't.

Just my (unpopular, I know) observation.

Well, don't include me. I seem to be a redneck outlier, lol.

P.S. I spent 2 years living in Norfolk. HATED it, lol.

My three kids agree with you. Raised here, but none of them wanted to stick around.

(Or maybe that's a comment on me.)

I lived in Norfolk too, when I was a little kid. I barely remember it.

Did I have Virginia on my list the other day? Not that it would catch me up with you.

They're still all psycho.

Interesting. I don't have that problem with any of my female relatives near me. They are all just how you hope they would be.

Its not just liberal white women who are crazy. Liberal Black women are too.

It tells you who the Democratic ads were targeting. 7 in 10 Black female voters were afraid Trump would lead to authoritarianism. The good part is:

"...But now, with Trump set to return to office in two months, some Black women are renewing calls to emphasize rest, focus on mental health and become more selective about what fight they lend their organizing power to...."

Because its clear these women ARE crazy.

I live in a dark-blue community. Unlike those of you who post here regularly - - who apparently don’t deal daily with “soy boys” and other emasculated men - - I am surrounded by them. If I limited my close friendships to only those who voted for Trump this past election, I literally would only need one hand to count them. And I suspect that I could spare to lose one (and maybe even two) fingers.

That’s pathetic. And I envy the lot of you who live in communities with a much healthier set of American males.

Until I read a thread like this one. What in the world is wrong with the women in your communities? Norfolk may have a problem with testosterone-lacking men, but I can only think of a small handful of women I know that fit the description of what you poor guys claim to live with. That doesn’t necessarily mean that they are Trump voters, but they know how to think for themselves. With just a single exception (my retired-teacher neighbor across the street), I’ve not witnessed a single female meltdown post-election.

One example (and I don’t know her personally, so I hope that she will forgive me for citing her here): look at any post by Dancing Monarch. That is what the typical Norfolk woman behaves like. Much like my wife and most of her set of friends and acquaintances.

My community very much needs to work on its wimpy-man problem. But it seems to me that you guys need to figure out why you live with or are surrounded by such sad-sack women.

Move

I'm not trying to convince you that you're wrong and I'm right. Obviously we have had wildly different experiences with women.

Well, I'm talking current relatives and current wife, not ex-wives.

I have two exes. Had to excommunicate both of them. They were bad news for very different reasons.

Been married to #3 for 42 years now. Third time was a charm. And her whole damn giant family is solid gold. Except her one brother, who is crazy, but he ain't female, so...

Even my female relatives (whom I love dearly) are all psycho. Easier to deal with since I don't sleep with any of them (even though that's acceptable in the deep south).

Okay, that made me...

So, the common denominated wasn't black/white, it was just that they were liberal. I think we all knew they were a little loca even before the election.

There's not too many Black females in my town, they're very much rare in El Paso. I don't know any and it's not because I'm racist it's because I don't live close to any Black person/couple. You can see some at WalMart but that's the most logical place to find them. Many are ex-military who probably like how us Hispanics stick to ourselves and don't create unnecessary problems.

The population is about 80% Demonic but if you don't talk politics it's easy to get along with anyone. There's a White woman who lives two doors down and is married to an ex-Marine and that one is bat Schiff crazy...certified. I steer clear of her and don't even wave to her when she drives past my house or vice versa. Another one is also a big Demonic who posts Occupy Democrats on Facebook all the time. She considers herself a Christian (catholic) but doesn't follow the religion otherwise she would know that the Catholic priests frown on abortion. She doesn't talk politics either.

In a nutshell, if you keep your politics to yourself you will definitely not get into arguments here. You might say a wise crack but it's taken in good humor. I have a hard time keeping my hate for the Demonic Party to myself and I try as heck too. I'm getting better at keeping mum about it, afterall, we won and why rub it in.
