Sorry, I assumed you were referring to women voting for Trump.

I was referring to women who did not vote for trump but did not want their husbands to know.

Then by the same metric you're saying up to 55% of educated married women live as slaves to their husbands. Examine your argument. Does it fit with your view of women?

Stop, starting, with the other side is wrong.

But YAY! The election is over and we can all go back to sleep until the next, where we will wake up frustrated to choose the lesser of two evils.

Party on party people!

O have no argument to support and that may very well be true. I married an independent thinking woman 49 years ago. We are still happily married, probably because weтАЩve had a partnership. I believe women are equal to men. Some of my best direct reports were women.

I too married an independent thinking woman and remain blissfully happy after 24 years of marriage and 13 years prior of "living in sin". We have raised two wonderful daughters that have now formed their own families. All mentioned here have bachelor degrees, though earned through different paths.

We became parents as teen agers, struggled through welfare, and ultimately found foot holds in professions that suited our talents. We dug ourselves out of debt and learned to invest in real estate while maintain fulltime jobs. Now 37 years later we are comfortable financially and feeling inflation.

My wife was turned toward Trump in his final debate with Clinton when she reiterated her full support for later term abortion. https://www.youtube.com/live/84cJdY8wkV8?feature=shared&t=870

Later my wife was attacked online by our son in-laws and several others when she thumbed up the Girl Scouts of Americas celebration of the appointment of a woman to the Supreme Court. Amy Coney Barrett apparently was found unworthy by the left and not herself an example of feminisms success and likewise my wife's opinion was considered worth less than many enlightened men's.

Holding an ideal of feminism while running over women, is NOT being allies. Women, women, women! ALL women matter most when it comes to feminism.

The democratic party's disparagement of 50%, or in this election a bit more of the US population is what lead to Trumps win.

Party on party people!

My mother lived basically as a slave to my father.
