Given that this discussion is entirely about the voting population, it seems more accurate to say that men are the minority.

But rather than squabbling over 34% vs 33% representation, maybe we can just use a neutral term like “demographics”

Women are 51% of the US population. They make up an even larger share of the voting base.

Why would they be considered a minority in a discussion about voters?

Women aren’t a minority.

Being “civil and respectful” means not using naughty words like “demographics”? Because that’s the contentious term here.
May 28, 2025 at 4:32 PM
What could it possibly be a slur for? White men are a demographic too. It’s an extremely common, neutral term in political discussion.
May 28, 2025 at 4:31 PM
Actually I think your response was reasonable, even if I don’t fully agree.
May 28, 2025 at 4:29 PM
It’s called being a heckin’ decent person and not using naughty words like “demographics”

You’re right. Normal people love having to walk on eggshells to accommodate the ever-changing sensibilities of neurotic progressives.

That’s why they all moved over to BlueSky so that they could keep being policed.

I agree with you! But the other commenters are telling me you’re wrong and that it is exclusively the fault of men
May 28, 2025 at 4:04 PM
“Yikes my dude. You just committed a progressive faux pas trying to describe reality.”

Normal people don’t like having to walk on eggshells to talk about things. I know it doesn’t bother you because you’re a true believer, but people are tired of accommodating your religion.

What is “other demographics” a dogwhistle for? How am I supposed to refer to the totality of demographics excluding white males?

The point is that you guys aren’t the “fuck your feelings” crowd. You call yourself the empathy crowd. Except when it comes to men.

You said “any other demographic” is the dogwhistle, not “microagressions.”

And my point is that young men aren’t going to respond well to “shut up and man up” from the same crowd that made a big stink over microagressions and implicit biases towards other demographics.

Lmao what could I possibly be dogwhistling there? You’re seeing ghosts. Good luck fighting those fascists.
May 28, 2025 at 12:59 AM
So whose fault is it then?

She asked whose fault it was that we have sensitivity training. The answer is it’s everyone’s fault, right?

What implications would you draw from a poster that said “The Future is Male”?
May 27, 2025 at 11:52 PM
Do you say that to any other demographic when they express hurt from “microagressions”?
May 27, 2025 at 11:50 PM
Only men make sexist and racist remarks?
