Young women are more liberal than they have been in decades, according to a Gallup analysis of more than 20 years of polling data.

Over the past few years, about 4 in 10 young women between the ages of 18 and 29 have described their political views as liberal, compared with two decades ago when about 3 in 10 identified that way.

For many young women, their liberal identity is not just a new label. The share of young women who hold liberal views on the environment, abortion, race relations and gun laws has also jumped by double digits, Gallup found.

    Who could ever know why men aren’t becoming as progressive as women, guess we will never know! Every refusal to acknowledge the issue, is cause for it to grow bigger.

    Yes, I too could act like a dick and say ‘I have an issue!’

    Yes, I too could respond to people saying that I’m being unreasonable by saying ‘it’s your fault!’

    No, at no point am I doing anything but sabotaging myself because I feel entitled to being treated more leniently than everyone else.
