Interesting

I know women who won't vote for women candidates because they just don't trust women to do things as well as men can. And these women are under 40. True story.

Yeah, my new city isn't awesome. It's conveniently located, but not awesome.

I'm very surprised that kind of crap happens in St. Paul. I imagined it was far better. I think of it as a beacon.

Think more along the lines of a dim light in the dark cave that is Minnesota.

West St. Paul is not St. Paul, it's a suburb located...to the south of St. Paul. South St. Paul is another suburb, also located to the south of St. Paul. No, nobody has a sincere answer as to how my new city's name came to be.

Actually, they do. It's because it is on the west bank of the river across from St. Paul, if you think of the Mississippi as a north-south waterway and disregard the direction changes caused by bends.

/map nerd.

And yes, WSP is very much not STP.

Sounds like East Portland, which is every other meth-ridden white poor city with cars up on blocks in America. You would think you were in some timber town -- the women are Roseanne Barr not Carrie Brownstein.

Even though WSP and St. Paul are separated by Annapolis St., and not the Mississippi?

And a majority of them are Catholic, I'll bet.

I hafta think this is changing. Not among the Christian pinwheel-eyed set, but in the gen pop. There is a feeling of gender solidarity that's building among women -- at least the intelligent and independent women who vote Democratic. And the mythos of male leadership and intelligence has really taken a pounding the last 50 years except among girls who slurped up Biblical Patriarchy (and whatnot) from their pastors.

It has a lot to do with how Trump got to 53% of white women.

Dump was -7 among white college women and +27 among white non-college women. It wasn't women who hate women, it was women who are morons.

Well, I feel better about one thing: this proposed legislation will not be assigned a sub committee, meaning it's DOA.

So is this a way to get some wingnut state rep his talking point but not gum up the Leg?

I think this was the polite way of saying F off.

That being said, I want to be part of a Rainbow Jihad!

Despite the thread title this is one of the very few appearances for the Sioux.

And just so they won't feel left out, Wisco made the very next story.

WCHA Hat Trick is in play but so far no Minny story.
