I dunno, Amanda, I was in a fraternity at roughly the same time and the big difference I see is that these things are being said in a chat that can be reported on now. I’ll allow that back in our day young conservatives were better able to rein it in to get laid, but that’s about it.

For those tempted to say Young Republicans have always been this way, they really have not. When I worked on campus and did bipartisan college events after, they were very much not like this.

That’s why groups like YCT and eventually TPUSA formed — because Young Republicans weren’t radical enough.

EXCLUSIVE: Thousands of leaked messages show leaders of Young Republican groups joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape in a private Telegram chat.

Amanda, girl, yes they have. Even Joss Whedon clocked it back in 1992.

I sent him a selfie from my foyer and you could see my various house keys in the background.

Him: "Who do you live with?"

Me: "Oh, I live alone. I just bought my house last here."
*continues conversation*

Him: *proceeds to completely stop replying . . . forever*

95% of the "these women want to be men" is a cowards way of saying "i am insecure because i can't call myself a provider if she makes more than me." And it will be from the same men who say "these women only want me for my money." Tell the truth and shame the Trump.

This is important because women who are higher educated and higher income have more difficulty dating

listen...

you do not have to be smarter than your intimate partner

you dont have to make more than them

or have a greater social status

The purpose of the relationship is not to reinforce your ego

The purpose of the relationship is care

men are not socialized to be equitable partners.

They are socialized to believe they are dominate partners

The data corroborates the vibe. A 2013 University of Chicago study of 4,000 married couples in the US found that as soon as a woman out-earns her husband, both are 6% less likely to report a "very happy" marriage. They're also 8% more likely to report marital troubles and 6 percent more likely to discuss separating. A Swedish study from 2016 found that a married woman is twice as likely as a man to be divorced three years after being promoted to CEO. A similar pattern follows in the public sector: Women who are elected to positions like mayor or parliamentarian double the chances of their marriages falling apart.

this was never about his "happiness" ... but rather the aspects and levers for control.

and i'll do you one better ... men become uncomfortable when their partners make more than they do because they believe that their partners will financially and emotionally manipulate them ....

His self worth wasn’t tied to income… because he felt great until you made more… his self worth was tied to financial control

Her partner's self-worth was tied directly to his income, and it eroded as her salary grew, Dhatt tells me.

As an 80s Gen X kid, I remember my teacher playing "Ebony & Ivory" in class. It was only two Black kids, I was one of them.

I love the fact that you can point to this moment for every generation. White folks WILL FIND a collective point to mobilize around as a way of not having to unpack anything regarding race and the systems around us

Gonna do an essay about how MTV made white Gen X-ers think racism evaporated in the 90s.
