I've always wondered why men are more likely to vote republican than women. In high school I knew plenty of boys who were atheists but didn't know any girls who were. There were much more dudes than chicks who smoked weed, wore dreadlocks etc. A lot of the girls in my high school were of the prep variety and into things like choir et al.
My theory is this: While most of the atheists and trustafarians I knew in HS probably vote democrat and most of the prep girls vote republican; there is a huge gap between the non-atheist non-pothead male and the non-prep girl. White males who are preps are probably 85-15 GOP while white female preps are probably 65-35 GOP. Also, the few women who are atheists/counterculture are probably 90-10 dem while the men who are like that are probably 65% Dem, 20% Republican and 15% Third Party (especially libertarian).
Would you agree with this assessment?
