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?

Female and Male R's are close in ideology. Female D's are to the left of Male D's.

Males are more polarized in their views imo. So Male D's are to the left of Female D's and Male R's are to the right of Female R's.

In terms of politically active males and political junkies, maybe yes.
