What can the Republican Party do to increase their support with women?

[Ferguson97]

The gender gap in partisanship is growing. We mostly hear the discussion on Atlas framed around what the Democrats can do to stop the bleeding among males, but what about the reverse?

What can Republicans do to increase their support among women?

[Statilius the Epicurean]

Embrace Qanon moms

[TheReckoning]

Well, stopping to support candidates who have a very dodgy history with women would be a good start.

I honestly think women will probably always vote for Democrats moreso than Republicans (barring an unprecedented change), but there’s no reason for the gap to be as large as it is today.

[Schiff for Senate]

Gee, I don't know...? Maybe try not heavily restricting them from making decisions about their own bodies? Maybe try not overturning a SCOTUS decision that allows them to do so? Just a thought, and I know how crazy it sounds...

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Defund colleges so they stop signing up for indoctrination classes.

[Big Abraham]

Nominate a girlboss like Marjorie Taylor Greene.

[Bootes Void]

Ditch supply side economics which only interest men and go all in on cultural and social issues and wars

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

In the first few decades after the Nineteenth Amendment women tended to vote to the right of men, mostly because the main economic issues for housewives had to do with prices and cost of living whereas the main economic issues for downscale men had to do with labor rights and working conditions. It's not a coincidence that the first three Presidential elections after women gained the franchise nationwide were Republican tsunamis. The perception that center-left parties are generally more credible on regulatory issues whereas center-right parties are generally more credible on consumer issues is a very old one.

Support maternity leave, as a party?

[Meclazine for Israel]

Place more women into the top positions...e.g
Kyrsten Sinema would make a good leading GOP Senator.

In Australia, the senior members of Parliament are called front-benchers.

I am not sure what the equivalent senior positions are termed in the US Congress or Senate.

I wonder if women being more religious could have played a role in women in the 1930s being more conservative?

At least that happened here in the first election where women could vote; but I imagine that probably doesn't apply to the US? (whether because women weren't more religious or because there weren't any big differences in religiosity in those days in the US?)
