The gender gap is growing between supporters of President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, according to a new Quinnipiac University poll of registered voters.

And that’s good news for the Democratic incumbent: Biden holds a slight lead over Trump in Wednesday’s 2024 presidential election poll, 50 percent to 44 percent. The same matchup was “too close to call” just a month ago.

More women said they would support Biden over Trump in this latest survey, with 58 percent backing Biden and 36 percent backing Trump. Last month, the Quinnipiac poll found 53 percent of women supported the incumbent Democrat, compared to 41 percent for the Republican challenger.

The numbers were relatively unchanged for men — 53 percent of men said they’d vote for Trump and 42 percent chose Biden in the latest poll, compared to 51 percent for Biden and 41 percent for Trump in December.

    Anyone remember that African country, or maybe it was a tribe, where the women, ALL of them, refused sex until peace was made? LOL, that shit was done and over in a week. Can y’all women get that going in America?

    Having dated heavily in the last few years, I’m seeing it here. (For context, I’m a liberal man in a conservative area.)

    I was on 6 dating sites. Hell, throw some poles in the water if you want to catch fish, right? Many women had “no MAGA” straight in their profile. But women, generally being more polite than men, mostly said “no politics”. “No politics” turned out to mean, no MAGA.

    Talking to a girl I later dated, “I’m kind of a redneck.”

    “…uh… Exactly how redneck?”

    “I fucking loathe Trump if that’s what you’re asking.”

    “Oh. WHEW! Sorry, just had to get that out of the way.”

    Play an interesting first-date game? Ask about the craziest date they’ve been on. My god. The abusive conservatives I’ve been schooled about. Guys fighting politics on the first date! Calling the woman names, bitching her out, all that. I could go on for ages.

    tl;dr Women: Don’t date conservatives. Cut them off.

      There’s a Greek play by Aristophanes called Lysistrata that has a plot like that. Spike Lee made the movie Chi-raq based on it.
