What's this?

I know but that is what I see as the reason for it. They are programmed to

Believe that a woman’s “place” is in the background doing menial shit (so not necessarily abused by their husbands, but abused by the society that raised them to be that way). So when they hear someone like Hillary Clinton say “I’m not here to bake cookies” or hear about Kamala Harris doing some sport fuckin’ in her 20’s, their whole world view is turned upside down and they hate those women for it.

Oddly, it’s hard to find a more openly misogynistic group of people than Conservative women.
