      I don’t feel hypocritical though. I’m a woman who sometimes votes for women and sometimes doesn’t, depending on their merit.

        That’s very much fine by me, I’m a man who votes for women or men depending on what they promise (and how much I believe they’ll keep their promise). I specifically said “vote women because they’re women”.

            Oh of course everyone but this commenter. The commenter is the one perfectly logical human and they just thought they’d be kind and impart some of their deep wisdom upon us /s

            Like, just go Google and you’ll see discussions where people urge others that they should vote for a woman? For example, during the last elections in my country there was a campaign “circle a woman” (circling is giving your preference vote towards a singular candidate instead of just voting for a party, not sure if there’s some equivalent where you live).

              Do you see it on lemmy? I’ve never encountered this and it feels weird to say that you’re combatting hypocrisy when you’re not in the arena in which it actually takes place.
