Young women are more liberal than they’ve been in decades. That's according to a Gallup analysis of more than 20 years of polling data.

    I don’t know a single young woman (under 40) who is not financially dependent on a man, despite my wider-than-most social circles.

        Why are you upset about it?

      Weird. Maybe you don’t know many women or you live in a city where people can’t afford a place to live on their own, in which case both women and men suffer.

      My wife has always made more than me, and I’m totally cool with it!

        I’m in a college town. State College, PA. Yes, it’s affluent enough to make home ownership unattainable for most. Even amongst the non-students in the area, financially independent young women simply don’t exist.

        I own a yoga studio downtown and so I must admit that I talk to a fair amount of young women, albeit in a professional setting.

      Sounds not wide at all. I don’t know a woman under 40 who is financially dependent on a man. And I have a pretty limited tolerance for socializing

        What’s weird about my observation? Do you know many young women who are financially independent?
