The rise of toxic femininity

'But does Britain really have a problem with young men drifting into the arms of dangerous, far-right influencers such as Andrew Tate and Tommy Robinson? The survey data suggests that a far bigger issue is young women being radicalised by the far-left. We’re all familiar with the dinner party talking point that men and women’s political views are becoming increasingly divergent. But the reason for this is not, as is commonly supposed, because men are turning right.

According to an analysis by the FT, in the 1990s the political ideology of 18- to 29-year-old men and women was more or less the same, with both, on average, mildly liberal. Fast-forward to 2024 and men had become a little bit more liberal – not more conservative – while women had become significantly more so. That is to say, vast swaths of young women have become advocates of the ‘omnicause’ – trans rights, climate justice, open borders, anti-racism and the plight of the Palestinians. The intersectional hierarchy of oppression – and fighting ‘white supremacy’ – is their lodestar.

The same pattern is observable in France, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United States, with young men’s views barely changing over the past 25 years and women veering sharply to the left. Admittedly, they tend to return to the centre when they get married and have kids, but that’s happening less and less, because woke women don’t want to date non-woke men. As a rule, the more divergent men and women’s political ideology is, the worse the fertility crisis, with South Korea scoring high (or rather low) on both metrics. China isn’t far behind, with the lowest birth rate on record.'
