I think sexism sums it up better.

I mean, if we're just throwing stuff out there.

Except Tammy Baldwin and Rashida Tlaib and like half a dozen pro reproductive healthcare ballot measures won last night

Also, I don't know how exactly we make America less sexist, but drawing a better contrast with the Republican party seems like a tangible and actionable thing

The voters open to change of having a female president don’t just want her running on the policies of the status quo. And then the voters who want to stick with the status quo are less open to a female president.
