This thing from Charlie Kirk and others about women needing to vote the way their husbands tell them to vote is absurd and further underscores just how culturally insular and cloistered these guys are from the real world—even the world they claim to speak for. I’m from a culturally conservative and heavily Christian part of east Texas, and not even the most devout of husbands are going around telling their wives how to vote. This is a bizarre caricature of faith-based families and communities and, frankly, it’s insulting. The idea that this happens is solely the creation of heavily online right-wing conservabros who, insecure in their own masculinity, traffic in dumb tropes to signal their “toughness” while not being sufficiently adjusted to the behavior of normal people in society.
