But yeah, when we talk about the bro vote, what we're talking about is like the coalition of kind of Gen Z male voters who have been leaning to the right in ways that kind of deviate from what we would think of as, you know, the kind of straightforwardly liberal youth vote. Right.

Yeah, I mean, I think there's so many different, like, reasons for it. I mean, part of the reason, yeah, like, in the 2000s, like, being, like, to the left was, like, what the cool kids did.

So right now, all we have are exit polls. We won't know, like, for sure things for another couple weeks. But it is showing that, you know, 18 to 29-year-old men are, like, favored Trump 49%. And 18 to 29-year-old women favored Harris by 24 points. So that's, like, a huge gap between what young men are voting for and what young women are voting for. And...

I think what we're seeing is a lot of young men reacting to, you know, the enormous strides that women have made in the last 50 years. You know, like more women out earn men, more women are getting college degrees. You know, these men sometimes feel very left behind. That's what they say. They feel, you know, Me Too was an overreach.

The Trump campaign really kind of threw out the playbook that a typical presidential campaign would do, which is like, you know, do every like cable news interview and do interviews with newspapers and things. He went straight to where people are paying attention. He did interviews that weren't even political at all.

You know, like we have influencers who are just really popular with young men often because, you know, they cover gaming or sports or whatever. And those people interviewed him in this way that can reach the sort of like the nonpolitical bro vote.

prankster, boxer, kind of fighter influencers, and the Nelk Boys, who are kind of of the same ilk, both of them have been accused of crypto scams. So it's a real school of Athens when it comes to these people. And when Trump won, they shouted a lot of them out.

I mean, I think in the future, like candidates will have to go straight to the source. And by that, I mean, like professional influencers rather than going to mainstream media, because, you know. influencers now wield so much attention. There are so many of them. And so many of us are getting our news in these very kind of nichified spaces.

Like not everybody is pulling up a copy of the New York Times in the morning. We all have our subsects that we read, our influencers that we watch, our algorithms are all personalized to us. And so in order to reach a lot of people, you have to kind of go to all these different places where people are getting their news. And that landscape has shifted so much since 2016.

Yeah, I think I think the kind of gender war thing that we're seeing in this election and also increasingly online is just it says so much about where we're at right now. And and the fact that so many women voted for Trump, too, should also say a lot because I report on Internet culture. And what I've seen from content targeting young women is a similar shift to the right.

And the truth is, there is no higher calling than being a wife and a mother for a woman. And it's sort of like an escape from, you know, the horrible economy and everything else that's, you know, bad about life right now. You have dating content that's like, you know, just use men for their money and all you are are your looks and that's how you can bag a rich man and be set for life.

And, you know, all of these things, you know, imply that We should just lean more heavily into our gender roles, like men should be the head of the household and women are there to look pretty and take care of the home. And that's exactly what men are also getting. And so when you have a lot of, you know, people both seeking out this content and being served it, you got to shift to the right.

Yeah, and I think the Harris campaign kind of sort of implicitly acknowledged that in the sense that, like, there was really no emphasis on her being, you know, what could have been the first female president because, you know, this is what the Clinton campaign did and that failed.

They were also seeing the same shifts that are playing out online where people are being turned off a bit by identity politics and over-association with gender and instead being, you know, driven to this content that just reinforces these kind of regressive gender stereotypes.

This is something that I spent most of my life not thinking about at all. I'm pretty normie when it comes to clothes. I'm just like, I will wear my jeans and a T-shirt, tell me what width the jeans are supposed to be, and I am good to go. After lockdown, once I was vaccinated and starting to get out into the world again, I felt like none of my clothes felt right for me anymore.

You know, I had all of these like business casual dresses and leftover skinny jeans and I just looked at them and I was like, this doesn't seem quite right anymore. Now that I've had this year of not dressing for other people, I've changed who I am and my clothes haven't changed in a way that will keep up with that. And it was so weird to try to think about

getting a whole year's worth of changes done to my wardrobe in one fell swoop that I ended up feeling like maybe it was time to be more intentional and figure out what I wanted from my clothes. But when I thought about it, I had all these really contradictory desires. You know, I wanted to look thin and also not care about looking thin.

It's all about the shapes that fabric makes when it's draped over your body and figuring out how to buy clothes that will suit those shapes best and then what kind of style vibe that leads to. Which is very fun for a certain type of personality, which includes me, but does also, I think, get a little exhausting and also leads to fixating on your body in maybe kind of weird ways.

I did watch What Not to Wear religiously. And I think a big part of the appeal was that it was telling you, yeah, there are very strict clothing rules. Here's what they are.

Yeah, this is also something where you and I working in digital media is a blessing and a curse for us because I have definitely taken meetings with people who are barefoot at our mutual office. I talked to a bunch of fashion experts about this. I was so fascinated by this question. In part because Clinton and Stacey have swung the other way too, right?

This is a journey we're like all taking as a culture. So I talked to a bunch of fashion experts about this and I have three reasons for this swing. One that is cultural, one that is economic, and one that is more material. So culturally, over the past 10, 15 years, there's been a lot more space on the internet for the movements of body positivity, body neutrality, and fat acceptance.

Do you know what? I've just accepted I'm a big girl. All of which I think has kind of helped make space for people to think, OK, maybe the point of clothes isn't always to make me look as thin as they possibly can. You know, maybe this can be a place for more joyful self-expression that doesn't involve trying to conform to a very specific standard of beauty. Economically,

As fast fashion has taken off, the trend cycle has sped up so much that it is actually kind of impossible now to keep pace with trends the way you might have been able to 10 or 20 years before. So the idea of finding your personal style becomes really attractive in that situation because it's a way of releasing yourself from the trend cycle and from the textile waste that goes along with it.

The final reason I have is more materials-based. This is one that comes from Kibbe himself, who I cannot escape, which is that around the 1980s, we started to put a lot more elastic in clothing than we used to before. And this has fundamentally changed the way fabric looks on our bodies.

So what Kibbe says is that with elastic in our clothing, the silhouette stops being about the externally imposed shape of the clothes on our bodies and starts being about the way our bodies are shaping the clothes we wear.

I don't really know that I found my personal style. I learned a lot about the kinds of shapes and colors and fabrics that I like. I think the main thing that I figured out was what fantasy the idea of finding your personal style is serving.

So at the time, the argument was that their testimony would establish a pattern of behavior from Weinstein.

I do want to quickly name. She has said that he was convicted on the basis of three women's stories. That's not correct.

She is making a lot out of the fact that a lot of the women who have accused Weinstein stayed in contact with him after their alleged attacks. How does someone get raped over five years?

Essentially, every time that in American culture it looks as though women are making some sort of social or political progress, that's very rapidly followed by a period of intense backlash where people announce that this movement has gone too far, it's overreached, we have to roll it back and go back to a time when things are more sensible.

One of the things that Susan Faludi says that I think is important to note here is that It really doesn't matter whether the feminist movement actually made any gains in this moment of apparent overreach. It's just that people think that things are changing. So in the MeToo movement, there weren't any real legislative changes. There were a few high-profile arrests.
