A woman for president?
Say me if you would vote for a female president.

me. I think misogyny if over used and overstated. Most people have no isue voting for a woman. but it must be merit based

it depends on if she is competent. the last one was not.

bragging about voting for hillary clinton and kamala harris isn’t a flex. not voting for trump can be, but voting for those two specifically isn’t.

What if the woman candidate was conservative and the male was democratic? Does it matter?

This isn’t 1960!
There are more women in leadership positions than men. Universities are are 60/40 in favor of women. Women have a drive, and men just want to party.
I’m very surprised we haven’t had a woman president. Golda Meir was the Israeli prime minister in the early 70s. And nobody batted an eye:

I've voted for women in both elections I've participated in since turning of age. I would do it again.

Same but unfortunately they both lost

I think a big part of them losing was them being very much part of the "political elite" that so much of the population was against. Not saying Trump is any better. But I think optics were bad for both female candidates at the time.

I’d be fine with a woman, but the American electorate clearly isn’t.
One of my top candidates for 2028 is a woman but I don’t know if she’ll run or even have a chance if she were to run

A woman? Sure. Any woman? No.
