You started a thread the other day wanting a dialogue. I attempted to engage with you, and you disappeared after the first post, Spock.
But here in this thread, I am the walking antithesis of that graph as are my mother and aunt.
Of course, I only have my brother-in-law on that graph who fits the male profile, but I don't know how he actually votes. I only suspect. I guess my cousin in on their too, but he's extremely successful for not having his education.
Then there would be my father's side of the family ... I have an uncle who likely votes left who has easily made his million and doesn't (or didn't last I knew) have a degree at all.

The chart reflects that "educated white women" lean more democrat, but there isn't any mention of the fact that a) more women are being recruited to colleges, and b) colleges already espouse and promote a culture that is nearly 100% in step with the democrats anyways.

That is part of the problem. Every wants to make educated a synonym for smart and it's just not. Educated is the opposite of ignorant, but dumb and ignorant are not synonymous.
And someone without high degrees of formal education isn't necessarily ignorant too.

World wide - women are choosing education over children and marriage.
The future looks interesting to me.
You mean sterile?

She means the basis for the movie Idiocracy.
She just doesn't know it.
The people without degrees in my family are the ones with the most money, at the end of the day.
My father never finished high school and he runs rings around structural engineers, for instance. He made his money showing them how to apply their "intelligence" to the actual real world.
So I've no idea why people would equate a degree with intelligence, much less success.
A form of elitism, I suppose.
As to the OP, it would be interesting if they did the same study with Americans, not just white people.

Another interesting interpretation.
Which also has nothing remotely close to my post.

Exactly, when women decide that they should not have children, we end up making ourselves extinct. What an exciting future that will be.
Can you imagine the last old geezers waddling around like poor old Lonesome George?

I just read an entire first page where everyone was discussing the subject of the article without questioning who wrote it and where do they come from and even who pays them?
yikes, this is not good
