I find liberals are more progressive about nearly every social issue you can think of, including equality, race issues, gay rights, and reproductive freedom. They're also less likely to use some form of religion to justify their views of how people should be treated by others.

The problem with the "women are more altruistic" explanation is it fails to explain why British women vote more conservatively than men.

The liberal/progressive wing of any government is usually the first to support women's rights.

If you look at the breakdown of voting. Married women vote conservative while single women vote liberal. I guess that single women want the gov't to be their support, while married women can rely on their husband.

Swift Wings, the problem with the "women are more altruistic" explanation is that it claims that there are inherent differences between men and women. For that much they are "more altruistic", they are less something else, such as "practical".

Women like the idea of helping others, and the liberal agenda is usually about government programs that help people.

That's because they promote a world where ALL people can have choices in their lives whereas many conservatives would like one where everybody fits into a neat little box and they should stay there and be happy instead of wanting to do something else in their lives besides the ones expected of them based on their gender, religion, or race.

That question is framed so strangely, but I think women tend to vote liberal because many women are in touch with Humanistic values, which are closest to a liberal world view.

Because it sounds like the womanly thing to do?
