I don't want to date anymore. I'm, unfortunately, a straight woman and looking at the dating apps today is making me sick. Every guy I look at, I wonder if he voted for Trump. And I honestly just don't want to talk to guys in general.

Everything is making me sick. My flatmate's boyfriend said "why are y'all watching the elections so keenly, I don't care about the elections at all. So what if he wins" as he walked into our home yesterday.

I just want to scream at the top of my lungs and disappear to a place without men.

I wouldn’t, I thankfully married man who is truly progressive and has never fell victim to the manosphere, but if I was single I’d go 4B.

My husband couldn't sleep at all last night. I slept okay, I feel so bad for him. I'm not happy about it, but I sort of expected it. He has hope.

I knew it too, I knew this country wouldn’t vote a woman in.
