    No, it would have been offensive and weird if made towards women.

    Women barely have had the right to vote for 100 years, women have only recently been allowed things like no fault divorce, and women do not have full reproductive control. The threat of forced subjugation of women is still a real threat and goes on in some parts of the world.

    These men are not at risk of losing the right to vote, losing reproductive control, and becoming subjugated due to the irrational doctrine of a religious cult. These men are very unlikely to be forced to marry an alpha male like him in a post-apocalyptic society.

    If a group of attractive young women had taken a photo of themselves going “We’re Gen-Z and are glad we voted for Harris” and some older Republican male said “When the economy tanks, women like this are going to be begging to become my second and third wives because the economic situation will really be that terrible” literally no one would care and people would find it mildly distasteful at best.

    This is blatant biphobia and evaluating this situation any other way is wrong.
