Young men turning to the political right is causing women to distrust dating apps, says Atlantic writer

Young men's shift to the political right has complicated the dating world and led to distrust by women of dating apps, according to The Atlantic writer Faith Hill, who appeared on CNN on Thursday. 

Hill argued that women's growing distrust of dating apps stems from men — young men in particular — becoming more conservative while young women are becoming more progressive, leading to the sexes "growing further apart in a lot of ways."

"You see that young men are moving further to the right, young women growing more progressive. And I think, for a lot of women in particular, it can just sort of feel like, ‘This is not a time where I trust men — I feel respected by men. I don't necessarily want to go out and meet strangers who are men,’" Hill said.

According to The Atlantic writer, this social phenomenon is happening during a time when the Trump administration is seen as "stripping away reproductive rights and protections against gender discrimination," which is making women more conscious of their prospective partners' political beliefs.

"And you can see in surveys that there is this kind of resentment among a lot of men, kind of a backlash to ‘Me Too,’ a backlash to women gaining financial independence, going to college more than men now, where, you know, among Gen Z even, far more women who identify as feminists than men," she noted.

Hill contended that there is a "real feeling" among women that the "larger political backdrop is seeping into individual relationships," which is making it much more difficult to trust others.
