I voted for Kamala Harris. I think the Democrats did offer some policies that helped men. They didn't really campaign on them. To matters worse, they tried to appeal to men through shame (vote for us to support women's rights or you're a misogynist) or that it will help them get laid. The message was very condescending and patronizing.

If the want men to vote for them, they need to demonstrate:

1. They understand the issues that men face

2. They care about those issues

3. They have a plan to address the issues.

Finally, I've heard multiple women, with regards to men's issues, say: "It's not women's job to solve men's issues for them." If the Democrats want men to vote for a woman, they're going to need to stop using that phrase. Our president, if she is a woman, will be responsible for addressing issues that both men and women face. If women become leaders in our Democracy, yet continue to blame the Patriarchy when they are in charge, it's not a very good look.
