In this episode of FEPS Talk, Policy Analyst Matteo Dressler sits down with Dr. Gefjon Off to unpack emerging differences in the political attitudes and voting patterns of young men and women.

Drawing on Gefjon’s own research and insights from a rapidly evolving field, we explore whether young women are truly growing more progressive while young men gravitate to the right—and, if so, what these shifts mean for progressive policymakers as they chart a path forward.
