Young Women's Evolving Ideology | | | | The Data: Forty-one percent of U.S. women aged 18 to 29 identify as liberal, surpassing both their male age peers and women and men in older age groups. Political and Social Context: Young women's identification as politically liberal increased modestly between 2001 and 2014, at the same time significant societal and political events were occurring. However, it rose to a new high of 34% in 2015, after which it rose to as high as 44% (in 2020 and 2021) and is 41% thus far in 2024. Mirroring their heightened liberal self-identification, today's young women also hold more liberal views on specific issues, particularly the environment, abortion and gun laws.
