Just the thought of earning less than their wives is enough to make some men in the US switch their vote from Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump, a study suggests.
Pollsters found that reminding men about gender issues, specifically whether they earned more or less than their partner, led to a huge 24-point swing away from the female presidential candidate to the male alternative.
The matter did not seem to be divided along party lines – there was no such shift among participants asked to choose between Mr Trump and Democrat runner Bernie Sanders.
Instead, the survey suggests large numbers of men who perceive a threat to their masculinity will lurch away from the idea of a female president.

Man I had a dreadful flight
Cretins.
Your wife comes home and announces she has been given a huge raise. She now makes substantially more than you! Do you:
A: Dance naked through the neighborhood unable to contain your wild joy?
B: Sulk and start visiting trumpforprez.com?
B !
Fortunately, the US electorate comprises far more women than men.
I have a sneaking suspicion that many of them will make sure to vote for Sec. Clinton.
