Gender Gap Growing

Ed Driscoll posts an interesting chart showing how young men from four first world countries on three continents are trending conservative while their sisters are going the opposite direction. What is going on here?

The chart is paired with an article in The Observer, by a young woman whose take on the data is that smartphones are "poisoning the minds" of young men. I look at the same data and see something - maybe smartphones - poisoning the minds of young women, turning them in latter-day Red Guards. 

It appears the gender gap in ideology is growing. Here we see the old canard that the GOP is "the daddy party" and the Dems are "the mommy party" is actually the case.
