It’s official: Not only is President Donald Trump causing the world to heat up; he is responsible for cooling things down in the bedroom.
ELLE Magazine published a real gem on Thursday, blaming Trump for — you guessed it — reduced libido. Writer Whitney Reynolds laments that after the election, she asked herself: “How could I think about dating or even just getting laid when we were absolutely all going to die?”
Reynolds calls it “Trump-based sexual anxiety,” and backs up her own pathetic sentiments with those of her fellow snowflakes:
Vivica, 32, confesses that her sex drive has “tanked” due to her fear of “a lack of control over [her] body.”
Ellen, 34, explains that after a day of keeping up with the anxiety of “reality” under the Trump administration, she and her husband are “keyed up and distracted” and “too tired or stressed out for sex.”
Karin, 26, finds herself “not even remotely in the mood” after “being sickened and terrified” by the news all day. As a nursery employee, she spends all of her “emotional energy on worrying about the infants and families in [her] care, what will happen if their services get cut, will we all get killed in a nuclear war anyway?”
Could this be the underlying reason why Trump has caused so many young couples to split?
Of course, the article would not be complete without the “expert advice” of NYC-based therapist Abigail Zackin, who notes that “Some people are psychologically organized that sex is the furthest thing from their minds during a crisis because they’re too busy regulating their emotions through other means.” Unfortunately, Snapchat filters and Unicorn Frappuccinos are only ephemeral diversions from the crushing reality of Trump’s America.
This is yet another example of the anti-Trump hysteria among snowflakes. Conditioned to believe that the world should be a “progressive” haven, and brainwashed by the MSM’s narrative that the sky is falling, these liberal millennials can’t even function properly under the reality that Trump is calling the shots. When you’re a snowflake, every day under Trump is a crisis and “safe spaces” are hard to come by.
Rather than leaving her audience depressed and frustrated (in more ways than one), Reynolds closes the piece on a “hopeful” note. While admitting that “for many of us in the post-Trump world, expressing that love — even self-love — through sex isn’t possible yet, four years “isn’t forever,” and “there is some spark of hope in the world that yes, we will be horny again.”
Trump-Pence 2020, anyone?
