Fairly or not, that's the way things are perceived, that Republicans are the party of masculinity, muscularity and conservative white men and that Democrats are the party of LGBTQ, women and beta males.

I think that's unfair and not entirely accurate, but you have to play on the field you are on, not the field you wish you were on.
