Why is it that people often assume women are politically “led” by the men they date, instead of seeing them as fully autonomous people with their own convictions?

You can disagree with Lucas Bravo, criticize his choices, whatever..but it’s crazy how quickly people reduce a politically outspoken woman into someone who must be compromising her beliefs because of a man.

Why can’t she still fully believe what she’s always believed? Are women not capable of holding firm political convictions regardless of who they date?

I feel like we can criticize him without infantilizing her.
