Putting abortion rights front and center in her campaign, Democrat presidential contender Kamala Harris thought she had found a winning formula in courting women voters.
But it was Donald Trump who found victory, running up the margins on American men, particularly young men.
That young people as a whole tend to be more liberal was no deterrent to a US presidential campaign that capitalized on youth masculinity - tapping into interests such as fighting sports and cryptocurrency, and appearing on male-dominated podcasts.
"If you are a man in this country and you don't vote for Trump, you're not a man," said Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist long focused on the youth vote.
Trump won the presidency with 54% of men voting for the Republican, up from the 51% that supported him in 2020, according to NBC exit polling.
