Its in regard to the individual. I personally don't like hardliners.
Too conservative is tied by tradition too much, too rigid, closed minded and act like ants its in their pants.
Too liberal is a problem as well as these people tend to show no restraint, and reject some good tradition for the sake of being progressive which isn't good.
A healthy balance of both is always my choice.
It's sad but nowadays I'd imagije it would be better to date someone who you politically align with, at least generally speaking.
I agree
The important thing is if they're tolerable and can tolerate your views and you can have amicable conversations about the political topics. If you can hear each other out. I also think it's better to date someone of opposing views, provided it's amicable and tolerable. You will be challenged in a healthy way.
I mean, that's a personal choice.
I personally don't find conservative women in any way attractive or dateable, so my choice would be a liberal.
But, ideally, I wish to date someone who identifies as neither.
The label I most want to hear is either left-leaning moderate/libertarian or apolitical (in the actual meaning of the word).
I would never date a conservative girl. I'm a liberal, I want my partner to be equally respected and share responsibilities. I want her to express her ideas and listen to mine and then we'll decide who's idea is better.
It's 21st century, in my view, we should accept the change and live according to it. Men and Women are equally capable of doing things. There's nothing a woman can't do what a man can and Vice versa.
I prefer a partner to be liberal so that we have similar ideas and ideology.
It's just my view, I have no problem with conservative people. It's their way to do things and I respect them and I want them to respect my ideology as well.
Peace ☮️
Cons because they are more family oriented and not part of the slutty party animal crowd who all go around sleeping with each other and date different people every week. And were raised with those kind of morals.
Most people are moderates so find one that leans slightly left if you like that sorta thing or slightly right if that is more your speed. Anything too extreme on the left or right is bad news. I prefer scientific people over religious/superstitious so I would go slightly left, just like any smart person would. :)
conservative women cook, take care of their appearance, want kids and a family, will stay home with the kids, and will not yell at me when i tell racist jokes or police my opinions
left wing women... are the opposite of everything i just said, why would i want to date a left wing women? they are easy sex sure but no fun at all
Be careful though, “conservative” women can easily use that label and secretly be a liberal. Look at Tomi Lauren, she supports abortion and recently bashed men even though she probably slept her way to the top. She also doesn’t have kids or a husband smh.
My problem is I'm all over the political map. Give me an issue and I may fall in with either party. I usually date liberals though as my vegetarianism usually puts off conservatives. Not that I'm preachy about it, it's just hard for many to wrap their head around. Also the fact that I'm not Christian is also a turn off for many conservatives so it's just easier to find liberals who are compatibile.
There’s a big difference between classic liberals and leftists who have this hive mind, where you walk on eggshells not to trigger them. I lean right, but have dated classic liberal girls, and have had great political discussions, but try that with a leftist, they start calling you names and saying you “triggered them” (seriously!).
The best thing is don’t date an extremist from right or left.
Neither !! Political choice is an illusion , both " sides " piss in the same pot and work for their banking Cartel masters... NOT for the people. The so-called " liberals " are very far from truly liberal , I do not date , but if forced to choose at gunpoint , it would not be the loud , brainwashed neo-Stalinist's , that is for sure.
Conservatives. I'd say they typically treat me better. They seem more responsible and principled in terms of dealing with people.
So liberals are crap?
From what I've dated yeah mostly.
I believe you☺️
Conservatives are generally the safer choice for those who adhere to and cherish more traditional socioeconomic and religious values. Liberals are sure as hell a LOT more fun to be with if one is willing to be accepting of their personal values that are - by many conservatives- viewed as iconoclastic to day the very least.
... to say* the very least.
Not fond of either and anyhow comes down to the person ultimately
Those are such broad umbrellas that it's hard for me to make a choice on who would be better to date. Personally, I'd rather date a conservative woman since our views on life, public policy and morality are more likely to be a compatible. I'm sure that there are amazing liberal (not leftist) women out there, but I don't see myself in a lasting relationship with one, unless she was maybe a blue dog Democrat type of person.
it's better to date the one you more identify with. While politics doesn't directly determine compatibility, it will strongly affect values, which does determine compatibility. If you try to start relationships with people who don't share your values, well you don't have to share all of your values, but you need to at least share some.
Liberal, they are generally more accepting of views, ideas and experiences outside of a narrow spectrum.
From what I've seen from cancel culture, that does not seem true. It's their way or you will be attacked.
Liberals are the most narrow-minded, intolerant people on Earth. They're already beating people to death for not towing their agenda, where have you been?
'Cancel culture' has been going on for years on the right. How often do you hear a person on the right speaking against the established norms? They all speak as one, look at the QAnon Moto, going together as one. Its just found a home on the fringes of the left in recent times. Conservatives cannot tolerate any change from their bubble of comfort, they dont want to have to look at a gay couple holding hands, be asked to do anything that, while legal, violates their sincerely held beliefs. Its all culturewar all the time, there's no ideas as that would require changing from the status quo, which isn't working. At this point, burning it all down may be the only remaining option.
Good lord you are delusional.
The status quo was working just fine, it brought us the safest, most prosperous, most tolerant and most free society the human race has ever known. Poor people today have more luxuries than the most elite monarchs from just 100 years ago.
Was there some work still to do? Of course, there is always room for improvement.
You have fallen for the smoke and mirrors that somehow there are people who are oppressed in the United States. There aren't. You believe racism and sexism run rampant when nothing could be further from the truth, it's all just a ploy to advance communism.
It’s funny how many on the right, when confronted with facts or ideas that they don’t like go straight to name calling and loose all objectivity. Oh well, this is one of the many reasons why polite discourse is impossible.
You didn't present any facts, you presented fringe opinions that there is no way to respond to other than with name calling as it's just too absurd.
@ImSparkly- you start by saying the right is responsible for cancel culture, then, remarkably, finish the same reply with implying that burning it all down is the only response.
Can you see why someone like me would think you must be delusional? by the way, saying you might be disillusioned is not name calling.
Also, I’m still looking for a single fact in your words.
@Girther10 Doublethink and gaslighting in as many comments.
I guess me cause I'm neither I don't subscribe to this government's two party false dichotomy both owned by the Juice, but I'm far from an Anarchist, and I hate commies and race traitors.
Question: Who created and maintained communism in Eastern Europe?
Hmmmm. I have seen tbe worst of each.
Conservatives I met were classist and stuck up, but loved Jesus...
Liberals I met were classist and stuck up, but against racism. Tolerating rich ethnic people...
So I don't know...
I meet a lot of folks who "claim to love Jesus". Some of the biggest liars, deceivers and greediest people I've ever met had claimed to be good Christians. The KKK claims to be doing the "work of God". It's sad.
Neither 😂 I find that if they identify as either they are very passionate about politics. Now this is of course an assumption but one that i think might be true
😂😂😂
