      I'm really not used to girls being against gay marriage.

      The worst is when you're in a long-term relationship with a liberal or an open right-winger and all the problematic opinions keep coming with every new event. It's always become a tug-of-war between trying to respect them as a person and questioning if they're a sociopath.

          I don't even think I'd date a socdem anymore unless they're on board with Under No Pretexts. A previous partner terrified me when I said "we might have to run the Canadian border at some point to escape Trump and his militias" and she refused to touch a gun then or learn how to safely handle one prior to needing to use it. Ideology isn't a test of their opinions so much as it is a test of how they'll respond to conditions, and as conditions worsen they'll either tune out or become reactionary.

                Y'all are making me feel lucky to live in a place where Berniecrats are the mainstream and it goes left from there.

                    It's called any urban area on the west coast, Santa Cruz or north.

              That very much limits how far the relationship could go. Like I maybe could fuck a conservative in a threesome with someone I didn't hate. A could bang a lib a few times before getting bored and leaving. (And have a few times, lol) But I don't think I could go as far as living with someone and making them a large part of my life unless they were some kind of real leftist. I would never be able to let my guard down and be truly open if they weren't.

        Lol....not sure if she still is but my ex and baby mamma, believe it or not, was a 4channing, gamer gate, sargon of ahkad watching, SJW fear mongerer when we split. Pretty sure she's at least anti trump but.....yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaah....suffice it to say we both took *exceptionally * divergent political paths and outlooks on life over the past decade or so. "Irreconcilable differences" is one way to say it I guess. Thankfully I have primary, and parallel parenting and disengagement is easier then ever in the modern era but still...god bless my poor kiddo for being torn between the two of us.

      Not on the dating apps what with the pandemic and all...but tinder aside I usually have my politics in my profile. Cuts down the prospects, but at this point I'll take that over another lib asking me my hogwarts house to see how compatible we are. Spoilers: 0%.

      As for tinder....judge me all you want but I'll 100% hate fuck a fascist given the opportunity.

          Conservative women are trash at sex. They just kinda lay there. I don't have first hand experience, but my friends who have banged conservatives all attest to this.

          What I do have experience with is leftists are wild in bed. Men, women, and everything in between, they are fun and understand how to use mind games and stuff sexually. Libs tend to be like "ok, I wanna sex now, let's go to bedroom and just now am I gonna bring up sex stuff and act sexually in any way". No leadup, no fun, almost stressful.

        Reminds me of the time I was in a conversation with two American veterans and I agreed with them talking about how the government just uses them and then throws them away, and most of the benefits they are supposed to get are fake. They assumed I must have been in the army because I showed a little empathy twords people fucked over by the military conning them into joining. They were genuinely shocked when I said I wasn't.
