Would you date or marry a conservative?

So, I got friendzoned by Beholderess ;_; and Rott is yet another man vying for Loni's hand.

To stay on topic: dating someone of differing views, as long as the person is civil, is not an issue. After all, dating as I understand it, it's not such a commitment. You can always decide to stop dating if you're uncomfortable.

Honestly, I'm more concerned about whether my partner would get sick and tired of hearing me rant about the blackness of my sooooooooooooul.

"Speaking as a mopey person, I was wondering to all you happy/well-adjusted tropers would you be interested in dating someone on the emo side of the emotional spectrum."

Get out.

That post was made tongue in cheek, of course.

Oh. Well. Alright then.

This one does not see friendship as lesser to romance in any way.

If we disagree, that much, at least, we have in common

Whose tongue, and whose cheek?

Ideally, romance is friendship + sex. Which would make romance > friendship, unless sex has a negative value ...

That’s the epitome of privilege right there, not considering armed nazis a threat to your life. - Silasw

^ Chaste romance.

Also fuckbuddies.

Thread hop:

Being conservative or democratic has no bearing on my relationship with that person. Why would it after all?

The emotions of others can seem like such well guarded mysteries, people 8egin to 8elieve that's how their own emotions should 8e treated.

Conservatives are frigid bitches, and democrats are dirty hippies.

Yes and white men have small penises. Therefore every woman should go for a black man.

Pretty much.

White Americans have the biggest penises on average, according to studies.

So feck off

If you don't like a single Frank Ocean song, you have no soul.

Erect or flaccid? Cause only the first counts.

Who does these studies?

But seriously, I would almost prefer to marry someone who disagrees with me so long as she isn't an asshole about it. Gives us a wide variety of topics to talk about.

Very brave men and wome do, Ramus.

Well, I am a social conservative, so I likely would. But I've dated my share of liberals. Marrying one, though? That's got to be difficult... I mean the wedding night... yeah... that would be very difficult...

What, no interest in kinky liberal sex?

Oh, I have no problem with kink - especially being tied up. It's the glove that's going to pose the problem. If you know what I mean.

Oooooooooooh.

Yeah... of course, that likely would have come up long before we got hitched... and a solution acceptable to both parties likely would have been found if things had gotten that far.

Of course, that has more to do with religion in particular tha actual political preference... Catholics who sweat that kind of stuff aren't necessarily conservative (goes on long rant about hippies and the 1968 Democratic Convention).
