conservative men specifically- what is the rationale behind pursuing leftist women? not judging, just curious because the inherent values mismatch seems like it’d a dealbreaker off the bat

Well I’m not super conservative personally but I would say I lean more right than left. In my personal experience more men are conservative and more women are liberal it might just be a game of numbers here honestly

They probably don’t care as much about disagreeing on politics as they do

My close friends parents have an extremely healthy happy marriage with 3 well adjusted and successful kids despite the parents being polar opposites when it comes to politics. The dad (right wing, libertarian-ish) has absolutely no problem with his wife’s politics. He actually likes that she sticks up for herself and what she believes in, even if its not what he believes. But when it comes to the important stuff, family and being a good person, they are completely in alignment.

Besides, the same traits that make women terrible at politics typically make them good at motherhood. The problem is when they start to view every disadvantaged or marginalized person as poor, needy children instead of adults with autonomy.

I’ve seen many of them say they view it as a ‘challenge’ but honestly I think it’s either a fetish/kink or something to do with insecurity

Already downvoted but this is genuinely a thing on yikyak. They make posts about being cool for cracking liberal women all the time in the ‘politics’ and ‘hinge cringe’ channels

The goth/alt girl thing is probably a kink atp but I don’t think they’re fetishizing liberal political views in themselves

I wouldn’t say it’s that they’re fetishizing their political views, it’s more so that they’re bragging about getting laid.. I guess? Idk the logic but there are a concerning amount of posts in that realm that I’ve seen on this app And yes I read the comment thread, I was still giving my input since it’s still an act of pursuit (as stated in the post)

To clarify when I say it’s a feitsh thing I meant lying about their beliefs to get laid. Not that they have a fetish for liberal women
