Why is it so hard to meet moderate women?

[Anonymous]

I get along best with more moderate women that don’t stray too hard to either side of the aisle. Do these women exist?

Nope. There are zero moderate women.

Define moderate...

In this day and age "moderate" means republican. When your civil rights are being stripped, it's difficult to remain in the middle. You are either brain washed or fighting. There's very little middle ground.

I vote for moderate candidates, but my ideal politics are far left. It's just that I understand they are difficult to implement, and often they come with stupid stuff attached, like spending with no regard for the national debt. Although now, the right wingers can't complain, because they've done exactly that.

We got married in our 20s, sorry

Exactly!

Women don't want to live in a house with your guns. Get rid of them. The guns are most often used on a female spouse/partner.

There are many. Many of most women who work as managers in business, own businesses, or work in professional service firms are moderate. But moderate Republicans seem to be disappearing.

DH and I both were "moderate" in the 2010s - voting more often for Republican candidates until the first Trump election. Since then we have swung completely to the left. There is no longer a line between financial and social conservatism on one end and financial and social liberalism/progressivism on the other, where people fall somewhere in between the ends for the most part.

I and many women I know are "moderate" in that I am married, straight, white, gender conforming, church going, mom of 3, blonde, have lots of things to talk about besides politics, think my DH and plenty of other men are wonderful, have plenty of beliefs that do not align 100% with, say, AOC. But "moderate" in politics is an oxymoron these days.

If you think being moderate is impossible, you aren’t moderate.

PP who said we all got married in our 20s is pretty much correct, I think.

You also might not know, because I don’t talk about politics with people I barely know.

I was moderate for many years but you would have to be braindead to be "moderate" now.

I have a daughter of my own and can't bear that she will have fewer rights than I will.
No moderation for me.

No you don’t have to be braindead to be moderate. What an absurd position.

I think what I believed to be moderate and what you think is "moderate" are 2 different things. I would be RINO now, and you would be a traitor back when I was moderate.

Were you born a "moderate" or fid you have to dye it to become one?
