For those who put “No Republican” or “No Trumpers” on your dating profile....

Honestly most men I general don’t want to date a woman with a child. This has nothing to do with politics.

Same.

That's why we do it. Bye!

You do appreciate that all such a requirement says is that you're unable to have a conversation with someone with whom you disagree. That's a death knell for any relationship as even the most compatible people occasionally disagree.

Wrong. It says I don’t want to. I’ll be cordial and polite to you if I see you at work, but it’s the height of entitlement to think that you deserve a date. I’m glad to hear you “run for the hills!” Thanks for not wasting my time (and yours!)

The whole "no one will date me" routine that conservative men have been doing since 2016 is as sad and creepy as ever.

I hate questions like these. As an Independent who has dated both liberal and conservative men, political party has little to do with things. I’ve dated wonderful liberal men and many liberal men who were abusive, egotistical, and misogynistic. I’ve dated many wonderful conservative men and some who were terrible men. It’s really about how they were raised and their values. A political party doesn’t make someone good or bad or can sum a person up.

Trump lovers are so weird they're all "sure I believe abhorrent things but why won't people date me?" lol let me see.

+10000 they can’t seem to understand that it’s not interesting to others.

Never had a liberal man ghost me because of it. Just the conservatives.

I’m a liberal guy in DC, so I never really needed to use those kinds of screeners on my dating profile. But most of my women friends have similar statements on their dating profiles. Guys hiding their Republican identity is apparently a big issue in the Acela Corridor dating markets.

Discuss. Any funny stories about this issue?

This has never once happened to me, although it’s on my profile.

How do you know their political party? It’s well known most men don’t want to date a single mom with a kid. It has nothing to do with political party even though you keep trying to make it like that.

No it says she only dates people with certain morals.

Isn’t that the same as Christian dating sites, farmer dating, Jewish dating?

You struggle with logic, don't you? Political beliefs are not the same as moral beliefs.

In 2021, I’m the age of Trump, yes, they most certainly ARE the same thing. That’s the point. There’s a right and wrong side of history right now. If you choose to be on the wrong side, you deserve whatever shunning you get.

Yup. I've long exited the dating pool, but I was in early in the online dating thing and never once gave a thought to whether any potential date was a Democrat or a Republican. And I was literally in politics until my mid-30s.

I find most people I know middle of the road. They agree with some issues from both the Republicans and the Democrats. The ones on the further ends of the spectrum are the most inflexible. To me that mindset would seem to carry over into a relationship. Who wants to date someone who wouldn't see your point of view if you disagreed - politics or otherwise.

I do mention that I'm far left. I'm very involved in local politics and organizing, so if someone can deal with me spending a significant amount of time going to events and meetings, it won't work.

If you dated before the Trump era, this is irrelevant. I am also long out of the dating pool, never put political stuff on my profile, but absolutely would after Trump.

True.

But more like I vote for abhorrent policies but it has nothing to do with morality it’s just a difference of opinion.
