Relationship Discussion (non-explicit)
Haha I love this for you! |
You are ok crushing your kids so you can teach your husband a lesson for not following your rules? |
|
Just for context, my wife is from NY, and has hated Trump with a passion, and made our marriage difficult during his administration. I'm not a fan of Trump, but he is the right person for this time.
And my wife voted for Trump this round, she looked around and saw how bad things are going in the US under the Biden administration. She still hates him, but is mature enough to understand the destructive effect of progressive policies. |
| I wonder how many men have any idea HOW personal rape and sexual assault is for many of us women. We’ve either been through it or watched the aftermath of a loved one’s experience. When the access Hollywood tape came out I truly thought that would be a bright line. But it wasn’t at all. People made false equivalencies like all demoncrats cheat on their wives, as if cheating and assaulting people so regularly you bragged about it to a stranger are the same thing. It has fundamentally changed how I think about some people. Nothing is a bright line, apparently. |
This sounds like a fake story but good for you. |
Ok, then get mad at the people you don't understand and won't talk to. That'll work out really well for you in four years. |
It's called SARCASM |
When my wife and I were dating it was very noticeable were were on opposite sides with our politics. I lean right and she leans left. Thought it would be fine but it’s been an issue all through our marriage. She hasn’t spoken to not spoken to me since I confirmed who I voted for. |
When were you dating? If you leaned right say 20 years ago...you believed in free trade (tariffs would be what communist/socialist countries use), sensible immigration/recognize that immigrants actually increase GDP and we actually have more jobs than people, need to contain Russia (although 20 years ago there was some hope Russia might become more Westernized), a balanced budget/limited government spending, etc. Let's just say that is not today's Republican Party, and I doubt your wife was particularly upset about different opinions about free trade and marginal tax rates. |
Bye Felicia! |
| Wow… You all take this personal. What did Donald Trump personally do to you? |
|
My registered democrat wife left the top of the ticket blank because she couldn’t stomach Harris.
I *almost* got her on the Trump train but close enough. Her most important issues are different than mine, but I can say that the idea every Democrat woman in America is frothing at the mouth for more abortion was not accurate. |
Not likely. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160289614000373 https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2012/04/11/what-the-public-knows-about-the-political-parties/#partisan-differences-in-knowledge Those studies show that Republicans are more informed than Democrats. You can see this in the section "Partisan Differences in Knowledge" Not only did "Republicans fare substantially better than Democrats on several questions in the survey," Pew says, but that's "typically the case in surveys about political knowledge." Republicans answered 12.6 of 17 questions correctly, versus 11.4 for Democrats, and Democrats only outperformed the GOP respondents on one policy question. In addition to being more knowledgeable than Democrats, Republicans also have a higher IQ. A social scientist named Noah Carl found that Republicans have a verbal IQ 2-5 points greater than Democrats. In the abstract of his research paper he says: " ... I find that individuals who identify as Republican have slightly higher verbal intelligence than those who identify as Democrat (2–5 IQ points), and that individuals who supported the Republican Party in elections have slightly higher verbal intelligence than those who supported the Democratic Party (2 IQ points)." Also they are better looking too. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/01/10/conservatives-really-are-better-looking-research-says/ This is why women tend to date or sleep with conservative men. They’re more masculine and in better shape . |
| It would be a MASSIVE red flag to remain married to someone who voted for a known and convicted rapist. |
Agreed. Clearly they see no issue with supporting rapists, why would I want to interact with, let alone SLEEP with someone who supports rape and rapists? |
