[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pets are just as important as politics in this equation. OP- do you have pets?

We've already established that TP is the home of cat ladies. If you're a dog couple then move to [b]Chevy Chase[/b]. Everyone in Chevy Chase has a dog, if your dog is a cat eating dog even better. Politics in CC is very global as in everyone talks about their glamorous global job that is connected to politics.

If you have large sporting dogs and always thought if you weren't a lesbian then Dick Cheney would be your dream guy then head to [b]old McLean[/b]. By old McLean ,the house needs to be near Langley, huge and built before 1980 when McLean turned into people who worked at AOL and now work at some other tech company. Political conversation is all about defense contracts and Reagan era political maneuvers.

If you have a dog breed with the word -doodle or -orky in it then you aren't allowed in old McLean. You'll need to buy one of the huge houses in [b]Great Falls [/b]and just say you live in McLean. Politics lean center right and your neighbors probably voted for Trump (hoping for lower taxes) but wont admit it.  NPR is very popular as everyone has hours in the car with nothing else to listen to during the ride. [/quote]

This post is funny.  We love dogs in Bethesda too!  Rescues and -oodles equally welcome!  It goes with our weird mix of country club types, foreign embassy/IMF staff, brilliant Nih research scientists, military doctors, and government/nonprofit lawyers.  We’re an eclectic bunch living in our old cape cods next door to McMansion tear downs.[/quote]

Yes! Love this descriptor. OP, I would not live in VA as a gay person. Will you be working? At which metro stops or will you drive? Why not DC proper?  [/quote]
