[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How strongly does she care about politics? Does she bring it up often? Does she believe in conspiracies?

I'm married to a conservative (social and fiscal) who gradually leaned further and further right over the years. When we were dating I was a democrat, then I became an independent and still consider myself a true independent. H, on the other hand, kept moving right. His thinking is pretty black and white. He used to be a moderate on environmental issues, but has abandoned that in favor of mocking global warming concerns. He consumes right wing talk show mania all the time and is embracing conspiracies. Now he's anti vax as well. We have two young kids. I've set some boundaries for our marriage, but the struggle has been very real, very tough. If you're considering a serious relationship, one that might result in children, then think hard again.

OP here. She keeps up with current things going on but doesn’t watch the news all of the time because she said she doesn’t want politics to run her life. I agree. I’m definitely very into her and would like a family. I’m considering her for a serious relationship.

These are her stances ( conservative)

- Wants the border wall
- supports police ( also supports bad cops going to jail like Derrick Chauvin). 
- lower taxes 
- less government 
- against socialism 
- big supporter of second amendment rights 
- Hates BLM/Antifa. She doesn’t think BLM cares about black people, more so as they just want to push an agenda
- Pro life but understands that’s not everyone’s viewpoint. She is a big supporter of Defunding Plan Parenthood because of the racist Margaret Sanger, and her hate for black people.   
- very liberal on gay rights 
- Supports trans to an extent, but believes they shouldn’t be allowed in women’s sports

[b]She has a “ what right is right, and what’s wrong is wrong” mentalit[/b]y.

And what do you believe?

More importantly is this how you want your children raised, keep in mind that people generally become more conservative and more rigif with age and parenthood not less.[/quote]

Wanted to add that for me  what I have put in bold is the most troublesome thing on the list. Flexibility in thinking is needed for a long-lasting relationship and raising kids. How does she respond  to you ( or other people ) challenging her beliefs?[/quote]
