[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The extra layer of politics also comes into play. Most women lean liberal, and will not give a non-liberal guy a chance. [/quote]

I was with you... until here.  Take it to reddit.[/quote]

I am the PP. My DD leans liberal, and has unfollowed friends due to politics. I assume she would want to date someone with similar beliefs. I am pretty sure she is not the only one like this on her campus.

She is very focused on academics, and is not trad-wife material. Although her schools leans more liberal, percentage-wise, more guys trend more conservative compared to the women. Then add to that the gender inbalance to the equation. She had a boyfriend for a few months, but it didn’t work out. She hangs out mostly with other young women, and is having a great time. [/quote]

[b]The guys are out there, I have 2 myself. It’s just the frats and teams, that tend to be the social drivers at a lot of schools, have a higher population of conservative guys. [/b] Look at where Joe Rogan, barstool, etc. are popular.  But there are other spots if you look at little deeper.
But, I do understand where you are coming from.[/quote]

This is well put and sums up my daughter's experience. She's not a fan of the frat boys (and they are not particularly drawn to her either) but she finds it really hard to find the other guys because the frats/sports heavily drive the social scene.  She knows there are others on campus (it's not all frat Gods and super geeks) but it's very hard to meet them. [/quote]
