[quote=Anonymous][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]

Another vote here! My daughter is very pretty and kind, doesn't want a meathead, but that's basically who she meets. Her high school guy friends were much more well rounded ... but she can't seem to find those guys in college! (LAC, by the way)[/quote]
