Any of you baws have experience with this?

Is it worth trying to compromise when you disagree on a lot of things? She’s a great girl but unfortunately a liberal. For example, we got into an argument last night about feminism. I said it was stupid and she got pissed and went home. This morning she tells me that she wants to have an “honest sober discussion” about it.

I like this girl but I feel like this is a huge barrier.

Bigger deal nowadays than in my youth. I wouldn't bother with it these days.

She sounds stupid. That’s a much bigger problem.

It is. Dump her and move on. There's at least ONE BILLION other women on the planet, don't hesitate to move on.

You answered your own question. Last thing she wants is you mansplaing anything to her. Cut bait

Yea, I’d move on. This will continue to hinder the relationship. It’s probably better to cut bait now.

I bet it was easier in the past. Now, everything is political and politics are turned up to a 10.

Seems like it would be much more difficult to get along in this climate.

Two simple rules men should live by when dating - never date an Alabama fan and never date a liberal. You just can’t fix stupid so don’t even try.

I don’t have any liberal friends. Damn sure wouldn't date one. Plenty of smart girls out there to bang.

You said that feminism was stupid and you think she overreacted by getting mad? Yeah, sounds like she’s the one with the problem

You had a drunken fight about feminism on a Saturday night? Um yeah, she’s probably not the one dude

Why would you knowingly date someone who is insane? The “crazy eyes” didn’t give her away, or is she a rattlesnake in the sack?

I think it would be hard now.

You can’t marry someone who believes in eight or ten different genders, and give your child a traditional, healthy, childhood.

I avoid self declared feminists. They’re always so unhappy.

It is harder and harder to find educated women who don’t have unhealthy social views.

It is. My most recent SO was very left and it was a factor in ending it. I can deal with reasonable people but if you legit think Trump can be compared to Hitler I don’t want you raising my children.
