Glamour Mag: Being Conservative Is "Most Intimate Problem" (Conservative Women Are Doomed Alert)

Conservative women have an "intimate problem." They can't be honest with liberals lest the latter get offended. Every one knows conservative women aren't real women anyway, at least according to Glamour.

(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie. Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")

Don't worry. After a few weeks of listening to the liberal one whine about "BushLiedPeopleDied", the conservative friend will be gone.

The ideal liberal woman is a Seinfeld woman: she looks pretty, keeps her mouth shut, plays dumb and is a slut in heat.

Er... I think you're taking this the wrong way. To me it sounds like the magazine was just answering a general question about dealing with large political differences between friends, not stating an explicit view of their own.

to be working. (Jerry and Elaine look at each other - enjoying the story) My mother had a Glamour magazine, I started leafing through it..

I personally recommend liberal women for sowing oats and exercising unspeakable demons. Then find a nice girl that you can respect and trust. Maybe it's just me.

How you define "friendship lite": censor your own views or go along with a liberal to avoid upsetting them? I think if the question were reversed, I don't think the columnist would argue its not necessary to be tact. When have liberals shown consideration for conservative feelings? Its not a gender-related question and its still a valid one. I take offense at the notion conservatives have to walk on eggshells to avoid making liberals cry.

On the subject of intimacy, let's get real: Maureen Dowd is still looking for a man.

True statement. But even the girl I marry has to have a least a little of a "bad" side. But only with me. ;-)

Diverty training is just a PC phrase for socialist re-education center.

There is no tolerance for diversity from liberals. We think libs are crazy and brainwashed but not without potential for redemption. Libs think we are selfish meanies. Better than being deliberately evil or a well-meaning red dupe any day.

And to libs who think we are mean, there is no charity in forced contributions to the tax man. What you do when "no one" is looking matters too.

I suspect that all the attractive conservative women are already married to likable conservative guys while I missed the boat being busy with personal survival and such during the hookup years. Now I'm the uncomfortable friend who doesn't have female accompaniment. It's worse having gone past "I wonder how she kisses" to "I wonder what her scam is to screw me over". Accumulated paranoia is so unromantic.

I'm inspired by Clint Eastwood's "Gunny Highway" character in "Heartbreak Ridge". He stooped to reading women's magazines for insight and tried very hard to heed their advice, but ultimately found them wrong because all those articles are written by one gender. What works can not be transliterated into the written word - it's hardwired within us.

Debbie Schlussel, Laura Ingraham and Ann Coulter are still single. So yeah, conservative women do have something of a connection problem. Lovelessness is by no means solely confined to liberals.

Being a conservative woman is an "intimate problem"...

NO NO NOOOO!!!! CONSERVATIVE SINGLE WOMEN!!! LOOK HERE!!! I'M RIGHT HERE!!!! PLEEEEAAAASE LOOK OVER HERE!!! HERE I AM!!!! ME ME ME!!!!!

[NewRomeTacitus]

Lovelessness isn't my problem - I've attained peace with myself after much turbulence and misfortune (see my About page). I fear that our society is suffering a breakdown where the increasing mistrust between career-driven Americans is contributing to our overall decline. Those who do marry definitely utilize modern methods to limit reproduction.

But hey, those illegal non-citizens are doing their best to shore up the shortage! For a supposedly strong Catholic base they have an astonishing rate of unfathered births. That doesn't resemble the Catholicism I was raised in ("All bastards will burn in Hell along with those that spawned them!").

[NewRomeTacitus]

LOL! "Ooh ooh, Mr. Kotter, Mr. Kotter! Ooh! ooh!"

[BobS]

Don't think those women are dateless.

I'm a guy and get my hair chopped every 2-3 months, when I want to. I look at these mags in the trough and just know that they don't relate to women I come in contact with or work with. They are just a bundle of advertisements for various forms of cosmetics and photographers that take pictures of women using those items. With words interspaced between them. Bland to me.

[RockinRight]

I think my chances of finding a good, fun, single conservative female in Akron, Ohio are about equal to my chances of looking out my front window tomorrow and seeing a beach and palm trees.

[pcottraux]

Exactly.



Whatever it takes to get noticed.

[RockinRight]

Tone it down, man. Chicks don't dig guys that are too eager....lol...

[YankeeinOkieville]

laura Ingraham is not single. Sorry.
