Not unless it was something really terrible.

Only if it affected personal interaction & the like. Otherwise would be idiotic & automatically cuts one off from a good chunk of the population.

I unfriended a guy on facebook because of the non stop Ron Paul, yellow avatar-esque comments. It was cluttering up my newsfeed.

No, but I find conservative women more attractive in general, so it can affect perceptions before you get to know somebody. I have a very good friend who is very liberal, and she is among my favorite people to talk to because she is extremely intelligent. I wouldn't end our philosophical conversations over disagreements (though she said something that made me cringe on Friday).

Trust me on this one. I have never seen so many classy, beautiful, college aged women then I did at the Americans for Prosperity Summit. Young conservative women generally seem nicer, and I am more at ease. My social anxiety (which is extremely intense) disappears at these types of events.

I've never dated a conservative girl. Maybe that's my problem!

I live in urban Canada and would have voted for Mitt Romney if I was American. If I picked my friends based on political ideology, I wouldn't have any. Tongue

They're also harder to get and don't know how to do anything sexually.

No, because most conservative girls I know are not stuck up and haughty. They don't use their bodies and sexuality as a bargaining chip in the relationship. I have yet to have sex with anyone, but I would imagine that personal politics doesn't really extend to sexual performance.

Conservatives are generally Christian or some denomination of Christian. Christian girls are generally innocent. Genuine innocence does not translate well sexually.

Blue avatars are well-represented on my buddy list; I'm pretty open-minded about friendships with people of different viewpoints.

Some issues I feel more strongly about than others, but I wouldn't even necessarily refuse friendship with someone opposed gay marriage.  If they were willing to be friends with me even if they knew that I was gay, then no problem (as long they aren't being friends just to convert me to straight).

I avoid befriending people who are loud about their political views regardless of what those views are.

FTR, I find liberals girls to be rather boorish. Definitely prefer conservative girls, especially those with good home making skills.

lol

I find this entire chain of conversation really hilarious. I've always posted one butthurt dweller meme tonight and don't really wanna do another, but it'd be a perfect opportunity Tongue
