...i WANTS TO KNOW WHOOOO?

I can pin-point the time my oldest friendship started to go from “bff’s of 30 years” to “wishing each other happy birthday on fb”.

I am ok with that kind of Republican - but if he’s still turning out voting for complete assholes on election day, all this “calming down” is really not worth anything.

You know, there’s a lot my girlfriend and I disagree on but I really don’t think I could be in a relationship with someone whose politics just fundamentally opposed my humanity as a black man in this country, same way I know she couldn’t date some “close the borders Mexicans took ur jerbs” douchenozzle.

I’ve been weeding them out. Carpooling, cocktail parties, yes. But when you tell me how gay can be cured, blacks are scary and picketing abortion clinics is God’s work...nope. It’s way too hard and exhausting. Plus, honestly, I was wasting so much of my time processing and calming down my ragestroke from all the…

If one of my kids married a tea bagger or a republican that is ok with the parties direction, I would feel I failed as a parent at raising a moral and caring person.

Thank you for your service to women's health.

Forget having kids getting married, I have a hard time keeping anything deeper than a passing light friendship with serious conservatives. Many of them are WONDERFUL, personally-kind people who would give you the shirt off their back, but one too many conversations about how the gays want to fuck our school kids or…

My kids? I don’t want my *friends* to marry Republicans. Their hearts are as small as a mouse’s fist and/or they are extremely stupid and bigoted.

When my girlfriend and I started getting serious and discussed meeting her (Catholic) parents, I asked her if it was going to be a problem that I wasn’t Catholic. She just laughed and said “They don’t give a shit about that, they just want to make sure you’re liberal.”

The first time I realized that things had changed this much was when I introduced my parents to my then boyfriend (now fiance) and upon finding out that his family were the most WASPy WASPs ever took me aside and asked, “They’re not Republicans, are they?”

Why would you be happy that your child is marrying someone who belongs to a hate group like the Republican Party?

You know what... I honestly think you’re right on this. Never mind that Obama’s and (both) ideologies are closer to the center than Sanders.

I think my parents would kill my spouse if he turned out to be a republican. I would probably turn off a lot of republicans with my feminist, pro gay and trans rights views and minority rights views.

I truly believe that many GOP lawmakers and citizens are really showing their bias against having a black president. I have never seen such a divide against one president. Even Bill Clinton was respected on many levels that Obama has not seen. If the president says the sky is blue, the GOP will fight him on this and…

If either of my kids marries a hipster trans off-the-grid vegan who wants to invent a new, shared last name I would say “Mazel!” and buy them mixing bowls. If they came home with a legit Conservative...I would panic. I do not long for the days when POC did not have Civil Rights (1964 wasn’t so long ago people). I do…

if you marry a Republican, chances are you’re gonna have to deal with some homophobia.

I was warned before taking my current job with Planned Parenthood it would be polarizing for future employers. Jokes on them. I’m never quitting.

I just did the test to see how partisan I am, and I came out as -0.4 Democrat, which is interesting, because I’m a Scottish socialist and Democrats are seen as ridiculously right-wing in the UK. Republicans are off the scale.

when i was interviewing for jobs in finance i was told to remove my leadership role in the “college democrats club” from my resume because it would be too “polarizing”.
