At the same time, if you're dating someone with different political opinions, it is always important to make sure that tolerance goes both ways. If you can eat her veggies and go to rallies or whatever she wants you to do, then she has to tolerate that you have opinions and desires that will disagree. If you're okay with her dominating your life, then all is good, but I wouldn't make any major sacrifices for someone that wouldn't make the same ones for me.

I do hear what you're saying. But the whole point of my post was for the younger guys out there to not be, "kitty cat whipped." When guys are younger they always want to put the hot chicks on some kind of pedestal. And there is no need for it. Don't get me wrong, I love women! In fact, over the years most of my closest friends have been gals, not guys. However, as time has gone on, it's become very clear that women REALLY DO THINK DIFFERENTLY than men!!! And it has very little if anything to do with political views, but everything to do with the fact that women are wired differently than men.
For example, when a gal asks you what you think, she really doesn't want you to speak, she just wants you to LISTEN. In the short amount of time there is to spend on this post, I could never get into explaining things in any easily understandable way. However, I will add this. Over the years I've learned alot about what women really want, and it's not always compatible with what men might be looking for. Also, I can honestly say that I've helped more than one of my women friends keep their marriage going and growing! And yet I've helped other gals, not with marriage, but with life in general, and all because I LISTEN and DON'T JUDGE 'EM when they tell me things. (And what things they tell...!!!)
Here's one other little tip for you guys out there. Even if the gal you're interested in is a very strong, confident, assertive woman, more times than not SHE WANTS A MAN TO TAKE CHARGE of whatever the situation is, (in general). Yep, LISTEN to her, don't JUDGE her, make her LAUGH, and at times TELL HER THE WAY IT IS! I know there are going to be some women that aren't going to like that last one, but it's true...even if they don't consciously know it!!!
There are very real differences between men and women...but that's what makes it so special. And if you find a good woman that you really get along with, count your blessings and don't screw it up looking for something somewhere else!!!
So ends tonight's lesson...good night.
