So in my profile I said Trumpets and religious zealots need not apply. While I can be a friend with a Republican, sometimes, I draw the line in romantic partnerships. My body, my rules. I got the following response:

"Hey I was scrolling through the profiles and your pic caught my attention...I read your profile and you proclaim to be a democrat,,, you said being a Trump supporter would never work out ,,, what you said says a lot about the party you follow ,,,Never being accepted unless it's by your own rules and beliefs ,,,That's the problem with the democrat party ,,,They won't meet you half way ,,,good luck on that ..."

1. Well, that proves the point of your profile, doesn't it

Funny how the men you’re weeding Will Not be weeded out without offering an opinion about how wrong you are. Despicable knuckledraggers.

2. My nutty right-wing mother started saying it in the '90s:"Liberals are the intolerant ones!"

[BWdem4life]

8. I'm intolerant of walking talking breathing pieces of sh*t who breathe through their mouths

drag their knuckles and have vitriol running through their icy veins while believing in their absolute superiority and insisting that the world conform to their version of reality.

My intolerance increases at an ever-increasing rate when other people who deserve better suffer real-world consequences of these f*ckwads voting with their lizard brains.

I was gonna say some really mean things about them but I'll just stick with facts.

3. There is no "halfway" about right and wrong.

4. camera on shoulder, showing hand brushing off dandruff...

End of encounter, properly categorized.

5. My best friend is a Republican

He's Republican because his parents are. But he's also pro-choice.

Anyway, it's just where I draw a line in the sand. No one who thinks I shouldn't have bodily autonomy is going to share my bed. No way, now how.

6. Republicans also have their dating preferences.

(They don’t care if you’re married or not)
Some reports have also noted that, once a person gets past the initial sign-up page, he or she can choose "happily married" or "unhappily married" as a status before finalizing a profile and meeting new potential dates.

A dating website promising to match pro-Trump supporters has removed the main photograph from its homepage after local media identified one of the people portrayed in the image as a North Carolina conservative activist who has a child sex conviction.

Nice MAGA hats!

Our right wingers hate it when their straight conservative republican family values are put on display.

7. Anyone who doesn't say Democratic Party

Has drunk the kool aid and will blame everyone else with no introspection.

[Straw Man]

9. I can think of two appropriate responses to that.

Either "KMA" or "GFY."

[cynical_idealist]

15. The second would be best

The first might be perceived as an invitation
:}

[Straw Man]

16. Agreed.

Hadn't thought of that.

[BurnDoubt]

10. There's a different brain in every head.

Why would you lay down with someone who can’t respect your sensibilities? That’s submission, not Love.
I just posted on the “Tim Bradley” story here with a similar theme not ten minutes ago. He was insulted that he can’t beat his wife for her “insubordination”. Here’s a tip: If “No" isn’t an option, you’re not Free.

11. Trumpets sre, by definition, Pedophile-philes

[Demobrat]

12. Meet them halfway? I don't want to meet them at all.

And I certainly wouldn’t have one in the house. They worship a rapist. All I need to know.

[TexasBushwhacker]

14. Yes, if they are at the bottom of a hole

It's not my responsibility to crawl halfway down to meet them, when they want to stay in the hole and drag me down there with them.

They don't understand that a woman can be happily single without being a lesbian or a man hater.

Would I like to have a compatible man in my life? Absolutely. Do I NEED a man in my life to be happy? Absolutely not. IMHO, I would think a confident man would like that. I would be with them because I enjoyed their company and DESIRED them. Yes, even moldy oldies like me (age 69) want relationships based on compatibility and desire. Go figure.

13. Quite a meltdown

Even for a snowflake.
