Why are there Women, Hispanic, Black and Gay Republicans?

8. It's the money and/or religion, just like anyone else

I knew a gay mormon who wasn't born into it, he converted. It didn't make any sense at all. He claimed to appreciate their culture of community service and sound business principles in spite of their open hatred towards him.

And conservatives think from different perspectives than us. GOP has done outreach based on conservative religious issues (those evil liberals are such sinners!) and to educated professionals and business people (those lazy liberal bums are taking your money!) and so on. Many on the GOP side will deliberately misrepresent what liberals are for to demonize us.

Many women, minorities, and gay people had to work twice as hard for half the benefits because of discrimination and some do see the appeal in GOP's "I got mine F those other people" policies. Unfortunately.

An Indian blogger claims its easier to get dates with pretty blond republican girls, for example. Because the republicans are so openly racist, its easy to quickly find the ones who are not. Plus like in Dinesh D'Sousa's and Laura Ingraham's case they can also bond over a mutual hatred of the gays. While with liberals the prejudice is more subtle so you can be in a relationship with one for a while before finding out she looks down on you as a charity case.

Those who might be interested in traditional gender roles would also find GOP policies more appealing. This includes traditional minded women who long for the old ways and think the feminists are ruining society somehow.
