The Politics of Dating
There are many dating parameters that one looks for when seeking someone to date. Age, race, religion, gender are obvious and common ones. Many dating services add profile analysis and try to find people who meet certain attributes. One parameter that seems to be gaining popularity these days is political ideology.
We're going to talk abut two websites that offer you the option of dating either other liberals or other conservatives, depending on your preference. The two websites and some information about them follows.
Conservative Match - Sweethearts not bleeding hearts. The place for Conservative Singles, Conservative Events, and more. Find people who share your cultural, political and religious values. With a culture that is often hostile to conservative values our goal is to provide alternative resources.
Some of the features they offer include events, forums, two-way matching, private chat (for members), profiles and photos. If you are gay, don't bother -- they won't accept you. If you're Catholic notice this: "If you are divorced according to the civil laws of your jurisdiction but not free to marry in the Catholic Church you may still use the website, however since the Church requires you not to be involved in a romantic relationship without an annulment, you may not use the site for purposes of romantic activities. "
Democratic Singles Network - Your politics say much about you! At Democratic Singles Network you'll meet progressive people with visionary world views - Democrats, Greens, Activists - Left-Thinkers of all flavors are what you'll find at this dating site. It's Free to join and initiate contact with thousands of liberal singles!
On this site's home page, on the left side menu they include two important links, one for pricing, and one for features. It'll tell you basically what you need to know.
The conservative site's Terms of Use is lengthy while the liberal one is brief. But both offer basically the same features. The sites are well designed and easy to navigate.
I didn't register with either of them, so I can't speak to how they actually work. If you have any experience with either one, please let us know.
