Why do so many liberal women date conservative men
Long time lurker of this sub but thought to make this post. For preface I am a liberal guy but am bisexual. Currently in a great relationship with a guy and not interested in dating women. So this isn't a "why don't women date me" post.
So I've been pretty involved in liberal politics in my adult life. Been to plenty of protests, rallies and even worked for a democrat running for local office. Due to this my social circle is filled with like minded people including plenty of women.
Over the years it seems that every single one of my female friends has brought around a conservative boyfriend at some point. Some of them have held their views secret but all of us could tell through comments and obvious discomfort with our political views. Others have been outwardly conservative both in person and on social media.
Recently a female friend started dating a die hard MAGA guy. The type of dude who wears a MAGA hat to the grocery store. Lets just say I was shocked. This was the same girl who went to protests and was outwardly anti MAGA. I asked her and her response was "oh he's only MAGA because he cares about the economy" when his social media is filled with posts that were everything she hated.
I understand that people's views can change but it seems like a really abrupt 180. Going from "I'd never date a conservative guy" to "oh he just cares about the economy" within days.
I've done some internet lurking about it and lots of posts say its a masculinity thing. Conservative men tend to fall into traditional masculinity a lot more (financial provider, family values and such). I'm wondering if any Gen Z women can shed some light on this?
For preface I am a liberal guy but am bisexual.

Someone will say "because women like men who take control in a relationship and conservatives are more likely to do that" and everyone responds "UHHH SOURCE? THIS SOUNDS LIKE ANCIENT PSUEDOSCIENCE" like neighbor you asked the question, this is the answer, you just don't like looking in the mirror that you've asked to look in to.

I'm so fricking tired of women using being submissive as an excuse to not have a personality. I hate bottoms so much it's unreal.

It's just being lazy. Literally just that. Starfish, but for the whole relationship instead.

women and bottoms use the idea of being "submissive" as basically a way to whitewash ever doing wrong. it's always someone else's job to take action, so it's always someone else's fault when something goes wrong or they don't enjoy it. if you refuse to ever pick where you're going out for lunch, it's never your fault if the place sucks and you always get to lord it over the other person for making a "mistake"

This is what happens when you listen to what women say rather than observe what they do

fight club is about how toxic masculinity is bad. That's why they made the protagonist cool and masculine and destructive and handsome

It's like they're gleeful about DEBOONKING things like wolf alpha and other chuddy ideas
The whole idea of there being 1 badass alpha male in a pack is just absolute heresy. But they'll yap all day about tribal matriarchs and how it shows women are totes stronk, let's just ignore the fact all those societies disappeared for no reason
