I've often found this truth deeply contradicting to the perceived reality. From my experiences unmarried women and under 30 women tend to be Liberal yet married women and women over 30 tend to be what I would almost call "Mullah-Esq-Conservative".

I like my women conservative in the streets, liberal in the sheets.

How's anyone actually supposed to vote in your poll when you, yourself, acknowledge that women are as diverse as, well, men?

Something I read a few weeks ago-

Every girl wants a bad boy who is good only for her, and every boy wants a goid girl who is bad only for him. I think there's some truth to that.

Liberal like in spendthrift?
 
All Americans are liberals. You are a liberal nation. You have a warped understanding of the word liberal. Your Founding Fathers were liberals. Inspired by John Locke.

American conservatives are liberals. So are the Australian conservatives - The Liberal Party...

What did Putin say about the transvestite Russian that married a lesbian Russian in Russia the other week? That they should either be put in a mental asylum or immigrate to the liberal United States of America. Americans are liberals. Your constitution is liberal. You are all liberals.

edit- Non-liberals like me and Putin believe that Freedom belongs to the State. Not to the individual.

If your poll had asked about small c conservative and small l liberal, you might have had an interesting discussion. But by asking about Conservative and Liberal, you're asking about party affiliation and that's easily determined statistically from party memberships and exit polling, etc. Demographic analysis is all over the place these days.

Statistically, American women in general lean liberal, no matter what their age or marital status. I have posted statistics directly to you to that effect before. They may become less liberal dependent on those factors, but so do men.

Overall, the factors affecting political ideology are exactly the same for men and women. But women lean more liberal to start with than men do, so they never wind up crossing over into majority conservative. Men overall are always more conservative than women, in every category.

However "women," or "men," for that matter, are nor conservative or liberal as some kind mass unit. At any given age or marital status, a substantial number are on either side, or no side.

So... how about taking individuals as just that?
 
The OP is in dire need of learning the basics of how to write a fair poll.

Americans aren't as liberal as a good percentage of the developed world.

Soooo... "Liberal" is synonymous with "immoral" then, in your view?

Call me crazy, but I'm not sure if our founding fathers would have agreed that sentiment. :lol:
The founding fathers were incredibly progressive thinkers for their time. They thankfully weren't hung up on traditional morality, much like our more enlightened modern European equivalents.

IOW, a couple of them (most notably Jefferson and Franklin) were Libertine scum bags in their personal lives, and you think that was a good thing.

You realize that the vast majority of the men responsible for bringing the United States into existence were actually more "traditional" in terms of their values and morality than their European counter-parts of the same era, correct? Franklin, for example, was rather impressed with the degree of wanton debauchery tolerated in London or Paris that would have been utterly taboo back in the colonies.

In any case, you're confusing your terms. Political and economic "Liberalism" is not the same thing as being morally "liberal." They are fundamentally different things.

Don't be hatin' on my favorite FF- Jefferson is my personal hero. ;)

You people put the rights of the individual over the rights of the state is what I am saying. And yes, you Americans are prudish. The fact that so many of you are god-fearing christians is a significant factor.

Oh, don't get me wrong. He was an important man, who did a lot of great things for our country.

I'm just not sure if I'd list "extramarital slave humping" among his most esteemed accomplishments. :lol:
