		<description><![CDATA[It probably correlates with several things. Religious people tend to marry more than those who see no value in such sacraments and the religious are also more GOP. Also married people are likely more concerned about leaving their grandchildren in hopeless debt and thus support Republicans who call for fiscal prudence rather than those with no children who have more of a &quot;Let the good times roll&quot; attitude for the present and let the future take care of itself. Also married women get some input from husbands who are more conservative that has some impact on their thinking; while, as any woman will tell you however, the wife sharing her more liberal information with her husband will have no impact.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;So many of these men I see out there anymore are just big babies that happen to be loaded with testosterone…selfish, brooding, ignorant, lack direction…and many of them have college degrees or skills!

Of course, many women are psychotic. I’ve known ones that have really good husbands…and it’s just not enough…nooooo, they want a “bad boy”, they want excitement. Naturally, they get hurt, crash…and do it all over again! or settle for some dud because he’s safe somehow…possibly some kind of self-induced punishment for their mistakes.

Dr. ZhivBlago on July 15, 2012 at 3:51 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

If you are interested in why women fall for bad boys look up hypergamy and the dark triad.

Marriage is especially good for women but a wash, at best, for men.    It would be a good idea if the GOP wised up and started changing the horrible divorce laws so to protect the men who vote for them.]]></description>

Many women would be better off if the man was a decent sort-I don&#039;t know what some of these women are thinking out there (Oh I can guess...&quot;He &lt;em&gt;neeeeeds&lt;/em&gt; me&quot;...&quot;I&#039;ll fix him!&quot;).  There oughta be a law along the lines of &quot;You can&#039;t marry or &#039;date&#039; (obvious euphemism for having sex) a man that can afford tattoos, cigarettes, weed and booze but doesn&#039;t have a car or a job.&quot;

<p>Many women would be better off if the man was a decent sort-I don&#8217;t know what some of these women are thinking out there (Oh I can guess&#8230;&#8221;He <em>neeeeeds</em> me&#8221;&#8230;&#8221;I&#8217;ll fix him!&#8221;).  There oughta be a law along the lines of &#8220;You can&#8217;t marry or &#8216;date&#8217; (obvious euphemism for having sex) a man that can afford tattoos, cigarettes, weed and booze but doesn&#8217;t have a car or a job.&#8221;</p>
<p>So many of these men I see out there anymore are just big babies that happen to be loaded with testosterone&#8230;selfish, brooding, ignorant, lack direction&#8230;and many of them have college degrees or skills!</p>
<p>Of course, many women are psychotic.  I&#8217;ve known ones that have really good husbands&#8230;and it&#8217;s just not enough&#8230;nooooo, they want a &#8220;bad boy&#8221;, they want <em>excitement</em>.  Naturally, they get hurt, crash&#8230;and do it all over again!  or settle for some dud because he&#8217;s safe somehow&#8230;possibly some kind of self-induced punishment for their mistakes.</p>

Yeah, there&#039;s something about those who are married and actively participating in the raising of their children that those of us who are single do not have, regardless of how good we are as persons. There&#039;s some actual psychic or spiritual benefit. It does seem to require an active and willing participation in the process though.

I used to go to a men&#039;s Bible Study where I was one of the few single guys there. I could run rings around them with what I knew about the Bible but I could recognize that most of them were actually better men than I.

Which is what it&#039;s really about after all, anyway.]]></description>

The bottom line for all Democrat policies is retention of political power.  Anything that gets in the way of that is sacrificed.  National security, fiscal sustainability, economic prosperity, social stability, scientific progress, education, etc.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;SSM is so uncommon, even after legalization, to have pretty much no effect on the numbers.

18-1 on July 15, 2012 at 2:48 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

While that might be statistically accurate for now, the liberal media will use it where they can.

For an idea:

Why are there no official government studies of women who have had abortions, to learn what they think and feel after doing the deed.

Why are there no studies of adopted children raised in same-sex households?

The government has conducted studies to figure out why Frisbees fly. What haven&#039;t they looked at those things I mentioned?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;Or maybe people who are drawn to conservative ideas are more likely to be the ones wanting to get married…

Correlation doesn’t equal causation

ChrisL on July 15, 2012 at 3:22 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

My niece got a lot more conservative when she had her child and they bought a house. Things like that tend to change your outlook because you have skin in the game, and someone who depends on you. You are not inclined to take chances with guys like Obama and you listen more closely for the things that can threaten what you love.]]></description>
