I once dated a racist by accident x.x

That explains this thread

Oh no not that XD this is different. My current gf is fine. Nah, a few years back I was with this Australian girl who was fine until I realized she absolutely hated black people. I asked her why and she said, "because those filthy niggers are tainting the white population with their shit stained skin." Needless to say we broke up shortly after that XD

As long as it doesn't become an issue for the relationship. The common saying "opposites attract" though not necessarily true can also be a strong point in the relationship. I am not a fan of conflict though, so it can't be a huge issue.



Well, the opposite of my political views would be a man hating feminist who likes socialism so no. I've dated liberal women before and politics never got into the relationship but I could never date the far left.



Most likely not. I couldn't be with somebody I fundamentally consider ignorant.



It would depend on how compatible we are with everything else. Though I don't think I'd be able to tolerate a Nazi or a racist, then again if by a small chance I truly believed I could help that person come around.... maybe. Call me crazy but I've learned that many racist are just people who do not understand the issue at hand, a true Nazi on the other hand is likely beyond any rational reasoning. Xenophobia is a real threat to humanity and our future. I do believe that it is our responsibility to help educate on that matter to those who are willing to listen.

Sure. However, my political views are about as middle of the road as you can get... so it would be hard to be opposite of me...



Depends how different, and how flexible she is politically. Certain issues I don't care enough to make a big deal out of it, and might even cave to her side. Other issues, like abortion, death penalty, or religious freedom, I would never plan to cave on, and if she was inflexibly opposed to what I stood for, I can't see it working out well.

Yes, unless it was extreme, we should all be strong enough to live people that are different



Sure, unless if they're crazy. Then again even if they shared the same political views as me and they were crazy then I wouldn't date them.

Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).
