The growing political dating divide — and its consequences



There’s a movement on the right that’s been growing in momentum: that men and women are becoming proud of building the traditional nuclear family — despite decades of propaganda urging both men and women to put their careers first.

However, while the movement is strong, the increase of women who self-identify as liberal and men who self-identify as conservative appears to be stronger. This has made it harder for those who want a traditional family unit to find those ideologically aligned partners who want to build that family unit.

“A growing political divide between men and women has compounded the challenges of finding love. Around 39% of women ages 18 to 29 identified as liberal in 2024, according to Gallup, compared with 25% of their male peers. This gap has more than tripled in a decade: 32% of women and 28% of men called themselves liberal in 2014,” claims a recent report from the Wall Street Journal.


“So it was a gap of four points; now it's a gap of 14 points,” Stu Burguiere of “Stu Does America” comments. “And you think about when we were going through the election time. All the stories of women who would not date a man who had a MAGA hat on or had some conservative indicators in their profile.”

“We saw it the other way around, too; women who would be like, ‘I’m proud of being a Trump supporter,’ would get boycotted essentially by all the men that they would be matched with because they didn’t want anything to do with it,” he continues.

While politics is making it harder for single men and women to find eligible partners, Stu doesn’t believe it’s all bad.

“Having massive disagreements about core issues of humanity is not the worst reason to not get with someone,” Stu says, “That being said, when more and more people are of one persuasion or the other, and especially with white women in particular, they’re becoming more and more liberal by the day for whatever reason, that makes matchmaking a little bit more difficult.”

Netflix proves men will either submit to God — or their would-be wives



Across the globe, young men and women are becoming increasingly divergent in their political views — with young women drastically identifying as more liberal and young men identifying as more conservative.

This was perfectly illustrated in Netflix’s “Love Is Blind” finale, where two young couples were torn apart at the altar by their ideological differences.

“I love you so much, but I’ve always wanted a partner to be on the same wavelength, and so today I can’t,” cast member Sara Carton told fiance Ben Mezzenga in front of their friends and family at their wedding.


Carton claimed that the pair's differing views on religion, LGBTQ issues, Black Lives Matter, and the vaccine are what led her to make her decision.

“The woman in that Netflix video did that man a life favor. He should be very thankful that she did that. The problem is that he didn’t do it first. He should have recognized right away,” Steve Deace of “The Steve Deace Show” explains.

“You can see it in that clip, right there, he’s completely mesmerized by attraction and everything else. He hasn’t vetted her at all. She vetted him,” Deace continues. “Feminine beauty is undefeated, and without the Holy Spirit, you’re going to end up with gobsmack like that dude was.”

This is why young men have to fulfill their calling to be leaders.

“Someone has to lead. The creation runs on headship. Someone has to lead. Someone has to. So you’re either leading her or she’s leading you. The idea that this is co-habitual ain’t true, and it never will be. I can promise you that,” Deace says.

“Do you know why you were made, men? Do you know whom you ultimately belong to and will be held accountable to? Do you know the answer to that? Because the kind of woman you want to marry — she wants a man who can answer those questions,” he continues.

“So I promise, you’ll end up heartbroken, embarrassed, and gobsmacked as that guy on Netflix if you don’t have the right worldview,” he adds.
