Why Liberals Are Done Looking For Love

EVER SINCE THE ELECTION IT TURNS OUT THAT LIBERALS ON
MATCH.COM AREN'T AS ACTIVE OR AS MOTIVATED TO FIND A
POTENTIAL PARTNER OR MATE.
MATCH.COM, ONE OF THE LARGEST ONLINE DATING SITES, DID A
SURVEY AND IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND THIS IS NOT A
NATIONALLY REPRESENTATIVE SURVEY.
THEY ARE ONLY TALKING TO CONSERVATIVES AND LIBERALS
ON THEIR SITES AND WHAT THEY FOUND WAS YEAH, A LOT OF
LIBERALS, THEY ARE NOT REALLY INTO DATING RIGHT NOW AND THEY
ARE CERTAINLY NOT INTERESTED IN DATING CONSERVATIVES.
IN JANUARY, PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES LIBERALS WERE
FAR LESS LIKELY TO SIGN UP WITH MATCH AND WEREN'T CONTACTING
POTENTIAL MATCHES ARE CHECKING OUT NEW PROFILES IS MUCH.
THEY NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A HUGE DIP IN JANUARY AND
USUALLY JANUARY IS A BIG MONTH FOR MATCH.COM.
PEOPLE ARE SUPER ACTIVE IN THEIR LIKE YEAH, I'M GOING TO
FIND A NEW MAY, IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT.
THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPENS I WE HAVE TO SURVEY THESE PEOPLE
AND FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON.
THROUGH THE SURVEY AND THEY TALK TO ABOUT 1800 OF THEIR USERS,
29% OF LIBERALS SAID THEY FELT LESS LIKE DATING SINCE TRUMP 1.
AMONG CONSERVATIVES, THAT FIGURE IS 14.2%.
YOU CAN SEE A HUGE DISPARITY THERE.
CONSERVATIVES REPORTED A GREATER WILLINGNESS AND LIBERALS TO
REACH OUT ACROSS THE AISLE IN THEIR LOVE LIVES POSTELECTION.
AROUND 60% OF THE LIBERALS RESPONDED THEY ARE LESS
LIKELY TO DATA CONSERVATIVE THAN TWO YEARS AGO.
MEANWHILE, AROUND 50% PERCENT OF CONSERVATIVES SAID THE SAME.
I DON'T LIKE THIS PHENOMENON.
I DONíT LIKE IT FOR TWO REASONS.
ONE IS, I DON'T LIKE THE DEPRESSION.
IT IS NOT MY CUP OF TEA.
I WANT PEOPLE TO PICK IT BACK UP.
AND ON JANUARY WHEN I WAS SINGLE I WOULD THINK TIME TO GO OR
WHATEVER ANA WAS DOING, OKAY.
BUT IF THAT IS TRUE AND REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DATA YOU
NORMALLY GET ON MATCH.COM, AND NOW IT HAS GONE LIMP IF YOU
WILL BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE DEMORALIZED, I LOVE YOU, WE
ARE GOING TO FIGHT BACK.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET DEMORALIZED, YOU SHOULD GET
ENERGIZED AND LET'S GO OUT THERE AND HIT THE SHEETS.
WHETHER YOU WANT TO HAVE SEX IS A DIFFERENT MATTER, BUT
DON'T LET IT GET YOU DOWN.
OF COURSE THERE IS A BUNCH OF HYPOTHESES IN REGARD TO
WHAT IS GOING ON.
WHAT IS, AND HELEN FISHER TALK ABOUT THIS A LITTLE BIT,
YET, PEOPLE ARE LITTLE DEPRESSIVE THEY ARE LESS
LIKELY GOING OUT THERE TO LOOK FOR PARTNERS.
THERE IS ALSO AT LEAST REPORTS ONLY, AND OF COURSE I MARRIED
SIDE ONLY FALL UNDER THIS CATEGORY, BUT FOR ME PERSONALLY
AFTER THE ELECTION AND CERTAINLY DURING ALL THE CAMPAIGNS, I
FELT VERY, I DIDN'T TRUST STRANGERS.
IN FACT, I LOST OF WATER TRUST I WAS RESPECT SKEPTICAL STRANGERS.
WHEN YOU ONLINE DATING, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN LEVEL OF
TRUST.
I THINK THIS PAST ELECTION REVEALED HOW TERRIBLE PEOPLE CAN
REALLY BE AND IT MADE ME A LITTLE MORE HESITANT TO PUT
MYSELF OUT THERE AND MEET NEW PEOPLE AS FRIENDS AND GO TO
PARTIES, NETWORK DIET WAS MORE LIKE ARE YOU GOING TO ATTACK ME?
ARE YOU GOING TO BUM RUSH MY STAGE?
WHAT IS YOUR DEAL.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
ON A PERSONAL LEVEL WE HAD THE STUFF GOING ON IN 2016 AND
ALSO I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE FELT DISCOURAGED BECAUSE WOW, A
LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY DON'T MIND A GUY WHO GRABS WOMEN
BY THE GENITALIA AND SAYS TERRIBLE THINGS ABOUT LATINOS
AND MUSLIMS.
THE LIST GOES ON.
THOUGHT YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT I LIVE NEXT TO?
IT WAS A BIG WAKE-UP CALL BUT REMEMBER, REPUBLICANS WERE
SUPER PITS WHEN OBAMA 1.
SINCE I'M A PROGRESSIVE, I THINK WE ARE RIGHT AND THEY ARE WRONG
AND WHY SAY THAT IS THEY ARE MAD AT THAT THEY DON'T GET TO RULE
ANYMORE.
THERE'S THIS GUY WHO'S GOING TO GET FREE THINGS TO BLACK PEOPLE.
THAT WASN'T TRUE AND IT WAS A SENSE OF WE USED TO GET THE
FREE THINGS AND NOW WHAT ARE WE GOING TO BE A LEGAL?
IN THIS CASE, WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT WHAT ARE THEY GOING
TO DO TO LATINOS OR MUSLIMS THAT WE KNOW HER FAMILY MEMBERS?
ARE WOMEN.
I THINK IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT BUT OBVIOUSLY
COME FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE.
BACK IN THE OLD DAYS, I WAS A REPUBLICAN.
I USED TO THINK THAT SOMETIMES WOMEN WOULDN'T DATE ME
BECAUSE WE HAD CONFLICTING POLITICAL IDEOLOGY.
I CAME TO FIND THAT WASN'T EXACTLY RIGHT.
IT WAS BECAUSE I WAS A DORK AND I WILL TELL YOU WHAT I MEAN
BY THAT AND IT IS TRUE.
I CARE TOO MUCH ABOUT POLITICS OVER ALSO GOING TODAY AND
IT WOULD BE LIKE DO YOU KNOW WHAT SENATOR HATCH DID AND
THEY'RE LIKE OH, WHO IS THIS GUY?
DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU AGREED WITH SENATOR HATCH OR NOT
DIET WAS A SUPER DORKY WAY TO APPROACH THINGS.
IF YOUR POLITICAL, I LOVE YOU BROTHER I MET THERE WITH YOU.
BUT IT WASN'T THE MOST EFFECTIVE PICKUP LINES AT YOUR LOCAL BAR.
AND NOW THOUGH, IT HAS BECOME MORE DIVIDING IN THE
COUNTRIES BECOME MORE POLARIZED RIGHTS BECOME MORE REAL
THAN WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.
WAY MORE POLARIZED.
BUT THERE'S LITTLE BIT OF LOGIC IN THAT.
THESE DAYS YOUR POLITICS TO SOME DEGREE ARE YOUR VALUES.
THEY REPRESENT WHO YOU ARE DIET REVEALS WHAT YOUR
CHARACTER IS IN FOR ME, IT'S NONNEGOTIABLE.
CONSERVATIVE MEN I FIND IN A LOT OF CASES, NOT ALL BEEN IN A
LOT REPULSIVE.
WELL, STRONG.
YOU THINK I AM A SECOND-CLASS CITIZEN BECAUSE I HAVE OF
THE CHINA?
I FIND YOU REPULSIVE.
NOT ALL CONSERVATIVES THINK THAT WAY, THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO
IDENTIFIES CONSERVATIVES AND DO BELIEVE IN EQUALITY, RIGHT?
I THINK SOME, THERE ARE CHRISTIANS IN THIS COUNTRY
THAT ARE GOOD PEOPLE IN THE IDENTIFIES CONSERVATIVES,
THEY MIGHT NOT BELIEVE IN THINGS LIKE ABORTION BUT THEY
DON'T WANT TO DICTATE YOUR LIFE BASED ON WHAT THEIR MORALS ARE.
THERE ARE TONS OF PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT BEHAVE THAT WAY AND I
LOVE THEM AND I'M TOTALLY FINE WITH THEM TIME NOT REPULSED BY
THEM, BUT TRUMP ERA CONSERVATIVES, THE TYPE OF
PEOPLE THAT SUPPORT THE KIND OF RHETORIC THAT COMES OUT OF
DONALD TRUMP'S MASCOT MOUTH, REPULSIVE DIVE NO INTEREST
IN THEM WHATSOEVER DIE WHEN TESTING WITH A 10 FOOT POLE.
I DON'T BEGRUDGE WOMEN FOR NOT WANTING TO GO OUT THERE.
THAT IS A LITTLE CONTROVERSIAL POSITION
BECAUSE IF YOU ARE A GUY OUT THERE GOING WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
SO I GRAB WOMEN SOMETIMES THE ASKING THEM.
CAN YOU NOT SEE WHERE THAT WOULD BE DEEPLY TROUBLING TO
SOMEONE WHO IS CONSIDERING DATING YOU?
YOU HAVE TO BE UP TO SEE THAT, RIGHT?
THAT'S WHERE WE ARE TODAY.
SOME PEOPLE ARE DATING EACH OTHER LESS AND OVERALL, I
DON'T LOVE VETERANS.
I WISH WE TALKED MORE, I WISH WE COULD GET ALONG BETTER, BUT
I UNDERSTAND WHY IT HAPPENS TO SOME PEOPLE SAY, THAT IS
DISCRIMINATION BASED ON POLITICS RATHER THAN RACE.
THOSE ARE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS.
RACES ARBITRARY.
POLITICS IS SOMETHING YOU CHOSE.
SOMETHING YOU IDENTIFY WITH.
LOOK, WHEN IT COMES TO THE ISSUE OF DATING, IT'S A VOLUNTARY
THING.
YOU CAN CHOOSE TO DATE SOMEONE WHO HAS A POLITICAL BELIEF OR
NOT, BUT IT BECOMES A LOT MORE TRICKY WHEN IT HAS TO DO
WITH INDIVIDUALS THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH
OR COMMUNICATE WITH LIKE FAMILY MEMBERS AND STUFF.
I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING WITH THAT AS WELL.
THERE BEEN STORIES OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE LITERALLY SEPARATED
AFTER THE ELECTION BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T HANDLE THE FACT
THEIR PARTNER SUPPORTED DONALD TRUMP, RIGHT?
WE DID A STORY LIKE THAT LAST WEEK.
I DON'T KNOW, I HAVE FOUND THAT I'VE GONE TO A POINT WHERE
IF I HAVE ANY TYPE OF HINTS THAT SOMEONE IN MY PERSONAL LIFE
IS A TRUMP SUPPORTER, I WILL TRY TO INSULATE MYSELF FROM THEIR
POLITICAL CONVERSATIONS AS MUCH IS POSSIBLE BECAUSE THERE ARE
PEOPLE I HAVE TO DEAL WITH AND I DON'T WANT TO DESPISE THEM.
MY FAVORITE PART OF THE STORY HAS BEEN AND IS BODY LANGUAGE.
WE ARE INSULATING.
THAT IS HOW WE APPARENTLY DO IT.
AND VERY ANIMATED.
IF YOU THINK I AM MORE OPEN-MINDED TIME THE GOOD
GUY HERE, I AM NOT THE GOOD GUY HERE.
BUT WHEN I WAS SINGLE, I WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM DATING A
CONSERVATIVE BECAUSE I WAS MORE OPEN-MINDED BECAUSE I
WANTED TO HAVE SEX WITH THEM.
YOU'RE THE WORST.
HEY, THAT'S LIFE IN THE BIG CITY, OKAY QUESTION WHETHER
WE GET ALONG, WILL FIGURE OUT AFTER THE SEX.
I'M A BAD MAN
