    and… Water is wet…

    Do you think people who supported Civil rights in the 60s and 70s were off marrying people who opposed civil rights?

      Cross politics marriages were more common in the past.

      A lot of women married to get away from their parents and became homemakers. If husband was conservative but not abusive you might keep quiet about what you do in the voting booth for the sake of peace peace at home.

      Liberal men might not ask about their fiances politics. If she is hot and willing a lot of young men.

      I’m not saying it was ever healthy, but it was more common.
