    Yeah I mean how could you date, much less marry someone whose values are so out of whack with yours??

    Because they lie.

    A lot of straight conservative men know that many women do not want to date conservative men. They will not present themselves as conservative men, and instead will list themselves perhaps as “moderates” or “centrists” or otherwise “hide their power level.” This is true for conservative gay men as well, to a lesser extent.

    People can be very good at hiding who they really are until the night after you get married. It’s terrifying.
