The 70/30 Situation

According to a study done.....roughly 70-percent of Democrats say that they can't date, hang-out, or marry-up with a GOP guy/gal.  That puts 30-percent in the other bucket....they could go and have some kinda relationship with the GOP guy/gal.

There was a study done back in 2016, talking over this issue.

In that situation, they asked both groups about marriages.

Republican guys?  In thirty-percent of cases, they were married to a Republican gal.

Democratic guys?  In twenty-five percent of cases, they were married to a Democrat gal.

So if you were looking for a Republican guy married to a Democrat gal....that only occurred in 6-percent of cases.

Looking for a Democratic guy married to a Republic gal.....that only occurred in 3-percent of cases.

I worked with a gal around a decade ago who was approaching 35, and still single.   She admitted that finding the right guy was now next to impossible.  He had to show zero interest in sports, not smoke, have no bad habits, owe no real debt, and only marginally drink alcohol (wine was it).  She also admitted along the way that he had to have marginal interest in politics, like cats, and be handsome.  I commented to her....that this filtering system of hers would ensure no guy ever got through.

Looking at this Democrat versus Republican thing....man, this would be tearing some die-hard women apart at age 25.....meeting up with a dynamic 30-year old guy....successful, charming, mildly interested in sports, no debt, able to cook 50 different dishes in the kitchen, likes cats, and even plays the banjo.....only to discover that he's fairly dedicated to Trump.
