What are your thoughts on relationships with guys who aren't feminists?
Feminists of AskWomen. Since you started identifying as a feminist, have you been in a relationship with someone who wasn't a feminist and didn't think it was needed where you live? Or at all for that matter? If so, how did that relationship turn out. If not, how would you feel about being in a relationship with someone who wasn't a feminist but was otherwise someone you'd be interested in?
To any women who don't consider themselves feminists, how would you feel about being in a relationship with someone who has opposing views to you on most political and social subjects?
Note to mods, this isn't asking for relationship advice, just thoughts on a hypothetical relationship. I hope it's allowed but if not I apologise and I'll take the thread somewhere else.
Edit: These questions don't just have to be in regards to relationships with guys. As mod sehrah pointed out, the dynamics of female x female relationships and the potential opposing views on feminism are worth discussing too.
