Status: offline 		Considering the various labels used on people, I am wondering what is the predominant philosophy on collarme.

What do you label yourself as?

I have allowed for multiple selections simply because one label usually doesnt cover a person.

I think this is 2 different 'categories' that may not necessarily correlate.

Edited to add:  EbonyWood is right, these aren't "philosophies" - even though i understand your intent.  "Political Viewpoints" is a much better descriptor.

Yes, it's late, my apologies for not commenting on this sooner........

Actually, politics has a philosophical standing.

This is a gripe I have: why have poll functions in each section, but they aren't allowed to be used anywhere except here?

Anyway.

Mostly libertarian; adults should be allowed to do what they want, in general, but I have some views that are seen as conservative, as well. Religious, although I'm struggling with that.

Status: offline 		As I consider myself liberal on some issues & conservative on others, I chose both moderate liberal & moderate conservative.  I am religious, but no one organized religion fits me.  I suppose you could call me wishy-washy, but there wasn't a choice for that.  And it would be completely wrong anyway.  I just don't fit into a box.  I have strong morals & ethics & feelings about what's right & what is wrong.  But I will defend to the death your right to disagree about such things.  Does that answer the question?

As for the factoid: I don't doubt it, all we've led the nation in producing the last few years are cocksuckers like Rick Perry and Tom Delay

Status: offline 		I shamefacedly must confess that these days I am a democrat. But I was born a liberal. Literally. My grandfather was very close friends with the man who ran NY's Liberal party for years. When I got old enough to vote, my mother took me down to register and told them I was another card carrying Liberal. These days, NY's Liberal party is moribund so now I am forced to be a democrat.

Unfortunately I may have to disinherit the teen, in order to not conform with the rest of us, he's becoming a republican. Maybe I can just beat some sense into him.

We've always been registered Dems; dad was a life-long union man, etc, etc. I've voted for them, but for Republicans, Libertarians, Greens, and Kinky Freidman, too.

I have a hard enough time using the label "switch" since I don't feel it covers my kink tastes completely.  My philosophical and political beliefs are equally broad and sweeping.

Sorry, probably not the answer you were looking for but there you have it.
