So Henry, why are conservative women so pretty?

It's a good question - And Henry provides a somewhat long-winded answer.  Ultimately, I think his wife is correct.  Conservative women are more attractive because they don't feel bad about being women.

There is a corollary to this question: Why are liberal women not attractive - oh sure there are the liberal Hollywood types who I honestly suspect are "liberal" because not being one is bad for your career. But in general?   The progressive take on women is that they are simultaneously identical to men, but should hate men. Better than men, but victims.  Empowered, and yet subjects of the patriarchy (men). And, nothing but a social construct.  Worse, they must by necessity believe 100 impossible things each and every day.

  Trying to wrap your head around that would likely make anyone hate themselves.  It's tough to be attractive when you hate yourself.
