Relationships — Why You Should Never Talk Politics On A First Date (Video)
by Rory Uphold

There are a lot of things that turn me off: cats (allergies!), people who are rude to waiters and people who don't vote. That's right, I said it. People who don't vote are a huge turn off.

I often hear, “Never talk about politics, sex or religion.” Personally, those are the three things that matter most to me, so I like to get them out of the way -- but that's me. Then again, my life is a series of awkward and uncomfortable moments, so I'm used to it by now.

I can't understand how people could be so apathetic to give up their right to take part in shaping our communities and government.

I'm not going to lie, I'd probably never date a guy who wasn't pro-choice, but I sure as sh*t would never date someone who didn't vote.

If you don't vote, I hope you never complain about anything. That's right, no Facebook rants for you. You're either a part of the problem or a part of the solution, so get out and vote or keep you mouth shut.*

*End rant.
