How do I say that I'm relatively liberal without offending anyone on Facebook? I'm 14?

[Will Vickery]

I live in Texas and I'm surrounded by conservative republicans. Even my parents and brother are conservative. I'm probably a 6 or 7 on a 1-10 scale, 1 being extremely conservative and 10 being as liberal as you can get (I'm pro gay rights, but anti abortion). Everyone I know is a 1-3. How can I say this on my Facebook profile without offending people around me? Right now, it says "mostly conservative". Thanks.

Just say you're an Idiot. They'll understand.

how can you be pro gay and anti abortion at the same time?

I wouldn't worry about offending anybody. It is bound to happen and there is nothing you can do about it. If these people are your friends, it won't matter to them.

Most people on Facebook are Liberals

Why don you just call yourself an idiot. It will fit perfectly.

Why discuss politics on Facebook? I don't discuss politics or religion on there, if any of my friends begin spouting off about those topics, I fix it so I can't see their posts.

[Jim Rooks]

most conservatives don't take offense when someone claims to be a liberal. it's liberals who get offended when someone vocalizes their conservatism

Say what you want on FB since it seems what I read here on YA that most are fighting about something.

Tell people you got hit pretty hard in the head the other day.

Here is a rule EVERYONE should have.

Avoid talking about sex, religion and politics at school and at work as much as possible.

I would include facebook in that as well because you have no real control over who can look at that stuff. Only after getting to know an individual should you discuss those subjects... again you should control who sees and hears the conversation.

I would say the exact same thing to a conservative.

Think about this... I know a guy that lost a very good job, with all the bells and whistles in benefits because he couldn't keep his mouth shut about politics at work. This man has a wife, a kid and another on the way. His unemployment recently ran out and the pregnant wife is making all the money.... a quarter of what his job paid and there are no benefits. This man now has to face the fact that he might have to collect welfare just to get by.

Now I know you are just 14... but its best if you learn this early and stick to it.
