1. Anywhere in Alabama

...except for Southside, Birmingham.

[Omphaloskepsis]

2. Eugene, Oregon..

Not really, I just fear competition.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

3. Did you arrive at these choices arbitrarily, through experience, or what?

[GOPisEvil]

4. Um, the city and county of Dallas are quite the blue areas, thank you.

Edit - the suburbs are still pretty red though...

[crispini]

14. Thanks for standing up for us, dude!

Oh, and NOTE TO YOU DICKWADS WHO LIVE IN PLANO: YOU DON'T LIVE IN DALLAS! Assholes are giving my hood a bad name. :mad:

[Momgonepostal]

5. I think many very small, isolated towns could be a bummer

Few people to date, numerically speaking, and depending on what you want to do with your life, few nearby colleges or employment prospects.

Not to dismiss small town living, I can see the appeal, but I think I'd like it better now that I'm married and have kids than when I was 18.

6. Waco

Amarillo
Vidor

7. Crawford

[Pierre.Suave]

8. A meeting of the

College Republicans :shrug:

[alarimer]

9. Corpus Christi, Texas

Young or not so young for that matter. I figured out one reason why it is the case for me: single women outnumber single men here by about 2500, according to a chart I saw in National Geographic magazine last month. Of course the graph said nothing about progressive or non-progressive, but this city elected a Republican sheriff for the first time in ages recently so that can't be good. And the city council is all about developers and graft and corruption so that isn't progressive at all.

10. Hannidate

[Danger Mouse]

11. A megachurch, complete with speaking in tongues and witch burnings.

[Generic Brad]

12. Jesus Camp?

[TommyO]

13. Salt Lake City?

Or just about anywhere in Utah for that matter. On one of the "adult sites" that I frequent, there are very few gay men logged on from Utah compared to some other states - I don't think it has to do with population either.

15. Most of the South and Salt Lake City

[Lydia Leftcoast]

16. From what I understand, Salt Lake City is one of the more liberal parts of

Utah and has a progressive mayor. I think you're right about most of the rest of Utah, though.

When I was in grad school I knew a young woman who had grown up in a medium-sized city in Utah as a non-Mormon. She said that it was terrible to be a teenager in her situation because the entire social life of the community revolved around the Mormon church.

17. Walmart, church, Shoney's.

[pstokely]

18. Shoney's is still around

The one's Kansas City got bought out by Big Boy and shut down shortly after

[AllegroRondo]

21. Do they still have the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet?

that was THE place to go after a night of heavy drinking.

[krispos42]

19. Any church with snake handling

Southern Baptist Convention Vacation Bible School.

Any place where the guys wear white robes and pointy white hats.

[noonwitch]

20. Holland, Michigan

It's about as conservative as one can get. The beaches there are nice, and Dutch Village is kind of fun.
