Hmmm...

From the Normblog profile of writer Elizabeth Baines :

Do you think you could ever be married to, or in a long-term relationship with, someone with radically different political views from your own? > No way.

What do you consider the most important personal quality? > The ability to see others' points of view.

''I'm less clear about abortion since having children''

Is she more for it now or less?

Elizabeth Baines said...

No contradiction, really. Who wants to live with someone whose point of view one sees but does not share? Possible, but not exactly relaxing.

Anon: Less against. But as I say, I find it all less clear-cut.

Woops, no, I mean less for. REALLY unclear!
