Evasive about political affiliation, lies, or non-answers.

I don't answer because I'm afraid the crazies will use it as an entry point for harassment. My profile has zero political/social content in it. Until I've met a guy and seen how he reacts when a strong belief is challenged, I don't say anything about what I believe. For safety reasons.

There was this whole string of women who got doxxed and harassed because they had the misfortune of having opinions about video games like ten years ago. Seeing that play out was traumatic for me. So many people getting so violently heated about a stranger's personal opinion about something so petty. It made me very guarded about sharing my specific beliefs and opinions with men until I know them enough to feel safe with them.
