That sounds so sad and terrifying.

It may well be sampling bias but I have heard of so many women who married, and divorced, men who were much more conservative than they were, and there were some common threads: the men were disdainful, sexist, into toxic masculinity, and objected especially to their ex-wives trying to teach their sons things like manners and civility. Also they undermined egalitarian teachings and tried to install bigotry at every turn. I guess we don't hear about the liberal women happily married to conservative men, so I should probably try harder to imagine how that can happen.
