Btw in my local atheist group they did a gender poll; 70% are male. Atheists are disproportionally single according to another poll done there.
I hope I am not attacked for saying this, but women are more into feelings and men
tend to be more into logic.
Religion caters for emotional considerations. [duck]
Personally I'm an atheist. If I do find someone, I hope she is agnostic or an atheist. Religion is something that I simply can't relate to anymore nor is it something I believe in. Being with someone religious would just remind me of how much I hated it being forced on me at an early age. Our perspectives would be too different, it would cause a rift between us. I don't have anything against religious people...although I will admit to having an easier time getting on with people that either aren't religious or are but not in an organised religion. Leaving religion when I was twelve was a significant part of my life. I don't feel spiritual in any sense of the word.
Not all religious people are accepting of non-binary-gender people.
I was a committed Christian until I was around 21 and wasn't brought up to think this way, however.
Australia wasn't as fundamentalist as *perhaps* the American bible belt was.
I don't really know what it was like there when I was a kid.
Just a guess.
I have no idea what the UK was/is like, in regard to the values of religious people there.
Ideally, finding a partner with a similar ideology would seem to be a better bet, imo.
But it depends on the person you meet.
Being a couple always mean a compromise in some areas, after all.
My sixpence worth.
