What if the family has two dads? Or two moms?

I honestly would not care since it is not my life. They’re happy? Good, let them be. None of my business.
It is true that my religion says it is wrong, however it is my religion. I believe in it, they don’t. So, who am I to bother them?

I would call that Socially liberal. Maybe, as others have already said, you should re-evaluate your political standing. You might not be as conservative as you think.

That’s an American-centric position. In Europe, there are right-wing parties that don’t oppose gay rights.

No, you’re right… they don’t openly oppose gay rights. Yet. They’re merely xenophobic racists.

You sound like a social liberal, economic conservative.
To be clear - being socially liberal doesn’t mean that you want to be LGBTQ. It doesn’t mean that you want to be atheist. It just means that you believe other people should be allowed to be that. So you can still be Muslim and have a traditional family and still be considered socially liberal.
As for your question, that’s quite tough. American Democrats are, politically speaking, probably the closest group of people I can think of. But somehow, people think that Democrats are socialist, so your mileage may vary

Do you believe that family should have all the same rights, protections and support your “traditional” family has?
ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
Yes, I do. I mean, just because they have different values and such than me - doesn’t mean they’re bad. We are all humans, we all deserve the same rights, protection and support.
Kind of surprised with the questions though, while I’m just looking for an community.

You’re already aware the sites have a liberal slant. What you might not be aware of is the plethora of “conservatives that don’t hate” that turn out to be fucking awful bigots that come to these places and try to stir shit up. The questions are to weed out whether you’re genuine or one of the awful bigots.
That being said, you seem genuine enough to me. However you seem like you might still be somewhat impressionable and I’d caution you in looking for a “more conservative community”. Those tend to be hotbeds for recruitment and indoctrination.
I’d ask, what do you think you’ll get from a more conservative community that the more easily found liberal communities cannot offer?

As others already did I also would challenge your (purely) conservative tag. One of the most prominent “features” of current conservatives is to remove support and even legal standing of non-traditional families.

Well, you’re not like any conservative I’ve ever spoken with. At least not in the America sense of the word- maybe it’s different in a European context.
I tend to drop basically every political topic with anyone that actually identifies themselves that way. In my experience that is not going to lead to any kind of pleasant conversation or debate so I just don’t engage.
“Non-hateful conservative” basically reads like an oxymoron to me.
