I am in a heterosexual marriage, with many children. But I don’t think it’s the only way to live and don’t judge others for arranging their lives differently. So I am liberal/progressive.
And I personally feel lucky to be alive at all, and do not think anyone deserves anything. But the unfairness baked into the system here distorts the world. You could only be ‘conservative’ in the sense of thinking people get what they work for, in a world where everyone had the same starting line and tools. We don’t live in that world.
I personally prefer traditional but not impose it to others. What others do is not my concern, not my life. So, I don’t care what they do.
The entire thing for this thread was, finding a conservative place to see if I would fit without the hate it has. Whenever I do official political tests from my country, I end up “Center-right. Thus I was curious.

I would not describe that as conservative? The family across the street from us is like that & they strike me as more progressive. At least in the US the conservatives are not at all live and let live. It’s kind of the point, really - they believe in strictly imposed social order more than freedom.
I think looking for religious spaces on the internet might work better for what you are looking for - if living like that has improved your life & you want to share it, that makes sense. It just doesn’t make you conservative, in a political sense, which is what you will find under the label conservative. Conservative is wanting everyone to get in line and live like you.
