"If you actually believe conservatives think this way, you'll never actually convince them of anything because you're speaking at them as if they are children."

"If you actually believe conservatives think this way, you'll never actually convince them of anything because you're speaking at them as if they are children." Also, It is a chauvinistic position to claim that about conservatives as it seems to make an assumption that conservative=male. I personally would not class myself as conservative as I tend to disagree strongly with their policies, however I do not think that people like Thatcher or Widdicombe believe that women are not capable of leadership and it would be hard to claim that they are not conservatives.
