Most women (and men) believe the things their parents teach them.

The thing with conservatives is they want to 1) prevent any other information flowing to these women, religious indoctrination only 2) get these women pregnant young so that they don't have a chance to gain independence

So yeah in those cases you have grown women who believe these things. The Duggars are an example of the 'quiver full' movement in action. Letting their son abuse their daughters young so that they get used to it and defend it as normal.

You seem to have confused Conservative politics with Fundamentalist Christianity. They are separate ideals but hard to find separately currently. Somebody can be a fiscal conservative and not buy into the social fundamental conservative position.

Check again, conservatives are no longer fiscally conservative and have not been for several decades. That facade has entirely fallen away to reveal the real:

  • fundamentalist christians
  • racists
  • filthy rich people who want tax cuts for the rich (do not confuse this with being fiscally conservative)

They are fiscally conservative... but only for any government programs that aren't tax cuts for the rich.
