- Liberals wanted Women’s rights. Conservatives opposed it .
- Liberals wanted to end Segregation. Conservatives opposed it
- Liberals wanted to make interracial marriage legal. Conservatives opposed it.
- Liberals see nothing wrong with two loving and consenting adults of the same gender getting married. Conservatives oppose it.
- Liberals think women should make choices about their reproductive health themselves, and conservatives oppose it.
