For some reason I've always been more attracted to the girls that practice some form of Wicca or Druidry. I'm not sure if it's the fact that I'm a Druid, or the fact that their connection to the Goddess makes them more sensually appealing. Maybe it's the fact that they are able to hold onto a faith similar as my own in a world that sometimes looks down upon praciticing such beliefs. I've always felt that women of the Wiccan or Druid faiths seem to be more free-spirited, and although I've been known to have Christian or Catholic girlfriends, I've always found the girls of the Wiccan and Druid faiths to be more appealing.
Maybe some of you can help me understand this. Do you find women that follow similar faiths as your own more appealing than others? I'm just trying to figure out my attraction to women of the Wiccan and Druid faiths. I'm not saying I will only accept a girl from a similar faith as a girlfriend or wife, just that I've always been more attracted to them.

Choosing someone of your faith certainly makes a better match in the long run, especially in our faith (I am Wiccan myself). It's very hard to maintain a relationship with someone who is always secretly thinking your going to hell, even if they keep it to themselves. Plus it makes it harder to celebrate the holidays, especiallly if your coven considers their celebrations exclusively for believers.

I'm in an inter-faith relationship, and I made it clear from the very beginning that if we ever get married, the children will be raised with my religion. I made it a case of "my children are going to be Jewish. If you know you can't deal with that, then don't start a relationship with me because it won't go anywhere." I'm Jewish and my boyfriend is Catholic. Thankfully, my boyfriend has never put up an argument about this, and would even consider conversion if we "tie the knot." His parents are also not very religious, and they're very understanding. They wouldn't teach my kids Christianity if they knew that they were not being raised within that belief system. I think they also know that if they tried to get my kids involved in anything Christian, I'd be absolutely furious. I think you need to talk to your boyfriend's family (after you're officially committed to each other), and let them know that you BOTH have decided to raise the kids a certain way. It'll be easier to get them to respect your decision if they feel that their son had a say. They're your kids--you make the decisions, just as your boyfriend's parents got to make those same decisions when they raised him.

Maybe what you find appealing is the fact you have something in common. Yes I have found that ppl who have wicca or druid beliefs
are more free-spirited than any other religion.
Good luck

Well all I can tell you on that one is that I am Wiccan and so is my wife.... but we were married before either of us realized that Wicca was our calling. I can definitely see the attraction to Wiccan women, I am not sure if they are more free-spirited or if it is just that they are more sure of who they are and where they stand with the Universe as they know they are not below men in value.

I find a similar faith appealing as well.
It's not prejudice, it's the Understanding that goes along with a similar faith.
The Knowledge that they won't look at you like a nutter for talking about The Goddess or Esbats.

Fret not, mon frere... On occasion I, too, had a GF who practiced Wicca and we went famously well together for over a year or so. It helped me understand and explore the rituals and traditions of her beliefs and she did mine... And I found her friends to be good company as well.
Don't worry about it. Their free-spiritedness is a natural attraction that you owe yourself to explore if you are so inclined... Until it reaches a point when you need to CHOOSE which faith you will ultimately rely on FOR YOURSELF.
Peace be with you.

Well, it's a very good thing to have something in common with a person. With a non-Pagan, you'd probably have to explain your religion, and you couldn't celebrate with them. You wouldn't be the first or last to appreciate having something in common. Also, what you find beautiful in your religion...may be what you find beautiful in them.
I'm a Pagan woman married to an atheist woman. With us, we have several core principles, such as respecting science and nature, in common.

I think that is a little odd. When I am attracted to someone, his religious affiliation is not my first concern.
More power to you though. To each his own.
