As always with a question like this, you need to define your terms to get a useful answer. What you mean by "real men," and by "old fashioned."

The problem with "liberal" and "conservative" is that they have changed over the years to mean nearly the exact opposite of what they once meant, making an annoying accidental comedy out of most debates where people use the labels without specifying what they mean by them.

I am VERY "old fashioned" to my own thinking, in the sense that I am a one-woman man when it comes to serious relationships; but throughout my life, other men who have pursued many women at the same time, have been proclaimed conservative. And the term "real man" has most often been reserved for the most randy and aggressively sexual men, the near predators, including people like Donald Trump has recently proclaimed himself to be, at least when he's in a "locker room." I came to associate the term "real man" with rudeness, selfishness, and greed, depending on the social circles I was observing.

Some so-called "liberal" circles tried at various times to redefine "real man" to refer to those who were good with children, solicitous, and generous, but I never saw that notion catch on.

Okay, but what's an "old fashioned conservative" to your particular way of thinking?

If it fits the mode of a person who respects and cares for the kids today, and those before us who put themselves out in the front lines for our freedom, and a guy who loves the flag, understands that racism exists, and it goes both ways, and not an excuse for respect for the flag. I still hold doors for all, even when people are too rude, and on cell phones to respond with thanks, oh well! Still a Church guy too, but don't push it, all should have freedom to do whatever, yet don't try to alter our beliefs because it's not convenient for you're casual lifestyle. So, as Doc Holliday said, " I'm you're Huckelberry".

I don't know, most of the self proclaimed "old fashion" people I've met turn out to be womanizing raciest that hate anyone who doesn't hold the same religious and social views they do. I like to believe that I'm new age accepting of all and hateful of none, how ever sometimes I can't help but to loath stupid people.

I took an online test once to see what it said about me.

It said I could not be defined. laugh

I have both conservative and liberal ideas - depending on the subject.

I think it's very easy to be both.

Now, finding the right guy at the right time, in the right situation.... not easy at all. tears

From my life experience.. it depends on where people were born, where they were raised., what culture they have, what religion/ ideology they have & in many cases & parts of the world ... class you were born into, & class that might be obtained.

From what I have seen... the MORE spirtual a person is, the MORE conservative they tend to be. Because they answer to a higher authority .. their Creator. And NO one or anything else. :angel:
