I think it's true to an extent. Even in the beginning of this country, strict conservatives (Tories) wished to conserve the status quo and protect the rights of the Royalty.
I think typical career military/law enforcement type tend to be Conservative he-man dominate types, Alpha personality perhaps.
Dedicated Conservatives more strongly believe in conformity and will attempt to exert others to also conform. They love uniforms. I think it is born out of a strong innate sense of social structure where there is the leader of the pack and subordinates. As a result Conservatives make good leaders. Full blown Conservatives don't make good scientists because they have more difficulty thinking outside the box; ie non-conformist thinking. Maybe even a right-brain/left-brain phenomena, concerning the contrast with liberal thinking.
From the neighbor ladies standpoint, the military/law enforcement type don't always make good husbands and a larger percentage are likely to be abusive. Women prefer to breed with he-men(love uniforms); but they prefer to live and marry helpful, "we're equal", sissies to raise their young. That's likely her current mentality. Her druggy boyfriend could have even been a severe right winger like Rush and, if she's more like Hillary than Laura, she's openly had enough. Liberal women are disobedient.
IMO overall, most people are a mixture of Liberal/Conservative, or middling moderate/progressive personality types, even if they claim they are either left or the right.
Know thyself.
