Not all women are into activism. In fact, as an older guy (who has been through a number of relationships in my younger days) I'd advise a guy to strongly avoid those who are into activism. For the same types of reasons I'd avoid overly religious women. This is not to say that there is anything wrong with beliefs on social justice or religious beliefs, but women who get too carried away with these things tend to have other issues in my experience that they are externalizing. They will make your life hell, particularly as they age. And you will be continually measured and judged by whatever thing they glommed onto.

Look for a women that wants to be a mother if that is what you are into.

Otherwise, just a good person with good sense and an even temper who can somewhat keep their life together and who gives you love and who you can love back. Someone who is happy and cares about others is best.

But I do tend to agree on "computer people". They aren't usually who I chose to hang with in off hours for the reasons you mention.
