Of course not! You forgot 'have kids with male'.

I get approached like I'm the most popular guy in the club when I'm wearing my Sean Jean and my Burberry. Just sayin. I was out tonight and one girl walked right up to me and asked me if I thought she was pretty. Even at my fattest (340 lbs) I garnered one good female approach a night if I dressed well.

Err, in 3rd world countries it is more like:

Woman's Parents Must seek target-> Find: Rich; Handsome; Own House; Good Job; Wears Suit; -> Date Male -> Marry Male -> Mission Accomplished.

No, it's not like that, not here at least. This how it's usually happening

It's more like Girl is raised by parents to seek specific target , Girl Musk seek target ---> Find: Rich; Handsome; Own House; Good Job; Wears Suit; -> Date Male --> Male approved by parents ---> Marry Male -> Mission Accomplished.


The target usually should be of the same religion.

HOWEVER, when the target is too rich, they would accept him even if he's from a completely different religion. Wealth compensates religious difference.

The Target should at least be able to afford marrying abroad: http://www.economist.com/node/14382010

very few women work outside of the home in the developing world. marrying as rich as they can is the only option for a better life (for women and for MEN, who rely on dowries in many cases). AND it's the developing world we are talking about, so there are very few rich people to start with... last i checked it is called the developing world for a reason.... most residents are dirt poor.

EDIT: holy typos batman.

This is interesting. I don't live in the west (sort of - I live in Eastern Europe), and I always found interesting that in certain Western countries (US, for example), woman often stops working after she gets married. In my culture, both parents work. It's not expected for you to leave your job just because you're married or if you have kids like it's in the west (or so it seems). I mean, I always found it strange that there are so many housewives in America.

there aren't that many housewives really.... close to 50% of the workforce is female, so there are as many males as females at home either due to unemployment or due to choice.

Oh, ok. I guess that's just something that's portrayed on TV and in movies, then. (Seriously... Most of the media representations of family have a woman as a housewife... Even if it's a contemporary setting).

In my culture, not all people work because the economy is horrible and they can't find the job. But the idea is that a woman should work and it's been like that for decades (socialism actually made an unconscious step towards female equality because it valued a worker, regardless of gender. The wages were the same for men and women, etc.)

It's a cultural thing.

The US is closer to the Middle-East than Eastern Europe, culturally.

Hyperlexian's post is an assumption, it's not real, the 'only option for a better life' is a poor excuse. Blame it all on the patriarchal society and men, how typical. Yet it's usually the brides' mothers who encourage such things.

I knew plenty of women, highly educated, who left successful careers behind after getting married.

Reality is, most people seek the best option for an easy life.

Women who quit their jobs after marrying, are usually married with well-off husbands, with a chauffeur and at least 1 maid from Sri Lanka or Philippine, even their kids are diapered and raised by their maids or nannies, so it's not their housewife job is hard.

She has no real excuse to not pursue her career other that she doesn't want to..... or her husband doesn't want her to work yet she's glad with that (if not then why marrying him?).

It's often the women who marry financially-average men who continue their career and work two full-time jobs as housewives and employees, and in most cases they're financially-average to poor themselves.

I was raised by two working parents, when I was kid I thought that all moms work :P until one day at school (elementary - can't recall which class but I was too little) , there was a survey asking the kids whether their moms work or not, only two of us among the whole class had working moms, I was shocked.

I was at a French school, very expensive at its time compared to local schools, so most of my colleagues were of the higher class, I always sensed the gap (between my family and them) of wealth and ease when I visited my colleagues' houses. At age 8 I recall I asked dad why we own a such small house, he explained to me that we don't even own it, it's rented. :lol:

I mean hey, any woman is free to choose to be a housewife and quit her pro job, that's her choice, but she should stop blaming it on the inequality and patriarchy that exists in her society because her lifestyle choice is another contribution to this system.

also, iirc they support Wakefield. so there you go.

Theres been quite some talk about how wakefield results were mistreated by the uk medical examinations and how they mistreated parents that wanted to send their children for examination...Im not saying he was completely honest but he has been mistreated by the uk government/media to prevent any future similar investigations(in a look what happened to him do you seriously want to go down that road? sense) because his results werent benefitial for the them.

in some ways, yes. in other ways, no.

developing countries can't really be compared to the US or Canada, and so few people have the option of being rich in those countries anyway. i am not sure if you are trying to say that the Middle East is more like North America or more like developing countries but it doesn't really seem similar to either, whether we are talking economically or culturally.

an assumption of what? and how is it different from your assumptions?

i said nothing about patriarchy. you were implying it is only women who want to marry rich, but i disagree - dowries are an indication of the opposite. dowries are still very common in developing countries, and the dowry is routinely taken into consideration in marital decisions. i think that in very poor countries, money is an issue. i don't think a comparable force exists to that degree in North America.

This is why simultaneous a) I look to be attracted to them and b) I look signs from them that its reciprocal. While I feel like I can weed out most in a heck of a lot less than 3 minutes the nice thing about being a guy, I at least agree with the survey on myself, if a girl was in the weeded out category but if it was for superficial reasons she has all the time in the world to reverse that.

Okay, well, I am an atypical NT and the three minutes applies to ONLY sexual attraction with a well-mannered/respectful man.... like an awareness that percolates up from the DNA making me know that if I was stuck on a desert island, I could merge with him, no problem! Otherwise, it's irrelevant to my life, so I keep it compartmentalized as IRRELEVANT because I am not into wasting my time with ignorant sexual behavior.

But rather entertainingly, the 3 minute awareness happens with the whole gamut of mankind: stocky guys, lean guys, dark guys, pale guys, bald guys, hairy guys, differently abled guys, 7-11 cashier guys, road repair crewmen, professors, engineers, garbage truck men, students, CEOs... It's the prelim to 'feeling a spark' (a spark, to me, involves more all-levels interplay). Basically, my DNA finds about, oh, around 30% of the world's population of men in my age range, sexually attractive - and I know it. That's hundreds of millions of men...

But I don't pay it any mind, because life is about much more than sexual compulsion - and I know few men qualify for my true specs. Probably only one per billion....
