Frankly, if you're willing to respect yourself, and stand by your values, you shouldn't need to worry about anyone else disrespecting you or forcing you to change what you believe anyway.
My mom taught me that if I wanted respect I better do something to earn it. I understand your love of the entitlement culture but the truth is you are not entitled to even the least bit of respect.
You know I am just thankful to find a thread on this forum that is actually having a discussion between male and female unions instead of same sex.
I can also understand why a number of males look to Asians and other women for a mate. Many American women no longer see the male as substantial in in any relationship. Just look at the single mother stats to figure that one out. Unfortunately for the female race she is crashing and burning at proving little to no success on that one. As I read these posts, I find myself being ever more grateful for my mate. He is an all American male and I am an all American female. We have been together for multiple decades. Raised children who are functioning well in society. I walk beside my mate. We are equals. He brings things to our relationship that I can't. And I do the same. I call him the head of house, and I am the heart. Each has a distinctive roll to play. And both are just as equal in need if you are wishing to achieve balance.
Yeah, some chick in a magazine in a backwater sinkhole of a country will probably marry you. But trust me, and trust the many men who've been burned by them, it isn't because of her "traditional values." It's because her life sucks and you're her ticket out.
Why don't you just get straight to the point? :mrgreen:*yawn* More whining from the strike-out crew, blaming their own issues with getting a date and keeping a mate on some evil feminist conspiracy.
You might have already answered the question. It might have gotten missed. Have you ever hired a man in your current supervisory role? If so, what is the mix? 10% men/90% women? 50% men/50% women? 75% men/25% women? or no preference/doesn't weigh into the decision at all? Some people might be curious about the situation.
I didn't answer the question on purpose. Your gender tangent is bizarre and not worthy of indulgence. I'd be willing to bet that you are the only "some people" curious.

The fact is, America is far less feminist and less equal than many of the countries you folks would prefer to "get your women" from. I don't think any of you even know what progressive gender dynamics are, if you think for one second that America qualifies in the grand scheme of developed nations.
It's also kind of hysterical that you fail to see that talking about women as though they were various flavors of soup and whining like children might be part of the reason you're having a hard time finding a date.

This goes both ways -- men are the predators in some other countries in Europe, tricking vulnerable Eastern block women with free movement in the EU.
I'm sure I'll be accused by people who know better of all the usual -- the archetype of the man-hating feminazi psycho -- despite my endless hours and tens of thousands of words dedicated to discussing gender issues going both ways.
But fine with me. I don't really concern myself with impressing the furious projecting type.
For your information, I never took a womens' studies class. I find those people unbearable. Just as unbearable as their inverse, shown here.
I Am not surprised with the results of the poll......Sadly most Americans nowadays don't have the opportunity to marry and Asian woman.
I thought this was my imagination running rampant.
Some of these posts are just ridiculous....we should ask how many of them have ever lied to a woman to get sex? lol
(And then ask them why they had to lie! lmao)
How did Henrin like this post twice?
Maybe we wouldn't have to lie if women weren't so damn hard to impress.
It's pretty rare that I'll make a serious effort to get in a girl's pants (I don't really care enough, under most circumstances), but my friends and I will come up with fake backstories for ourselves before going out all the time. The funny thing is that it usually works.
One of my favorites is to simply switch all our names around, and pretend like we're from out of town.
Me: "Hi! I'm Bay. This is my friend, Greg! We're in from Atlanta. What's fun to do around here?"
Other friend: "Hey!"
*Flirtatious small talk ensues until Other, other friend who went to the restroom walks up*
Me: "Hey! I'm Bob! What's your name?"
Other, other friend: "Hey! I'm Chuck!"
Me: "Hey Chuck! We're from out of town!"
Other, other friend: "Nice to meet you! You guys want some shots?"
Me: "Sure man! People here sure are friendly!"
*Aside to girls as soon as he leaves* "What a weirdo, amirite?"
lol
Geez, for someone who says this you sure do talk about it a lot! :2razz:
I have friends that are pretty much all about it, unfortunately.
I just kind of tag along for the ride, and try to make things interesting so that I don't die of boredom. :lol:

Mmm-hmmm. A likely story! :lol:
That's a terribly simplistic view.
People have a habit of masking their flaws in order to gain trust, only to change radically once the commitment has been made. This fact has overwhelmed even the most principled of people who once thought as you do now.
There are a lot of rubes who think that Asian women, who grew up around Asian men and Asian standards of beauty, like American men with their (relatively) big noses, sweaty bodies, and hair growing from every crevice. These deluded naifs don't realize that the only reason they're willing to leave their country and their families behind is so that they can suck the money out of their wallets and their bank accts and send it back home to their real family.
Well, I don't agree white men are unattractive, and cross-racial attraction is quite common. But I mean, if it was about "traditional values" (in their minds, subservience to man-children with control issues), why even bother with men in other countries? They can be treated like crap right in their hometown by someone who actually speaks their language. Why go across the world? I thought part of "traditional values" was caring about your own home community.
Do these guys seriously believe these women are the least bit interested in them for anything other than money and visas?

:shrug: strictly speaking for what I observed, I saw several pretty loving, long-term marriages between the Americans stationed overseas and the local women they married when I was in Japan. The "she's going to marry you, take all your money, screw you over, and then leave you" problem was actually far more prevalent in the U.S.
