That's an interesting statistic. Shocked


Choose them for what? A fling or marriage?

I think that might be a small part of it. But from my experience in Korea, a lot of guys, unfortunately, just like a girl they can feel superior too, and who will pick up their socks for them. Sad

Well, *sigh*, all the good men are either married or gay.

Several of the guys I work with say that now that they know about Filipinas / Thais, they'll never even DATE a western woman again. All the rest nod & say "Amen", "Don't you know it", etc...

Don't exactly know the reasons, but that's what I've seen / heard...

That comment says a great deal more about the men who say it than the Asian women. Rolling Eyes From what I've seen, they are no loss to any 'Western' woman... but I do have sympathy for many of these Asians.

I have a feeling, in most cases, it was the Western women who said they wouldn't date them first. They have no choice but to look elsewhere.

Give me a break Rin. Korean women are not pushovers. I have been married to one for 15 years and she never picked up my socks. Do you think it could be because they are good mothers, loyal, value family and are not lazy? The sour grapes I heard from large lazy western women in Korea was unbelievable.

Right. Western womyn are s-o-o-o- desirable. Smile

So Western women aren't good mothers, don't value family and are fat and lazy...Wow, no wonder you guys won't date us! Add the. I'm a western *beep* that I hear from men all over the world and It's a wonder I can't get a date.

I agree with Veiled sentiments, I feel sorry for the Asian women. In fact, I feel sorry for all women.

And I didn't say that Korean women were pushovers, I said thats what the Western men think they are.
