To be frank, if a woman is overweight, then I am absolutely
not interested. I work very hard on staying in shape. I have

that is a fact.
Not that every western women I have met is a wildebeest, but
there is also the weird defence mechanism that kicks in when
a western women comes to Korea and has all her illusions
shattered about being good looking. Korean women are HOT
and I think western women have to adapt to the new environment.
I think Korean women know how to attract men. They know how
to dress and how to act in order to produce the desired effects
from male suitors. They, Korean women, have not forgotten the
famous French saying: "Viva la difference". |
What a load of tripe. I take it you're fantastic catch (with such a classy avatar). 
I don't think it's a 'weird defense mechanism' as much as the fact we come onto boards like this and the male posters take each and every opportunity to post how repulsive we are. The creeps who come to Korea to sleep with as many women as they can get their hands on aren't the type I would go for.
I couldn't care less what the male ESL teachers here do or don't think about me. It just pisses me off that you group women from so many parts of the world (America, Canada, Australia, the UK and so in) into one category. There's a hell of a lot more diversity in 'the West' than there is in Korea, and it's hardly fair. |
I thought he made a very valid point. Sometimes the truth hurts though. |

add me to the list of western guys who still like western girls
i haven't had the slight interest in korean women because i'm not attracted to the three types: 1) women who try to look/act like girls 2) women who wear tons of make-up, and 3) passive, quiet, maybe at best: demure
give me a Western feminist any day! the modern woman back home is interesting to talk to, open and expressive, natural beauties from the inside out (gawd i miss women from university)
i was never without a girlfriend back home, from age 17-32 nonstop (maybe because i was the modern newage sensitive guy, which helped). Then I come to Korea and it's been almost four years notta, simply because i haven't been interested in the local types and have not been willing to settle.
to each, their own. |

I would have to agree with VI on point number one. I've gone out with some nice K-girls but I've definitely found them to be a little immature. I realize that that's a gross generalization but it is my experience so far. After saying that, I think Korean women are, in general, very beautiful. The other issue isn't so much their problem as it is mine. I'm just not interested in marriage or children. That probably puts me out of synch with 95% of the women in this country. |

| So, a drunk with deep seeded fear of commitment is calling others immature? |

I always thought the term was "deep-seated."
2 entries found for deep-seated.
deep-seat�ed (dpstd)
adj.
Being so far below the surface as to be unsusceptible to superficial examination, study, or treatment: a deep-seated infection.
Deeply rooted; ingrained: deep-seated ideological differences.

It's a relief to have no need of them in your life whatsoever, isn't it? (not that there aren't some wonderful white women over here - there are - just that if white women existed or not, it wouldn't make much difference in my life). |

Yeah. I actually feel sorry for the poor saps at home who have never been abroad, and don't get that perspective. But that is not just the men-are-bad beliefs, but also just the general cultural morass that people don't realize they are part of.
Course, there is the leveling somewhat when the first divorce mid-30s to 40 hits, when women are "freed" from their bad husbands, only to have reality hit them when they discover no one is interested in a borderline-obese, uninteresting, opinionated boar.
Then men finally start realizing they don't have to put up with the nagging, complaining, and fatness. Most of my married buddies wives have packed on the pounds, including the ones who haven't had kids yet. |

They should buy their wives treadmills for their birthdays. I would do it. Seriously. Shamelessly so, in fact. |

Most of them already have exercise equipment, gym memberships etc. But why use it, they're married? |

They should use it so their husbands don't have to put up with fatness, and also for health reasons. |
