If an American man sees how happy his friends/coworkers are married to a Latina and wants that for himself why disparage him?
So... it's okay to bash American women but it's not okay to bash the guys who bash American women... Huh... Actually - if you read the posts - we could care less if they want to go off and find themselves a foreign wife - just leave the insults to us out of it. I just don't get it - thread after thread bashing American women - and yet these guys can't understand why American women don't want to be with them. It's like - You don't want to be with me? Well - you suck!!! I didn't want you anyway! I'm gonna go abroad and get me a woman and you'll be sorry!!!

Guess what? Nobody wants to be around someone who hates them - so until these guys stop hating women - they'll never get one. It's as simple as that.

Generally I don't care but let me make it simple for you. The reason why we get defensive because you guys JUDGE (keyword) and categorize us as "gold-diggers, anti-family oriented, materialistic obsessive, and nazifeminist" (I've seen this word over and over) when it doesn't apply to all women. Would you American men get defensive if one INDIVIDUAL person made a thread about how American men wants sex, booties, and are superficial people who have low self-esteem so therefore they aren't real men"? If the OP and others want to find a foreign wife, by all means, GO FOR IT. QUIT bashing American women and we won't get defensive. Simple as that. What happen to the "we're all individuals and prefer different things"?




Make it simple for me? LOL.. thanks for making my point with your snide remark! best of luck to you!

Salma Hayek is actually of Arab ethnicity. And from a very rich Arab family in Mexico.

Where? I certainly didn't. I have nothing against American men or foreign women. I'm married to an American man. My father was an American man. People are people - no matter where you go. If you find love here - great! If you find love in another country - great! My friends parents met on a ship - he was from India and she was from Argentina. Sometimes love just finds you. But to say that all American women are crap so you have to go elsewhere to find a decent woman is insult and unnecessary. However - you don't seem to have a problem with that. Okay.

Dishonest? About what? You seem to have some sort of axe to grind with me and maybe you feel that insulting me will make you feel better. That's okay. Okay - have a nice day!

I signed up a few months ago. I've since found out that I am instantly disqualified from most of the women on that website-- even when I do a custom search narrowing it down to women who are between 4'11" and 5'4", ~80% of those still want guys who are taller than me-- even the girls who are ~5'0". Not making this up-- you have to see these profiles to believe it. I went out with a girl a few months ago who was 5'0" and I thought she was way too tiny for me. Of course that doesn't stop me from sending them messages anyway. The response rate is extremely low though. I've only gone out with 2 girls I've met from match. I'm on another, smaller, specialized dating site which doesn't let you publically state height preferences in your profile, and that one has let to dates with 7 different girls, fortunately.
I just ran a quick search on Match.com for women between 4'11" and 5'4" between ages 21 and 35 in my area, NYC (i.e. the most shallow place on Earth) and 11 of 20 accepted a man 5'8" or shorter.

Yea. Short guys have it tough. I'm shorter than you. But you will not get anywhere in life thinking 5'8" is a MAJOR handicap...
