Sexy doesn't mean naked people (no master how hot they are) exchanging body fluid, or girls in short skirts with 80% boobs revealing. That's called trashy, well maybe I am expecting too much from North American culture to which subtlety is completely incomprehensible and Sexy has to mean stereotyped female body parts and intercourse.
Stop vilifying North American culture or anything that don't fit your sense of aesthetics. Just because you can't appreciate it doesn't mean it's trashy. How narrow minded can one be to view the world in these lenses?

Yes, I am sure in China, where you come from, everything is just so sanitized and non-trashy. Btw, I saw this video on China Central Television during prime time - you would think a public broadcaster such as CCTV would have a little more discretion with their programs:

I was only in Toronto and Montreal for a short amount of time, so my observations could very well be false, but this is what I saw on the streets of both of these cities:

1) There were slightly more males than females, a slight shortage of women
2) The men that I saw were very good-looking, maybe even more so than in the US. I've read somewhere that Canadian actors are quite popular with US film companies. The average man seems to be more clean-cut, polite, in shape, and well-dressed in Canada than his US counterpart.

Together, these two factors tell me that competition for women could be rather tough in Canada.

Did you realize how much American TV mock good students: thick glasses, no sense of human, uptight, often not attractive and socially awkward, as if doing well in school makes one dumb in other aspects, while being smooth with hot girls is soooo much more important. You can't say that does not affect people's value.

Sex is sex. Dogs and pigs have sex every day. So do flies and rats. There is absolutely nothing "cool" about having sex at all. That's my point. The media should not lead people otherwise.
I totally agree. Alot of the most popular shows build up guys that sleep around as cool and people that focus on getting good grades as looser. This message is messed up.

I tend to be over analytical at times, but I do have a minor in Marketing and know too many people with eating disorders not to agree with the bulk of this. Example .. Game of Thrones, True Blood, Sex in the City, Girls... all really interesting show and story lines, but easily soft porn. Sex and violence do sell. Images in these shows and on adds do influence our values and behaviours. For example if you analyze adds for certain foods ex. Chocolate and ice cream most of these adds indirectly suggest eating these items are sinful, sexy, should be secretly consume and provide pleasure. Also the women portrayed in these adds tends to always look like they are basically having an orgasm or are secretly eating (which suggests women are really not suppose to be eating because their role is to stand around, look pretty and wait for guys to select us to have one night stands with them).

What the hell ... there is really a site for everything. I read some of these articles... funny is all I have to say. (ex Women Are Not Justified In Being Very Picky). Only 5-6 days with a chance of getting pregnant ... hey guys try pulling that line on a girl you are trying to have a one night stand with and see how far it gets you LOL, "Hey baby there is like only a 20% I can get you pregnant so lets just roll the dice and see what happens!"

Isn't it amazing how many people feel that way about Toronto women?

Many feel American women are whores. You don't hear that about Toronto women. So I guess it's better to be perceived as a prude than a *****? No?

I can't say I disagree with this but the alternative is censorship.. I'm not really sure that is a good option...

There is a plus side to being down played ex. someone expecting you to be a prude.

1. You may be able to gain a bit more respect. A male who's ego is way to inflated maybe be humbled back in to being more like a human which will in the long run be better for him.

2. If you do choose to hook up with someone who is expecting you to be a prude.. if you are really not he will be in for the surprise of his life and a really great night. The surprise factor .

3. You contributing to helping recondition men as a whole through the concept of positive reinforcement ex. talk to be appropriately I will reward you... talk to be disrespectfully I will not acknowledge you in a nice way. Be honest men out there you at least each got to know a few guys you are just plain respectful to women. There is truly a group of men that really still need to be talk back down in to reality. Every women you meet if they think hard enough will be able to recall some situations where they were really treated like second class, piece of meat.

ex. In my early 20s having an interview to work as a personal assistance for some business man who basically said I had the job, I was a pretty girl, but he needed me to wear shorter skirts and basically less clothes

Out with friends at a night club dancing having a guy that was not drunk try to approach me by whisper in to me ear that he likes girls that are big and staring down at my chest

Walking in the mall and being approached by a guy who's opening line is your ass looks nice in those jean

This is not respectable behaviour. I am not saying that most men I have interacted with in this city act like this, but idiots that talk like this do actually exist in this city and are likely the reason so many women are still cold and abrasive. Women need to make sure that men know that they can't mess with us. You may be physically bigger or stronger in some cases... but that does not mean you can push us around and undermine us.

So you assume every man is going to be abrasive. Maybe you attract what you put out. Maybe if you put out a different aura you will attract different males. Maybe If you initiated interaction with who you were attracted too you would get the guy you want. Maybe if you didn't put such a big stuck up wall. The sweet decent looking guy will get the courage to say hi. Every time i been out to America I'm always amazed how such pretty girls are incredibly nice and down to earth even ones on magazine covers. Or looka likes. Lol. Or even in europe girls will make it so obvious they are staring that at you that if you say hi you know your in. It seems like pretty girls here are super entitled and bitchy. I don't know why. Maybe they need to feel superior or something. Like look how good I am I shut down that guy. Or they just get super nervous and their go to move is to seem disinterested. Group think Is definitely a thing in with toronto women too. One year they are all complaining about you the next they wish they made it workout because you are going to be super successful. It's like you want to cross the finish line but bypass the whole marathon. If you didn't put in the work you gotta give up the goods. Lol jj.

Hello, I am a Canadian girl who lives in Toronto. Do you think you have what it takes to date me? I’ll go on a coffee date with a man who has all of the following:

I want you to be confident, but not so confident that you’re arrogant.

I want you to be witty and engaging in conversation, but not too witty that you make me feel dumb.

I want you to be intelligent, but not too intelligent that you’re a nerd.

I want you to be nice, but not too nice that you’re a pushover.

I want you to be fit and strong, but not so strong that you’re vain and look like a freak.

I want you to be funny, but not so funny that you’re a stand-up comedian.

I want you to be family oriented, but not so family oriented that you’re a momma’s boy.

I want you to take all my bull****, but not the bull**** that is actually testing your masculinity.

I want you to compliment me, but not too much that I think you’re needy.

I want you to be aggressive in bed, but not so aggressive that I don’t feel any romance and tenderness.

I want you to be supportive when I have problems, but not so supportive that you’re like my dad.

I want you to take care of your appearance, but not so much that you look better than me.

I want you to have a successful job, but not so successful that you work long hours and neglect my needs.

I want you to be humble, but not so humble that other men come across as more accomplished than you.

I want you to be kind and send me flowers, but not too often or I’ll think you like me more than I like you.

I want you to be affectionate, but not so affectionate that it smothers me.

I want you to be faithful, but not so faithful that I can’t at least suspect you could cheat with other women.

I want you to be serious, but not so serious that you’re not spontaneous and fun.

I want you to be a great conversationalist, but not so great that I have to wait long to tell you how I broke my nail.

I want you to be independent, but not so independent that you don’t really need me.

Unless you fit every single one of above criteria, **** OFF. I don’t date LOSERS that are scared of a strong woman who speaks her mind. Also I know I have a big booty, but I don’t date black guys (I’m not racist because my BFF is black). I hope you don’t mind a full-figured woman who is at a healthy body weight.

Oh yeah, I have a 8-year-old daughter who I love WITH ALL MY HEART. You’re not going to get with this unless you can handle that. Don’t waste my time. Bye.
