No lies detected...esp in a certain forum on here.

Thing is, Western women don't like the idea of a man taking his money elsewhere and not spending it on THEM so I fully understand why so many Western women attack these guys and try to discredit them.
I don’t really see women complaining about it. The women who have “priced themselves out” aren’t interested in the type man who feels a need to purchase a bride from an economically devastated county who sees the “marriage” as an escape from starvation and or worse oppression or even human trafficking. They are “priced out” because they are as educated and able to provide a decent life on their own while maintaining and developing themselves and pursuing personal goals. American women are just expressing their opinion. If anything we find in sad for both the men seeking mail order brides and the women who have little choice but to offer themselves. If it works for some people, knock yourselves out. There are plenty of American men who want an equal partner and are not intimidated by a “non traditional”, for lack of a better description, wife.

Pretty much.

LOL. 14 pages of propaganda in just a few days. This is better than TV.

I know of two guys who have specifically looked for foreign wives, both rather successful financially.

Though they don't know each other they had a few things in common. Both were in their 40's, had been married twice before, had kids from the prior marriages and spent quite a bit of time at work.

One found a lady from Laos, and has been married to her now for nearly 20 years. She is very much like the women were back 50 years ago, stayed home and took care of the house and is pretty quiet and passive. Sort of the traditional sidekick type, if you know what I mean. The other fellow found a "hot" Russian lady and she is a pretty aggressive person. They have been married for 15 years now, and she is really independent. She is a self starter and has managed to learn the language sufficiently to go out and start her own business. She is pretty successful in her own right now, and drives a big Mercedes she bought for herself.

So things go in multiple directions.

Because he finds it far easier to have this silly black and white view of women. All American women are whores and all foreign women are saints. The typical Madonna/W*o*e Complex;

As for the 'fat' thing, I did a quick google search for my county's obesity rates and it looks like we're wellllll below national average at 17%. In fact, my county is the 'fifth fittest region in the nation', so that's probably why I don't notice weight as much.
I didn't think she was weird really, she's from a different culture so I'd imagine it's not frowned upon if he was fit or fugly. Surely others might of thought she was weird, because I've hung around enough bigotry to see it. My mother used to tell me stories when she lived in the UK about people would "talk" to birds, like tourists from all over Europe feeding pidgeons. But I could tell she just liked birds just by talking to her.

About obesity, you probably live in a different part where there isn't as much. I havent been around the country but in the few places I did go, my impression is the larger cities people are more fit than smaller laid back ones like where I live. Since the French woman came here I could of been a culture shock for her.

Interesting that guy had two divorces and kids under his belt by the time he was roughly 25 then immediately found a foreign mail order wife.

It seems to me the men are just as materialistic though, they just care about 'toys' instead of being pampered. I know quite a few men my age that spend all their money on dirt bikes, lifting their trucks etc. but live with their parents and have a part time go-nowhere job.

I think, in general, millenials as a whole are a very difficult generation to deal with. There are a lot of innovators and very intelligent folks in that age range but for the most part they're very disappointing, men and women alike.
Well I have a job, I'd like to think I'm at least somewhat intelligent, and I am motivated and have goals and ambition in my life. But I think my 3 biggest obstacles are these

I Try Way too Hard Sometimes

I Still Live at Home (I Don't Make Enough Money to have my own place)

And my health (wont discuss my condition but I've told previous dates about it, and haven't seen or heard from them since then)
