ChessieMom,
Tell your man to take you to Japan and actually live there, not just go through the tourist spots and you’ll see what I am talking about. Reading an article is not the same as living in the country.
Sorry dude, but I looked up far more than just those two articles, (and for what it's worth - I've been to Japan. ). Your perception just doesn't hold up. But feel free to go on repeating it, ad nauseum.
My friend is currently dating a very nice guy, but she constantly complains that he always selects free events for them to attend. They visit various museums, and partake in site seeing excursions, but he never spends any direct money on her. She's not sleeping with him, but she still feels that he should buy her a gift or two and take her to a nice restaurant every once in a while.
I've advised her to leave him, but she seems reluctant, since he's so nice. Would you continue to date a nice guy who happened to be very frugal?
Is the best descriptor of him that he's "nice"? What does that even mean? The relationship sounds dull. I don't care about the free stuff, but if there's no spark or interest, move on. Is he charming and fun to be around? Does he make her smile? How does she feel when they kiss? Does she want to kiss him? If "well, he's really nice" is the extent of it ... blah.

It’s like when women go “I met a woman who went out with a poor man, see?! Women don’t care about money”. So I’ll say once again, I go out with Asian women and they don’t play gender cards with me like American. Many links have been posted before about how women do place importance on a man’s economic status, about him paying, etc. Go live in a country instead of just going to tourist spots. Also, interesting blogs. I thought women here didn’t consider blogs reliable. Maybe they are if they support their argument I guess.
You have control over whom you date. If you choose "gold digging whores" then you're the sucker dude.
Men who allow themselves to be used for their wallets are just idiots. Stop whining and change the women you date.
Would you express the same thing for women who come here crying because they had sex too soon and the guy disappeared? Would those be "sucker women who should stop their whining"?
Men who allow themselves to be used as a woman's personal ATM are idiots. Women who use dating as an excuse to freeload are as bad.

It's no different than you, who are not American, nor do you live in America, telling American people what dating is like here because you've been on a few business trips and have read a cultural differences book and some blogs.

I LIVED in the USA and also went to college there, and visit often. Way different than someone posing for a pic in Times Square and going back to their country.

Not really. You're alway deliberately vague about how much time you've spent in the States, which makes me think it's not very substantial. College dating and a handful of trips is no less a bubble experience for you to be smugly telling Americans how dating in America works.

That’s up to you if you don’t want to believe I have lived in the USA but that’s how it is. I lived in the USA, went to college, and still visit often. Not just vacations. I’ve dated American girls while living all those years in the USA and I still do when I visit.
