For guys who don't want to be single any longer

[Paprika]

Already answered your question in the above post.

I didn't want to live forever in either Japan or Korea. That was why I didn't marry either lady I began to see when I was there.

Oh, I see now. You think that a focus on the financial status of the partner is a 'bad' attitude. So yes, I do assert that for those who sought to marry you that they had this 'bad' attitude, that they would likely not have bothered if you were poor, that though you may not have been wealthy by Western standards they would only have been interested if they thought you could provide at least enough for financial security.

They don't accept me in my homeland because I believe a wife is to be submissive to her husband. God says this is what is expected of her (Ephesians 5:24).

That's not "warped" at all.

[Paprika]

I accepted the Filipina I married as my wife.

Explain your point better.

You think that the women are awesome primarily because they're willing to accept you, unlike the women in your homeland. That's a rather warped perspective.

The issue is the warped valuation of women as presented in his OP: Asian women are supposedly "awesome" - not because of their own virtue, not because they recognise good qualities in the husband, but because they're willing to accept him as boyfriend/husband.

I'm not going to bother to read all that garbage.

If you or anyone else does not agree with what the Bible has to say about the husband/wife relationship I could care less whatever else you people ramble on and on about.

A wife is not equal. Functionally she is to be submissive to her husband. This is what the Bible declares. Denying this would constitute being "foolish".

Typical. You ignored everything else in my post and focused solely on less than half a sentence. I'm not going to bother responding for now, because if you click on the archived thread that I linked to, you'll see that your objection was already answered in that thread and you never responded to it. In the meantime, please do read those linked tweets. That was kind of the main point that I wanted to get across.

So keep whistling in the wind.

This is what you asserted. South Koreans and Japanese constitute "Asian women".
So it is not a red herring at all.

Red herring was directed at your bringing up "bad attitude" which I didn't talk about. By the way, have you made the experiment?

Also, one wonders why you didn't marry one of these Japanese or Korean women you mention. Is it because they have their own ample income and are more likely to stop being "submissive" and walk away anytime they like?

[foudroyant]

I'd suggest an experiment: see how many of these "awesome" Asian women you'll attract if you signal that you aren't rich as they expect.

This is what you asserted. South Koreans and Japanese constitute "Asian women". I attracted plenty of them and they knew I am not a wealthy man - not even close.
So it is not a red herring at all.

Nice try at escaping your own words.

[Paprika]

and yet in Japan in South Korea they don't have the bad attitude (nowhere near as much) that goes along with financial success.

I don't think I ever disputed that. Nice try at a red herring.

[foudroyant]

My point about money is trash, yet all women would want to be financially comfortable?

as fellow human beings and equals

[Paprika]

I lived in both Japan and South Korea and I met plenty of really great ladies with nice incomes.

It's not just about money but also about social status, as I pointed out. Do try that experiment I suggested..

You make a stupid face because you couldn't refute what I asserted. This proves your point about money is trash. Most all women would want to be comfortable financially but here unlike in the USA you wont get the bad attitude to go with it.

foudroyant's right: they're not weak-willed. The issue is the warped valuation of women as presented in his OP: Asian women are supposedly "awesome" - not because of their own virtue, not because they recognise good qualities in the husband, but because they're willing to accept him as boyfriend/husband.

[fm93]

Prove your assertion.

Why? Your post proves itself. When you say "Hey, you're just average looking?...perhaps less than average? Even overweight some? No biggie," the message that comes across is "Do you think women in your country are refusing to marry/hook up with you because you're unattractive? Then come get easy and complacent women in Asia! You won't feel like a sack of crap for being ugly anymore!" It's purely an ego-booster and plays upon stereotypes of Asian women being submissive and thereby controllable, without risk of fighting back or standing up for themselves. And then you said this:

All my life growing up in the USA I thought I was going to go crazy with all this "What about my rights attitude!" among so many of the women.

Women who make the radical claim that they, as fellow human beings and equals, have rights just like us men do bother you so much that you think you're losing your sanity? That indicates that you view women as inferior to men, which is essentially the definition of sexism.

Also from the OP:

Treat her nice, be kind

That doesn't excuse the sexism any more than slaveowners who were nice to their slaves were justified in viewing said slaves solely as property to be used for personal manipulation.

But while the last time you posted this you were simply a chauvinistic nuisance, your post this year comes at a time when this looms large. Six young women at a university in California were murdered this weekend by a male student who couldn't "get" a girlfriend and was bewildered because he thought he was essentially entitled to women. While he seemed to be mentally ill, his killing spree was influenced by the same attitude expressed in your post. In response to the tragedy, the hashtag #YesAllWomen started trending on Twitter. I suggest that you visit the site (if it's allowed over in your country), click on the hashtag, and check out the tweets that come rolling in. Read them carefully. Don't try to launch into rebuttal by complaining "But not all men do that!" Just read and digest. Try, if you can, to sympathize with the experience of living in such fear and worry and trauma in the face of injustice. I believe that if you have a heart, it'll break after you read the tweets. Then, hopefully, you'll begin to understand why your posts in this thread are so horrific and appalling.

Here's a sampling of some of the most poignant tweets. And here's another.

And here's the archived version of your thread from last year. Let everyone see the universal condemnation you received, along with how immaturely you behaved and how you made a thorough fool of yourself.

Live in these countries for awhile and educate yourself before making moronic guesses.
