QC your are close but it is not the men but the bleeding heart liberals. Yes as the ACLU has decided we are all too stupid to survive they have made it there mission to destroy the family and yes the bond between men and women. Right after the suck all religion and moral values from our veins. The new communism is the cause and yes it is based on me me me.
Im estonian woman who have british boyfriend, I just like brits because of their realistic attitude to life! Its just fantastic post you write here QuietCharm.
QC
I find it interesting that you - a nonAmerican man with an elaborate set of prejudism about American men and women - would find yourself to be an authority on the interaction between the two as well as the interaction between American men and Russian women. Further, you support your thread with pop psychology that I have never heard of.
That we bring about our greatest fear....? I recognize that as an overused science fiction storyline perhaps, but if it has any basis in any recognized psychological theory - I am unaware of it.
And that the divorce rate for second marriages is higher than that of first marriages? That is simply not true and I defy you to find any corroborating statistics to support your claim.
That Russian women are not impressed by flashy cars etc. because they have not been exposed is ridiculous. Every Russian woman I have met so far is extremely brand conscious - they are VERy aware of which cars are most expensive, and who all of the well known clothing designers are. Remember the GNP of these countries is quite low - but there are rich people in every one and a greater percentage of luxury cars than you will ever find on US or most western European roadways.
In short - your paragraph is loosely strung together American bashing supported by the flimsiest of evidence - nothing more.
q.c.
i have to agree with jetmba on a certain thing. The ladies i met in Kyiv were very up on the years and models of cars, especially mercedes . When they asked me what years my two m.b. were, to my astonishment they said i should have newer ones. I was a little surprised. When i showed one woman a picture of my house because they want you to bring pictures, she thought it could be newer and bigger!!! And as far as clothes, dont spar with them on who makes what with russian,ukrainians on clothes. Obviously they have tremendous taste for dressing well.
QC,
YES, there is hope. It’s called marital PRENUP.
NO, it is not the sit-down-to-pee bleeding heart male judges who are to blame for creating the current state of marital affairs in the US. The roots can be found within the entrails of the feminist movement that first sought to liberate women from domestic battery and evolved into the man eating monster it is today.
Thank you for your candid report of your own ‘married to an american woman and got burnt’ story.
It has helped me understand your blatant and never ending anti-americanism a little better.
You seem to have a lot in common with those who hate all FSU women because ONE scammer left them waiting at the airport terminal after paying money for visa and airline ticket.
Reverse parallel of sorts. But a parallel nevertheless.
Jet,
Regardless of my distaste for QC’s constant anti-american diahrrea of the mouth, his report is correct.
Second marriage casualties are notoriously higher than first or third marriages AMONG AMERICANS.
The main reason for second marriage failure seems to be the false sense of ability to handle marital obstacles. People seem to go into second marriages with a chip on their shoulders because they ‘survived’ one divorce already, instead of the humility of acknowledging they already fucked up once before.
On the other hand, hard as I’ve tried, I have found no specific stats reflecting the state of west/east marriage demographics. I guess the event is still young enough to merit documentation.
I wouldnt say just American male judges, to me it seems like our values of "take care of the woman" to the new "all is equal" has not found an equilibrium. Women in our country are still reaping the rewards of the "non-working divorced housewifes" types from before womens lib hit... Now they have all kinds of advantages along with our old bias of "take care of the helpless women" tradition.
The media is A factor...
how can something you spend so much time watching not be? Look at our current American situation in Iraq... The liberal media is hurting us allmost as much as the insurgents are. They are doing the propaganda campaign for the insurgents. Ill stop there ~) Im sure some folks dont agree with the Iraq thing it is just an example.
QC decent women our age are hard to find in the US, They are either completely unattractive or spoiled or jaded or nuts. Im sure there are SOME but sheesh how can you tell?... Maybe where you live too... it must not all be A bed of roses or you wouldnt be here either.
"Maybe, instead of RW, these men should be seeking AW with assets and income of their own. Gained from previous settlements, no doubt, or move to another country where men are treated more favourably. Iraq, anyone? ;-)))" *cough* or FSU??
thats actually funny... I have A joke I used to tell my friends " The perfect women is one that has 5 young kids by five different dads that all have good jobs"
"Some AM are in for a surprise. Most RW are not impressed by flash cars, big houses or indulgent lifestyles. How could they be? It’s completely alien. They have never needed a car, think a big house is just more rooms for them to clean and so on.. They operate under a different set of values."
Why only some AM? BM are used to this? Why on earth would we want someone that is impressed by all that? That aside.... QC let me enlighten you on something.... If you think FSU women are as niave or pure as it seems to me you do... wow. All I can say about that is.... go to Dubai. There arent that many of them there for charity. Thats as much as I will say, do the research yourself if you dont know what I mean.
"wonder since many men carry their own “baggage”… mainly about being “unfairly” treated again in divorce settlements… whether they should proceed on the RW path? What is the divorce rate for 2nd or 3rd marriages? I think it is worse than than for 1st. Will RW women be any different to AW if it all goes pear-shaped? Why should they be?...they will apply the simple principle…”When in Rome, do as the Romans do”."
Man all I want to be is appreciated. I think thats most of us. I dont see how thats baggage.... You think most the guys here are here because they want to divorce? No way man Im here because I want to find ONE person I can be with until I die. I want to raise my own kids...I dont want some other guy raising mine for me. Because face it.. In america the only real right the father has is to pay Child support. I dont know how close I am on this but I feel like thats most of us.
jmoluv, don't you get it? they were making fun of you, they're not interested, they're treating you the way you deserve. You can be proud for the title of the sleaziest person on this forum ever. The title is yours to keep, I doubt you'll ever be challenged. Man I have never thrown up reading someone's posts, that's a first.
west trav,
i can still see your a sore loser. you cant put away the gloves. olga censored your filthy mind in that other thread and obviously you cant let it go. she gave me the last word. get over it.
Loser is the one who finds it necessary to discuss in a social with the party girls over there the make and year of his bicycles and show photos of his apartment along with a detailed list of all electric appliances, kitchenware and underwear. That is you Jeofrey and this ain't nothing to do with the other one, but since you mentioned, you sikcy little Frank Castanza, your relying on Olga to bust me?
nasfan,
thanks for changing the subject. he has a problem coming out of nowhere to start his shit.
anyways nasfan, just to let you know i do exact restorations of antique harleys from the forty, fifties and sixties to museum quality condition. tank shifts ,foot clutches matched paint and finishes. i have a nice collection goin on. what year is yours? i dont know what kind of pick up you prefer but i just sold a beautiful 1954 chevy half ton i found in texas 6 years ago. absolutely no rust. i wish i never sold it. hey what about ben rothlesberger and his ribs. i hope he can make it.
I have a 99 Fatboy, but I think I'm going to sell it or trade it this year for An Ultra Glide or Road King. It is a great bike, but I still can't get used to the solid rims, I should have bought a springer softail. I want a touring bike, I rode the Fatboy three times to Sturgis and it wears my ass out on a long ride like that. Great for
cruising town, but I like to travel and it is not the most comfortable ride for that. I also like the Indian Chief but I'm not
ready to invest 28 grand in a bike yet. I have two 83 Yamaha Venture
Royales in my garage that I am restoring, but finding the plastics for them have become somewhat of a bitch. That was my first touring bike and I still love it, but it is a heavy piece of Iron, but it was
ahead of its time in 1983. I don't get too excited about four wheels, I'll drive about anything. though I prefer a truck over anything else.
nasfan,
there is a business here that has a huge imported motorcycle junkyard. all years. if you want me to check if they have your models , i will. how many miles to sturgis for you. i will be back later , i goota go.
What the hell. I guess someones eating piss in their cherios again....lol
Annika, thats what makes America different and more successful than any other country in the world...Don't know why but it is true. Family is the building block of civilization. Without it countries fall to ruin. I will leave God out of it as he can speak for himself. Oh, I forgot values. The little things that seperate us from the animals and the french!
Careful Annika, you might get run out of here, for not toeing the ‘party line’. Don’t you know this is a private club!? ;-)))
Toad
The whole world has a love/hate affair with the US. Get over it.
Many of your posts, when not full of comical ‘shock-jock’ posturing, are clearly anti-female. When a woman dares to venture an opinion, your response ranges from outright aggression to nauseating paternalism. Stop telling the rest of us how to treat women. You haven’t a clue.
Jet
If a man’s fears revolve around protecting his assets, you can guarantee a woman is going to pick up on it. The message to her?.. You care more about your assets than you do about me… and guess where she’s going to bite you, when the shit hits the fan? You are right. It isn’t psychology. It’s common sense.
My assertion about the failure rate of 2nd marriages comes from the Office of National Statistics.
Pren-ups are generally meaningless in a UK court and not an option for most people anyway, maybe the top 10% of earners, so toads view is unrepresentative, no matter how often he bangs on about it. The starting point is 50/50 then other factors are taken into account. I didn’t get burned so am not filled with hatred for ALL women.
The system is unfairly biased toward the women… another export to the 'ungrateful' colonies from America, along with political correctness, junk food and bad manners, which some of you so readily display.
As to FSU ladies attitudes to the trappings of wealth … women in the major cities might have a degree of sophistication, but in the real Russia, many don’t have a clue. Toad said himself, in a previous post, that he had spoken to 3 ladies, trying to introduce them to the joys of pleasure-seeking and they were mystified. Personally, I am not interested in marrying city girls… they don’t know how to milk a goat. ;-))
QuietCharm I lived most of my live in totalitarian country so that little message board is peace of cake! What about private club, it isnt private and all world can read that stupidity what people write here.
I was in Tallin for two weeks in the summer. Nice place... with the world's most expensive toilet! Did you meet your boyfriend through the fiance site?
