IS YOUR WIFE THE SAME ONCE IN THE USA???

[PalestineMyHeart 1,897]

Actually, I was just trying to make a point about how RIDICULOUS it is for people to make sweeping generalizations about ALL the men or ALL the women of an ENTIRE COUNTRY.

But it seems some people actually believe their own hype.

I assume that hardtodescribe was giving her empirical impressions of the two cultures.

Anyone seen Sriniv lately ?

All I know is that my Yank girlfriend is good at cooking, laundry, housework etc, she's a great way for me to get into the US so I can become a male prossy and deal drugs.

You two crack me up! I am gonna use male prossy in a sentence!

Heheh. Well, ####### me backwards with a bargepole, I appear to be starting trends with vocabulary.

....also, is it just my girl, or do other Brit guys notice their other halves swooning when they say words like fourteen, (pronounced four 'een)?

I am glad that he's going back now, I hope you have a lovely welcome pressie prepared!

You girls kill me. Not only do you belittle and insult those of us males who disagree with you, but then you completely ignore, discount, or even make fun of the eloquent posts of several non-American women who have posted similar opinions... or who at least have offered their own remarks from the "outside." I guess the views of these women don't matter either because they come from "archaic" countries and have been oppressed for so long that they really can't think on their own like you liberated, empowered, know-it-all b*tches. Yes, I agree with what someone said many posts back, that you've done a very good job proving our point for us. I don't think one of us has a problem with our SO's changing and growing, but I hope to God that none of them turn into you. Just like I hope all those foreign men of yours know what they're getting into.

[TracyTN 237]

Interesting that we are 'girls' (not to mention b*tches! ) but the non-American's are 'women'.

At any rate, this topic screams for the 'beating a dead horse' emote. We decided to say sod it and just have a laugh.

Sorry if that isn't interesting reading for ya!

Good try! But, no I'm not Sriniv. I am an oldtimer but one who ain't as prolific a poster as many of the oldtimers hanging around VJ.

Well, my SO has been here for a year and a half and we are doing pretty good except for a yelling match here and a screamiing episode there

Other than that, we've bought a new house which we both love. Myself got promoted which turned out to be a bane rather than a boon. Job got more demanding but have learned to adjust overtime.

So, all in all, things are as peachy as they can get!!

A year and a half later we are strictly abiding by "Cleanliness is Holiness" doctrine. That means we do our laundry every day or every other day despite 17 years age difference. Can't hold myself back from boasting.

And we do organic laundry. No man-made chemicals involved... no viagra, no cialis

This is uxorious reporting from somewhere in the U.S. of A.

oh dear....

Foreign man happy and content 2 1/2 years into the marriage and 1 year here...thanks very much for your concern though...

Glad to hear it! But just wait until those old-fashioned, bigoted, oppressive American men get a hold of you!

Whoa.

No offense, but I really don't think anyone on here cares how much laundry you do, how often you do it, or how well your organic sausage is cookin'. Ew.
