And just moving there young turns any Asian...or any race completely Caucasian?

Those freaking crafty Canadians.

Yes. It does. It snows there. Is this really the thread for this?

Agreed...although it is super fascinating.

Well this thread was an interesting read. That is until the R&P crowd came in and derailed it shortly after the feminazis brought them over.

Back to topic, the post by Juliet and Steve was spot on for many who come here, although, from a personal experience, some of these points were hit (we find each other extremely physically attractive for the reasons he listed) and some miss (I'm not interested in gaining her submission in the pre-60's traditional sense, nor is she poor or cannot work) in regards to my fiance and I.

We just ran across each other in a public forum similar to this one and started talking, found each other attractive and compatible, fell in love, and it went from there. Same story as any geniune relationship really. It just so happens the inconvenience of being in different countries at the moment. Signs that she or I was interested for other reasons would have manifested themselves long ago, and simply haven't.

As far as the stereotypical reasons, our age difference is only 13 years and she is over 30. What's more, she has asked me to move there, and we compromised (that we would retire to there in 20 years).

Damn all the women who are becoming too independent.

That had to be some of the most ignorant, sexist, stereotypical nonsense I've ever read. I don't know what's more worrisome ... that it was written or that it's being praised as gospel.

What an interesting example of a woman totally invalidating the feelings of not one, but many men, because she doesn't like the message. It seems to me many men understand and relate to the message. But I guess we're wrong to feel those feelings, or to feel we've experienced such things. OK good for you, go on believing it. But maybe, just maybe, if so many men are reporting and feeling it, maybe its a lot more prevalent than you realize.

6 pages, and all I've seen so far is wildly-imaginative egos. what happened to the Fiancees' expounding praise of their men?

A couple is a team--a team works together supporting each other, meeting each others needs. Independence, assertiveness and the ability to find your own path are all elements of a good marriage. A couple should be both dependent and independent. In certain circles, be it business, social, economic or educational independence and the ability to excel individually is fine. I have no interest in overshadowing my partner Juliet and frequently, as we often study together, it is she who excels--the competition is fun and productive. She has her areas of expertise and I mine.

My gripe with Western women is not so much independence--a woman can go off to Timbuktu and live alone for all I care. If she does not need a man, that's here choice. My gripe is that over the past several decades Western women have fallen into a materialistic, and often needy frame of mind. No man is good enough--so go look for another man with a newer BMW. I suppose that's a sort of independence.

As far as Juliet and I--well, we depend on each other. That's our choice--any who wants to focus on independence--go for it.

A pertinent thread was going on in the RUB regional forum last year, and similarly, no one was being inflammatory or tarnishing everyone with a broad brush. See here, si man:

I agree that Steve's posting was the highlight of the thread and got derailed.

As he said that "S" word is a hot button for many people: women who do not want to consider themselves to be submissive; and men who do not want to consider themselves to be unenlightened neanderthals. Steve substituted the word "feminine" but even that raises the blood pressure for many. I think the words get in the way of a basically valid concept. I was around back in that "traditional" era and there was certainly not one size fits all; not every man was Ward Cleaver; not every woman June Cleaver. But I will say that men and women accepted that they were fundamentally different and were OK (and even reveled in) the difference. Whether that made the men more dominant and the women more submissive I don't know, but there was a more distinct difference, which IMO works better than what we have in the West today. Attraction is created by difference and that difference between men and women can be observed strongly in RP.

I was at a party recently with about 25 Fil-Am couples. As many such parties go, the men and women separated; the guys drank, ate, and shot the breeze; the women laughed, sang karaoke and periodically checked up on their men. The feminine energy generated by the Filipinas was compelling. Whether that's caused by attitude, upbringing, lack of feminism, or just a strong excess of estrogen, it was exactly what I love about Filipinas.

I think most Filipinas that are considered submissive are those who are scared of something.
