American Women

Sporadic,

I'm not entirely sure if American Geography education has improved, though I haven't personally investigated recently. I'm basing this on a guy from East Texas I worked with about 10 years ago - He was being transferred from South America to West Africa. At that time, people working in West Africa were handled by the companies London Office. This guy made a comment that was something like this: "I think this is great! 3 dog night said "I've been to Oklahoma, but I've never been to Spain" (or something like that). Well, I've been to Oklahoma & now, I'll have a chance to go to Spain! Spain's part of England isn't it?"

Smut,

It wasn't a bad question, just touched a nerve I guess. I have a number of neighbors who fancy themselves well educated and very worldly. They watch CNN and MSNBC all day long. Sometimes Fox News or one of the Broadcast networks. They believe everything that comes out of the newscasters mouth with dogmatic obedience (did that make sense? another rant). My problem with this is that, while they may not be bad news sources and while they may portray the news from different perspectives (liberal or conservative) they only portray events with an American skew (and when it comes to prostitution, that generally comes out as "modern day slavery", which, in most cases is simply untrue). Recommendations that they actually travel abroad or tune in to the BBC or something that isn't American is generally met with a resounding "NO (I would insert the "F'ing" word here, but they're too well mannered for that) WAY".

This kind of fits with your comment about all the other ways to find out about other cultures, but I have to say that learning about something third hand can't compare to first hand experience.

What's a (middle aged) boy to do?

Here's a typical american women for you gents! See why we have to go to other countries for our pussy?

Fatasses are poppin up all over the world but there are still plenty of attractive women outside of North America, the best thing is to hurry up and get one because the invasion of the fatasses is becoming a worldwide phenomenon. Still at least outside of the US pay for play is legal and the authorities don't interfere in this so there is some chance of sexual release into the future.

Cash Works,

Yeah, I forgot about how fucking myopic a lot of Americans can be. Imagine that- an entire country of people with their heads up their asses :( !

You're also right about TV not being nearly the same as being there. I'm glad we got the chance to experience other cultures first-hand :).

Smut:[quote]Yeah, I forgot about how fucking myopic a lot of Americans can be[/quote]I would suggest that [i]everyone[/i] is myopic. It is natural to be focused on local issues and problems, they certainly do it in every country I have ever visited.

The big difference, to me, is that there are many Americans who are not even [b]aware[/b] that anything exists outside the borders of ´Murica except in the most abstract, postcard kind of way. Cultural Myopia.

Ps. IMHO, Cranial/rectal inversions are a world-wide affliction, not limited to the lower 48 states.

Sporadic,

Well, yeah, that's kind of what I meant by "myopic" Americans; they have no idea that anything exists outside of our country unless Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather or Wolf Blitzer brings it to their attention.

Even then, they're usually getting only one side of the story.

On the Subject of Myopic Americans

From my observation MTV has a huge influence now on the way people think here in America, especially younger ones. Every female now just wants to have fun a la Brittany Spears, wear goofy hats like Ashton Kutcher, get jiggy like Jay-Z, cop an attitude like Eminem, and just in general make a materialistic ass of themselves. The crowds out in Times Sq by MTV studios are unbelievable . The sheeple mill around on Broadway trying to catch someone famous look outside the window from up high.

There is a hotel in Manhattan where some Japanese or Korean airlines flight crews stay at. To watch 30 lovely Asian chicks in their uniforms get off the bus is a beautiful thing. Anyway, there are some young homeless, hustler, shelter types that hang around the hotel and prey on these girls. All they do is play the rapstar role and these Japanese chicks fall hook lie and sinker for it. All because the image is on MTV nonstop. Some of these dudes just got out of Rikers too and score these broads like this.

Another thing to watch out for lately is this trendy new gay thing among women here. Madonna kissed Brittany so now it's the cool thing for girls to be with girls. When the fad ends they just go back to being straight like Ann Heche and a few other ones who play both sides of the fence. I really don't like the idea of having a girlfriend or wife that may have strapped on a dildo or ate some chocha because MTV portrays it as cool.

I actually live in Australia, and the typical Australian guy drinks a lot of beer(These guys DRINK), hangs out with a rowdy bunch, gets into bar fights and plays rugby. A lot of the local women hate this because it is so commonplace among Australian males. So when an American comes into the picture the Aussie women stick to them like bees on honey. It's incredibly easy to flirt with Australian women, when they hear your North American accent, its gets their attention.

CBGB,

Yeah, I feel you on that one. When I did time in the Navy our ship stopped in Melbourne and Cairnes while on deployment. It seemed like the second we stepped on shore, the panties started dropping!

If I didn't have such a weakness for Latinas, I'd make Ozzie my next stop :)!

I can say that I have been to every corner of the globe and have sampled the women of each corner, and I have to say for an American women to catch my attention she will have to move mountains. There are so many beautiful, gorgeous, sexy, women outside of the US.

Amen to that, brother!

Another way to look at it is that the US is pussy poor. I've never seen an online forum that has extolled the virtues of American women over the rest of the world. Out of the hundreds of posts here I have never found one saying anything positive about the American female. And often on this board, I have found that American women seem to be some kind of measure of a poor experience with women. Anyway the pattern of American men looking outside of the US for women has been around for decades.

One time I got to see a perfect side by side comparison in Amsterdam, when there was group of Dutch women and a group of American female tourists standing side by side at a trolley stop. The difference was like night and day. I've seen the same in Australia where almost all the ugly women of child bearing age turn out to be either an American or British tourist.

CBGB,

I sometimes like to compare the act of "going abroad for a broad" (get it ? :) ) to the current phenomenom of outsourcing jobs. Companies want to increase profits by decreasing overhead, so they look for cheaper labor elsewhere (i.e. Mexico, India, China, et al). American workers cost more because of minimum wage laws, unions, benefits, etc.

American pussy has the same drawbacks, IMHO. They've raised the price of their pussies, so it only makes sense that those of us who know that other lower-cost options (I'm not necessarily talking money when I say "lower cost") exist would want to explore those options. In this case, Western men are getting a lower return for the investment required of them by Westernized women, so "outsourcing" our wallets/dicks/affections only seems like a logical reaction.

As far as our general disillusionment with Western women is concerned I think we might be singing the same tune.

That argument definitely makes sense, since large corporations and wealthy people are looking to cheap labor to get a better return on their investment elsewhere, us as individuals can do the same and look elsewhere for a better value for our hard earned money.

Some of us, such as yourself, are already doing that. And loving every minute of it (as you seem to be).

BTW, when I spoke of "lower costs" in my last post, I wasn't speaking strictly in monetary terms; Westernized women can cost a guy in several other ways (just ask any divorcee). Child custody battles, degradation of self-esteem (in some mens' cases), the pressure of having to meet unrealistic expectations, lopsided expectations in relationships (e.g., she has all the rights and none of the responsibilities); I could go on, but the subject has been examined in this forum ad infinitum.

I guess our point is that when Western women go from being objects of desire to becoming leading sources of stress (at least for me) then it's probably time to look for greener pastures.
