Every once in a while someone makes the same stupid statement about the gender imbalance in China, and it has to be clarified again why it's not just that simple and so on. There's plenty of opinionated basement dwellers that think they know it all here. I don't mind ignorance but when they try to come up as factual/enlightening it's aggravating.yick wrote:You can tell you have never ever set foot in this country.banano wrote:700 million of women means nothing when you have 800 million horny and desperate menThat and your mathematical equations are very basic and not aligned with the state of play here.
Most Chinese men are not in the stakes of getting married, due to the fact that a lot of them cannot afford a house for their prospective spouse, if you take away all the poorly paid manual workers, farm labourers and rural dwellers - that evens it up a lot.
I hate to gang up on Ghost but i agree with this, the dude is being too lazy to work out, i.e "weight is not a problem for me right now", then wonder why he has not enough choice (sounds like Winston), and too lazy to advance more in his Chinese , i.e. "i don't have to, so i won't" kind of stuff WTF???yick wrote: Secondly, though most Chinese women would not be seen dead on the arm of a westerner, however, a good 30% (my estimate) of Chinese women are certainly interested in Westerners - which means there are more women who you are able to date than you can personally handle, basically - you have something like hundreds of millions of women to choose from.
That means, Ghost has a lot of choice - if he wants it.
If he doesn't want it - fine, go to the Philippines - but what isn't happening is a slow death through loneliness.
It is just laziness, entitlement and procrastination that is stopping him getting what he wants.
Don't blame China, its women or their culture. That is ridiculous.
And he still hasn't really explained what is so "alien" about these chicks. Well no shit Ghost, they're Chinese and there's some differences, but to just cross out millions is ridiculous. And no long ago you made a thread about Filipinos being sub-human scum, I wonder what would it take then to make you satisfied; like i said it seems you always manage to find fault with everything with that cup-half-empty mentality.
That is true but only to a point, at least you have to fricking get up in the morning by yourself, you're using that argument as a crutch. And stop with the "by a thread", you sound like an existential 80yo but you're in your twenties, snap out of it. What the hell is "by a thread"? you find a chick/job doesn't cut it and you move on man, you're not crippled or something. I still advice everyone to work out or do a long walk, at least once a week, not only to lose weight but to improve the mental state, it works wonders."Making it happen" is a modern day myth perpetuated by the cult of positive thinking. It isn't reality based. Human beings can be capable of great feats, but so much is out of our control and hanging by a thread. Of course one does what one can.
No need to lash out man, just pointing at this stuff in good 'spirit', no pun intended haha.
