When coming down to these two options, it gave me this thought: How many woman go for a guy who bankrupts himself to make himself look good? But before that, I wonder what will the result be if men are to choose between ugly/rich and beautiful/poor women?
my answer to you friend is a matter of preferances.some like it pretty,some like it rich,some like it both or more and thats why i say its a matter of preferances on both man and woman.there is no definative answer on what women/man really want for desires are endless
Wow....sure is a cruel world out there. I think I'll stick with 2D girls... ^^
i'm with you bro... 2d girls ftw...
haha yeah dude, so true^^
totally agree with you... a cruel cruel world... T.T
Cruel world indeed, wait for me, 2D girls!!!
Whaaat?! No way! Guys, don't give up on us girls, please! I don't wanna be single for the rest of my life... XD;;;
D@mn... I wouldn't want to marry someone who just want the monies... I wish I could find someone who shares the same dream as I and has a great personality and average looking~
What the........ Why ppl always measure everything with money??? money cant buy everything!!!
true that money can't buy everything, but i can buy a lot of other much cooler things
oh yes it can.money can buy anything.it just that money comes in different forms.
true so true.its so bookish knowledge that says money cant but everything. one cant live without money and must have some money to be happy
this world in reality, i must admit that often physical beauty is the first thing that will attract a person's interest...no doubt being beautiful give an edge at the beginning.. then when this settles, it will be the inner beauty (e.g character, behavior, attitude, kimochi, kokoro..bla bla bla) that set the reality then... then again beauty doesnt last forever... well all in all, if you already have someone please appreciate it...you wont know what you are missing until you lose it and for those still looking for the one, enjoy yourself in searching for it, the fun is the part when you are searching... hmm, its becoming a speech here.. well all in all, i think such things come in a big bundle, you can just judge it by a particular aspect such as wealth, or beauty or character, you have to judge it by the whole bundle...
love is everything friend love is everything.
These 3 women are laughable. Not only because they are money hunger mongers; those are everywhere. It's the fact their standards are so high for being such warpigs. They better be amazing in bed or something. Grab a glass of reality ladies. It's gonna be a long wait for you.
harsh words FatB, harsh words, but i agree with you. they need to take a look in the mirror before making such statements. even if they did look good, i wouldn't want someone that shallow as a wife anyway.
lol. thats what i was thinking. they are not ugly, but they are not the prettiest women in the sea. if that photo was her then mabye it can be pulled of. but she has to settle for a lil less.
There is a reason those women are still looking lol.
At this rate they will remain single and wait so long for the target they will get old and slowly wither away. Or that there are men that are really rich but forgot to buy a brain in the first place to get attracted by those money parasites.
money parasites... perfect words i must say... reality is harsh and fatb is just speaking the truth... obviously those 3 still have their heads stuck somewhere in wonderland...
i agree with u, FatB!! someone should buy those women a mirror.
Right on the money!
why are you wasting money by buying them a mirror... You will get a broken mirror as soon as they look at themselves LOL!
Now the world is a cruel cruel place... Whatever happened about a person on the inside then out. Whatever happen to a person's personality... The world is changing, in the wrong way... People are changing...ever so changing... Some for the good, some for the worst... Women that only cares about your money are the worst...
Erm, they just asked about looks and money. They never mentioned anything about personality. Personally I go after personality over anything else, second would have to be looks. I don't think I've ever considered money as a priority when looking for a gf.
Sigh... I just lost more faith in humanity, not that there was alot be begin with anyway.But, this is just sad. Whats more hilarious is the fact that those women arent even close to attractive! They must be parasite singles trying to avoid the pressures of marriage by having extreamely high standards! I feel bad for the men that marries them...
This is rather saddening...Good looking or has the monies, that seems about right here in the US too. Money is always a good thing to have, because it will reduce the amount of stress you'll have in life (Don't have to worry about bills as much), and looks are something that only matter at first. If someone were to tell me that looks are the only thing that matters, I'd say they have very little experience with relationships, it does NOT work that way at all. You could have a gorgeous girlfriend, but one personality that is just so unbearable, you can't stand being around the person. Looks may be the first thing noticed, but personality always comes out on top in the end. It'd be interesting if the survey accounted for age groups. From my understanding from research on Japan in the past, the older women care more about status and money, while the younger generation more about money. Eventually the younger generation ends up being like the older generation and the cycle repeats. Really in the end, Japan in this respect doesn't seem that much different from the US. So I'd say people are better off trusting their instincts on this one. I'll also say, it's easy to say something like "I go for young and poor" or "I want someone with money", but I think in the end it really ends up with personality.
Whoops, I made an error in my first one. I meant that the younger women care more about looks, not money. Danny still needs to add an edit button. xD
Biased and projected. I could find similar results in certain areas here in southern Cali too. *shrug*
lol...photoshop
...I learn that never to trust online chat site.....photoshop is very evil indeed!!!
ITP: Gold diggers
cue Kanye West and Jamie Foxx Gold Digger
ah ah ah ah ah so seyriu will find a partner during our vacation ! i can't wait seein him making the "nampa" has he said ^^ a lots of fun this journey, alots of fun !
Ronery ;__; Being in marriage topic: Do japanese often see bride/bridegroom runs away on the important day? *see ProposalDaisakusen
I can see Heather Mills gold digging wannabes and divorce cases popping up all over Japan and the world. Be sure to keep the cup of water away!
Hmm... if I was rich, I don't think I'd be with girls like those, lol. Money isn't really an issue for me, good looks are quite nice, but the most important thing is personality. If you can't stand someone, a long term relationship would be hell. So I guess if I were rich, it would be a long term relationship with a girl with a great personality, or a bunch of short term relationships with a bunch of good looking girlies.
i want a rich good looking gf that buys me everything lol
shouldnt it be the other around?
i guess my ID and the Avatar could be deceiving...
Nah, ornehx meant that the usual stereotype is about good-looking rich men that buy stuff everytime their gfs/fiancees/wives, etc. have a whim of sort. I admit it was quite surprising to me as well that you said this line... So unconventional, to say the least.
i'm still sticking to my 2D girls lolz XDDD ktnxbai XP
2D girls Banzai? LMAO!
Erm... I earn close to the $39kUSD mark, but no way on earth/hell I would chose any of the above girls, I would rather sleep happy at night than to have recurring nightmares. On a side note, I can see that single girls' clubs businesses will do very well in the foreseeable future.
haha, right on man. Horrid nags, they all are. The only one that was cute was the one in the first "collage" in the upper right hand corner.
The ugly side of reality... I thought this kinda silly stuffs happen more in dramas.
bah!! who needs wenches like these. money isnt everything you know. wait till your husband turns out to be a rich wife beater.
AHHHHH!!, when will they create Chii!!, T^T .
Nice scheme imo, married to a rich wife beater then divorce him less than a year. Flow chart to get rich: 1. Marry rich wife beater 2. ??? 3. Profit!
Hahah. I laughed at those three girls. They're probably looking for someone who earns big so that they could go and take surgery to change their ugleh faces. wahahah
Hah... What kind of joke is that? No seriously, I do despise that kind of woman who think they are some kind of princess or noble yet have nothing to begin with. They must be glad they are women or I would teach them how to be humble with some kick to the arse. And about the guys who do love being around them and don't care being considered as money providers alone... I pity them, I'd even say they are way to dumb to have fallen in such a deadly trap.
*too dumb No really, what is about materialistic people? The day misfortune befalls on them, they will learn how harsh life can be... But it will be too late. Damage will already be done (they will only get what they have planted: rotten fruits from wicked seeds).
that's Asia for you, China is worse. It's not rare to see a 40+ man with 20 years old gf.
Well, if they enjoy being with old, rich, perverted guys, up to them.
yes i understand how sad it is... sometimes its just not love that these young girls hooked up with them...well you guess it, its money but i dont think its always money as well.. you have understand that many come from poor broken families they needed attention and doesnt care from who it comes from also some may have a hard life when they were younger due to being poor..so they wanted/dream of a better life where they may be able to do better off and even help they poor parent even if that way is a shortcut with some old man...
Yeah, it's a different case and it is always better than prostitution or slavery, but I'm sure there are better ways than that...
but if u look at anywhere in the world, woman rather be with a successful man than a bum. money and power were part of attraction. If you are an Otaku, but u are good looking and have rockhard chest and sixpack, u can still get a lot girls...
well, from this we can conclude that all that talk about female empowerment has gone down the drain. (no offense meant, thats my view of the persons interviewed)
Yeah Setsuna-san, I'm as saddened as you on that...
indeed a saddening situation we have here...
Hold it guys, 40 is not old. ^^; I know a Chinese woman in her mid 20's and she is married to a guy who just turned 39. This is her second husband and she married him because mostly because he was a dependable man.
I dont know your friend so I can not judge on this case, IMO but for a woman normally financial status is key in "dependable"
Ed, I then hope it's a marriage of love, not of interest. Exchanging the exclusivity of one's body (maybe purity in the best cases) and mind for money alone is something I can't look without a seemingly disgusted face... Even if some do not have a real choice in this.
I do I say this without sounding like an jerk... Err...with experience comes perspective. Ugh that doesn't song right... Some women marry older men because they find older men to be more experienced in all things. Dependability means money, but it also means being able to count on someone strength of commitment to the marriage as well. Heck some younger women find older men very sexy. Yes, these two are very much in love. One of the strongest relationships I have ever seen. I'm trying not to turn this into a long post. I hope what I have said is clear.
In that case, I'm very glad for them... No objections on that as for once it is not about stereotypes.
I really don't think it's Asia, it's really like that anywhere. The world has really changed in 35 years or so. Before the woman would be subservient and the man would be expected to ask her out and then things would progress to marriage, etc, out of living up to the expectations of society. In recent decades though, especially now, women are basically given control of the "sexual destiny" of males. I don't even really need to demonstrate it to avid readers of this site and otaku in general. Just look at moe and such. The "tough" male is dying off to some degree, and increasingly you see "old-fashioned" girls adhering to that type. Men have to actually appeal to women most of the time now, and women make the choice of who they date and how fickle they're going to be about when and IF they get married. There's more to it, I've taken a sociology class built around it, but yeah, "sexual destiny" is the operative term.
Bulls-eye, dude. You'd be surprised to know that research is going towards making it possible to have babies without the "male" equation.
harsh words but it is the truth, because it is a harsh world >.<
People like that exist everywhere, but somehow i see more of them in Japan than anywhere else.. Ex: I had a student friend from Japan come over to America last summer. We brought him to the best Japanese restaurants in town and all he could say was that the "food wasn't fresh" which, duh, is totally true. That meal cost over a hundred U.S. $$. But at least he could've realized that he was smack in the center of this freakin' country (sorta) with a salty lake surrounded by flies. He didn't appreciate ANYTHING. 4th of July parade, State Fair, anime con, Obon fest, normal teenage parties, etc. etc. Waste of money and time. D: I think i'm off topic now.
Those Japanese women are so superficial its unbelievable!!! So 40k per annum is not much and saying that it wont even cover her make-up. Then what she needs is surgery. Honestly there's a boundary from dream to reality
It's not just women. I had a Japanese guy refuse to give me his number because of my social status. D: And i thought i was rich until i met him.
ouch, that sucks sooo.... want my number? lol
You were just unlucky. guess he was a jerk after all (unless I am mistaken). Sorry if I offended you on that.
But people with income exceeding 10,000,000 yen p/a are likely to be in a higher managerial position which, of course, requires them to have solid personality (the interpersonal skill) as it's needed to lead subordinates efficiently and effectively. Except maybe if they earn their lotsa money not as a manager but as a passive incomer..
These guys, if lured would then reveal to have a covert liking of being submissive... Right? Sounds Freudian, I know.
You might be right, since their motivation for honing their interpersonal skill is likely for the sake of maintaining their high position in the company. But maybe, companies with bright/cheerful culture, (google?), may actually have managers who honestly like to socialize. Oh btw. Furukawa-pan's manager is the type of manager I want to work under with. ^^
