結婚相手探し

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?

Wow....sure is a cruel world out there. I think I'll stick with 2D girls... ^^

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!!!

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...

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.

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.

Biased and projected. I could find similar results in certain areas here in southern Cali too. *shrug*

lol...photoshop

ITP: Gold diggers

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

i'm still sticking to my 2D girls lolz XDDD

ktnxbai XP

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.

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.

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

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..

I'm gonna stick with my 2D girls, they never complain about looks or money.

Both groups are stupid, you should just find someone who you really care about....Especially marrying just for money is as superficial as can be

I think being rich is more impt, you can fix ugly but if you're poor, you're poor.

With good personality I think... good looking is important, but the real thing which seduce me is the mind.

LOL those women who are looking for a rich guy are speaking as if they were very beautiful women... wich they are not !
It just make me laugh...

These women sound like American women.

Visit Brazil! =) We can consider a rich person if u get about 4,000 USD/month (near 50,000.00 USD/year), u can get a pretty girl, with nice eyes, lots of pantsu, but rarely they come with Otaku and with fetish.

if all girls are like this will stick with 2d girls all my life...

Not sure I'd have anything in common with those girls even if they did approve of my income or looks. Where are all the Otaku girls hiding? ^-^

where's the option for BOTH $$ and looks?

Hmmm...4 that's the only choice, I'm gonna say no! I don't want 2 judge anyone, especially my soulmate, I just believe that I will be given the best from God! I do really believe that love is a given~

I could never have a partner that wanted to be with me just for my money - not that I have a lot in the first place but thats not the point - I think its very unfair the way some women treat men & at the same time its unfair the way some men treat women.

you may have a partner that looks like she fell off a make up tour bus but can she cook? can she do the ironing??? can she work a washing machine??? & does she have a high enough I.Q to know that theres more to life then 300pairs of shoes & enough make up to rebuild the titanic from scratch?

Im not an asshole - I will spend money on gurlies but i dont work my bollocks of just so they can take liberties. one of the many things that infuriates me.

the women who continue to laugh at lower paid workers as well as those who refuse to even get a part time job - go jump off a cliff - your a waste of space & with all the make up or millions of pairs of shoes we may even save a whale or 2, possibly a few camels or snakes even.

I refuse to be part of such one sided relationship - & it doesnt matter to me if she will give me all the sex in the world I will still refuse. - im not here for her entertainment

you got to be kidding me, those girls aren't even good looking, and they're looking for a rich guy. for me, i'll totally avoid any girl that looks for money, who knows what they'll do to get it. by the way, i got nothing, no looks nor money, guess i should stick to 2d or candy girls.

surely personality must matter at some level. Although, I've heard that at some level marriage is more a social/business decision than anything else.

Also, you're site won't load at all from ie7.

what if one is neither rich nor good looking? O_O

At this generation this world is getting greedier.......

That's.... Interesting.

Money and looks don't bother me, well looks do bother me if the girl is literally diformed... But I wouldn't care for a nomral girl with a beautiful mind!

Thank goodness more Japanese girls want poor guys who are good looking! I can't even afford gundams right now.

We need people like Kanata in the 3D world. :3

MONIES >=O

"i couldn't even buy make up with that money"

haha wow a bit vain. :X funny though.

Thing is when you fall in love sometimes nothing really matters :P
But i guess sometimes not everyone get to marry who they actually love ^^;

Putting those women aside, before I got married I had met a few specimens (male ones) whom I think will be a LONG LONG time before they find someone :P VERY LONG ^^;;;;;

Wow, how ironic that the people who actually think materialistic things matter look like the people you want to avoid like the plague in the first place.
As for myself I absolutely don't care what my soul mate would like as long as she's fun and caring and she doesn't care I'm a not wealthy klutz I would be very happy already .

hmmm interesting...well at least theres a girl for every guy. No matter how messed up it might be...

id go 4 neither best rule 2 life is "hump & dump" if those r ur choises

Those are some really, really shallow women. :/

They mostly want the monies and the powers, but they'll take a good looking dude or anything that is a novelty too. Personality doesn't really have anything to do with it. It's great because you know what to expect and you work with what you have.

Guys...

Why so much attention on the gold diggers... Look at the cuties who say they want a good looking guy even if he is poor. Heck, gold diggers are everywhere... These woman are long past the marrying age. No one will be rushing to snatch then up. Makes no difference if they are old and/or ugly rich guys.

Danny is right, Japan is full of great girls looking for a husband. If you don't want to believe me, just ask some of the single guys living in Japan.

Make a couple of Japanese female friends and don't go hard core otaku on them. Next thing you know, you will have several Japanese female friends.

Doesn't make a difference if it's Tokyo or elsewhere in Japan -there are some drop dead gorgeous girls in Osaka. Trust me, Japanese girls are always looking for clean, nicely dressed, fun guys.

Argh, that is so annoying that they didn't even bother to factor in personality when asking, they just asked looks vs. money! For me, personality trumps everything, but if I was asked this question I would probably respond with the poor good-looking guy, as I just totally don't care about money at all so looks are a more important factor than money, but not the most important factor at all.

Good god, I'm screwed. I have neither the monies, nor and excess of good looks. T_T

This is why I want a cute little girl. They don't care about such things :3

No monies or the looks. It makes me so angry.

eew! those girls weren't even close to cute i wouldn't touch them at all.. ugly gold diggers... if you are going to be a gold digger then you had better look the part.. (really hot and easy) not poor and unattractive!

Yeah so the "lady" from the omiai pub should really only make those comments if she didn't look like someone clobbered her face with a sack of oranges and then she got plastic surgery and the surgeon got confused and looked at a picture of Mao 1/2 way through being done.

I think this doesn't only apply to Japan! With the living of standards climbing like every second I'm pretty sure the marriage mean would be 40+ soon. Perhaps then we'll be rich enough to marry ourselves off?

Wow and I thought I was shallow...

Women? Candy Girls? useless to me T__T

What about guys?~ xD

LOL at those 2 ladies who want to find a rich man. Good luck at finding a man with that face and attitude of yours.

I guess that there are many women after rich men only, just like there are many men after pretty women only, but not every women/men are after rich men/pretty women. ^_^;

Personally, I don't really care about a guy's look (as long as he's not too ugly/fat/slim/short ^_^; average looks are fine), as personality/compatibility is what truly matters. Him not being rich also don't really matter (besides, being with a rich guy and live a rich life might actually be troublesome!), as long as he's also not a bum of course (I'd prefer a guy with a similar financial situation, I'm happy to live an average life if I can find happiness with the other person). ^_^

Nah... noone needs to go to Japan to find women thinking like that. They are all over the world.

Just as much as men looking for a fine piece of bums without concerning about any other characteristics whatsoever.

Humans are superficial. That's how it goes. That's why divorces are reaching new highs.

But anyways, on another note, I saw a few months ago an article saying that less and less japanese women are worried about getting married, or looking for husbands.

With high standards like those, it's not hard to understand why....

Hey, its strange, because here in Mexico earn 4,000,000.00 yens anually is to be rich.

And earn 15,000,000.00 yens anually it's to be extremly rich.

In mexico you could live like a king with that money, even with 4 millions per year.

So it depends.

Money and Looks do not matter to me-it's all about finding someone I love. I plan on making good money anywhoo, but I won't let them know that until they know me well =).

Love and a cute girl is all I want, no money is needed to complete me!

But, I was wondering, what is more selfish: Wanting a beautiful girl or wanting money?

Might just dash the dream of a few people hoping to come here to teach English AND get the Japanese girl. They will fall about 7 million short from what i hear ... thats for the 10 mill search too.

There are still nice girls around!! (not me, but there are....)

I'd rather marry a woman who's got average looks but is intelligent and sensible, don't really care if she's poor or rich.

When i found my girlfriend, she was not the most beautiful girl, she was way shorter than me at 4'11" (I'm 6'2"), But she was still adorably cute.

She has a pair of captivating eyes like a 2D girl and she also has another pair of "captivating eyes" (if you know what i mean)

She has a cute little button nose and kissable cheeks. And everytime i hug her, she makes this cute little sound.

But most important of all, she's intelligent, capable, and mature.

She's also a talented artist, draws anime way better than me, she's good at math and works hard to achieve something.

She also accepts and puts up with whatever imperfections and issues i may have. When bad things happen, she comforts me and encourages me to be more strong.

Guess i'm just really lucky to have somone like her. Hope other men find someone like her too.

intelligence trumps everything and of course not being bastardly in personality

I am not surprise about this actually. Woman need a guy who have some money on hand or a steady job that make some income. Without that, they won't come near you or have a relationship. This is the real world and it's sad but it's true.

Better get a job soon......

Sigh.. reality is so hard sometimes. But why would those ladies above need to apply so much make-up even though they are staying in the house most of the time?

What if you have an unattractive personality like me and am kinda ugly? lol could spend my $$ to improve my looks but not my personality.

That profile picture thing scared me. Oh god that's really creepy i can't believe that's even her. She must be like a master at photoshop.

And THAT's why I never really did trust myspace....>.>

Yea... they're asking for way too much money with below par looks. They give off a pretty greedy vibe too. Good looks are nice, but I think that you should really like people for who they are on the inside.

i agree with you man, as for me dont care whether they are rich or poor or average just as long they have a charming/a-ok personality

i prefer a woman that work her ass/talent to get what she want, and doesn't depend on me

neither do i depend on her, we love each other, but doesn't depend each other
its cold but deep relation^^

None of them. That's it better a 2D girl indeed. More i hate women that think money as parametre of marriage.

Call me laid-back or an idiot, but I say: whatever happens, happens. Looking at my attitude, I won't be attracting any who are specifically aiming for those two qualities either XD

Well, at least in Japan they have it easy. In Singapore, you can forget about getting a decent date if you lack any one of the 5 "Cs"; Car, Condo(small but really expensive apartment :/), Cash, Credit Cards(I prefer debit cards; less risky) and Credentials(Certificate is to narrow a scope). That's the new world order for you...

well... i think shibuya is not quite the representative place for such a survey.

i'd be interested in what osakan girls think about this topic :)

The way it looks, it's interesting how it seems like the younger ladies are less materialistic and these older women are much more so. I wouldn't say this women are ugly, but the way they view husbands as merely someone who can give them a more comfortable life as opposed to a marriage partner makes them seem ugly in the inside.

WTF? Seriously talk about gold diggers or at least lazy ass broads! Ha they better smoking hot! if they expect the guys to pay for everything i mean come on!

we made all for they. And make money is something we can do.

hmm...pretty sad to either choose good looking or rich but the place where this survey is being taken is kinda one-sided I would think...shibuya ;p

for me, personality is tops...

then looks and money. lol

Its amazing people only care about money and not the person's personality. Money sure as hell can't buy you integrity.

I'm wondering myself, is there anything people with this attitude do to make themselves worthy or deserving of rich spouses.

Wow those are some serious salaries. 0_0

i truely hate gold diggers. Its doubtful ill ever like these witches if i ever met them. Im more into the down to earth average girl, likes to have fun go out and enjoys life in general. Too bad its very rare to find, theyre usually already taken :(

oh to the hags asking for 150k salary men...kiss my ass.

A man earning 15,000,000 yen per annum should be able to find a better wife than those women. Now you know why not to look for a wife on the net.

The point is there are about 3 million surplus men of marriageable age in Japan, so these women have a good chance of landing someone. However a guy earning over 15,000,000 yen per year can easily get himself a great-looking import wife if he wants to.

The average annual wage in Japan is under 4,000,000 yen but that probably includes arbeito workers as well as full-timers.

The lady should look into the mirror before setting her goals.... I doubt she will be able to find one as guys that meet their requirement would be able to find much better ladies

Women are such shallow creatures.
I'd know that. I am one.

Sadly this is what a lot of women are like, not at all. Definitely makes me not wanna get married.

2D forever!

Lol!! Well I guess here where I live there are some of these women but arent the major of all, if this opinion were dominant, japan will stop grow up I guess. And any other country with ppl with the same idea.

Both looks and personality should be decent, but in the end personality matters the most. If you want to marry and spend your whole life with that person, then you need to like talking and be comfortable with them. Looks will fade and you'll grow old, but a companion for life is the most important.

btw that lady that won't take even a part-time job should meet the back of my hand. The least she could do is win her own spending money.

Oh geee.. It is sad that Japan is so expensive that the ladies have that huge expectation on men. No wonder there is a issue with marriages and pro-creating over there. :(

Japanese ladies, do you want a true Italan guy to marry?! Here I am! :D

basically the reason why japanese salary men die early

talk about unrealistic. i doubt there are many men on these incomes looking online or going to dating parties to find love, i sure wouldn't be if i was earning that. i forsee that these women will be single for a long time until they lower their expectations to reality!
