My wife and I just moved here from NYC about 3 months ago and I am confused about something; What is the deal with the fat, nerdy white guys with these young, slim asian women?
Now I'm sure that its got alot to do with the whole expat package thing, but come on ladies, these guys would never get the time of day in NYC and they know it. How does Singapore society look on this, what do the ladies' families think about this and more importantly, how can the ladies "be" (u know what i mean), with these guys??
I'm not suggesting that asian women should keep with their own but aren't you asian men pis*ed off about this??

In general, fat white men have fat package (pun intended) as well. We, Asian women are not shallow lah! We don't care about looks, more about substance and umm...well...little money makes even Danny Devito look good to me.
It's not getting any smarter out there. You have to come to terms with stupidity, and make it work for you.

OK...you're messing with me now. Is it the "substance" or is it the "little money"??
As for Sing women not being shallow...uhhhh, I think Sing has the highest Louis Vitton Bags per capita in the world.

And newhere is stirring the pot.
Well, it's like this. White guys have the money, the looks, the personality, the manners, the charm, the moves and the rest.
Obvious, innit?
Or could it be that you are a :
fat, nerdy white guy
but can't get a
young, slim asian women?
Loser!

Ooh baby, would I love to mess with ya!
Don't 'substance' and 'little money' go hand in hand with each other?
What's wrong with Louis Vitton bags? Its a big brand and makes me look chic. You should buy one for me.

Had a deep and meaningful discussion about fusion vs fission with a woman carrying a LV bag. Oh, that was you, Sapphire. Still think that fusion wins out.

Hi Newhere and welcome to the red dot on the map near the equator.
What you will see after a while is Singapore is full of caucasian men who couldn't pull a root with a fist full of fifties in their own country....

Quasi, you forgot one option, he could very well be an Asian.
From NYC and can't spell Vuitton, hmm...ok I'll shut up. Wham won't like what I have to say here.

Have you been to Pattaya? I think over there fits your description of fat man and young thin asian girls!!! 8)
Seriously, I think Singapore girls know how to choose the right white man package with their eyes wide open! Of course there are always cases of ""deseperate housewives" or singles... (hehe, pun intended). No offence ladies.

Quasimodo,
You're so funny...I always love when these topics transform into attacks and stray from the topic.
Anyway, I'm married and not looking for a trophy at the moment - I'm neither white nor asian. Can't a brother just ask a question on an observation??
Does my spelling error make me guilty of impersonation...I've only lived in NYC for 25 years...please, please believe me ??!??!

Of course I believe you, Newhere. But, no longer interested in you, you aren't white. There go my hopes of adding another LV bag to my collection. Life is just not fair!
So, am I behaving according to your so-called observation
?

Honestly, there are only a handful of Asian girls who will make it a point to look only for White guys. You might have just seen them in one place and thought it was the norm.
About the Louis Vuitton bags. I don't own one!
Never have, never will!
Does that say something about my femininity or that I'm just not into fashion labels like most Singaporean chicks. (Yes, I am Singaporean)

What sort of arrogance is that. Youre coming over here and the first thing is to complain about Aisan woman. My goodness how narrow minded - if they like just let it be. No Asian girl is forced in Spore to go for certain men. Its anywhere like that....
Why are you American actually always wanna teach other folks how to behave. Look at NYC. Look at old ugly Donald Trump. Look at the grandfather whos owning the Playboy. They have very young pretty chicks. Any complaints. And some old men might do look ugly but brains is also an asset. So whats actually your problem American?
Guess youre jealous coz your jailed by your wife.
