I wonder if Willie Green would want to put a tariff on an Asian bride.

If it's bad form to be asked (and to HAVE to be asked!) to help care for the children you helped bring into the world and the house you help pay for, then I suppose you would find a traditional Asian wife more accommodating.

Well, if the Asian women are adopting Western-style attitudes, what's the point?

Considering the attitude of many Japanese men, I can see why they want American husbands.

"Considering the attitudes of many American women an Asian wife may be preferable."

Might want to read the article carefully. It looks like these Japanese women want Western husbands for the 'equality' thing. Not sure you'd be getting anything different.

Not for a friend of mine. He hooked up with one, and she is a completely wack job. Spending them right into the poor house to boot.

Er, a complete wack job too.

She don't drive, don't work, but spends his money as fast as he makes it. I am talking a spending machine.


Only a matter of time till it ends in disaster.

I've read a lot of crap so far about why American men want Japanese wives and vise versa. I was married to an American woman and have dated many others; the woman I'm married to now is Japanese.

First of all, American women are a pain in the ass. Sure, there's an occasional gem to be found, but many aren't worth the time you waste on them. Various psychoses, 'me-culture' vanity, general screwed-uppedness, etc. I'm sure that men are the same way, but I'm not in the market for a man.

For example,my first wife left me because, in her words, "being married wasn't fun anymore." I'm sure that my Navy career had something to do with it; besides bitter complaints that I didn't make enough money, there were the deployments--known in the Navy as the "you're not here, but (insert name) is" syndrome. Hey, at least we didn't have any kids.

American women I dated weren't much better. Even fat, ugly, bitchy women expect to marry doctors and lawyers because they are so special. Sailors and schoolteachers don't make the cut, unless there's an emergency.

Fortunately, I got stationed in Japan. After my divorce, I was a complete misogynist; I didn't go to Japan to find a woman, I went to get away from the ones I already knew. Turns out that I met lots of wonderful women who weren't neurotic/narcissitic, didn't weigh 300 lbs., and didn't give me the 'tude.

My wife is hardly a pushover or a doormat, like most American women would claim. She's nice, fun to talk to and go out with, doesn't mind when I got to do 'man stuff' (grr! Me fix!), puts up with my bizarre habits ("Why do you read so much? Are you taking apart the computer again?"), and doesn't mind handling household tasks--does that make her a 'good little maid'? I put up with shopping, visiting mom, and all the other stuff that goes with having a girl in the house. =)

She's not looking for a Green Card, as others would snidely suggest; hers is expired, and we aren't looking to move back to the states anytime soon. For those of you who have never been out of the country--yes, America is a great place to live, but there are other places that are just as good or better, Japan being one of them. And (gasp!) some people like where they live, and don't want to go to America. Imagine that!

The only things she misses about the states is the big oven for baking. The only thing I miss is being able to go to a bookstore. Other than that, my foreign bride and I are happy where we are. I'll leave the American women to the rest of you.

We already had a thread on that a couple years ago and it went up to thousands of posts, I think.

Whatever happened to that 1979 supergroup from Japan that was, for a time, even bigger than Abba?

I'm talking about Pink Lady!
