First sweeping generalization, and it doesn't even come from me :-)

Agreed.

Strongly disagree.  The above behaviour is motivated by a wish to get
the man the female wants, not to let him show off after he's nailed.

> 1. Asian women look prettier longer than American women.

To a small degree that might be true.  I doubt how much value that
would have by itself.

True, but I don't have how valid the above explanation of it is.

Wow!  Hold your horses.  I was married to a model.  Nope, if ability
to wear high fashion clothes has anything to do with it, I would have
still been married.  Just look at MTV.  No, American women can dress
just fine, and when they're in their prime they can look deadly.

You're about to hit the nail right on the head.

>    ie. "She's very beautiful AND she takes care of me!
>         Do you wish that you were me?  Are you envious?"

true... only because *care* is a forgotton word in this society

> 2. Thai women value the family more than the individual.

Yes!

As hopefully they both will.  Yes, a concept of aging together seems
as distant to American women as monogamy.  Anything that requires
thinking and commitment beyond tomorrow is an unthinkable burden and a
cruel and unusual punishment.

As a side consequence of this "who cares about tomorrow" attitude,
American women want to have the right to do anything they wish, but
they want to take no responsibility for the results of their actions.
If anything happens, it is the man who is at fault and who ends up
paying for it one way or the other.

I think you spent too much time on PatPong and Soi Cowboy.  Those
women are professionals.  One has nothing to do with the other.  Of
all things, I would say American women are generally wilder and better
at it (at least initially) - they had more practice.

Nonsense.  I think you are confusing certain areas in Bangkok or
Pataya with the rest of the country (particularly *in* the countryside).

Why, by no means.  But then I would say that Thai men are very
shortsighted...

This is, IMHO, the most important reason why American men like Asian
women.  They are tired of being hated and scorned on every step!  Many
American men still believe in family and cooperation, not hatred and
competition within family.
