leave my son?

[Kiechi]

I think we're talking apples and oranges here. What's "greasy old men" have to do with why you get pissed?

And btw, how old are you? If you're younger, you'll get over any insecurities you have. I had some too (I was adopted by an American couple at birth in Hong Kong and was brought here), but as you age, you get over that. I'm 35 btw, and I'd say once I got in my early 20's it didn't matter.

And what's "Me being Lloyd" have to do with anything? Is that your attempt at humor??

I'm 17. As for the insecurities? I do have reason for them. Being called a racist for holding those notions offended me thus, the little outburst.

Obviously he finds it disgusting that much older men are buying arm candy. Personally, I concur. I think it's a pretty repugnant practice myself. So let him be disgusted by it. It looks like you're going out of your way to be offended by his thoughts just because you're slightly older and trying to associate to the age difference. Toughen up a bit and don't make a mountain out of a molehill.

Phew. Thanks Zekk. One moment there I thought what I was thinking was wrong

So if the guy wasn't "greasy" but clean shaven and washed, it'd be ok?

C'mon, I thnk we're talking about two things: I thought he was talking about inter-racial matters, not about sugar daddy's and arm candy. Correct me if I'm wrong.
And btw, my dad was 15 years older than my mom, and I don't think anyone thought of my mom as "arm candy".

But thanks for telling me to "toughen up", I'll try to do just that.

You obviously seem to be the only one missing the point. Stick to the maths.

Aye Aye Aye. Oh, mail order bride, good idea.......google.com

[Zekk_T_Strife]

I think the issue was the simple practice of it all. Old men buying their women less than half their age and parading them around. If it was ever mentioned to be old white men then it was probably a general observation that it's mostly white men doing this. I'm white and I take no offense, it's an observation. The term "greasy" as kiechi is using it isn't really referring to the hygiene of the men but the quality of their characters. Just as you might call somebody really low and disgusting a slimeball or something to that degree. Lemme know if I'm explaining incorrectly kiechi.

[misombra]

so how do you know the man is a "greasy old man" walking around with a mail order bride? or are you just assuming that is true. if so, then if i were lloyd i'd be pretty insulted too. but he's not. therefore no need for him to "toughen up". that kind of shit goes on everywhere by the way.

anyway i'm not butting him here anymore, just stop the arguing, nothing was meant by my comment quiche, i'm sorry if you're offended.

You're in idiot. It's pretty ****in' disgusting that an old guy would PURCHASE himself a wife a lot younger than himself just because he can afford it. It's basically "life-long prostitution" or "slavery." A lot of these women don't even have a choice in the matter.

So, you'd be perfectly fine if a guy in China bought one of your daughters?? Think about it ....

This is totally flying over your head ... subtract the "greasy white guy...interracial...etc" stuff and think ... even if it was an old filipino guy buying a young Filipino girl, Keichi would be disgusted. He's referring to what he sees in his own country of England where the population of Filipinos is that of mail-order brides and housemaids.

again ... read it thoroughly

But back on subject ... my aunt lived in Los Angeles for 13 years before she moved back to the Philippines permanently ... she got a lot more money here than over there and she used to money to support her family. The situation that lovestruck faces is different because her son was 14 by the time she went over here and her husband was still in the country.

Tough call ... but blood is thicker than cash in my book.

No thats completly it, thanks. I guess I shouldn't of used the term greasy which in fact is english slang.

Exactamundo.

How else would a 50 year old man come across a 20 year old woman? I doubt they bumped into eachother one night at the nearest walmart. Even when I was on the plane to PI, I saw old fat ugly men travelling there. The reason they were going there was apparent.

Oh for the mail bride order thing = Most crap you read on the forum to date huh lloyd?

"THE 'mail-order bride' industry can be an incredibly cold and callous trade. If you are in any doubt about that, you need only click on to the Internet and wonder at the name of one particular service offering "marriage-minded Filipinos" - "The Mail Order Bride Warehouse".

Heartless businesses such as this have been occupying human rights campaigners for decades, but progress against their activities has been limited. In fact, their trade is booming.

Every year tens of thousands of young girls and women are packed off to the West under the pretence that they will be entering into a rewarding marriage and a new life of prosperity. Nowadays a huge number come not just from South East Asia but also from Russia and Eastern European countries.

Very often, the women are trapped in actual or virtual slavery, or in rings of prostitution.

Some 50,000 women are lured to the United States alone every year, but 90 per cent of the 35,000 trafficked women who leave the Philippines each year go to Japan, There they find themselves sold on as brides or as 'entertainers', or as victims of the 'Vaginal Economy' in the sad words of one women's rights campaigner in Manila.

Many trafficked women, and even girls, are indeed victims of fraud and fake marriages through the male-order bride system. They end up in loveless marriages, in forced prostitution and repressive labour. Others are almost enslaved by uncaring husbands who deprive them of personal freedom, money and civil rights and use them as sex objects.

You're in idiot.

Bite me you fargon arsehole.

[misombra]

oh man what have i done. you guys just stop. this argument is about as stupid as the one where the guys claim they have it worse than the girls. give me a damn break already there are many injustices in the world and most don't involve us personally. now quit calling each other names like a bunch of children and get over it.

[Kiechi]

Bite me you fargon arsehole.

Don't Eric he'd like that!

[Lloyd95]

Never! Mmmm, you can bite me too?

[shh!]

Silly boys... (shaking head) Always got to be fighting over something. I think I like it better when you are fighting over who has the biggest weenie...
