Who is the Armenian girl that our guys strive to marry.

Re: Who is the Armenian girl that our guys strive to marry.

Perhaps some of our members who reside in Armenia can answer your question.

Do such people exist as members?

Re: Who is the Armenian girl that our guys strive to marry.

haha, let me take a crack.

Looks
You are probably not the very attractive type. Most guys would rate you around 6/10, maybe less. You don't get flooded with attention, but you get enough to take it for granted (meaning that it barely registers consciously, but subconsciously you expect it). You claim, to yourself and others, that looks aren't as important as intelligence, both to yourself and in your choice of a mate. Utter lies of course. If you had the choice you'd be the one every girl is jealous of; but I'm sure you'd have a hard time admitting it to yourself. I bet you even attempt to "convince" yourself otherwise by mentioning it to friends/colleagues at opportune moments.

Personality
You have a superiority complex. Though you may not openly admit it to others, you feel that you are much smarter than most (or all) men around you, and as a result you have a hard time accepting criticism. You surround yourself with others who would most likely agree with your points of view so you can reinforce your own idea of yourself. You may even have a decent IQ score and pride yourself with it (Secretly or openly you probably believe that your higher intelligence makes you better than others). You have absolutely no trouble applying twisted logic to all your interactions. The double standard comes naturally, and you may not even notice it. If you cannot beat an argument you'll find other ways to "win". If given power you most likely would abuse it, but will justify it with the fact that since you're intelligent, smart and "better" then your point of view is correct and needs no scrutiny.

Am I getting there? 60%, 70%, 80%?

Here is a hint.

Future => 12 cats (or maybe a whipped husband whom you'll treat as your slave. There are a LOT of women like you in the academia (in the west). And most end up either alone or with a poor schmo who gets pushed around).

But, I'm sure you're not one of them

Come on .. be honest ... you copied this out of one of those generic self evaluation quizes out of a women's magazine, right? The language sort of reminds me of the "horoscope" type drivels that you see all over the place

I haven't followed this thread much but I could only hope there are a lot more women in academia like Siggie. And for the record, "ending up alone" is really not so bad if the alternative is ending up with a "traditional" type of guy that treats women like his property.

"ending up alone" is really not so bad if the alternative is ending up with a western type of girl that treats men like a work horse and cheque book.

There are many kinds of "western women". As much as some like to put down feminism, it has had good and bad effects: The good is that now there are independent women that have earning power and don't need a man to survive. The "bad" is that the traditional marriage thing that so many old-timers like to cling to just doesn't work anymore. People get together, go their separate ways, have a lot more freedom and less need to commit. This isn't necessarily bad unless there are kids involved.

But "western" girls are MUCH less dependent on their men's money than the traditional girls that depended on the man's money 100%.

Hmm. Time for a career change. I should start writing for a women's magazine and make tons more money since everyone knows most women are complete idiots over horoscopes.

Hmm, a traditional guys wife = wife has an easy life where she does a little housework, a little cooking, goes shopping and knows she'd never have to bust her ass for anything if she doesn't want to. She's free to pursue her interests, that is until kiddies come. You better believe it that in return the traditional guy expects her to behave as he sees fit, and doesn't take sh!t from her. He might treat her as his personal property (during sex, and you better believe how much she loves just that). Most women would happily trade places with "traditional" guys wife.

Now, how many guys would trade place with modern woman's husband? Only the complete retards.

If the traditional wife had it soooooooo good, why did feminism come about? Why did so many women embrace this change so whole heartedly? Were they, are they, all idiots? Did they all make irrational decisions?

OR two people can find what arrangement works best for BOTH of them in their relationship.
You're assuming the "modern woman's" life wouldn't be happy as well. It all depends on what we value as individuals.

If a man thought of me as personal property and didn't treat me like a person with wants, needs, thoughts, etc. I wouldn't care if he was raining money on me, hired a full-time housekeeper for me, or gave me all the material things I could possibly want, I would walk because he wouldn't be giving me the most important tangible of all...respect.

That's what Sip was talking about... I can take care of myself, so I don't need to tolerate that kind of thing.
On the plus side, the guy I end up will know that I'm with him because I genuinely love him and not being "taken care of."

contemporary societies are dominated by selfishness and immaturity. this is the core issue.

Because no woman is ever happy with an ass-kissing wimp.

And where do you get the idea that a traditional man treats his wife as personal property. As for what I said, read again, I mean during sex.
And lets not kid ourselves, 99% of women would settle with a wealthy guy, regardless of how he treated her.

That's what Sip was talking about... I can take care of myself, so I don't need to tolerate that kind of thing.

That's what every other western woman says. That is until divorce, then suddenly all his flaws start to matter. Love doesn't last long enough for a marriage to succeed. Genuine love is bullsh!t.

Traditional middle class wife had it much better than a modern middle class wife. Feminism was embraced and affected mostly middle class women. But, feminism was never about women. And yes, while an individual woman may be smart, a group of women can be no different than a group of sheep. This applies to people in general, not just women.

Propaganda is meant for a group not for individuals.

Re: Who is the Armenian girl that our guys strive to marry.

Traditional middle class wife had it much better than a modern middle class wife.

In what sense? The traditional middle class wife certainly couldn't vote, couldn't hold property, didn't really have any freedom to pursue any of her self interests. So how did she have it "better"?

Feminism was embraced and affected mostly middle class women. But, feminism was never about women.

What was feminism about then if it wasn't about women?

And yes, while an individual woman may be smart, a group of women can be no different than a group of sheep. This applies to people in general, not just women.

Not sure what you mean by this? Do you also mean a group of men can be no different than a group of sheep? But what does this have to do with anything?
