    Make a sentence......."on head nail the"
    As unkind as it might sound, have you noticed that the majority of men that marry foreign women are not exactly what one would call 'a catch'. Those that I have known have been in some way socially incompetent (that's not necessarily a bad thing) and out of tune with either their bodies, their male counterparts, social situations or a combination of each of these; a marked lack of confidence being the general trait.

    Perhaps, the warmth and less judgmental reception received from the first woman - who just happens to be from warmer climes - is their perceived only chance at happiness. Who cares that her motivations might be less than honourable - a free pass to the UK, for example.

    Having lived in a country where I have seen women treat white men (however ugly or depraved) as gods, it is not incredulous to witness the union of low self esteem.

    I know that this is a sweeping generalisation and there are confident, handsome, high achievers who have found their life partners in a foreign land and have made successful marriages. I also understand why some men would point-blank refuse to entertain a relationship with a British woman.

    My main point is that in analysing this subject, the onus should not be concentrated on the women. Perhaps, more focus should be directed at the men - in particular those that actively seek women abroad - and what drives them to foreign love.

    I'll have to admit Pluto, I'm not really a wild and ruthless mercenary, a trained hardened killer, hands stained with the blood of a hundred deaths. That was just a joke. I'm really just a fat, balding old sales rep who couldn't get laid in the UK because of my speech impediment and chronic halitosis. I have no friends, have callouses on my right hand, and can't even speak to a white women without feeling giddy and nauseous.

    Buying love in the $hit holes and short time bars of Subic Bay has been my only sexual release in decades. Who cares if they loves me, if I can get laid once a week that's love enough for me :wub: :wub: They're happy, I'm happy, who is going to psychoanalyze and say it's not right???

    I'd love to star in a channel four documentaryabout losers and lust. I could show you all the best short time bars in Luzon. Joe Public needs to know that there is more to life than a Saturday night in the pub, a shag with the lights off and two weeks a year in Corfu. Life is not a rehearsal.

    There was nothing personal in my message to any board member, but if the cap fits ...

    Come to think of it, I believe that is EXACTLY what Heideh is planning to do:

    We&#39;re looking to make a film about UK men who have found or are finding wives abroad. This could be for a number of reasons i.e. they like a different culture, they’re sick of UK women or they’re simply looking for a new experience.

    "There are thousands of foreign women now living in the UK, people who have made it their home, who have married UK men and are having UK families. They are very much part of our fabric yet remain somewhat of a silent presence.

    We&#39;re particularly keen to give a voice to these women. Women who have left one culture for another. We want this to be a film about their lives made by them." (Heideh)
