What in the world could I possibly be thinking when I read this?
I have an unnatural need to know what makes a healthy-relationship So. Call it obsession, call it addiction, call it having-too-much-time-on-my-hands, but the quest for wholeness in my mind goes far beyond my laundry-list of adoption issues -- my quest is simply all rooted and stemed from them!
So... I find the following article written by a man, (I'm assuming, but these days, who knows anymore?). And he offers some friendly advice in terms of finding/attracting a certain-type of female.
Ok, I'm female, and I like a good game of cat-and-mouse, so my ears are perked, ready to see what this guy has to offer. If nothing else, I think it's a fun ride to read through the mind of a "dating-expert". Many a good laugh I have had at the expense of these poor bastards. This will be my first public-pouncing... this is what I found: (personal comments by me will be seen in italic print)
"What to wear to make Asian women stalk you everywhere you go" True line, go see for yourself: By Tu Tran, http://ezinearticles.com/index.php?What-To-Wear-To-Make-Asian-Women-Stalk-You-Everywhere-You-Go&id=1046064
If you want to attract Asian Woman that you really like, think about what kind of man she wants to be with. Uhhh, a man who would love and respect her for who she is? For example, let's say this woman likes a man that is educated and is relatively wealthy. OOOOOOOH, you mean let's be really superficial about this hunt... OK! On your date night, wear a nice flashy business suit and make sure your hair is proper and slick. Because slick hair means you are... you have... slick, what?
In addition, if you want to attract a girl that is fun and interesting, wear something flashy and bright. Because apparently Asian women find bright flashy things magical and fun to play with, and it keeps them quietly ammused? Try to stand out from the crowd. These girls like you to be unique. So don't too many men read this article, please, it will lessen the chance of a man finding his Asian Woman. So if you have some quirky personality, don't hide it - show it. Use your negatives as positives. Boring clothes and hairstyles will only attract boring girls. True, women can't see beyond a man's clothing; we're stupid. We're not nearly as imaginative or creative as a slick-haired guy wearing flashy clothes!
.... yes that's me making a loud colorful response.
You don't want to look like you just finished working on your car with grease and dirt on your clothes. Think rationally. A common saying is what a man wears is what's his personality is going to be. A man of many moods, confused-sious says. Key phrase here is "GOING to be like"... so Asian women seem to like men who change personality as quickly as they change clothes?
Also, Asian woman would notice small things like snipping your nostril hairs and that you have just shaved. I think there's a WORLD of women who notice fur from the nares, but hey, what do I know about grooming, compared to THIS guy? They like men who looks after themselves. They don't like to date guys that look like a poor vagrant. Make sure you don't put too much cologne. The smell can overpower women and it makes you look like you tried to hard. I will allow a moment of silence for this understatement, because he really earned it, didn't he?
There is two important things that any men should always do: Always take a shower! A lot of men have very bad body odor and any woman with common sense will runaway from these guys immediately. The other thing they should do is to make sure they don't have bad breath. If you can't brush your teeth for some reason, buy some chewing gum. At this point, I'm really concerned about this guy's reading audience....
All of things are easy to fix and if you follow the above advice, you have no problems attracting Asian women. Amazing, isn't it?
So what did I learn about Asian women? It seems there are a lot of wackos on the hunt, hoping to find a non-speaking subservient sex-slave who doesn't mind body odor and nostril hair. NICE!
I think I found my new hobby: hunting for more really bad "friendly dating-advice" articles. (It's an easy kill!) Anyone else want to join me in the game? (We can go both-ways in the dating circle!)

Ah... another gentle soul...

I think I just earned a drink!
What's THIS... a KEEPER?
Dating advice for shy guys
By Tim and Michael Burke
As a shy guy, you’ve probably heard more than an earful of advice on how to bust out of your timid shell and engage women in witty repartee. Sure, these gregarious mentors may mean well, but they often forget that it’s not easy to change who you are. Think of it in basketball terms. If your team lacks height, you don’t repeatedly try to go inside. No, you use your speed, passing and outside shooting to beat the competition. Same goes with dating: Play up your strengths, and you’ll improve your odds of romantic success. Here’s how to do just that.
Be eye-catchingly honest
Remember George Costanza’s approach in Seinfeld: “My name is George. I’m unemployed and live with my parents.” [Seinfeld's Opposite episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjsThJQQJxw] Hey, it worked for him. So why not try being straight up with women? Tell them you’re not much of a player. David Wells, 31, confirms, “When I was younger, I made the mistake of thinking I had to act suave,” he says. But since then, he’s upfront about the fact that he’s shy. “A lot of women think it’s charming!” he says.
Ask for help
Damsels in distress have been doing this for years; there’s no reason guys can’t take advantage of women’s desire to swoop in and save the day, too. Just be sure to pick a topic on which women will feel they can offer some assistance. You’ll rarely go wrong seeking style advice (“Excuse me, but I need a woman’s opinion on this jacket. Is it a keeper, or should it never leave my closet again?”) or relationships (“Hey, my pal and I need a woman’s perspective on how long a guy should wait before calling after a date. What’s your opinion?”). Asking for advice will diffuse the pressure of it being a pickup.
Choose your venue wisely
It’s much easier to meet and talk to women in places where there’s something to talk about. That’s why shy guys may be better off skipping your typical bar or café and attending a place with conversation-worthy surroundings, like an art gallery or charity function. “Did you enter the silent auction?” “What do you think about that painting?” Your icebreakers are already built-in. Plus, you’re not some random guy. You’re “a guy at this event,” which will allay her defenses and work in your favor.
Just add a question mark
You’re starting to get to know this woman and suddenly you can’t think of what to say. Here’s an easy solution. Simply repeat the last notable thing she said and place a question mark after it. “Oh, you work as a female professional wrestler; what’s it like??” Bingo.
Bring your best wingman
There are guys who can help you meet women. And there are guys who will do the exact opposite. Go out to the bars or wherever with the former. If he’s married, that can be even better. Married guys are not competition, and they prove you have responsible friends.
Let others do your dirty work
Can’t bring yourself to move your feet in her direction, smile, and say hi? Enlist someone else to do the icebreaking honors for you. Ask a waiter, bartender, or your wingman pal to approach the woman to deliver a drink or a compliment like, “My friend thinks you’re cute. Care to join us?”
Utilize today’s technology to air your opinions
If talking face-to-face doesn’t show you at your best, go ahead and lean on all that technology has to offer. A thoughtful, well-crafted email can convince a woman that you have plenty to say even if you didn’t chatter non-stop in person. For bonus points, refer to something she mentioned during your last date by saying, “I’ve given more thought to the conversation we had about your sister, and something else came to mind that I thought might be useful…” Then let those typed words weave their magic.
Take an acting or improv class ok, this one is strange... because real inner comfort and confidence is earned, not taught.... but if Acting School and role-play is for you, hey, who am I to judge? I just know after a "perfect performance", that curtain will eventually go down. I think audience acceptance and personal approval are often two different things....
First encounters are very similar to auditions. She plays her role. You play yours. And the more comfortable and capable you are, the better you’ll be during this encounter. As Alex Fendrich, an actor at Chicago’s Second City, puts it: “Improv helps you get used to making an idiot of yourself.” Perfect for dating. News Flash: when it comes to love and dating, we're ALL idiots!
Listen
What a novel concept this is: Instead of focusing on “What am I going to say next?” or “How am I going to make her laugh?” Just pay attention to what she’s talking about, and chances are good that you’ll come up with a relevant response.
Seek out the yin to your yang
If you’re not much of a talker, someone who yaks up a storm may well love spending time with you. You know the old “opposites attract” adage. And how Jerry Maguire professed, “You complete me.” Be her best audience ever, and trust us, she’ll keep coming back for more.
