well i think the men feel powerless so they want some "power" to come and change it. but ofcourse the society has to change itself to end this dating nightmare.

alot of men dont want to date foreign women or do foreign online sites.

i have talked to foreign women online and they just CANT believe what i tell them about america dating weak friendships.
oh well.
