It guess it could be propaganda, what isn't??????? wrote:"Every time a show like this starts in Germany they purposefully take guys who are absolute weirdos to show that no normal man would ever go overseas to find a girl. It is propaganda at its best."
The German government pulls this shaming crap like this to discourage men, too? On the bright side though, you are closer to Russia or Eastern European countries if you wanted to go there.
All these Western countries (Japan too) have done some feature on their native men going to other parts of the world to find women and wouldn't you find that a bit fascinating?
What is almost never considered is why men are doing this? The question is almost never asked. I think that is not to insult the likely female viewers of the show. Shows like this interest women so they can see if they should be concerned or not. They are largely unconcerned because even if production crews seem to pick "weirdos", most companies don't screen the clients or the women very much.
This leads all sort of strange results.
But its mostly the type of men you think would go on these things and its not a stereotype. Its men for one reason or another that struggles in our dating economy; when money is being exchanged its time to call it what it is.
In our economy (Western Culture) men over 45 are considered "washed up" and the only women that REALLY want you are the same washed up but much older women (late 40's, early 50's). If you are under 50, never been married and have no children, what are you suppose to do if women even at the end of their ability to procreate don't want anything to do with you?
I mean a dentist can still get woman in her 30's even if he's 60! There is such a couple on Facebook that I know of. As I said WOMEN LIKE MONEY, some more and some less than others, but overall they want no economic problems and they figure the richer a man is, the less economic issues come up. Oh ho, its not the same type of problems of not having enough, there are other issues created by wealth that you won't know about until you're wealthy.
Then there is socially awkward, yadda, yadda, yadda. These guys have endured a dating life to say the least that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy; maybe you would?
They rarity is the guy who seemingly has no issues but yet can't seem to find the right woman.
These are the type of men that consider going overseas among the other choices of last resort.
I've always wondered what would have happen if I had spent what I did on my vacation to Europe and gave it to AFA instead? I have found AFA's business model a bit problematic since 2005 but as I discovered Mark Davis and others who have been through the AFA process; it I could have saved myself alot of trouble, had the life I wanted with an attractive woman and I doubt I would be posting on HA enduring the ridiculous negativity showcased here.
The truth is, I am only debating a handful of the active posters here, so maybe I shouldn't be concerned with what they say and just ignore it.
Anyway, you get the men you get on shows like this because men who aren't struggling in the dating economy have no need to do this...
