""It makes it easier for the average guy. Women as those you have described are more picky,harder to impress.Most will not date unattractive,fat,older,poorer gentlemen(sorry about that,but it's true). They have more American taste when it comes to looks,and are quite happy at home. ""

Speak for yourself and your friends...many guys don't want an AW with an accent(although when I read about some relationships here it proves me wrong)...and the old, fat,  bald, anti-social, inept, stereotype is miniscule compared to the old days(except for the PI hunters).

And if you just read many recent posts concerning AW..plenty of guys are'nt really interested in High Maitenence Materialistic Women. But rather faithfulness, honesty, sincerity, etc. Personally I have no intention of living a real life TV Novela . In fact to go south for that seems like going around the block to cross the street to me.  

****
Though I for one believe if it comes too easy,it may not be such a prize. I would prefer to work hard to be that caliber of man who can attract an educated woman who is not desperate to leave a bad situation. ***

Believe me..many of the women are not desperate..quite the oppisite in fact..Have you been there and met any ?? I certianly don't think so spouting that line. But I have...looking for a good man and fullfillment of the dream of a happy loving life with a good man is the real story. And if you are implying being of caliber by having done an extensive personal inventory, defining strenghts and working on weakness's along with accumulating plenty of 'stuff' I stand tall in this world...yet I have or had no intentions of "selling my deal" to attract the type that are "shopping to buy the deal". Many guys that I know have a much different level of spirtuality than you might think...and seek genuine love...the type of emotions and spirtuality and maturity that trancends "stuff".

BTW...you want to buy a seldom used Rolex Daytona Helps with the Armani croud from TV Novelas.

My last post apparently did not go through.  But Houndog what gives you the impression I was talking about you or anyone you know?

 I have yet to hear you talk about the 'desperation factor or getting the youngest and prettiest girl you can. In fact you seem one of the few who was truly out there in search of love. I am talking about the guys who are out there wondering how desperate the women are?where to get the prettiest women,and how young is feasably attainable. These questions asked before they even get there or meet these women. As though the women are merchandise.Most of these guys did not do a check-up from the neck up,or down for that matter,they are just looking for an easy way to get a woman.  Most not thinking of charecter or personality but outer looks.But th best deal they can get for their bucks.

 I am not making this up, read the boards and you will see what I mean.

 As for traveling I have. Sine the age of 15 I have gone to CR,Venezuela,Brazil,PR. Also I have many latina and latina friends. I plan next on Mexico,and the Philippines or Vietnam.

Guys:  Bringing up Armani and trying to twist my words around to make it sound like I am after a high maintenance, elitist woman is rather weak. After thinking about this and remembering what my fiancee said about fashion in Mexico, I offer you this: my fiancee said that in Mexico you can buy clothes relly cheap, and there are alot of knockoff designer stuff floating around the puestos (small family owned shops), which explains why even our maid wore Tommy Hilfiger and the like. I remember dating a girl for a couple weeks who was from Sector Libertad, the poorer part of town. I picked her up at her campus one day at the Univ. of GDL, a free institution, meaning students with limited means go there. She was dressed in Zara (a higher end store in Mexico)clothes she purchased at the sale rack with a Citizen watch (might have been a knock off) and looked like a million bucks. In her apartment she shared with her Grandma was a new digital TV, DVD player and the like.
I am trying to relate the new Mexico to you, and I don't think the type of clothes girls wear have anything to do with this. Don't you want your girls to look great without spending a fortune, or do you want them to dress like the old Senoras, like my girlfriend had to do when she was a child. I personally love seeing the women dressed to the nines in Mexico! RG

Randy, No your post was right on the money.  I spend a great deal of time in Mexico and I live in Texas.  The Mexican encountered here is much different than the "Mexican" encountered down in Mexico.  I have some very dear friends in Mexico.  

Don't sweat the guy twisting your words around.  He does that to anyone who does not share his views.  Just ignore him as most people here do.

"The Mexican encountered here is much different than the "Mexican" encountered down in Mexico. "

If I fell in love with a "chola" or Indian looking woman, it wouldn't make any difference to me how she happened to look.  All that would matter to me would be that she loves me and I love her and that we are happy together.  There are beautiful women of every race and nationality.  In fact I think it would be fun to be married to an Indian woman who knew a lot of the the lore and knew how to make corn tortillas.  As far as what kind of clothes she wears; who cares? I have seen some girls (only 2, but hey? who's counting?) (while in high school) who weren't all that hot dressers and didn't look all that hot with their clothes on but they looked incredible naked. And who knows? Maybe the little "chola" would be incredible in bed!  If they don't nag me and and are sweet, compassionate, and loving then I am happy. - Art

Well that's actually humorous....I did'nt even reply to randy's post at all..let alone twist the words...the words were twisted when they were written. The guy was beaten down on LWL so bad I had to save him from being verbally bludgened to death for much the same types of elitist thinking. Juan was very kind to him .

Yea... don't mention it...I have a weakness for helping the defenseless .

Elitist??...let me think..is there a better word to descibe what I'm reading..?? Hmmmm....yea there are several , but I'll pass...

Perhaps you would like to give your definition of 'conservative' so we can compare it to a few others, some clarifications would be nice in the midst of so many vaguries.

Oh BTW...which mall is it guys can find a wife in or now that you've highlighted the beauty of mall shopping how do you recommend guys put any of your information to use ??

hey man,

i'm with you. keep making informative posts about your own personal experiences, how the ladies look, how they act, interact with gringos, and most importantly, where they all live!!!

any expansion of the range of countries discussed here is a big plus, rather than limiting it to just one or two.

thanks for the informative post!

also, do you think the desirable ladies are willing to leave mexico, and if so, what are the areas of the u.s. that interest them the most? (like southern california, new mexico, arizona, etc.)

can you describe jalisco? some people have been discussing retirement to colombia, but i don't know about that? maybe, but it seems like it would be difficult to stay forever outside of the safest and most stable areas. (i have not been to colombia yet). mexico seems like a safer bet!

thanks, bret

.. is that there's plenty of Spanish Language Radio, TV, newspapers, Mexican food (groceries, panderias, resturaunts, etc, etc.) In one city near me, Santa Ana, with several hundred thousand residents, 70% of the population speak Spanish at home. Even the Viet Namese at the Santa Ana swap meet speak better Spanish than English. While this is nice and convenient for native Spanish speakers, it has a downside. That is, you don't have to learn English. You can do your shopping, doctor, dining out, enroll our kids in school, take a drivers, test, etc, etc, without English. In fact I have people working for me who have been in the US for over 15 years and don't speak a word of English - and not just a few, either. It's common. I'm guessing other places, particularly along the Mexican border like Southern Texas has a similar situation, but I don't know if the state governments aren't quite so accomodating as California offering state income tax forms, drivers tests, unemployment insurance claim forms, etc. in Spanish.

"While this is nice and convenient for native Spanish speakers, it has a downside."

Considering we stole the land from Mexico in the first place I think the least we can do is let people speak any language they want to.  The English language is an evolving language anyway.  Who knows, in 500 years everyone in the U.S. may be speaking "Spanglish". - Art

"the least we can do"?  Sure we stole California from Mexico.  Texas, too.  Are you saying that's bad?  If California or Texas were still part of Mexico they would be in the same economic boat as the rest of that country and the Mexicans wouldn't want to live there either.  Our ancestors should be thanked for making something good out of them.  Besides, 90% of the countries on this planet took their land by force.  My $.02.

Just had to chime in on the Texas issue....BTW, the US stole Texas about as much as the Colonists stole the colonies from England.  Remember the Texas War of Independence? Ya know...Goliad, the Alamo, San Jacinto?  That was a war between the Republic of Texas and the Mexican Republic, with no help from the US Government. The only person we stole this land from was the Indians.
