... in response to Question for the East European side of P..., posted by pablo on Aug 16, 2003Pablo, I do not believe ladies on the board would benefit us at all. We have sufficient male resources to answer all questions that may require a female perspective by getting it second hand from a married board members wife. FSU women have no real idea what we are going through, or what it takes to go there, find them and get them back here - nor do we want their perspective right now. We know enough of the cultural differences / how to treat them to get them back here to be our wives, if we find the right one, right now. If one of them got on the board, and they occasionally do, everything is skewed according to their perspective - which right now does not help us. A girl who is married to a man here only has her individual perspective - which I would rather have edited through her husband than have to deal with all the other bu@#sh%t that comes with the typical womans perspective. Having American women would be a total waste - since they think there are enough overweight, ugly things here for us. The American women are what is driving us to the FSU to start with. Better to let the males who have been there done that / male adventurer trip takers / almost married trip takers/ failed trip takers / trip taking experienced guys who for whatever reason never married their FSU gal(s) help us with their experience. I am sure others will disagree - but the women that periodically have come onto this board have never helped me. They have just reaffirmed what guys have already said. So, I'll meet them / deal with my individual cases over there, thanks.
