I'm actually greatly impressed with TS's set standards for what she wants in her partner. It addressed an issue which will only detriment the female population, that is sometimes men just don't respect women!
Some men (I'm not saying all) treat women only as sex objects and children-making machines, paying no regards to her feelings and values as a person. And the funny thing is, sometimes why men continue to behave this way is because there are women who allow men to walk all over them as sex objects.
If only women have greater self-respect for themselves, setting higher standards for their partners (means wanting a man who will appreciate her as a person, not just a sex and baby-making machine for the husband), probably this situation may improve.
Call me a feminist, if that irritates you, being a feminist is not a bad thing. I do expect criticisms to my comments coming from a world full of sexists. Maybe you are that 4 out of 10 men which TS quoted as "intimidated by women with career success", or a woman who needs to have more self-respect.
Exactly my thoughts! Strongly agree with you. Especially on the part on how some girls give sex so easily, so willing to give their bodies up for a rich man, because she needs him as an ATM machine.

Found the best answer.
I often heard gals say, "those guy dont match with me", i would like to get the answer from them "Are u qualify to be with those guys and reason?". From TS statement i oni see she wanting somebody who is success in career, treat and respect woman as human, no-sex-object thinking and so on, as long as it treat the girl almost to perfect. Well, guys not born for gals, guys success or not, understand woman needs or not or bla bla bla, also not related to be a 'good guy' o not. Again, what if u found out that there is nothing imperfect in him? If he career is not very successful? If he not very understand in woman? If he is a normal man that need sex? Girl, no one in this world is perfect, we are human, we imperfect for a reason. If u looking for perfect loving and rich guys like those taiwan drama one, just watch all the taiwan drama over and over again in ur room and dont go look for for guys, cause u not treating them as human, u just trying force someone who is good to be with u and satisfy ur desire.

I don't think those requirements are high, it's not wrong to demand provided the requirements are reachable. I'm not looking for perfection (as you quoted), but one who treats and respects girls as human. No I'm not materialistic, I'm not one of those girls who trade sex for money. I look down on girls who do this, there's no excuse and they simply stand on the same line as prostitutes. I'm fully capable in providing for my own financial needs, and again that becomes a problem because some guys cannot stand having their girls earning more than him or being more successful than him. Male ego at work perhaps?
As I'm typing here, I'm also not saying that girls can just sit down and shake legs. Girls too should develop themselves as someone worthy of being a good man's wife.

Your friendster/facebook first please. Then only we see if your needs are justified.
I don't think that's necessary. I know what my looks are capable of, and it's none of your business. While I'm fully aware of the "buaya culture" in LYN forums, I refuse to just be viewed as a "fappable" object.
