1. Must be handsome like Wang Lee Hom, Lee Min Ho, Jerry Yan etc.
2. Able to cook like Jamie Oliver
3. Tall
4. Older than them
5. Stable financial income (Stable as in earnings at least more than 3K per month)
6. Drives a car
7. Great personality (Makes them laugh, sensitive yet manly)
I guess there are more, but these are some of the more commonly traits that most Singaporean girls want. Such men do exist but they are rare. That's why as they always lament: "Good men are hard to find, either they are married, dead or turned gay."
You can't totally blame them for having such impossible dreams. Blame it on romance novels written by feminist writers who refuse to accept the true reality. Blame it on the improving lifestyle and society we have now. In today's world, lifestyle is improving as more people get educated. More women today are well educated holding degrees and higher. Expectations will rise with higher education. There is no denying it. People will expect to marry another person with equal or higher qualifications, never lower. Cause we will never lower our standards.
In Singapore, we are taught to be pragmatic. Living in a capitalist country, the only thing that talks is money. Truthfully, without enough money, you cannot survive in Singapore. You have to pay for housing, expenses, etc. It is not cheap staying in Singapore, though it is still cheaper than Tokyo.....
I find that Singaporean men are at the short end of the stick. We serve the nation, we get into university, we graduate, by that time we will be about 25-26 years old. Being a degree holder doesn't guarantee a good job. I've seen some of my friends who have been working a few years but it's not enough to afford a house yet. So we go on to Masters - 2 more years, Phd - fastest 3 years. So if we manage to zip through to a Phd, we will be 30 years old. Congrats, you won't get enough time to earn enough for your retirement. That's why Singaporeans work till they die. Amazingly, our GDP is one of the highest in the world. Cause we have also the super rich living here (Girls take note). Hence the average Singaporean men are undesirable to woman here. I think woman have qualms about Singaporean men here. Some of them are:
1. MCP
2. Bad dress sense (Actually most Singaporeans have bad dress sense cause of the weather)
3. Not gentlemen enough (Cause you don't give us the chance?)
4. They always talk about army
5. BORING (This is the No.1 complain)
So we come to this question, how fantastic Singaporean women are? A quick search on the internet gave some results:
1. Singaporean girls have fantastic fashion sense
2. Singaporean girls have a good sense of humour
3. Singaporean girls are more open about their sexuality
4. Singaporean girls are capable of forming their own opinion
5. Singaporean girls know how to party
6. Singaporean girls are health conscious
7. Singaporean girls are more financially independent
extracted from July 2009 issue of Her World Magazine
Are Singaporean women sexy?
Local men - 86% say yes
Expats - 73% say yes
Local men ranked the way girls dress and confidence as the two most appreciative attributes while expats rank based on body.
Top turn offs of Singaporean woman?
69% of locals say they hate the fake accents which some girls use
67% of expats say Singaporean woman do not speak good english
Are Singaporean woman good at flirting?
79% of locals say NO, finding women too shy, standoffs and not eloquent enough
73% of expats say YES! Saying they love how local woman touch and tease with them
From what it seems, Singapore women are great girls who are very desirable. But they play double standards, shunning local guys and going for expats. (That's where the term "Sarong Party Girls" came about)
Poor Singaporean guys. Are there any hope for them?
So I did a google search on "Singapore men" and all I got were Singapore gay massage and SPA.
Singapore men are either gay or stupid.OK, that's really demoralizing.
