I give up

Heh, silly westerners.. Hey wait, i'm a westerner! Heh, don't even start me on our pseudo democracy that we're all so proud of. What is that Marry Poppins song? The one with the lyrics: A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down. Anyway, we're given just enough freedom (sugar) to makes us believe we're free so the working class doesn't challenge the inequity and insanity of this fanatical version of capitalism we've all bought into. What better way to control people to have them believe that they're free? Insidiously brilliant really.

Oh wait, this is about Bionca not my gripe with neoliberalism.. I can't imagine how awful dating must be for you. Even things I would take for granted like safety. That being said, it is not easy dating Australian women. Their dating shopping lists generally are so big they come in 3 volumes sets, and that is just the prerequisites, not the "would be nice" wish list.. Then all the pressure is on you to be funny, interesting and entertaining. No pressure! The fact I've only ever been on 1 second date says a lot about my experience with dating..

I think you're right though, hankhavelock. I think the west has a lot to learn from the rest of the world. But we're too arrogant to listen

Nah, my man... some of us are not afraid to listen and to bask in the communities we're suddenly a part of :-) Anyways, you're a good old Aussie (as I understand it), and I'm a bloody Dane... let's hook up here in Jkt and go charm the dames ;-) This is your region, mano!

But I dig all your hang ups on neoconservatism and the inherent fascism that is within that ungodly way of thinking and doing. Unfortunately they may come into power once again if the liberal Americans don't pull their act totally together.

And untill that happens Bionca and friends will continue to have a nasty time out on the town... because this is not about the horrors of dating on a personal level only... this is about backwards societies pointing fingers at the weirdos. And in the morale of George Bush and his holy wife and frontrunners every one here is an insaniac who deserves ridicule and stoning...

They'd make such good muslims... in the bad way that is...

Peace!
