Women want suffrage, equal rights and equal opportunity, but are
somehow less vehement about wanting equal responsibility.
Since the opposite has been posed here, I think it's fair to
pose the flipside question: is the Singapore woman
romantic?
IN DEFENCE OF the Singapore woman, she isn't alone in thinking
that Valentine's Day is something special.
The Girlfriend is a foreigner, and she got mightily upset with
me for planning a three-day bike ride over the upcoming weekend
(without consulting her), which meant I would be missing
Valentine's Day with her.
Then again, she didn't think I was being unromantic - just
thoughtless.
To her credit, she eventually calmed down, and didn't do what I
thought she was going to do to me, which was this:
Since I've grown rather attached to my head, you can bet that
won't be happening again.
tsk.This fellow is cruel and trying too hard to be an
intellectual.
This is not about men being taken for suckers, equal rights and
people being surface about romance.
Women feel good about receiving flowers and gifts on Valentines
day. So why let his girl feel like the unfortunate odd one out
whose other half is too stingy and skeptical to dish out the $ and
effort? Even if it's in the eyes of passersby, her friends and
colleagues?
It's not about him. It's about making the woman he loves happy.
He is so narcissistic.
