[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]American women are some of the most entitled, uptight, insufferable, bratty women in the Western Hemisphere.

I'm almost 30, SWM, good job, told I'm classically attractive, attended a top liberal arts college and live in the District. For the most part I enjoy living in the area and dig the local quality of life and social opportunities. However, having dated both foreign (mostly European) and American ladies in their 20s and early 30s while I've lived here, I never cease to be amazed by the differences in maturity, expectations, manners, fashion sense and social graces between many American women (especially the white collar DC crowd) and someone from a similar background who grew up in say, France, Latin America or Eastern Europe. American society seems to have infantilized the under 35 millennial generation (i.e. Draconian 21 drinking age vs. 18 everywhere else, over the top political correctness and radical "feminism" evolving into a white male-hating ethos vs. empowering women). On a first date, women around here will inevitably start playing 20 questions about my job, credentials, even how much $$$ I make, before chatting about each other's hobbies and interests outside work. My male coworkers and friends in DC and NYC feel the same way and relish the opportunity to date a foreign nanny, grad student or expat since so many American women in their mid-twenties act like they're 19 and vice versa for many ladies I've met who grew up overseas. Most also seem less prudish about sex, not as materialistic or bossy and more appreciative of charm, wit, culture (new foods, art). Ditto for social graces...like not checking the iPhone every five minutes :)

Am I implying that all foreigners are more sophisticated than us boorish Americans or that some men in the U.S. aren't childish and immature? Nope. But lately it seems that masculinity is almost a dirty word and criticizing men for their shortcomings is far more PC and acceptable than vice versa. I appreciate and respect an independent assertive women but holy cow, our society needs a reality check.[/quote]

You need to find new people to date. Do you think maybe it's you who seems to be attracting a certain of American woman?[/quote]

+1. Stop trying to pick up women in the bar/club scene, especially at your age. You're going to find nothing but the immature women you describe. [/quote]
