[QUOTE="Tiger Man, post: 1222477, member: 14216"] I agree with this line of thinking. I'm also an immigrant to the U.S. (or, I was, but that's another story). So, I completely understand the drive to consider women from the "ancestral home". And, in some cases, it can make a lot of sense. On the other hand, it is true that a small number of these women exist in places like the U.S. I look at it like a Venn Diagram. Some of the circles might be (as said) low/no sexual history, solid extended family, religious/philosophical/political values are pro-family, younger, not career driven, etc. As you go to places like the U.S., those circles get pulled further apart. Feweer and fewer women will fit the bill. But, the U.S. has a massive population. So, if you are talking about 3% of the population, that is still millions and millions of people. But then, as I am always going on about, you have to consider the domain. This might be the country or region or, even, an ethnic group. Whatever culture the girl is stewing in will be key. And, that is where you can run in to a set of problems that exist in the U.S., but will be minimized or absent in other places. The first is the most obvious and often mentioned - what happens if you bring the girl to the U.S.? Does she become "Americanized". No bueno. Apart from that, there is the consideration of what you are willing to give up or put up with for a girl. The best example I can think of is the religious girl. I know a number of almost 10s that are 23-28 and would love to get married. The catch: they are insanely religious. It is the most important thing in their lives. Full stop. That's it. If you want in, you will not only have to marry them, you will have to sign up for church/temple/whatever five days a week, and helping out all the time, for free. You have to sign up for no TV in the house. No normal internet usage. And, don't you dare get caught looking at porn. Most men don't want to go [i]that far[/i], even if the wife they get ticks all the boxes. The issue is that the larger culture in the U.S. makes women like this rather rare outside of certain religious communities. Such is not the case in other countries. There are many, many countries in the world in which "quality women" or "good girls" or whatever are a product of cultural control, not religious control. Women in these places can be more "normal" - as in, not super religious - while also ticking most if not all of the other boxes. This is why I supported OPs idea in my first post. At the very least, I think that seeing more quality women in another country can give you that taste for what is possible and what you should and shouldn't settle for. [/QUOTE]
