>She adds: "There is a significant lack of respect from men towards my skills, my values, and my vision."

Reading this makes me want every single one of these women to die.

What goes through the minds of these people?

>However, what she says made her "want to scream" was that she would see men openly reading pornographic comic books on underground trains
Audibly laughed.

Generally yes, obviously.

Why is it that I've never come across a decent blog post or article from an expat? It's always whiny nonsense with no level of cultural insight. Depressing that these people get to live abroad and you don't.

>>She adds that she has found it to be normal in job interviews in Switzerland for women to be asked about personal details of their lives, including their relationship status, and any plans to start a family.

Yea because workers love it when they hire a female and then she decides to have a baby and get 9 months off while still getting payed.

dumb bitch, sad she didn't got raped and murdered

>It's always whiny nonsense with no level of cultural insight.
Home is where the heart is. These people go places and are unhappy things are different from what they are accustomed to. What did they expect?

>move to a third world country
>they don't have first world philosophies

wow wtf

Japan and Switzerland aren't 3rd world.

I reckon they are yeah

I don't know. True cultural exchange is such a fascinating topic - to go to another country where people see things differently and grasp how their society works, and how they think. Instead, people only seem to care about fucking, or using surface-level observations to justify their political beliefs.

Why do these uppity first worlds come to third wolrd countries with high expectations? Pls stay in your """perfect""" countries and leave us the fuck alone. We don't want our cultures infested with your sjw mindset

I had no idea women's lives were so difficult

They are feminist slutwhores. Of course they have a hard time. Foreign women are always better than that trash.

Can't blame them.

The only ignorant person in this situation is her.

> moving to a new country without researching its culture an try to understand it first
Some people are fucking mental

40s Japanese women can't get husband/bf in western countries too.

it's not just SJWs it's cucksertitives coming to Colombia and Brazil and complaining about Bunda and too much sex-culture
"hurr durr i hate Carnival"
"WAHH The local women are whores except my local wife of course"
*refuses to learn spanish/Portuguese
*Whines about not getting American products for cheap
*Crys about gays

Old Asian women are flocking to Black american men

I've been here for a month and i have never heard any western guy complain about bunda or too much sex culture lmao

it's married men and single women

>Leave Angloland expecting equality
>Realize the rest of the world is a bit more traditional
Happens every time. Women in anglo countries have absolutely no idea how lucky they are

why don't they just FUCK OFF?

Because all sexpats are LOSERS

Kinda sad that he sees her as nothing more than a stereotype desu.

complaining about sex culture is for literal asexual low test cucks. Btw, where are you from?

I've never seen any one irl.

Well said user.

honestly, what the fuck did she expect?

>personal details of their lives, including their relationship status, and any plans to start a family.
I know you're not supposed to engage in this, but concerning smaller companies at the very least, can't people understand that they don't want to pay you for pregnancy leave the minute you're hired?

You could almost bankrupt yourself over that shit.

to be fare it's mostly Chinese but Koreans and Japanese too

This actually makes me mad, leave other countries alone and stay in the west if you want to live like the west

Islam is feminist

France and I love Colombia so far, I'm in Cartagena atm

>she found that neither Japanese men or male Western expats were interested in dating Western women

>Post-wall roastie rage

>be born a woman in a first world country
>complain about men being men in an effort to gain social capital from their "victimhood"

this meme needed to die years ago but people let is persist

>bongs pay the government to write feminist propaganda

All non-white countries, should make it as difficult as possible for white women expats. This includes sexual assault, like they do in India.

They are responsible for the destruction of the West by importing non-whites, and they should be repaid at every turn.

>However, what she says made her "want to scream" was that she would see men openly reading pornographic comic books on underground trains.

What's even wrong with this?

What emotion(s) are wrapped up in her desire to scream?

my sister unironically cancelled her trip to india because of that reputation, she ended up going to japan and hong kong

The fact she wasn't the centre of male attention and couldn't get what she wanted by whining about feminism like back home.

Here's a sampling of the mindset.

That's way better

>she often felt as if she had gone back in time to the 1950s.
oh

>she found that neither Japanese men or male Western expats were interested in dating Western women.
>Ms Goldman, now in her 40s
old shekike can't comprehend why men don't want to date aging feminist hags... shaking my head to be honest family

>these men wouldn't have been to nab a date back home if they'd been a calendar
What a judgmental cunt. Like I get where she's coming from, but when she drowns out her ideas in this drivel, it's hard for me not to think of her as fucking jealous.

>UK

i see random youtube expats in japan talk about/date jap guys often.

literally the only secret is to be good-looking and youthful, which is what 95% of guys want.

youtube.com/watch?v=QPiWu4Y2nCc

White women love interracial relationships when they benefit them, they chimp out at yellow fever with extreme jealousy. The Western woman has unparalleled entitlement.

This is what stopped me from being an expat, they all seem really ignorant and unhappy and have a horrible reputation.

PAY THE LICENSE

This is good, all women should go to the third world and see how women are actually oppressed for real in those countries.

Might give them a newfound respect for how they're treated in the west.

>White women love interracial relationship
They really don't.

i'm pretty sure she's in her 30s which is hard as fuck for women unless they retain their youthfulness.

> REEEEEE WHY WON'T THE WORLD ADAPT TO ME
The first rule of being abroad is that YOU should adapt to the local culture.

I see why western female complain about their men though. I will date with strong black men if I was surrounded by sissy whiny faggots like you.

brazilians are uncivilized amazon barbarian. Don't come to Japan. Brazilians in Japan already are criminals

Winston is based tho

They complain about those too, it's also a bit of catch-22 because masculinity can be a bit of a dirty word and gender roles etc but then they don't like 2

I hope this guy is taking the piss, that's kind of defeats the point of being Neo-Nazi

>Do female expats have a harder time living abroad than male expats?

>Is this a question anyone ever gave a fuck about?

>No!

>So next time, joins us as we forget our idiotic questions and just play indiana jones movies!

It's even lower in Europe... at least for whites

Satan knows
women are a meme

there's this French (or Quebecois maybe?) cartoonist who did a few good comics about working in various asian countries.

>Go to another country
>Get surprised that they have other cultural values and expect different things from women
>Complain about it like a little bitch

So much for tolerance and multiculturalism.

That was a satisfying read.

desu it's not only in Japan. Pretty much every non-western country is like this. Western guys outside of the western world are valued for their warmth and niceness, even with middle eastern or indian women.

Only in the western world is warmth and being nice taken for granted and a turn off.

This
Also as a man i also get asked those questions so go fuck yourself lol, the fucking SWITZERLAND is a backwards country now ? It's 1000 times less backwards than USA those people are fucking retarded, of course employers need to know this

>in non-western countries everyone assumes you're going to be an out-going romantic chad because you are a White Western person
>not outgoing or a chad

It's easy to be a chad when the women are receptive from the get go.

Yes. I see a foreign man and I assume, unless he's a nigger or a spic, that he's a kindly tourist taking in the best attractions of my country. I see a foreign woman and assume she's some dumb cunt that's lost her husband.

these sort of things make me have less sympathy and instead an increased dislike of them. they're upper middle-class 'expats' whose job prospects take them around the world and they still whine about muh sexism

the commies are right about 'liberal feminism'

Good post

So.. this mean christmas cake women can get a bf and not treat like trash?

hoooray,I'm going to Europe in next year.

>those levels of insecurity

>Reading Comic LO on the subway

Based!

That's weird to read, in high school most of my male asian friends had a thing for me

I remember a while ago someone posted an article written by a british woman about her trip to Spain. She complained the whole time about shops closing during siesta and how people there don't go out of their way to suck off every tourist they see. What is wrong with anglo women?

>Ashley moved from Toronto in Canada to the Saudi capital Riyadh
Tip top fucking kek

eternal anglo goes anywhere, thinks they own the place
what else is new?

Great. So the cunt left the west to go ruin other countries. Guarantee she's a kike. Hope the Slavs rape her to death.

>In regard to building a personal life in the Japanese capital, she found that neither Japanese men or male Western expats were interested in dating Western women.
>Ms Goldman, now in her 40s, says: "The few single Western women I know in Tokyo seemed to have resigned themselves to being single forever.
Wow, those Japs are neglect rapists!

What if men can fuck around without a care they should too.

t. virgin manbaby

you're probably sarcastic but I agree, and mostly they actually can. they're making more money than 95% of people out there with their overeducation, global job prospects and interconnectedness

restrictive cultural norms often don't even apply to well-off expats as much as to natives

this shit only makes other upper middle class white women and their beta cuck upper middle class orbiter nerds whine about how bad upper middle class white women have it

>However, what she says made her "want to scream" was that she would see men openly reading pornographic comic books on underground trains.

>3d girls are now actively jealous of 2d

great timeline

>go abroad
>"people have different cultures, REEEEEEE"
I want these people to die so badly

>cuckold philoshophies
Fixed for you.

Pampered womans by the cuckolds.

Anyone who naturalizes only talks to natives, really. The ones who write a lot to back home haven't really melted in yet and maybe never will. If I were to move somewhere I'd learn the language ASAP.

The more I see and hear from women in tech the more I realize they bitch about the slightest of things and most importantly imagine a lot of the shit. It's like a mental illness, a paranoia that the society supports. Like I doubt presentations in Switzerland had to be presented by a man unless they had ME customers.

FUCK THAT DYKE, people are getting stabbed in droves by favelados, getting their shit stolen left and right, you can't have a decent time on the streets and enjoy the public spaces because Brazil has more homicides a year than Syria has war victims.

And then this stuck up GRANNY comes to Brazil, FUCKING BRAZIL, to bitch about sexism? Is that really a priority issue? What does she know about the country and why doesn't she simply go away if that's a deal breaker? Hope she gets the next stab instead of an innocent and unretarded Brazilian passerby.

Gee, every other country isn't a copy of the west. WHO WOULD HAVE FUCKING THOUGHT.

It's so amazing sometimes, how detached people are.
