Men...they play with our emotions, insensitive and can't even take obvious hints...
Well, here's something (hopefully) to shed some light into their minds.
On 5th Dec, Ngee Ann Poly's School of Business & Accountancy (my Alma Mater) presented the results of a survey where about 800 Singaporean men aged 25-59 were interviewed.
Interesting facts:
- 34% of the men had no reservations about marrying a woman who was better educated, earned more, or came from a wealthier family.
(But if the woman was taller than them, this dropped to 22%) - 6 in 10 men said it's up to them to make the first move, as is footing the bill.
Some double standards (men!!):
- Half the men would not marry a woman who smoked
(Yet 28% of the men surveyed were regular smokers...) - 12% of men found it "forgivable" if a husband has an affair
(compared to only 8% who were willing to forgive a wife who strays) - 21% said they would not marry someone who is not a virgin
(but 31% said they were "OK" with pre-marital sex)
Bottomline:
Looking at the results of the survey,
if we are Taller than the men, better educated than the men, smokes and not a virgin anymore...we are screwed gals...
So unfair! Hope they do a survey on women and then it'll be pay back time baby... *evil evil*
