And is the Philippines included because it's a great place to become a bride to a fat, ugly old Westerner with lots of money?

I don't see why the UK isn't in the top ten.

After all, in this country, we know how to treat a bit of cunt with respect.

Philippines, Ireland or Nicaragua: great to be a woman, unless you need an abortion.

:lol: Sweet.


No surprise to me that SK scores pretty low. Mostly because of the fact that women are expected to stop working after they get married, or at least after they get preggers. That means they're not considered to be a part of the company for the long term and are passed up for promotions and raises. I has been getting better here and there, though.

Odd considering earlier this week they were reporting Sweden and especially Denmark have incredibly high statistics for rape and violence against women in comparison to the rest of Europe.

So what about the menz? Oh yeah I forgot we're just meant to shut up and listen.

Yeah, but in fairness, those stats are from before Assange was confined to the embassy.

Rape means a different thing in Sweden (and presumably Denmark) than it does in the rest of the world.

In Scandinavia, they have 40 words for "no".

Yeh, but that's because sending someone a letter is sexual assault in Sweden, and shaking hands is technically rape.

Will these violent men never learn?

The women I hit on seem to do quite well with just the one. :sigh:
