Not be horny

Fail.

Haha.. actually, I think the list of requirements suits the “average” classic western wife than what you’d think embodies a modern Chinese wife…

[Ray]

That article just doubled my useful-Chinese vocab…

Quote:

The criteria of a budget husband are as follows:

Between 5’8″ and 5’11”

Weighs between roughly 145-190 pounds

Normal haircut

Damnit. I’m 6ft4, close to 210lbs and don’t have hair. 0/3

At least the budget husband can be horny…

[Ray]

Vincent, don’t feel bad, buddy. I was once told a modern Chinese girl demands the ABC: Apartment. Baby. Car.

Needless to say, I am 0 for 3….(bottom shelf husband!)

You are not alone Ray 🙂 Welcome to the club.

“They will loyally stay at home and take care of the house; they will not go out to bars or have extramarital affairs. ” – and they call it a man… And i have no idea how to cook either 😀

[Merior]

“Patient, loving, keen to advance forward, modest, earnest, magnanimous, absolutely devoted and loyal, ready to shoulder responsibility”

I interpret that as…. ‘Be prepared to be nagged to death if you haven’t had a promotion for 6 months, don’t even think of looking at a pert little bottom for artistic reasons and must take the blame for everything regardless.’

I interpret that as….

Handbag carrying wet rag.

Ability to deal with nagging has always been my achilles heel… (“Woman, there’s the door. Handle turns to the left”) ha ha
