Men Are from Mars, Sporean Women are from Jupiter?
Now I really think Im overcompensating on my blogposts. But what the hell.
Today I wanna bleep about:
What's with Sporean men nowadays talking about Sporean girls being not good enough and too demanding for them?! They'll rather go for foreign brides?! Sporean girls are too materialistic. They want too many things.....???
NOT TRUE!
How sexist! And so in defence to this particular remark, I've had the honoured opportunity to throw this question back at said 'Sporean man'
Me," What makes you think the problem lies with the females? Have you thought that maybe it is the men who couldn't catch up?
Heh heh heh...
'Said Sporean man' was stumped. He admitted maybe. So MAYBE he is not so sexist after all.
(Im sorry XXX!! You know who you are! Im not targeting enemic arrows at you. But if you happen to read this, Well You read it!! hhahahahah)
So right here Im not going to try to take sides, but choosing to tackle this interesting issue as a Sporean female.
Though I count myself lucky because when desperate measures are needed, I can pass myself off as some foreigner, considering I get lots of comments from people saying I look like various nationalities..... haha!!!!!!
*Waves! Im not materialistic!
So! What is it that Sporean men are looking for really? For them to be marrying foreign brides and claiming that Sporean women are 'Off'.
A Great roll in the sack?
Not mind staying in with parents after marriage because housing is too expensive?
Expecting women to work and do household chores and have babies allatthesametime?!
Wash hubbie's feet and bring slippers?
Not go on romantic dates anymore because "Im just too tired from work,says hubby"?
Expecting us to still have a whistle worthy type figure and tight skin after bearing 4 children?
Screaming at the kids while hubby sleeps on with drool coming out of mouth?
Expecting us to be understanding while he goes have fun with boys on 'Boy's night Out'?
OH my god. I get cold feet as I come up with more shit.
So my point is:
Sporean females have evolved into choosing not to take in nonsense-Ssss mentioned above. Times have changed.
So they demand ('Request' if this makes you happier :D) a fair share of contribution from hubby because a relationship/marriage is a two way traffic. What about us having to put up with men's fatal weaknesses since the ICE age then HUH?
If we have to put up with such nonsense, naturally we want monetary or material benefits to compensate us for better well being of our mind, body and soul. Technically speaking.
I would surely call this a: Cause and Effect Phenomenon.
Going for foreign less developed females just because you are afraid or JUST cannot fulfill is nothing wrong. BUT Dont just stereotype us without self reflecting on your flaws first. No one's perfect. That's what communication is for!
GrrrRRrRRRr......
***Footnote: Let's cut some slack to those guys who have really met truly incorrigible materialistic girls who have got their priorities all wrong.
And also! To give some credit to those mature guys who have got their priorities all right! :)
I've said my piece.
Peace out,

Women should be Happy & Healthy!
I thought I should share with you all interesting tips on how to stay healthy that I got from an e-newsletter!
- http://www.mydailymoment.com
10 nutrients women need
I think it is really important considering we tend to have to multi task a lot; taking care of our family and doing household chores and on top of that: WORK
NOT FORGETTING
We DO explode because shit happens, either caused by hubby/boyfriends (face it, this happens often to the majority. Congrats to the minority though.... lol)
Children driving you nuts, and OF course (who else????) YOUR boss. Maybe mother-in-laws even... zzzZZZ
WEll well WELL....................
OOOooooOOOoooooooHHHHhhhhhh
Women are indeed noble!
And so, in order to continue to uphold the best interests of all things we hold dear, we must keep our wonderful brains clear and working in good order to deal with all things 'chaotic' in this highly urbanised society!!
Nutrient number 1:
Folic acid or folate
This a type of B vitamin, which creates new cells and good DNA.
I guess you would have noticed the reason why advertisements always emphasize the goodness of folic acid in milk powder for pregnant ladies.. For healthy babies!
Folate decreases the level of an amino acid that has been linked to stroke, heart attack and dementia.
Folate can stabilize mood swings associated with menopause and perimenopause.
Found in foods like: nuts, legumes, spinach, dark leafy greens, enriched breads, pastas and grains, and is also usually in multivitamins.
I take vitamin B complex supplements!
Nutrient number 2:
Calcium
Calcium provides the building blocks for bones and teeth, and studies suggest it helps prevent breast cancer and reduces the severity of premenstrual syndrome.
PMS can affect some females badly. For me I drink Anlene milk powder for my daily calcium intake. :)
Found in foods: milk, cheese, ice cream, almonds, broccoli
For younger women, 1000mg. For post-menopausal women, 1,200 milligrams per day is required to prevent osteoporosis associated with aging.
Nutrient number 3
Iron
Iron is important for oxygen to get to cells. Women often lose a lot fo iron during menstration. When our iron level is low, we will tire easily.
Iron rich foods: beef, pork, poultry and fish, which all contain heme iron (easily absorbed)
vegetable iron: non-heme iron and include beans and dark greens (not easily absorbed and best to take with vitamin C)
Nutrient number 4
Omega-3 Acids
These are fats that our body cannot synthesize.
They can reduce stroke risk for women by more than half, and they also reduce blood triglycerides, lower blood pressure and increase levels of healthy HDL-cholesterol.
Omega-3s can also reduce inflammation linked with cardiovascular disease and arthritis.
Found in foods: salmon, anchovies
Nutrient number 5
Vitamin D
This is easy! Just go under the sun! A bit of sun does indeed do us good.
Vitamin D works to help in calcium absorption, reducing risk of osteoporosis
Nutrient number 6
Magnesium
Responsible for metabolism, maintaining a healthy heart and blood pressure.
People with kidney failure should not be taking magnesium supplements.
Found in foods: vegetables, seafood, meats, nuts, dairy products
Nutrient number 7
Vitamin C
Helps to repair cell damage caused by free radicals. (free radicals are 'monster' cells in our body that does us no good. - in layman's terms)
It's good for the production of collagen for healthy skin, gums, teeth, blood vessels, ligaments and bones.
Besides this, it seems like Vitamin C can help to prevent a lot of ailments! So, just be good and take our daily required dosage (90mg) of C to keep the doctor away!!
Nutrient number 8
Selenium
An antioxidant to prevent damage to DNA.
NOTE: it helps to maintain healthy skin, hair, eyes and liver.
Found in foods: seafood, meats
Nutrient number 9
Vitamin E
Antioxidant. Slows down aging process!
Found in foods: nuts, seeds, avocados and vegetable oils like olive, sunflower, safflower and canola.
Nutrient number 10
Potassium
Potassium increases bone density and helps prevent osteoporosis.
It also reduces salt sensitivity, lowers blood pressure and reduces the risk of kidney stones.
Found in foods: bananas, baked potatoes, prune juice, oranges
Doses of more than 18 grams can be toxic, especially for individuals with unhealthy kidney function
So now we know what are the essentials to a healthy body. Start maintaining now!
