"A Hospital is no place to be sick." - Samuel Goldwyn

Hilarious article from the ST (which, Mr Wet informs me, currently has a promotion where their website is 100% free); it doesn't tell us anything new (men want pretty, submissive girls and women want rich men) but it's funny anyway:


What they want in a partner

"The Sunday Times spoke to 10 dating agencies about the qualities that men and women look for in their other halves and, boy, Singaporeans sure are fussy.

AGE

HE: Men want women aged between 25 and 32.

Reason? Most are concerned about having children.

SHE: Women prefer older males. Some do not mind dating those who are two to three years younger.

LOOKS

HE: Men go for those who are slim and have big eyes, long hair, long legs and big breasts - but who are not bimbos. Celebrities like Jolin Tsai, Felicia Chin and Fiona Xie are benchmarks.

SHE:Women prefer men who are taller than them, are not balding, dress well and have pleasant faces.

CHARACTER

HE: She should be gentle, demure and sometimes submissive. She should also be 'well-behaved'. Smoking and tattoos are taboo.

SHE: He must be confident, humorous, family-oriented and able to look after a family. He must also be easy to talk to.

CAREER/FINANCES

HE: She can be successful but not more so than him. For example, she must not have a higher degree or salary. Some want women with careers linked to good looks, like air stewardesses.

SHE: He must have a stable job and earn at least $50,000 a year. Some want men with glamour jobs like pilots."


What can we conclude?

Singaporean men and Singaporean women deserve each other.

Also, ironically, there are 9 search results on Google for this article - and the ST website is at the bottom. But then again, if you search for an Own Time Own Target play review, I'm way below much less relevant sites in the search results ranking. So go figure.
