Did anyone watch the Dawn Porter: Extreme wife episode this week?

About the Russian 'mail order' brides?  How bizarre, can't say though that I never suspected that it was a load of bullshit designed to  squeeze a buck out of desperate, lonely (in some cases strange men) Found it very funny and revealing, look forward to the next episode.  Are you also enjoying the show?

Really?

What happened, were they all scammed?  Haha, thats sad!  Stereotypes arn't always accurate.  I know a couple guys who have met ladies whilst in Thailand, and bought them back to marry - and their relationships are stronger that some 'normal' ones I know.  Haha, poor guys!

Think Dawn does a great job

... on presenting. This Russian bride scam is wrong on so many levels :-(  I think "desperate" is an understatement Sas. KK xx

extreme

I mwas watching this on monday and was amazed at the lengths the men go to,

or in the case of one retatrd, don't go to.

 

I do find it amazing these men have problems with american women but its the same here in some sections of the populace.

 

A complete disregard for women among claims that women have changed and can't or won't look after these dickheads in the way they want to be looked after.

 

From my read of these guys they would be looking for someone with all the functionality of a fleshlight (pretend vagina) and the personality of a rock all wrapped up in a blow up doll that looks like Elle.

 

I don't think one of them had anything to offer a real woman except to increase the divorce rate.

 

One guy looked like a psycopath when propositioning the reporter. Woo scary.

I had a Russian niegbour..

This bloke lost his wife to heart disease.  About a year later he started dating a mail order lady from Kazakhstan (nearly Russia).  After a bundle of bureaucratic hoops and red tape, he managed to bring her back to Australia.  About 6 months later the ambulance came and took her away suffering from a depression based nervous breakdown.  It was not surprising as I heard her screaming at him a few times. 

Probably dating someone in the same country would be a better bet.  The grass on the other side of the fence may be weeds?

We did

It was bizzare and an eye-opener. Some of these guys were weird and creepy, only one or two guys seemed genuine.

 

Loving the show, but we don't understand why she calls herself "Extreme Wife" when she is unmarried or is she referring to the women in her show?

Too bloody right...

Most of these men were weird and creepy... that guy with the weird laugh who did not shower and used 'one dollar cologne' and didn't make any effort whatsoever in his presentation!!!  You'd think after spending thousands to go on the tour he'd lift his game!  And then the only normal seeming guy hands out his jellybeans?? with a religious note attached?!

And yes the really creepy guy who cracked onto Dawn and then had a breakdown in front of the Russian girl...  I suppose whats a girl to do on a Saturday night though when she can be paid to go out and eat canapes and quaff down champagne and then get treated to dinner...

 

I get that some of these marriages can turn out well blkcapricorn, but this was just all about money and (as disgusting, weird and desperate as some of these men seemed) nobody deserves to be fleeced!!!

Hey playful.

Thanks for putting me onto this.

 

  I think it does refer to the extreme lengths people will go to to find a wife.

Strange

I saw it and found it enlightening. I have always thought I was a dirty old perve but I got nothing on the strange weird sleazy men she interviewed. Made me think women are right to be anti men. By contrast the women seemed "normal"  .

Haven't seen the show

But I know one guy that married a Thai lady. He never let the poor girl finish a sentence (her English was limited), he treated her like she knew nothing (she was well educated in her chosen field) and asked lots of questions yet never listened to the answers (why should he? He knew always new best).  Just before we met them she had become so frustrated she had kicked him in the ribs. About a month later she ended up bashing him with a block of wood (I wanted to do that to him too). She is now back in Thailand and hopefully doing better with someone else.

whatever

I have a number of associates who have non Australian wives, ans many of them are working successful relationships.

 

One in Particular, in the goldfields is a golden hearted fella who unfortunately does not have the body shape to match.

He has an asian bride, who treats him like a king. He treats her and her son with excellence, and the relationship works well all over.

I am sure if he was portrayed on this show, some of you would go yukk, go do something about your body. or whatever.

 

I know others who have gotton Russian brides,a nd they too are working well:

Sure some aren't.. but.. well fck me.. locals dont do that bloody well either eh!

 

Of course.. what is the option?

Going to the hotel and getting cracked on by a half pissed local? and try you luck with that?

Getting on RHP?

RSVP?

Would they do anny better here/there?

 

If it sounds too good to be true.. it probably is :)

No Problemo

Quoting 'Saskia72'

It is a shame there are only four episodes

We are looking forward to when Dawn delves into the world of Geisha

Oh really?

Just four episodes... that's a shame, yes looking forward to that too, and I think the other one is polygamy, so that's it then.  Bummer, she could have looked iinto hooking up on sites such as RHP , and a separate episode on a more vanilla site, then arranged marriages, a whole lot of areas she could have expanded into...

I also caught this episode and it had me fascinated. The creepy dude who had a van and only a mattress in the back ha ha ha evil evil dirty laugh, God he made my skin crawl but there did seem to be the odd genunine fella looking for a lady.... sad sad to know these women take advantage of the old fools!!!

wives

I am partly with cavey on this I know people who have met and married through this buut I am also aware of "men" who visit places like thailand and are the most repulsive sorts of people to ever claim humanity.

As long as there are men like this its dificult to get women to stop looking at us like we are a different (lower) species.

Oh well....

Oh no mike...

No need to worry, some of these men I would not even categorise as in the human species, either with their attitudes,  attention to presentation and hygiene or their mindset when it comes to treating women right.

 

Most of us (women) just want a good bloke who we find attractive, who can love us, treat us with respect and of course get us off...  not rocket science really.  Yes, I do feel sorry for men sometimes, you do get a bad rap, but you know what, we really couldn't live without you... I couldn't imagine a world without men.  :(
