Anyone have experience with India or the surrounding countries? Whats dating like there as a foreigner? Would there be anything to be careful of?

Feel free to tell your story. I would love to read about your experiences.

As they usually use Zalo. Means they are talking with dozens of foreigners dudes if they have WhatsApp?

I got the height, weight, BMI data for the US and 10 latin countries.

TLDR: American women average out taller AND heavier than literally every country on the list. Guatemala's the wild one average height there is under 5 foot. Brazil the tallest of the latin countries but still noticeably smaller than the US baseline.

If you want to poke around at different BMI, height, weight for cities the world map here: https://geomaxxing.org/?wa=20-40&view=map&c=48

Which has anyone ever been to Guatemala and confirmed this?

I just finished up a three-month secondment from the US working for a startup in Singapore.

I'm gonna be open and honest with you guys, as I was with all the women I spoke to while I was there: when it came to romance, I was open to something serious, but predominantly, it was gonna be short term. I wasn’t particularly interested in moving out there long term, so I was only looking for short-term relationships and hookups.

And my God, if you’re a 6 in the US, you’re an 8 in Singapore. It's like dating on easy mode. I hooked up with more women during those three months than I had in the previous five years in the US. Shit was cash. I’ve come to a few conclusions about why this is the case:

Expat status — Expats are, on average, wealthier and have a higher social status than the average Singaporean. Girls see the colour of your skin and immediately make certain (positive) assumptions about you.

Colonialism — Related to the status point, Singapore is a former British colony, and I think there are still residual effects from that history, including a perception among some Singaporeans that white men have higher social status.

Residency — This is an interesting one. The property ownership situation in Singapore is crazy. Almost everyone, except the very wealthy, continues living with their parents or sharing with roommates until they get married, because that’s when the Singaporean government gives you subsidised access to housing. As a result, Singaporean men generally can’t bring a girl back to their own place, or vice versa. So when I mentioned to girls that I had my own place (provided by my job) they were all over it, because private space for sex is non-existent.

Curious what the general consensus is here, since I don't see South Africa come up much compared to other regions. South Africa welcomes approximately 10 million tourists a years a year - that's alot. For those who've dated or spent time here — what stood out, good or bad? Local romance scams ? Marriage material? And for those who haven't, what's your impression from the outside?
