[QUOTE]Originally posted by **cat**: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by weirdkitty: [qb] [QUOTE]You actually find it interesting...? But as i said in the previous thread, if she were moving into a slum to live life with her poor english boyfriend, it would not be so 'interesting'...So then, you buy into the romanticising? [/QUOTE]Obviously, you find it extremely dull, which is why you are commenting on it :D [QUOTE]It affects me in every way, I have to listen to her self promoting drivel, why doesn't she go and help the homeless in her OWN country? Oh no, thats right, they are not so 'exotic' [/QUOTE]Or maybe because you can't really compare the homelessness in our country, to that abroad. Exactly how many children do you see dying of starvation in London’s streets? I never understood why people should fight for their country, before another’s. What makes it theirs? It is a mere slab of land you happen to be born on by mere chance, why should that make you care about it more than the next slab of land? And no, you don't have to listen to her. This is what you do... shhh, its top secret... you turn the page over and read the next news article, lol. Maybe on the next page it will be about a new panda in a zoo, would that be more to your liking? I bet you the press was more than happy to write up this story, she didn't need the chase them down. You can always read financial times if human-interest stories are too much for you. I'm not saying people who have "normal" lives are wrong, they just should not care if other people don't want that. I have heard some pretty weird and interesting ways of people meeting a falling in love… but let me guess, they are all wrong, because it wasn’t the “normal” meeting, down the pub, via a mate. [/qb][/QUOTE]Yes you know me so well, Pandas are my thing ;) See i'm confused, because this article really isn't about human welfare at all, one minute you say it is, the next you say its about finding 'true love'. I have already said, I would be more than happy to support someone who gives their time for a better cause, but the article was not written for that purspose, if anything, the good samaritain part was just a sideline. The focus was 'marrying a man, that lives in a small village in Africa' Why did they write it? 1. Because trash sells, or 'take a break' 'OK' 'your life' magazines would not sell more than 'New internationalist' 2. it makes heads turn for two reasons, sensible people say 'WTF?' and dreamy people say 'ahh how sweet' and those same people will be spending THEIR lives looking for that 'special' man, that 'might just be different' because he lives in outer mongolia... well he wont, it will be no more special than the boy next door COULD be...the fact he lives in a hot country, wears colourful clothes and has an accent will not stop him being a man.
