Arab men (Lebanese/Jordanian) : Lebanese/Jordanian women and Asian women in their early 20s

American men (white) in their 30s/40s/50s/60s (married/separated/divorced/cheats) : All kinds of women irrespective of race but the Asian women in their early 20s seem to get preference. Although I did come across a Polish veterinarian who managed to reel in an American professional quite easily. So the Asian women had better watch out.

Thus starts the age old debate of why Western men prefer Asian women. It's quite sad really as I'm sure there are some great men and women in Dubai who have a horrible chance of meeting people because of the low standards that the majority of the people out here set.
Wow, comprehensive market study..., now you know how you can sell yourself better..., despite if you havenīt got what the market wantīs!

HAHA I LMAO reading some of the comments posted in here.

Don't let the numbers intimidate you.

Listen, if you are looking for that special soul and you know move to the next level that kindah thing, yeah there are women like that here available. You will be impressed but I was in a different forum before and there I ve seen several women complaining about the lack of quality men meaning they could not find reasonable men to date. Go figure what they think a good man is.....

There are also the shallow types. Don;t worry about those you will spot them quite fast.

There is a group of woman, though in this country, that are more down to earth and settled. I am talking about the massive amount of teachers that are landing here.

That sounds a bit naive. Just because they are teachers, doesn't mean they're more down to earth and settled. It isn't always easy to spot the shallow women just like it isn't always easy to spot the players.

Some of the teachers here seem hungover most of the time and can't even form proper sentences.
