“Hands Resist Him” by Bill Stoneham, The Haunted Ebay Painting

Personally, I believe this link is a must read for all men and women, even if it was written back in 1986. As our friends, coworkers, and collegues grow more mature by the year, many personal friends have been seeing a steady pattern appearing in the social makeup of our society (especially Asian-American society). The following article is somewhat proof of our various theories and ponderings.

Basically, the article below describes and attempts to explain the phenomenon why cream-of-the-crop women may never find a partner in life. It goes onto giving statistics of the likelyhood of getting married for different age demographics.

Too Late for Prince Charming?

“According to the report, white, college-educated women born in the mid-’50s who are still single at 30 have only a 20 percent chance of marrying. By the age of 35 the odds drop to 5 percent. Forty-year-olds are more likely to be killed by a terrorist: they have a minuscule 2.6 percent probability of tying the knot.”

As an Asian-American, I understand the pressures placed on children to succeed and become independant so that we can compete in the corporate world. Unfortunately, these types of lofty goals were placed on both boys and girls at a extremely young age (who here hasn’t had piano lessons starting from the age of 4?). Ultimately, the women ended up growing up like men; they feel and share the same responsibilities and goals, and expect the exact same returns from the opposite sex. Yes, in this I mean that men have been picking up and learning the roles of traditional mothers (such as cooking), whereas women were never taught these skills from the very beginning. While there’s nothing wrong with this (sure, I like experimenting with foods), it makes you wonder if couples will have the capability of raising a family while managing their careers.

In short, men worry about their careers. Women worry about their careers. When will there be time for a family?

I finally got a chance to upgrade my web services in the past weeks, and instead of only 300mb of space, I now have 1.6gigs of space. Mostly this means I don’t have to rely on Flickr or Imagestation for picture storage anymore. Don’t know if you noticed, but I’ve uploaded a few recent photo albums up at Photo Gallery. You can also access that page from the link on the right hand side.

Independence weekend was great since most of Lockheed got a 5 day weekend that started on our off-Friday that week. I have never eaten so much BBQ in my life in the past few weeks (except for maybe last year at David’s in LA), which is great, since it’s helping me pack on the pounds.

Just yesterday, my coworkers went out to Los Gatos to celebrate our promotions and hit up 180 Lounge and Mountain Charley’s. Now, I’ve been called many things… but what happened at Mount Charley’s just blew my mind. All night long, I was hanging out with my buddies, getting drinks, and of course, getting rejected by white girls (come on, no big surprise there). When the end of the night rolled by, Francis met a group of three asian girls and started chatting it up. As soon as he introduces them to me, one of the chicks starts yelling out to me: “YOU’RE A SELL-OUT!”

wtf.

What? Just because I’m at a predominately white bar in Los Gatos, that makes me a sell-out? I didn’t even do anything, but according to the three asian girls, I danced and talked to not only white girls, but latino chicks as well! Man, I like their version of my night better than my own version, it actually made me sound cool! This continued on for a good while in the club AND outside the club. So WTF ‘MATE? I can’t go to asian bars without being called sterotypical, and I can’t go to white bars without being called a sell-out?

No love for Jay.
