who would like to be my child(ren)'s mother? (with some details added)

People suffer obesity becaue they are addicted to eating, rather than because they have no food.

disagree. Do you know why poor diet is mostly associated with lower socio-economic families? Do you know why sushi is more expensive than take aways? My previous point was that unhealthy foods tend to be cheaper. Have you noticed that in a supermarket fruits and vegetables are comparably more expensive than meat? What would be the choice of a family going through financial harships if healthy grain bread was $3 per loaf while normal bread with less carbohydrates were $5 per 3 loafs.

As I metioned genes play an important role in obesity. Why do you think there are a significantly higher persentage of maori and islanders population having diabetes, ischaemic heart disease and stroke every year than the rest of the population? Their life expectancy are on an average 10 years lower than those of Pakeha. Putting indigenous population aside, there are difference for example in infant mortality rate between Pakeha and Asian population. Why would that be? Thats due to genetic reasons. There is still so much more to explore, but I can tell you that obesity is not just about some dumb kid can't stop eating humburgers.

哈哈, 你真是太可爱了. 我知道饮食习惯和人的文化背景和收入有联系.

但是这不代表着这些因素是导致他们肥胖的真正原因.

我们不需要讨论这个. 我也不相信在新西兰的中国女孩是因为买不起蔬菜而肥胖.

我只是希望自己的妻子爱惜自己的身体, 不暴饮暴食, 多吃健康食品而已.

隐君子

是的,基因是一个原因, 我也看过这方面的调查. 我希望自己孩子的基因好一点, 健康一点, 仅此而已.谢谢

I just found the topic fascinating thats all. Thanks again for the discussion and I wish you a good life.

隐君子

You are welcome. I am interested in many subjects, including physiology, psychology, sociology, anthropology, law and business. I know your specialisation is nursing, which is fascinating too.

隐君子

most, if not all of them?   

I am glad to see the day when girls are fully independent, rather than preoccupied with a windfall gain in a marriage.

呵呵，楼主还是不要小看女人啦。I'm sure you might be able to find one that's at least as intelligent as you, if not more. and trust me, some women are very independent these days。

看了您一些帖子，觉得好像一阵清风！我想好多人肯定也是这么想的。I have absolute faith that you'll be very successful one day. 很崇拜，很欣慰，看到一个这样determined的人，一直都坚持做自己！我也希望以后自己是这样的一个人：forever free, instead of getting institutionalised and getting bogged down with life's many demands (see Shawshank for reference)

很有兴趣认识您。您要是有缘看到我的回复就请给我留言吧。跟您做个朋友也是好的。

one question though: I don't mean to be rude, but you seem to have no problem meeting someone who's much much younger than youself, e.g. a 20 YO. but don't you think you might be a little too old for her? don't you think there might be an age gap between you guys? how do you expect to communicate?

隐君子

no way, daniel.

I appreciate maturity.    communition holds the key to a successful marriage.  i don't think i am able to communicate with a young girl, or vice versa.

how do we define a soul mate?

a soul mate is the one who can read your mind before you speak it.

my qq is 2616 0562.   hardly see anybody like shawshank..  i have some recommendations.  dead poets society,  12 angry men.

1q2a

communication and commitment!

a soul mate is that matching piece of jigsaw puzzle. once matched, one's also able to shape the other.

oh, a LOT of people appreciate shawshank. one of the greatest movies ever made. i'll definitely check out the ones you recommended. feel a bit shabby since i have nothing to offer in return. (watched rashomon recently, but no doubt you've seen it already)

don't have a qq account, but i left you a message :)

隐君子

um.. the jigsaw puzzle is really impressive.. i don't have one in my mind to match it.

a soul mate is ... probably, the one who holds the answer to every question you have in life while having questions that can only be answered by you...

too wordy.. but always interesting to try a different definition. it is like describing the beauty of a diamond by seeing every face of it.

I love Shawshank too!!!

I thought most people do too, how can you say hardly anybody like it?  I have a friend who might suit you, but unfortunately she does not believe in meeting someone from the internet.

My only comment here is, there seems to be no element of love in the whole article?  The audience you are trying to attract is women who are (mostly, if not all) obsessed with the L word.  And no, I do not agree marriage should be an exchange of conditions and obligations.  

Oh ok, maybe I am just another hopeless romantic, didn't get me any closer to finding someone anyway!  I do wish you luck in finding the right person.  Afterall, the earth cannot become saturated with happiness, I say the more the merrier.

隐君子

Hello, Phyllis,
I love shawshank redemption.. which gave me a lot of courage in those days. in fact, many of us are imprisoned by some thoughts.

most people around me love action movies, thrillers or movies that bring temporary and superficial pleasure and excitement but hardly arouse your deep emotions and provoke your thoughts.

apart from shawshank redemption, 12 angry men, the legend of the fall, dead poets society, the silence of the lamb, American beauty, Se7en are among my favourite. these movies remind me that humans are rational individuals who can always exercise discretion and conduct rational thinking.

nothing gives more pleasure than thinking.  thinking reminds my physical presence in this otherwise mundane, lifeless world. Some philosophers doubt whether human beings are qualified as human beings when they are asleep, because they cannot think when asleep.

nor do i agree that marriage can be reduced to a collection of arrangements and obligations.    love is too precious to be traded.      the marriage without love as the basis is a tragedy, a prison similar to the one in shawshank redemption.

"I killed her, though i did not pull the trigger."  said Frank.   Frank is an altruistic man who knows how to forsake a marriage in which love does not exist.   

Nor do i think that i am lucky enough to find the right person that can match my thinking. I am not pessimistic but realistic.

however, hope is the only thing that keeps us alive even in the worse days of our life.  I hardly reject hope.

隐君子

though i don't trust luck.

Good on you and good luck!!
