Please someone tell me what WGF means! I've been rereading this thread and I cannot figure out what the hell this means. Lol.
It stands for Whale Girl Friend.
When unmarried guys get to 50/60+ they feel that their days of loving thin ladies is over. So they have to settle
For real though, it means White God Factor, the idea that just being white gives you an advantage. This was largely the case in SE Asia, South America, Africa etc.
The primary WGF was based around:
(a) initial attraction and short-term dating. Some men have or had a myopic view on this aspect of the WGF.
(b) longer-term relationships with a more transactional view from the woman, where the man was the means to an end, I.E. money, resources etc. Men have tended to ignore this reality underlying WGF.
It is still claimed by many people online that the WGF exists for all Asians. There is some truth to this, but it is largely a fallacy. Feel free to visit Korea now and test this principle out for yourself.
The demographics of dating do tend to favour White men generally speaking, but they favour Asian women much more. Also, research on this has mainly been done in the West. So these stats may not reflect the reality of non-Western scenes.
White Men and Asian Women Have the Highest Response Rates
Black Men and Women Have the Lowest Response Rates
Most Men Prefer Asian Women, Except Asian Men

P.S.
Most Women Prefer White Men, Except Black Women
Must be because we are scared
Second lady nailed it. We are definitely intimidated!
P.S. good luck to any man flying overseas, especially N.E. Asia, and thinking that just "showing up" will get him anywhere. This isn't the 1990s anymore. In the last 10 years or so, after the advent of phones with internet, the WGF and general foreigner factor has reduced
hugely.
No matter where you go, men relying on special foreigner status are likely to get fleeced in the longer term. Guys who think they can wait years and years until they are 50+ and just travel overseas to "buy a wife" (as suggested on CIK and elsewhere) are likely to face the harsh reality of being a walking ATM and IG photographer for their remaining years. Old or not, Rich or not, Christian or not... Men need to understand the nature of women and relationships.
This isn't meant to deter anyone from trying. Not at all. It's more so a suggested incentive to start investing more in one's own self development. You only get out what you put in. This way we can make the best choices for ourselves, out of abundance and understanding, not scarcity and confusion. In the end, I think the rewards can be worth it.
