There was a photo of her standing in front of her billboard ad.<br \/>\nI must say that this woman is very brave to take up such an ad! I sure as hell wouldn&#8217;t pull off something like that. She describes herself as a &#8220;beautiful intelligent Australian Chinese lady&#8221; who is seeking to have a &#8220;dream family with a fabulous partner to enjoy a lifetime with&#8221;. Apparently she has a thing for white men as she has specifically asked for someone of Caucasian appearance. Her other criteria include having a good sense of humour, solid financial background with warm and caring nature, and she prefers someone who&#8217;s a businessman or from a professional background.<br \/>\nI say she should go to the movies&#8211;that way she&#8217;ll find this person she&#8217;s looking for!<br \/>\nAnd just for the heck of it, since it&#8217;s a Friday, and I have a self-given licence to be ditsy and bimbotic, what should I write if I were to put up one for myself?<br \/>\n<i><b>Intelligent (ahem) Chinese woman seeks to find partner who can accompany her on her eating escapades<br \/>\n&#8211; Ideally can cook, enjoys food, and doesn&#8217;t eat like a bird<br \/>\n&#8211; solid financial background&#8230;must be able to bring in the bacon both literally and metaphorically<br \/>\nOnly connoisseurs and food aficionados need reply. <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I read with incredulity in yesterday&#8217;s newspapers about how this Chinese Australian woman in Sydney has bought a billboard ad to try to get herself a husband.
