Cindy Rodriguez quotes the prospective husband of a Chinese "e-mail bride" saying,

I've always been attracted to petite, dark-haired women, but it's their demeanor that I really like.

Being the husband of a Chinese woman, talk like that always makes me a little defensive. But I think a lot of these guys are going to get more than they bargained for. Quite a few Chinese women are pretty strong personalities. And quite a few just want to live in the US. But I've got to admit, some of the marriages will work out. (also via Rice Cooker).
