Dating Indonesian women may not be for everyone.
Indonesian women, particularly on the island of Java, are exceptionally beautiful. They tend towards the very feminine side, with lovely skin, are not too tall, and have knock-out smiles. There’s plenty of plus on that side of things.
If wer’e to be honest we have to recognise that many men are interested in a woman who will take care of him, do the housework without complaint, and take care of other matters similarly without much bother. Your average Indonesian girl often fits the bill in this respect, certainly more than your average western woman, the less said about them the better.
On the other hand going out with Indonesian women in a romantic way can have many mysterious pitfalls.
Some women here are clearly only interested in money. Some men are unbothered by this. Others of the female variety, can, once we get to know them very well, come across as practically insane, hysterically emotional, scheming, over-possessive, inclined to, usually fake, attempts at self-harm in order to get their way. As I said, not for the faint-hearted.
There are a few Indonesia dating websites although the area is not nearly as developed as that in nearby Phillipines or Thailand. To begin your online journey on the Indonesian dating scene our very own “Meet” section has many a lady eager for company.
Daniel,
I recommend you to listen to Pak Aluang. He is wise. I also call on all Bules to listen to the Asian civilization man, who has had more than 5,000 years, when you people were savages.
@ Janma,
Friend, thank you for your honest feedback on my poem. I respect your truth, Friend.
I fail to understand were this is going…..so your point is that the color of your skin makes you more pervert. Don’t you think this is a bit simplist. I am amazed at someone who obviuously has education, that such a simplistic idea can find root. Or it my be conforting for you ego.
The english teachers do come to teach english because people want to learn it. It’s a matter of offer and demand. The salary and living conditions they get surely wont buy you the cream of the cream. As for them being perverts, thats just your personal conclusions.
I think you over estimate the FPI. They don’t have much favor in the public opinion and are seen as idiots bringing down the name of Islam. Anyhow from what i see the FPI is more deranging for indonesians frequenting dubious places.
Anyhow you will have to get used to it. The world is changing. It will become more and more cosmopolite. With it the positive and negative.
I think Anak Aluang that we have to agree that we disagree. And thats the end of it.
For Achmad: I don’t feel indonesians are of less quality or are less worthy….in fact i think very highly of them. But indonesia does have social problems(every country has)… Why don’t you believe in yourself ? Is that peom the best you can do? I think indonesians are slaves of indonesian nowadays…..the white men is out of the equation. So by focusing on the wrong place you will get nowere.
Anyhow i will stop replying to this thread. I think people like Achmad are just putting oil on fire without bringing any quality arguments to the debate.
Have a good discussion everyone,
Mr. Achmad Sudarsono you just have an inferiority complex my friend!!! Your poem just proves how primitive you really are. And what crap for brains you really have!!! You blame the bules for just about everything that goes wrong!!! Like in the recession time of the late 90’s when all Indonesians blamed the Chinese for it and so many innocent people died for nothing!!! And your statement “I think the Bule come here for the ayam” yes Achmad for the ayam goreng!!! that is about all.
I’ve been to Indonesia and lived with the locals be it in the city and the country, I got on well with them and you are doing them a disservice by your comments my friend!!! They are much more fairdinkum (if you know what that means???) then you will ever be Mr. Achmad!!! Wake up to yourself and give credit where it’s due, without the west Indonesia would be or should I say wouldn’t be!!!
Wake up to yourself and give credit where it’s due, without the west Indonesia would be or should I say wouldn’t be!!!
Say it out loud, will ya .. Ayam Addict!
Boys, boys–calm down. Clearly Aluang does not live in Jakarta or he is totally clueless. FPI is nothing more than a group of thugs who go around extorting money in the name of Islam–notice that they never bother the clubs that are backed by Tomy Winata, the police or the military.
Please take a trip to Jl. Pangeran Jayakarta in North Jkt and find a place called Kompeks Kota Indah–inside you will find brothels that buy and sell 14-16 yr. old girls from Indramayu. NONE of the customers are westerners, they are ALL pribumi or chinese. So much for your bullsh*t theories. Go down there and spout your bullsh*t those girls really need protecting–from their own people. Incidentally, FPI is afraid to go there because the police would put bullets in their heads for interfering with their profits. The real pedophiles in that part of Jkt are the locals–pribumis and chinese alike–not a white face to be found.
So while FPI is protecting Indo chicks from the westerners who will protect them from Aluang and all the other MUNAFIK pribumis??
Well said Tony!
I recommend you to listen to Pak Aluang. He is wise. I also call on all Bules to listen to the Asian civilization man, who has had more than 5,000 years, when you people were savages
It’s a pity that you Mr. Achmad and millions like you don’t! You have so much wisdom in writings but none of you listen or learn. You preach your hypocrisy and don’t give a dam whats happening in your back yards!!!
But very well put Tony and I fully agree with you and your example is just one of many goings on where corruption and sodomy is part of the course.
Tony said:

You are wrong my friend, yes they are there all right, as guests and customers ………….. 😀
Peace.
Just one more thought–referring to women as Ayam is degrading-those women who work as PSK would much rather do something else for a living. If those who assault westerners on this website are true to their cause then be true–please do not degrade Indonesian women who work at the karaoke or in Blok M–they are your sisters and deserve better than that–if they had a choice they would choose something else.
As the revolutionary Ernesto Che Guevara once said:
At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality… We must strive every day so that this love of living humanity will be transformed into actual deeds, into acts that serve as examples, as a moving force.
Brown is Beautiful!!

Pedophilia exists in every society but it is more prevalent in Bules societies. I am afraid this is a fact.bullsh*t”¦..! it’s just more publicized and people report it more in the west.

Well said Tony!
Mbak Janma, how sarcastic, how corrupted yet innocent looking. Or maybe a foxy in sheep clothing. In your climaxed fantasy, you dreamed of your white skinned honcho sitting on a throne stroking his faithful yellow skinned Chinese crested dog. Wake up, you ungrateful biatch! Your Bule masters ain’t transparent as you like us to believe.
I call a spade, a spade. Sexual perversions like paraphilia, incestry and bestiality are almost unheard of with the great Asian race – Chinese, Indian and the Javanese. Chinese as ‘Han’ Chinese; Indian as ‘hindu’ Indian; and Javanese as the ‘Malay’ race. As an Asian (I believe you are Indon-Chinese), and growing up in Asian society, when was the first time or last time you heard of Asian pedophile, wives swapping, sex with animal, incestry, etc, within your neighbourhood? Yes, there are Asian pedophiles, yes they are Asian couples who swap wives, but they are almost unheard of, unlike what you HEAR and SEE in Bule countries. NOT less reported as you deceitfully try to con the readers.
Aluang,
You are very clueless—at his point I see that you are here to either be entertaining or just plain BODOH!! Because you sound like you have NEVER been to Asia by what you just typed.
Hati2–nanti orang2 sini akan pangil kamu TOLOL daripada Aluang (he,he,he). Kalo mau belajar, tolong datang aja ke klinik umum di kampung dan nanya dokter2 disana mengenai kasus2 yang termasuk cewek2 yang di hamili sama bapak/saudara/orang dewasa. Kebanyakan korban (cewek) ada di bawa umur 15–itu namanya pedophilia.
Jangan bodoh2 disini–kamu bikin orang Indo lain malu–nga mungkin sebodoh kamu!! (he,he,he)
LOL try some North Kalimantan dialect for a change.
Pastinya itu orang keturunan timor tengah, atau Bule dari Oz – kecuali Tassie. Disana, abang-adik miang amput ampai dan cewek2 siok diamputi kuyuk2 dan ambok2. Maka terhamil bangsa Bule.

How old are you Aluang? in which society do you live in Indonesia? What kind of newspapers do you read? Are you blind or deaf?
If a 13 years old girl married to a 40 years old man, what do you call it? tradition?
Poor Indonesia and poor indonesian children (if all of the so called intellectuals think the same! 🙁 )
“Pastinya itu orang keturunan timor tengah, atau Bule dari Oz – kecuali Tassie. Disana, abang-adik miang amput ampai dan cewek2 siok diamputi kuyuk2 dan ambok2. Maka terhamil bangsa Bule.”
No comment!! Its under my niveau!!
I have a question for people in this forum?? Does anyone know what happened to the propose law that would require orang asing to pay Rp 500jt to marry an Indonesian woman?? I know it has not passed but is it dead or will another member of DPR/MPR try and revive the law??
Calm down, I am just your average honest Brown man reporting from within our communities; and speaking and writing from the hearts of other fellow observers. You may not like what you hear but I am not writing to please anyone. I can pat you on your back and tell you, ‘good on ya, mate. You are a good man’ but am I telling the truth?
Like in another topic “Muslimah Gothess”, I said that Arabs and Pakis murders their daughters. Unfortunately for Arabs and Pakis, they are not Bules; otherwise our ever on-guard Bules’ pet Janma will bolt in and said ‘Javanese murders our daughters too – just not publicized’. When you are brought up in a society where you do not hear things like sodomizing, swingings or murdering daughters, it meant they’re simply not there – NOT LESS PUBLICIZED. Why don’t I say the Chinese swaps their wives; or the Indian rape their daughter; and instead picked on the Arabs and Pakis? It is because chances of the larger Chinese or Indian population indulging in sexual pervasion are almost unheard of.
“Pastinya itu orang keturunan timor tengah, atau Bule dari Oz – kecuali Tassie. Disana, abang-adik miang amput ampai dan cewek2 siok diamputi kuyuk2 dan ambok2. Maka terhamil bangsa Bule.”
I am sure you can read the first and last sentence. It is Melayu. The middle sentence is native Dayak (Belait and Dusun version). It is in response to Tony’s lousy Melayu vocab. But this is how we speak in Kalimantan, mix of Dayaks and Melayus.
Aluang, now I (maybe) understand you. But … in the reality many Indonesian (not Asian) think the way you wrote.
And my brown friend, let me tell you: pedophilia is common in Indonesia. And raping, and wife beating and wife abasing and children working and ….. (from a yellow-brown man).
Btw: who is Tassie? 🙂

Typical Aussie’s response.
Mas Sudarsono. What is the chance of this primate hail from Pulau Apel? Remember, the one with 6 digits on each hand. Probably also spot a sewn-back scar mark next to the neck. hahaha.
darn .. reread and found a mistake in my Melayu … Patung please amend it, thanks.
Pastinya itu orang keturunan timor tengah, atau Bule dari Oz – kecuali Tassie.
Change ‘kecuali’ to ‘terutamanya’.
________________________________
Btw: who is Tassie?
Tassie are hailed from the Apple Isle. It is modern equivalent to Sodom and Gomarrah; every imaginable sexual perversion you find it there. The inhabitants have 6 digits on each hand, and an extra head. Ask Brother Sudarsono more about it. He is an expert on the land downunder.
You in Indonesia have many, many (sexual) problems, hmm ..? 🙂
Dear yellow-brown man re,
And my brown friend, let me tell you: pedophilia is common in Indonesia. And raping, and wife beating and wife abasing and children working and “¦.. (from a yellow-brown man).
The tribal culture of the Javanese and most Malayic groups follow a matriarchal system. Don’t read anthropology books written by Bules that say we are patriarchy. They don’t know a thing. To this day, Women are highly regarded in our society, and daughters are prized possession in a traditional Javanese and Melayu families; They are the ones parents depended come old age, not the sons (Chinese is the other way round). Take a look around you – daughters sticking to their parents like honey and bees.
Pedophilic, raping, wife beating are alien to Javanese and Melayu culture. These are Islamic virtues; and as you live in Indonesia, you know other pri group adopted Islam as well. Some must have succumbed to their religion; but certainly not Javanese. Don’t forget there are middle-eastern moslems taking advantages of our brown women. You can spot a Bules right away, but these middle-easterners have black hairs and you must have mistaken them for Indonesians.
So, NO pedophilic, raping, wife beating are uncommon. Child labor YES.
Regards.
Aluang,
I don’t know where and how you live. But – believe me – in Pedophilia, raping, wife beating etc are not alien to melayu culture.
The anthropology books writen by so called “bule”s don’t contain such things and those “bule” researchers are respecting Indonesian and other cultures more than Indonesians respecting other cultures.
I hope you will start reading those books and then give your statements.
🙂
Friend, do not take it as an insult. I travelled widely in my younger years because my parents was foreign attaches; now I travelled frequently because of business commitments. You can hide your head and keep on denying, ask any honest Asian who is willling to tell the truth. You will see that I am not making this up.
How sad!!!!! With all your traveling experience…. how come you are such a narrow minded person!!!!!
@ tomaculum
The Melayu group concentrates in Jakarta (some), Sumatra (Riau), Malaysia and Brunei. They were the ones colonial powers favour and put in high positions. Their language made official in Brunei, Malaysia and Indonesia citing ‘Javanese language had too much variation’ despite Javanese being the majority. The real reason was Javanese is stubborn and not someone you can put in high position and cunning Bules pull string from behind. As Javanese populace concentrates on Java Island, we crept into the top jobs and replaced the puppets.
I don’t know where and how you live. But – believe me – in Pedophilia, raping, wife beating etc are not alien to melayu culture.
I am not surprised. In Malaysia and Brunei, the Melayus had started destroying ancestral artifacts and relics, calling them unIslamic. They are in their final stage of Islamic metamorphosis. Javanese however hold on to their treasured Borobudur, Wayang Kulit and tradisi passed down from their ancestors. Maybe I should specific it properly:
Pedophilic, raping, wife beating are alien to Javanese culture.
Are you happy now?
Also,
The anthropology books writen by so called “bule”s don’t contain such things and those “bule” researchers are respecting Indonesian and other cultures more than Indonesians respecting other cultures.
I hope you will start reading those books and then give your statements.
Give me the title of the books. I will get it within the next few days. I am having my holidays now and have plenty of time to read. Most Bules researchers are interested in profit from their book sales. I do not doubt they wrote in high regard of our culture, but they are nonsense and untrue. It is just like me telling a Bule English teacher in Indonesia respectfully:
You are a Super Duper Teacher; but in my mind, I know why he is in Indonesia.
(Don’t get me wrong. English teacher is a highly respected profession outside Asia).
Aluang,
look for books of Geertz or Schweizer etc,etc. There are some details in it which I don’t agree, but you will read respectful tones out ofvthem.
“Most Bules researchers are interested in profit from their book sales.”
It is definitely wrong, Aluang. They do it for their career!
“Pedophilic, raping, wife beating are alien to Javanese culture.
Are you happy now?”
Why should I be happy if this statement or specification is wrong? Also in the javanese society are such things not external.
“I do not doubt they wrote in high regard of our culture, but they are nonsense and untru”
Hmm, did you read some of those books? very intelligent generalization, isn’t it, Aluang?
Btw: why shouldn’t the whites dating indonesian girls/men/women/boys?
Do I read a penis envy out of some comments here?
If they (those girls/men/women/boys) like and want to do it, why not? Who are we judging their deeds? Some of you guys are acting like alpha apes loosing their bananas or bitches.
@ tomaculum
I know you are not a native English speaker, neither do I. I doubt your reading ability after every non sequitur responses you gave me, or you’re having a sip too many last night? Besides my tenses and syntax out of place in some sentences, most of what I had wrote were clear and concise. I have only completed secondary English in Singapore.
Let’s take a sightseeing tour down memory lane.
If a 13 years old girl married to a 40 years old man, what do you call it? tradition?
Out of the blue …
Poor Indonesia and poor indonesian children (if all of the so called intellectuals think the same! )
Huh .. is there a hidden code?
No comment!! Its under my niveau!!
How aloof! Probably you meant ‘beyond’.
You in Indonesia have many, many (sexual) problems, hmm ..?
Scroll back .. it does not follow.
The anthropology books writen by so called “bule”s don’t contain such things and those “bule” researchers are respecting Indonesian and other cultures more than Indonesians respecting other cultures.
I hope you will start reading those books and then give your statements.
The anthropology books – This is not a title of a book, or is it? The whole statement assumed that I have read ‘The anthropology books’ and complaining about ‘respect/disrespect-ing culture’. How on earth you come to that conclusion?
Btw: why shouldn’t the whites dating indonesian girls/men/women/boys?

You’re questioning and answering yourself. If you are sober, it is straw puppetry.
Brother, it is not yet New Year, and you are having a hangover. 🙂
Happy New Year!
“The anthropology books – This is not a title of a book, or is it?”
Ooops?? There are many anthropology books. Read two of the importants ones: Geertz and Schweizer.
“The whole statement assumed that I have read ‘The anthropology books’ and complaining about ‘respect/disrespect-ing culture’. How on earth you come to that conclusion?”
Based on this:
“The tribal culture of the Javanese and most Malayic groups follow a matriarchal system. Don’t read anthropology books written by Bules that say we are patriarchy.”
Javanese tribal culture follow a matriarchal system? Interesting!! A new finding, Aluang? Do you know the meaning of matriarchal or patriarchal or matrilineal???? 🙂
Aluang, thanks for your corrections. Yes, I’m not a native english speaker.
Btw: I would be happy when the Indonesians start to think (sophisticated).
Prosit, hiks!! 🙂
@ tomaculum,
Javanese tribal culture follow a matriarchal system? Interesting!! A new finding, Aluang? Do you know the meaning of matriarchal or patriarchal or matrilineal????
Hey you are right brother! Matrilineal is a new word to me. It is more apt than Matriarchal. Darn, my biological and adopted sisters even got more than a fair share of inheritance from my parents’ will. Sometime I wish I am Chinese. Anyway, my point again is that Javanese respect their womanfolk. If you heard of Javanese or Melayus mistreating their wives, daughter, it is either out of character or they are Islamized.

Daniel,
Your mentality ‘blame it on the Islamists’ is so typical Bule (and hypocritical). I for one, grew up and spent half of my life in homes away from home (Brunei, Singapore, Pakistan, India, etc) and I know what the people think. To be fair, well not all Bules are perverts, not the real expats who had valid reason to live and work in Asian countries; but the recent phenomena – explosion of English teachers in South East Asian countries, who are here for reasons other than teaching. I do not need info from FPI because it is a well-known hearsay.
I have a dinner meeting with my Chinese associates when I was in Shanghai last month, and the conversations was then switched ‘off-topic’ about Japs. We talked about Jap men being sexually dysfunctioned; and my Chinese friends said Japs learnt it from ‘bien dai yang ren’ meaning ‘sexually perverted White man’. From Shanghai to Jakarta to New Delhi, the general perception of Bules in all Asian countries are the same.
Friend, do not take it as an insult. I travelled widely in my younger years because my parents was foreign attaches; now I travelled frequently because of business commitments. You can hide your head and keep on denying, ask any honest Asian who is willling to tell the truth. You will see that I am not making this up.
In Indonesia, our brown girls are protected by FPI, well at the least.
