Are you a "budget wife"?

Despite the name, being a budget wife -- or jingji shiyong nv in Chinese -- is harder than it seems. According a list published by an anonymous Web user on Sina Weibo, China's most popular micro-blogging platform, to qualify as one, you must:
 
• Be between 5'2" and 5'8"
• Weigh between 100 and 120 pounds
• Have long hair that trails over shoulders
• Be warm and mild in personality
• Have B- to C-cup size breasts
• Not be a "gold digger" (baijinnv)
• Not be a flirt
• Not be horny
• Earn between roughly $500-$1000 per month
• Have a BA or above
• Know how to cook and wash clothes
• Be responsible and sympathetic
• Speak appropriately
• Be educated and reasonable
....

"Budget wife" is the female counterpart of "budget husband," or jingji shiyong nan, a concept introduced at least four years ago. The 2009 publication of the book Me and My Budget Husband popularized the term, and its 2012 transformation into a TV drama series fueled the term's further spread.
 
The word "budget husband" originates from the word "budget housing" (jingji shiyong fang), government subsidized public housing for low-income households. As the name implies, budget husbands' economic power trails that of "diamond husbands" -- intelligent, educated, rich, and well-mannered men from respectable families. Nonetheless, a budget husband is, according to Baidu, the new ideal among Chinese female white-collar workers.
 
One of the main characteristics of a budget husband is that he be "normal." Not ugly but not too handsome; neither poor nor rich. In short: mediocre.
 
But this mediocrity promises stability. Budget husbands are reliable, both financially and emotionally. They will loyally stay at home and take care of the house; they will not go out to bars or have extramarital affairs.

2. Skinny but with big tits. BA or above.

And all the personality traits add up to "be a doormat." The "not be horny" means no sexual demands that don't originate from the husband.
 
Men who want this list need to save up and buy themselves a Real Doll. They're not ready for real women.

3. This is China. They already have an excess of people

You need to see the list from their culture, not ours.

6. No, I don't

If something's ****ed up, it's ****ed up. Doesn't matter what culture it comes from. Like eating dogs.

I suspect that in the original, the 'Not be horny' part probably meant something more along the lines of what an American might say as 'Not be a ho.'

Damn, Warpy. Aren't you a shrew?

You only qualify as a woman because you have no Y chromosomes.

It's not a cultural thing.

Men in every culture since the beginning of time have been looking for women who meet something similar to those criteria.

It doesn't really matter what militant feminazis like ugly DUmmy Warpy think.

Women like her have been  undesirable in every culture since the beginning of time, and always will be.

DUmmie takes offense to that.  I find it perfectly reasonable to want a mate who doesn't embarrass the entire family every time they open their mouth.
