Not trying to discriminate but Saudi Arabia and India just popped into my mind as most likely to have guys like that. I'm sure guys like that can exist in any part of the country too. A lot of filipino women who are desperate for money sometimes go to an agency that sends them to Saudi Arabia or around that region to work as a babysitter or housekeeper. Most of these agencies are illegal or don't care what really happens to these girls. A lot of them get raped or abused by these guys for being disobedient and most of the guys expect sexual services. I think this happened most frequently in the 80's/early 90's. There's been a lot of revelation about it since then so I think it doesn't happen as frequently but still happens. From what I heard or saw in documentaries, I just thought the guys were more willing to want obedient wives because sometimes the wives would know that this was happening to their maids/babysitter and they were either too scared to do anything or they accepted it as a norm because it happened in other households too.
I only mentioned India because of my best friend, who is taking more classes just so she can avoid her arranged marriage. She's suppose to marry him when she graduates so took the longest thing she could find - med school. Whenever she talks about Indian guys, it's always positive and negative. She thinks some of them are really nice guys, and some would care more about a job and making money rather than having a wife to love.
