Deteriorating sex lives and relationships among Thai couples is usually caused by poor communications in a society where sex is taboo.
Like they don't look out the window , or what

Stripped of reason my mind is blank
Emptied of being my nature is bare
At night my windows often breathe white
The moon and stream come right to the door.

Thanks H90 for that.
I am not greedy, $500 US a month would be enough.
Surely there is some way to do this?
sure but are you willing to put in two years of work for free to end up with this after two years ?
most people give up after two weeks with their new website.
Google only starts to list you after 6 months so ....

i guess that at this point u could say i am 'buddhist' in that i realize that since i was about 16yrs old , i've been thinking along these lines, have always realized that there is a lot of truth in the idea that craving brings suffereing, etc etc etc... but only recently i've realized that a lot of what i think/do is 'buddhistic' in style/way... however i beleive that if u ask thai friends if i am buddhist, they will say, no, i'm 'yu' (jewish) which of course means that i dont eat food once a year, and bread for a week, and am supposed to not eat pork, etc....... the fact that i may be 'more' buddhist than most of them, does not make me buddhist in their eyes since u dont become 'budhist' its just part of life.....so dont think there really is conversion....
I doubt many Thais have come across someone who has converted. I think generally they assume that everyone is whatever religion they were born into. I think they'd accept you as a Buddhist if you did all the Buddhist things they do and don't observe other religions' practices.
But try telling upcountry Thais that you meditate or that you are a Mahayana Buddhist and you'll probably get a strange reaction. If you meditate, this is considered something mostly monks do. If you follow Mahayana, they probably won't see that as being "Thai Buddhism."
Not to mention that for most thai people buddhism is just something they have learned to do, perform the routines.
The real message or meaning behind buddhism is illusive to them. Hence the mix with animism, worship of sculptures, rituals ect...
It's an equal exercise to being thought catholicism as a child , or any other religion forced on by the parents.
It's going through the motions......

Bombs In London Underground ?

Several injured in London blasts
from the bbc
Passengers were evacuated from King's Cross station
Several people have been injured after explosions on the Underground network and a double-decker bus in London.
A police spokesman said there were "quite a large number of casualties" at Aldgate Tube Station.
And Scotland Yard confirmed one of several reports of explosions on buses in the city - in Tavistock Place - but said the cause was not yet known.
One caller to BBC Five said his friend had seen "the bus ripped open like a can of sardines and bodies everywhere."
PA also quoted union officials as saying sources had told them there had been at least one explosive device on the Underground.
British Transport Police Surges took place at Aldgate, Edgware Road, King's Cross, Old Street and Russell Square stations.
Scotland Yard confirmed they were assisting with a "major incident" and said there were casualties.
A spokesman said officers were called out to Aldgate station at 8.50am to assist City of London and British Transport Police.
"All of the emergency services are on scene. There have been some casualties. This has been declared as a major incident," said the spokesman. "It's too early to state what has happened at this stage," he said.
The National Grid, which supplies power to the Underground, said there had been no problems with its system which could have contributed to the incidents.
'Screaming and crying'
Jacqui Head, from BBC News, who had just left King's Cross station on a Piccadilly Line train as an explosion happened, said: "Everything was normal. Suddenly there was a massive bang, the train jolted.
"There was immediately smoke everywhere and it was hot and everybody panicked. People started screaming and crying."
The train was kept in the tunnel for 20 minutes and no announcement was made to explain the delay to passengers, she added.
London Fire Brigade said four crews were at Liverpool Street and more were on their way.
Another passenger, who had left the Tube at Fenchurch Street Station, and walked to Aldgate East, told BBC Five Live that he saw injured people.
"As I walked through the bus station I could see people lying on the ground, black, as if they'd been covered in smoke. There were about three or four people on the floor being treated."
Eyewitness Paul Woloszyn from BBC News, who was at Blackhorse Road station on the Victoria Line, said: "We were told there was a bomb at Liverpool Street station.
"I was on the Tube, and they stopped the train and told everyone to get off and evacuate the station."
He said staff had said the entire Tube network had been affected, and leaflets had been handed out with details of alternative bus routes.
Another eyewitness, Dorothy Molloy, had been on a Tube train at King's Cross and said "staff just chucked everyone out of the station".
She said staff there had not given any details, but she said two passengers she had spoken to had said they had received messages saying there had been bombs.
"People didn't really know what was going on, they were just huffing and puffing and saying how annoying it was," she said.
"People don't seem to be panicked, but there's so many police and ambulances coming into the areas. People are just concerned, and some are just annoyed at the delay."
