Thanks for the insider info. Do you know if Ape Man was deported because of the movies or some other official reason? I don't really care about that guy, but it would be interesting regarding above article.

I am a little surprised about this. Years ago, there were several well-known guys doing porn videos in Bangkok and Pattaya. The male performers found the girls in the bars. That was known in the bars and with the girls and happened for years. At that time, it should not have been difficult to find and arrest all involved. But, as far as I know, that went on for years without arrests. So, what changed? No tea money anymore? Some foreign NGO?

Which proves that dogs are smarter than many western feminists. 😉

And luckily most women here understand this intuitively.

I am not in the mood to read long text for no good reason.

The question is obviously also what kind of helmet. It seems there are many 100B "helmets" in Thailand which are maybe good enough to keep the parts of a head together in one place. But with no impact resistance at all. One problem with wearing a decent helmet in Thailand is where to put it. Do you want to put it in one of those ugly big boxes on a bike? Or chain it to the bike? And obviously, it's hot. And it's so nice to have the wind blowing in your hair... Apart from that, 95% of the time I use a helmet.

I know a guy over 70 who likes to play with the girls. When they ask him how old he is, he answers kind of truthfully "over 50". I don't think it would make a difference to them, but somehow it makes him feel better/younger.

"Why Do So Many Foreign Men Still Marry Short-Time Girls?" The girls make them happy, in some cases happier than they have been their whole life. Obviously, they guys want more of the same.

Here is the AI summary. Thanks to https://www.perplexity.ai/ Why are lots of posts suddenly to very long? Do they use AI to create a two-page text out of a simple question? The post explores the challenges of marrying women from Thailand's sex industry, particularly those offering short-term services. The author notes that many are skilled manipulators focused on financial gain rather than genuine emotional connections. Their backgrounds often involve poverty and limited education, leading to issues with emotional maturity and trust.While some men may feel drawn to these women out of loneliness or a desire to "rescue" them, such relationships frequently center on financial dynamics rather than true partnership. Ultimately, the author argues that marrying a woman from this background is risky, with many relationships facing significant challenges that hinder lasting happiness.

If you really wanted to know, you could have asked the girls around you in the last decades. But maybe they would have been too polite to tell you the truth. IMHO anyone > maybe 70 is old. Some might think or feel like not so old, but that doesn't change the fact.

Hopefully you learned that before you got old.

I didn't particularly like my parents. And I know lots of people with children who "misbehave" and don't like their parents. Obviously, there are also some situations where parents and children are happy together, also later in life. Children are, especially in Thailand, a huge financial burden. I wouldn't want my children going to a cheap school. So, option 1, I would have to work mostly for the children, option 2 send them to a cheap school, or option 3 having no children. I like option 3. If I would earn a lot of money (lets say >10k USD per month) then maybe option 1 would be acceptable.

What? Getting younger? 😉

But then, how many people who lose their mind know that they lose their mind? Obviously, it is a difficult situation for the people around them, but the people who lose their mind don't know it (at least as fas as I know).

Sure. Not that this is the purpose of my life. We all see people every day. Back home those are often old people. Here, there are many beautiful/cute girls. Now, it's not so difficult to decide which situation I, and most other guys, prefer. Just going to a shop like 7/11 or the supermarket, "at home" I remember lots of old fat women who were clearly unhappy at the cash register. Here, there are often smiling girls behind the counter. IMHO that improves life a lot.

I still enjoy my life. But I don't see that it will get better in the years to come.

Is it more fun to have sex with educated women?

That works at any age.

Then, in the hindsight, do you think you lived "wrong"? Obviously, I also made some mistakes in my life, but in general I think I choose a good path.

Isn't it? Obviously it's not only the girls. There is the weather, the food, the friendly people. But the girls help a lot. When I go out of the building I see most likely our very cute security guard. Maybe I go the supermarket or 7/11 and I see some pretty girls there. Or I just walk along the street or go to Terminal 21. Pretty girls everywhere. At "home" I would see most likely 10 times more old people than here. And I would be lucky if 1 out of 10 women is not ugly. I think it's just nice being surrounded by pretty girls.

When I was a child, we made holiday in Spain and the Canarian Islands. I liked it, mostly because it was sunny with a beach. I guess I could live there, and it was fine. But after living in Thailand with pretty girls all over the place for decades, Spain would definitely not be any improvement.

When I was young, I remember some songs telling me life gets better when one is older, and I laughed about them. Now I am getting old, and I am not looking forward to getting any older. Maybe the people who worked in some boring job all their life and who had to take care of children are happy when they finally retire. No work anymore, no annoying children anymore, time for hobbies. Personally, I like my job. I never wanted children and never had children. Sometimes my life was busier, sometimes not so much. I always had a home, nice enough food, I lived where I wanted to live, had friends, had my hobbies, and I lived happily most of my life. I always lived in the now and didn't save a lot for a future when I am old. I am still ok with money, but I don't have enough until I am 90. But why would I want to be 80 or 90? It's not getting better. How about you? Is there anything in your life that is more fun with 60, 70, 80, 90 or whatever? Or is it just living another year, with a little more medial issues, with a little less power?

It depends. Sure, it's nice to always get what we want. But if I would have the choice between living where I was born with steak everyday, or in Thailand with Kao Pat, I guess I would still prefer Thailand.

Correct. And don't forget those Americans.
