You also hear women say "Oh I like a bad boy me" and "But he makes me feel so safe". Women can very often like men that treat them very badly. Then there's the fear. The bad-boy she chose threatens to kill her if she leaves (even more likely in Thailand). Also there's the fact that men often earn more than women, and they have a kid together, so they're pretty reliant on him. I think they just find a way to tolerate it or even don't mind it in some situations. Don't abusers normally apologise and act nicely for a while after an assault?

Will Thailand’s new residency visa achieve results?
BangkokReady replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
And the visa was enough to make you want to come to Thailand? You wouldn't have come if it wasn't offered? -

No. Those that want to can't and those that can don't want to. -
Off topic? How? Someone said the monk is solely to blame. I said other people could have helped the girl in the article at some point. How is that off topic? How is what I said Thai bashing? Is Thai bashing simply saying something negative about some aspect of Thailand? She's not even homeless! And how would that change anything? If a 14 year old girl is living alone, something has gone wrong somewhere.

In "Down and out in Paris and London" (1933) George Orwell explains that in very poor households, mothers would share beds with daughters, while fathers would share beds with sons. The reason for this was that if male and female siblings shared a bed, they believed it would lead to incest. Not sure how true that is. ????♂️
