I am somewhat confused by your statement, why would I cart an old passport around with me if I have visa stamps in the new one? I last entered Thailand in February 2020, with the new passport. From that, I am assuming the visa was transferred to the new passport, otherwise I would have been refused entry.

I have never had the situations you quote arise in Thailand. IME if women are treated with consideration, they will respond favorably. I always tried to put them at ease. If a woman was reluctant, I would let it go. So many options available. As several posters have said, sometimes we don't pay for sex, we pay them to leave.

What's astounding is you can make these claims without any way for other posters to verify what you say is true. Apart from dubious anecdotal evidence, is there any empirical data you can cite?

3 hours driving is a pretty long jump.

The right are intelligent? IIRC, it's the Republican states who have the higher COVID death rates. A $99 NFT is worth nothing, except to Trump. One has to buy a slew of them to get invited to a dinner with him catered by Maccas, assuming he honors that promise.

So are your put-downs, very unoriginal. Goodbye.

I order supplements online. I would never buy meds online, too risky. Some antibiotics can become quite dangerous past their use-by date.

My GF of 8 years is from Chiang Rai, after several attempts by Chiang Mai women to move to a more permanent footing.

Yes, even when. The ones that didn't get into it only got one shot. The ones that did were repeaters.

I got three stamps in my new passport when I took it to Immigration with the old one. TR 2014, NON-O 2014, NON-RE 2019. Plus a bigger stamp which had dates of 2010 and 2014. On that basis, I'd say you are the one that's wrong.

I agree with what you have said. In the post above. It does seem to be at odds with previous posts of yours, which state you pay your wife to pretend to love you, or your only interest when having sex is your own satisfaction. It does sound misogynistic to me. Personally, I enjoy sex more when the woman is satisfied too, maybe that's just me.

I could include Chiang Mai Erotic Gardens, if it is still going. There's an interesting collection of Thai proverbs in Thai and English at the Doi Saket temple. Chiang Rai is a jumping off point for so much more, Mae Sai markets, Phu Chi Fa, White Temple, Blue Temple, Black House, Doi Mae Salong, Doi Mae Mon, Chiang Saen Skywalk, the Mekong, Doi Chang and Wat Sang Kaew Phothiyan. I suppose with time Chiang Rai will become as congested as Chiang Mai.

My attitude to men who hit women, or use them selfishly for solely their own pleasure, is on record. Guilty as charged. I get along fine with most guys. IMO it would be a lot cheaper for misogynists to buy battery-operated inflatable rubber dolls. Plus a supply of KY. She's got bruises and is bleeding, to most people that denotes an assault. In terms of who did the damage, and in order of probability, I'll stick with Occam's razor.

Assuming your guess is correct, how does that justify an assault? Your attitude to women is well known on this forum, I'll leave it at that.

I don't count Loi Kroh grannies in my list of attractions.

Rest, ice, compression, elevation. I got relief from golfer's elbow with two sessions of acupuncture, that treatment may not suit everyone. If you are going to take an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen, short-term only. Longer term causes kidney damage.

No, I'm a Mexican myself ( south of the border, Melbourne ). If you Google "cheap car rentals Sydney" there will be half a dozen websites to choose from. Cars like a Suzuki Swift or Toyota Yaris.

There is something really sexy about a fit female in leotards. I find myself imagining what she would look like without them. Not competing myself, I know my limitations.

I would suggest to the OP losing weight will help with the BP. It makes sense, your heart and circulatory system has less of a burden on it. When I was put on telmisartan 6 years ago, my BP was 180/90. It is now 120/65, and the only medication which I take (co-incidentally for BPH) is 1 mg of Cardura. Perhaps the OP should consider swimming as an alternative to heavy weight training. Less risk of injury.

I moved from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai two and a half years ago. IMO CR is better. I agree with the OP, CM traffic is ridiculous now. CR has many more attractions. Doi Inthanon, Doi Suthep and San Kamphaeng hot springs - that's about it for CM.

Maybe the words I use will be too big for you.

AFAIK most countries demand 6 months validity on the current passport.

Seems to me you and other posters are making excuses for the inexcusable.

Quote my post in full if you are going to shoot the messenger. By restraint I meant the various holds I can use, not the S&M stuff. Don't bruise yourself jumping to conclusions. It's true alcohol removes inhibitions. Please explain how that also removes responsibility for one's actions.

With the current shortage of new vehicles in Oz, used cars are selling at ridiculous prices. A small rental in Sydney would be about $1000 a month, you are not going to get anything reliable secondhand for $3000.
