    Before you correct someone you should actually get your facts right otherwise it makes you look like a complete plonker..


    https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1127372/

     

    evidence from over 40 studies which shows that male circumcision provides significant protection against HIV infection; circumcised males are two to eight times less likely to become infected with HIV.2 Furthermore, circumcision also protects against other sexually transmitted infections, such as syphilis and gonorrhoea,3,4 and since people who have a sexually transmitted infection are two to five times more likely to become infected with HIV,5 circumcision may be even more protective.

     

     

    Regardless, systematic studies find women generally prefer circumcised men, across all cultures, even in cultures where it is not the norm. The most prominent reasons stated are that they find it more attractive, they appreciate the greater hygiene, and increased sexual pleasure.

    Besides having some medical and hygienic benefits, a circumcised penis is more attractive. There is a survey that given a choice, 89% of girls preferred a circumcised penis, and only 11% prefer an uncircumcised penis

     

     

     

     

     

    I agree you are a "plonker". You obviously get asked many times whether you're cut or not, maybe because you have some sort of illness, or you look ill.

    Now "plonker", anyone can find studies for and against circumcision-and again, it's obvious you do not know how to wash yourself and keep yourself clean, hence your parents decided you needed to be cut. Now run along "plonker".

    While some argue that neonatal circumcision offers certain benefits, pediatricians like the RACP generally acknowledge that the evidence supporting routine circumcision for non-medical reasons is not strong and the risks outweigh the potential benefits. Many major medical organizations do not recommend it, and some have even concluded that the risks outweigh the benefits. 
     
    Here's a more detailed look:
    • Lack of strong evidence:
      Studies have found that routine circumcision does not significantly reduce the risk of sexually transmitted diseases or other health problems later in life. 
       
    • Potential risks:
      While complications are rare, they can occur, and the procedure can cause pain and potentially have long-lasting psychological effects

      You are no doubt suffering long-lasting psychological effects. This is borne out by your posts.

    Late November.... I wonder if the Pattaya Fireworks Festival, being so lucrative for hotels etc, impacts on you trying to book a monthly deal. 

    I don't know, but it seems it's very difficult to find a room for long stay. 51k for a month is a 'bit' over the top...especially booking in advance.

  3. I am looking for monthly rental hotel or apartment, anywhere around Soi 3 4 or 5, or anywhere near Nova Gold, Nova Park, KTK, that area if anyone has any suggestions. I am looking at late November this year. 
    KTK offered me 1,700 a day, and in the past when I stayed there they gave me monthly rates, but for some reason they say they can't offer monthly rates at that time, and the 1,700 which worked out to be 51,000 a month was a "discounted rate". Staff there are always difficult to deal with.
    Looking for a place with a nice pool and some sort of fitness centre inside.
    Any suggestions appreciated, thank you.

  4. I dgaf what country someone is from, and it doesn't matter what part of the world it is, if you're eating in a restaurant and trying to slink off without paying your bill, you're scum. It is becoming a regular occurrence in Thailand. Well done to the katoeys for giving the individual a pounding, it's deserved if the alleged behaviour is confirmed. The scum should have his/her visa cancelled with a no entry to Thailand for 5 years.

    I would be happy in Trump would only matter in the USA. They deserve him. But unfortunately, the rest of the world is also very much affected by the decision of the American people and most of the rest of the world despises Trump. 

    Leftists are pompous and condescending, the quoted comment is proof of same.

    There is zero evidence to support this preposterous claim that "most of the rest of the world despises Trump".

    The problem seems that you are mentioning the company name yet again, which is not allowed. As I commented previously, seems the mods only allow you to mention the soi it is in, as per the PM warning I got for mentioning a company name in another thread, we are only allowed to   "Share information but NO NAMES"

    It isn't a fact. If you scroll up the page you can verify that it is not the case at all, there are even links to a company in this specific 'industry' posted.

    "Travelling is a privilege, not a right."

     

    No, it's not a privilege - it is a form of transportation which has been paid for  by the individual concerned. I just hope that he has to pay the same amount - or more for the replacement flight as he missed the original one.

    It's actually a privilege. Many people in the world never get to go outside their own countries, many can't even afford a passport. However, YOU can pay for the 'transportation', just not everyone, and when some do pay for a ticket to travel they behave like imbeciles or disrespect the country where they have travelled to.

  8. An interesting discussion. Why would it take a week, did you only just open your account with Wise?
    It appears that Western Union has improved their exchange rates and are not shaving the rates as much as they used to for their commission. The only thing with Wise is that they have an option of sending different currencies as opposed to Western Union which I do not believe have that option of a foreign currency account.

    Difficult to find a good coffee shop that actually has soy milk. 

    It seems it's too hard to go and buy soy.. standard answer is "no hab"

    Starbucks my favourite at the moment.....price irrelevant. 

    Milk comes from cows, there is no such thing as "soy milk", that is fraud perpetrated by the manufacturers of that 'drink' made from soy.

    SB does give you a proper size cup of coffee, about 3X the size of most vendors, thus priced accordingly.  

    SB coffee is rubbish, the prices are rubbish as well. I wouldn't drink it if I was paid.

    Not quite correct Sid.....   Professionals are playing far more than 3x per week...    they are playing a lot while they are training. 

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I was referring specifically to matches. Of course they are training nearly every day at the higher levels, but not 3 matches per week. For sure, recovery from any physical activity as you age is much more difficult.

    Age matters significantly.....     I can't play a full 90 mins of full on football anymore 3x per week anymore...   I break a lot more easily than I used to and am having to significantly change my outgoing attitude towards physical sports....  (two operations from sporting Injures in the past 12 months !!!).

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Even professionals do not play 3 times a week.

    Furthermore, you can be injured by dirty butchers playing football at anytime. eg. I had my leg broken purposely by an aforementioned butcher because I scored a goal and it was a big final. Some injuries you don't recover from, you're just functional but not the same.
