One who hasn't opened her legs for every Tom, DICK and Harry perhaps? One who is more moral and doesn't want a disease to threaten her life and health. One who doesn't like others gossiping about her like she's some prostitute. One who values a long term, more permanent relationship where you grow closer, than one where usually just the man gets off and the woman's left high and dry. Or one who looks at you as your right name and not just another John.

Since you mentioned research and didn't mention where, you might research more to understand why humans need a diet with vegetables and fruits. There are reasons some food act as waste. That's what fiber is for and here are some reasons................https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/fiber/art-20043983

God made everything, so to me he has the power to make anything more, but chooses to be discreet so we go by faith. If there were many gods, they would be competing for attention, like politicians, and miracles would happen daily with their name on it. Just a thought.

I've lived in gyms for the last 50 years, with the exception of part time now here in Thailand because the gym opens at 2 PM and it's a tad inconvenient to go that late, with driving 30 kilos each way, although it's becoming necessary because that's the only choice I have. I trained people for over 16 years, and was in as good shape as anyone in those gyms, including many of the drug users. These clubs were in New Jersey and Texas, and most of them weren't cheap, with a few high dollar. Women like Bob describes were all the same as women everywhere else. They look for money and looks, or power in a man, with looks third for many. Women, no matter how intelligent, are still very naive about men. They look for the model types, although these types are the first ones to cheat on them because of their narcissistic attitudes. If I can have one 10, I can have them all. They're actually right because of this woman ignorance. They think these men will actually stay after sex, although most will, like most men, leave. It was hard for me to date many of them because I wasn't wealthy, although I had a much better body than those they chose who had more dinero. One example is Halle Berry, a woman I consider to be at the top as far as looks. She has been married three times, and her first two cheated on her. Stupid to me because if you have a 10, you do anything to keep her, as long as she's not nuts. No matter what gym you go to, this will happen. Most will ignore you if you try and start a conversation, unless you study them awhile and try and figure out what they like, just by appearing there and their habits, books chosen, music listened to, etc. But if you're well off, and you show it by your choice of clothes consistently, or they see you get in an expensive car, you have a better chance the average man won't. Look at the videos of gold diggers and you'll see the reality.

Christianity is a religion but doesn't demand money. People can tithe if they want to........ Is it necessary to pay tithes? God has given Christians the wonderful gift of tithing. It will help us remember that all belongs to God; it will help us establish order in our finances; it will help us support the church; it will help us prosper. We do not have to tithe to be righteous. ...........................................Of course we should worship our creator. He made everything so common sense he would know what laws are necessary to prevent chaos. People defy him and hurt others because humans have free will, a condition that shows we aren't slaves and can choose our destiny. I don't like a lot of the things on earth and question why some are here, but simply, we are only here for 100 or so years or less, and that's nothing compared to forever. Why he allows things that are evil to happen, and let's people who are evil to run rampant and are ruining the Earth, another question why. Some things, like flies, mosquitoes, gnats, ticks, black flies, and the like are way too populated, more than needed so to speak. He could have made mosquitoes not carry malaria, yellow fever and dengue, so why? We could all have lived 1000 years and then gone on to heaven, as we would be convinced he existed and was loving towards us, and 1000 years is a long time to live without boredom eventually. He could have made earth as big as Jupiter and it wouldn't be over populated beyond sustenance, which Earth is coming to quickly. People invented many gods but if that were the case they would all be in competition, and we would see evidence of this. Sometimes I hate him, but I know he's in charge. Earth has many things that are wonderful, and a lot of us enjoy them, although not for long enough, and some never enjoy them so to me that's wrong. If paradise is much better than all of this with no pain, then that's the reason sh*t happens so much here.

Guess you never lived there. Is it somehow uncivilized to protect your family using any means, not taking sh*t from anyone, standing up for yourself and the rights of all, including women, standing up for other foreigners when they are trashed by ignorant, prejudiced child-like adults, or wanting peace by any means? Townie see, townie do? You mean like all of the people here who gang up on others 5 against 1, like the rioters in big cities in the US? Happens worldwide it seems.

No pain, just allergic to bulls*it.

I'm as far from gullible as you are from having a clue to what I am. I could last 50 years and more here if I chose to, but I will leave because it's not a good place to raise my daughter. I grew up in New Jersey, with a New York City area influence, and I'm thinking you don't understand what that means. It means we don't take sh*t from anyone, and always pay back those who have wronged us, no matter where we live. I learned all of the lessons I need in life in my first few years living there, and that's something you will never get. What I wrote is dead on as far as him thinking ratting out other foreigners is a smart thing. You do that you'll pay. It's none of his business, and if you're standing by what he said, I'm suspicious of your thinking also. I have no Agatha Christie books on my shelf, whatever you mean by that. I see Papillon, To Kill a Mockingbird and the Bible on my computer desk. Snap out of what? Reality? Try telling a foreigner he's a scumbag deadbeat and see where it gets you, at least the ones who aren't too old to remember payback. I'm thinking you aren't a farang by your remarks. If you are, that's pretty sad, and that makes you just like him.

I suppose my comment is somehow wrong? I don't need no stinkin chill pills.

No, actually the worse thing is some officials looking the other way, or worse paid off while locals are involved in the trafficking of women, girls and boys for sex, and forced labor on fishing vessels. There aren't as many "scumbag, deadbeat foreigners" as you think, and crime is rampant here daily mostly on locals. Proof is and always has been there if you look, or aren't a brown noser that thinks sticking up for them brings you anything. Daily road deaths is also one of the worse things, as is how women and girls are looked at as inferior, due to generations of religious thinking. I could go on, but we aren't talking about negatives but worse things. As far as the OP's post, it seems he has a grudge against foreigners, but is one, which is pretty sad. Others have mentioned it's none of his business unless it affects him personally, and it doesn't. He wants to be a rat, and you do know what happens to people who rat. And supporting prostitution is illegal also, as others have mentioned, so tread lightly because some other farang might call the number on you.

Some of the comments here I would expect from teenagers, but not retired expats who should have been with a few women in their time, and not drool over an average looking body that is on it's way to being a chubby. I'm thinking, think about it before you post your inner thoughts, because most men my age wouldn't comment on a public forum what they're thinking. In their minds okay, because everyone lusts after young(er) women. I know most will never meet here, and we don't really know them unless you do, and even then, but it does make us look like the sexpats they think we all are. Some of us have girlfriends and wives and respect them. Women are not tits, butts and legs. If you think so, you're a very sad older man that's never grown beyond physically. And I'm not near a prude but I do respect women. I do expect a flood of childish comments so that will also point out the immature.

Nowhere near as many Thais are singled out, because most don't have the money to pay bribes and or fines. I knew of this before I moved here and have seen it daily for over 6 years on the roads. I see thousands of locals not wearing helmets, driving underage, speeding, reckless driving, careless driving, all past police and they aren't pulled over. I do of course see check points where many are stopped, but I don't see the outcome and only go by what I hear from locals and friends here. Police in America aren't pulling people over and bribing them. You have no idea what you're saying. Police have body and car cams that record everything and I've never heard in 62 years of any taking bribes for moving violations. Of course it happened, but rarely. And Asians aren't singled out in any event by police because they would be called out for it. I get daily news worldwide and hear word of mouth by friends and relatives what goes on back home.

Here foreigners are singled out, for money or prejudice. In America, you are pulled over if you break a law, no matter what your nationality or race. People that break driving laws aren't necessarily idiots, unless they are risking their or others lives by driving drunk, way over the speed limit, or recklessly.

I'm guessing they don't realize that this forum and all news in Thailand is broadcasted to other countries, both online and by word of mouth, letting them know what goes on here. Tourism will continue to drop and hate crimes will continue to rise because of this information. Over a million Thais live in other countries and when people are targeted because of being a foreigner in Thailand, news travels fast.https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-family-on-scooter-in-fishing-village-andaman-coast-thailand-17666638.html?imageid=6619579D-A514-48EF-8098-85A0479090BF&p=10330&pn=1&searchId=32a9e17394f1b301d35a4f3d8750a0d4&searchtype=0

Actually, all I've been in, which is most, didn't allow blocking others cars in or you'll be towed. My point is, it's not only illegal in most places, but stupid, as people blocking others in are inconsiderate and lazy. Someone might need to get into their car for an appointment or emergency and what happens when you can't find the owner and you can't push their car out of the way?

And another reason so many leave.

America for one, and I'm guessing most others have laws against blocking people in. Pretty much a common sense thing, and sticking up for people breaking the law or inhibiting others from being able to move their cars when they want to is called brown nosing when you're in another country than your own.

I don't like it for many reasons, and many are the lack of enforcement of laws. Are you actually sticking up for behavior that makes things harder for others?

It isn't an opinion but a fact. I didn't say he was guilty or innocent. I'm fully aware of what goes on in this sort of instance.

Which is idiotic because when you have to leave, and maybe in an emergency, somebody is blocking you so you can't. Another moronic third world fact that other countries have laws for.

When, and only when, something affects the rich or politicians will they do something about it. Living in an air conditioned life makes it easier to not care about what's going on around you. This goes for anyone living here. Thinking this is a warm , sunny paradise and hiding from it most of the day doesn't make sense. When you can go outside and not worry about pollution is when you can really enjoy the outdoors. There are ways to get the burning stopped that have already been introduced elsewhere. Paying a fine when you break the law is the best deterrent, especially if you aren't wealthy. Same goes for traffic laws and regulations that are ignored.

I'm thinking park in an area, legally, so you aren't blocking other vehicles. Or am I missing something?

When those involved in human trafficking are given hard sentences and fines. When corrupt officials who let this happen are arrested and jailed, fined. When judges who are paid off to let them continue are arrested ,jailed and fined. Human slavery is higher now than ever before. There are reasons for this increase and they all involve money. When an official is put into jail for years this might slow down. ................https://www.ilo.org/global/about-the-ilo/newsroom/news/WCMS_855019/lang--en/index.htm

How is this man a foster father if his mother is also there? This means step father, and sadly, one of the ones most likely to assault , abuse and molest children. Of course most step parents aren't like this. Severe physical abuse and multiple injuries are discipline. They are abuse, and a mother that allows this isn't a mother but a perp also. Physical abuse is rampant here and a lot of it goes unpunished. I see moms carrying sticks and hitting their kids when they get out of line. What is it with using weapons here? A population of cowards who don't understand or care how to raise their children in a non violent manner? This is something learned through generations.
