Not about sticking up. Because it's the truth. A straight guy attracted to trans women is still straight. Fact.

Yeah and you don’t speak for all the mostly straight guys who are attracted to trans women/LBs.

Who knew?

Because they're straight.

So a straight guy that enjoys a naughty finger is gay then, is he?

Was I? I doubt that.

I haven't made up any such words.

I'm not attracted to trans women / ladyboys, etc. in the slightest, dude. Because I'm 100 percent gay. I do give a second look to cute butch lesbians though. I realize these concepts are too sophisticated for many people though. Another case of willful ignorance.

You people? The rhetoric of ignorance and bigotry. Stay classy.

You simply don't get it.

Do some research on who is sexually attracted to trans women and who isn't and get back to me. Gay men almost NEVER are. I've never met even one who is Some straight men are. You can see them every day in Thailand. Bingo.

No

Gay men go for males that present as males. Trans women present as female. Those attracted to them are straight or possibly bi. It's not that complicated.

Not man. Transgender woman.

Such men are straight. Not mixed up.

The truth is it's almost impossible to separate the recreational part from the health part unless you're only using CBD and only CBD isn't good enough for many health purposes.

I have no idea what they're talking about. I recently visited a "Cannabis Health Festival" at Central Festival Mall Pattaya. It was quite large and I visited many booths to look at the products for sale. Not one vendor had a doctor on site. Not one vendor asked me what health ailment I was seeking help with. Talking to the vendors "health" wasn't mentioned even once. One nice clearly baked guy did suggest his favorite strain with advertised effects -- MAKE HAPPY. Come on man. This is a farce. Like "illegal" prostitution. Not complaining but all this posing is ridiculous. BTW -- I do find a great health benefit from cannabis. Almost total relief from chronic lower back pain. I would be very bummed out if they recriminalize cannabis here.

It's obviously because they want to make it easier for foreigners who have that close a connection to Thai people to be able to stay. Retirees can live here with no connection to Thai people. It's a social engineering policy which I think almost all governments do in many spheres of life.

Indeed. A humane option which of course they won't do is to allow retired expats to buy into the Thai national health system at a multiple cost.

Yes. But there is something to be said for leaving some things up to the imagination. I was forced to try this sport (ever so badly) in junior high gym class. Not my cup of tea to actually do.

Why stop there?

I want to say thank you for all the responses. I definitely learned more about the BB secured credit card here and I assume others who might be interested have as well. This forum can be really great for this kind of function and quite often very quickly as well (as has happened in this case).

OK. Perhaps this isn't a problem for you but what IF comprehensive health insurance is added to the visa requirements for that? I'm sure there is nothing in the contract to say that isn't possible as after all that would be an immigration decision and they can do anything they want.

I knew something was up when my youtube algorithm starting pushing Greco-Roman wrestling vids on the daily. I tried to resist watching, not wanting the old algorithm to get too much of the wrong idea (I do have many other interests such as the Russia-Ukraine war), but of course I couldn't resist occasionally having a peek. Also, they seem to feature thumbnails with the biggest bulges shamelessly calling out to a certain kind of audience. I realize many of the athletes are gay or bi, but it somehow feels a wee bit wrong to perv too much on their enthusiastic "innocent" competitive endeavors. So, again could Greco-Roman wrestling possibly be any gayer?

I don't get it. 200K isn't enough for visa qualification for anything I'm aware of. But clearly different people have different needs. My visa account is at SCB and I if I need more than 50K credit for a trip, I can just add whatever amount I need to the credit account.
