His bravest moment was when Gemini 8 went into a violent roll while docked with the Aegon.

Sane issues occur in the UK but from different epistemes.

The fire alarm went off at my apartment block and nobody could switch it off. The fire brigade arrived and switched it off. They said we were lucky there was no real emergency or else they could not have come for several hours. I mentioned that nobody knew the code. They would not give it for health and safety reasons.

Eventually, I extracted the code off him by telling him I would turn it off only if I was certain there was no fire, and that I was a volunteer police officer.

Any ideas for good Indian desserts. I found lots of sellers in Butterworths, but never seen anything worth a dabble in Bangkok.

The last 2 pages of the thread revolves around the conflation of meanings in the word 'normal'.

Simply because something is what the majority does, does not necessarily make it what is right or natural. The implicit meaning of natural in the word normal is creating the 2 pages of tension. This is a very famous point done to death in philosophy.

Yet there is more to it. The assumption made is that unlike 'gay'--since this thread manifestly proves this point--the word 'straight' is conceptually at some core level definable to find the majority of people fall within it....

The vanilla sex implied in 'straight' is an extreme minority sport. Most want more; they want to fondle breasts, or play with whips or fist, or whatever.... But they are disciplined by extraordinary levels of social norms to at least appear to be 'straight'.

And this brings us back to ladyboys.... If the male desire is towards cute looks and soft whiteskin, and not focused on the genitalia, then the ladyboy is a perfect target. If the genitalia comes first then a beached whale in Bradford is preferable.

Nuffink. My missus will most likely peg out before me. And for the rest of the world it will be just the same as it is now, who the hell is GarryP.

That`s the same for most of us.

I'm nobody! Who are you?

Are you nobody, too?

Then there's a pair of us -don't tell!

They'd banish us, you know.

How dreary to be somebody! How public, like a frog To tell your name the livelong day To an admiring bog!

OP: It's only fair to ask how you met your Thai wife in Australia, circumstances, what was her background prior to you meeting her? e.g. had she been sponsored to Australia by someone else prior to you meeting her etc

EDIT: The forum members, if they wish to do so, can then analyse, dissect & comment on your relationship as all the other threads have done on this topic - over to you...

She grew up in a convent ( so thoroughly opposite to me) And she was an english teacher. I was introduced to her through friends of mine.We have been together coming on seven years now

So let me get this straight. Your Thai wife who you met in Australia grew up in a convent in Thailand became an English teacher. And you have been together 7 years after being introduced by friends.

Is that all correct?

Why. How was she in Australia?

sent from my Wellcom A90+

That's easy to answer: she was teaching him English.

There is no way it is fungus. Hives is almost certain.you perhaps should get your liver checked out.

that my friend is the first answer to the question that i have had

So can we now say that it is a bisexual act for men to have sex with ladyboys or women

just like it would be if they had sex with men or women.

There is no other word in the dictionary that can be used.

Gay is men with men.

Straight is men with women.

Lesbian is women with women.

Amen.

gynemimetophilia

Simply because the word exists in the dictionary does not enhance the 'truthiness' of a topic. If it was so, rather than reading David Hume, I would look up 'cause' in the dictionary.

They are so unbeautiful...

Fig.1 an unbeautiful ladyboy

They are so uncute....

Fig.2 invite ladyboy (on the left)

The narrative they are girls trapped in boys bodies may apply for the most feminine in character, but many are simply ' boys trapped in boys bodies'-- read that twice. They simply prefer to live lives as girls...

As for the men who like them, it is precisely -- for some-- that they have *no interest* in genitalia that allows them to desire the ladyboy. They are men who adore women's secondary sexual characteristics-- the breasts and the wide hips and the soft skin....--- and not a slobbering, dog-like obsession with the female genitalia.

And to conceptualise, the ladyboy, along with hyper-effeminate boys represent high-order substitutes for young women, that are an interesting breach on the female cartel of sexual access. Far from creating bisexuality, they offer an escape valve for basically straight men.

It is hives

The heat rash is part of the symptoms. The contact with chlorine initiated the response.

If you start responding with hayfever medicine as soon as the attacks break out you'll be ok.

Do not go close to chlorine for at least 6 months... So no swimming in pools.

Let's keep this thread serious.

There is only one other thread I found on looking for large condoms and that was about Pattaya and degenerated into a pub forum thread.

Where are the long condoms to be found. The short ones tend to get lost inside....

I see there are some non-latex condoms described as L size at Boots but they only are L size for their origin country of Japan.

There must be somewhere in Bangkok... Surely.

Thank you in advance.

The heat induces the attacks. The cold shower stopping it is exactly what I would expect. Check the details on chronic urticaria...

It is definitely 'Hives'. It is an overresponse of your body's immune system that can go on for months or years. I bet you get scratch-like marks on your forehead or stomach, and maybe mounds.

Anyway, research it more in the online Merck dictionary.

Your welcome.

Wow. What a wierdo !

I think we should show greater sympathy:

"Delusional disorder, previously called paranoid disorder, is a type of serious mental illness involving psychosis. Psychosis is the inability to tell what is real from what is imagined. The main feature of delusional disorder is the presence of delusions -- unshakable beliefs in something untrue. People with delusional disorder experience non-bizarre delusions, which involve situations that could occur in real life, such as being followed, poisoned, deceived, conspired against, or loved from a distance. These delusions usually involve the misinterpretation of perceptions or experiences. In reality, however, the situations are either not true at all or highly exaggerated."

Obviously, she needs help although not the help she thinks she needs. Obviously, no manner of assistance from forum members will get her this help. And obviously, despite being a lawyer, I offer not one word of legal advice.

She appears, thankfully, to have moved on from this forum. She is reinforcing the unfortunate 'silence of the lambs' public perception of transgendered people.

I just hope her family were ultimately able to help her.

Contract or not it os of course better to pay 700 Thb at Cwow than 2000 at Ftiness first that might close sooner or later anyway :-)

I just hope that Cwow is not stupid enough to ask people to have 700 Thb automaticallu taken from their bank account every month ? The best way to make sure that nobody will trust them enough to allow them to withdraw this money every month...

But if 700 Thb must be paid at the desk, maybe ok.

It is highly unlikely Fitness First will go out of business as it's an international chain with branches in many countries. It has slowly built up it's number of branches in Bangkok, and they are all well-maintained. The branch in Landmark Hotel, Terminal 21, and Central Rama 9 are top notch.

Of course, it is expensive, but you can get promotions for 1500 baht a month.

The advantages of FF over CaWOW Experience

1) Better maintained equipment which is not crammed too close together.

2) Locker rooms with air con and more space.

3) No cheesy slogans such as "Where the superstars workout", and "The World's No 1 Fitness Centres!"

4) Music is not too loud, so you can actually have a peaceful workout, or listen to your own music without blowing your ear-drums out. No horrendous house music either.

5) Less agressive sales staff.

6) Fewer fruitcakes lurking around in the locker room and toilets

7) Haven't closed any locations in Thailand.

Cons:

Higher price (although CA Fitness will probably start charging new members a similar amount)

I am not sure about # 6 there, but for the rest of your pros, I would agree with you. However, for a con, the equipment they do have is lower quality, and the variety of equipment is smaller than CaliWow. Sure, the environment seems better, but the bottom line was what you can do when you are there.

But as I am in Thonburi, CaliWow is not an option. Fitness First is not good enough. I just wish I could find an option for workweek nights where I could get a decent workout without having to drive to Sathorn (where I have a great free gym at which I can exercise.)

Colonel, have you checked out the numerous hospitals in Thonburi e.g. Thonburi 2 hospital. Any of them might have a decent fitness centre....

I've already checked out the hotels and there is nothing out there.... Except maybe the ultra high-end ones on the river bank...

My MP3s from internet:

$0 in Thailand

$150,000,000 in United States

If you can demonstrate fraud then the corporate veil falls away and suddenly 'Dr' Levine's Phuket mansion will enter your refund pool.

When I got my lifetime membership it was discounted to 9,000 baht (down 1,000) if I promised to date one of 6 sales rep girls at Siam paragon that day.

I wonder to this day if my discount is unique....

Colonel, did you chat to him like this:

Google has a traffic density configuration. Check out the archive version.

Still amazes me that it knows instantly the traffic on the road outside my room-- how does it know?

* cadburys fruit & nut

* tetley tea/ Yorkshire tea

* Extreme cheddar cheese

It is a puddle of water that sits stagnant all year round... I am sure they hatch in their thousands from it.

Perhaps I should point out the pizza place the Thais *love*. It tastes incredible and is always full despite now moving to a bizarre location.

I forget its name but-- concentrate-- is situated near Khao San, across from Sanam Luang on the North side of the off road on the road that leads to Phra Pinklao and running on to Pra Arthit. It is next to a Korean hostel. Walk 3 minutes from khao san. It is the road with the National Gallery.

The Japanese used to say westerners smelt 'batta kusai' (stinking of butter). Apparently, those of us that eat dairy products stink but we can't smell it.... Of course, the Japanese now eat lots of dairy products so they are no longer afflicted by our smell...

...I wonder if there is something like this with Indians, more than westerners can smell of Indians.... We don't know we don't know...

You prompted me to find out who is behind these fantastic new versions of classic works. Turns out it is an ex oxford philosophy prof.

I wonder if he takes requests...

What would you like to request?

How about Hobbes' Leviathan or Behemoth.

Classic works. Did you request them with the Oxford Prof?

No. I want to think what I really want to read. I'll read Hume' history of England vol. 1, and if that is unreadable then I'll know what to request...
