  1. Hi. We have moved back to the UK and still have some personal belongings in Thailand (CM) that we would like to get back to the UK. 

     

    It's mostly personal stuff like our record collection, hi fi system and clothes. 

     

    Any recommendations for a comoany to use? 

     

    We are in no hurry for it to arrive, so they can be slow.  Also, I wonderd if cost is on crate size or weight?

    Poor girls, the only reason they would have  to do that is that they have a deadbeat husband. Known in Thailand as "Farang  kee nok".

     

    My money,  is my wife's money.

    Maybe sometimes.  

     

    But a couple of ladies i knew used the money for secret gambling.  I suspext you would not want your wife to use your money for that. 

     

    Another one was just greedy and used it to buy expensice stuff and show it off while partying with her friends. She though it was funny to scam her dumb husband.  He used to give her plenty of money anyway.

  3. You are traumatised by the way your parents raised you. 

     

    Changing your name will do nothing to change those feelings.

     

    All the stress into changing your name and passports etc is not going to help your mental health or make you feel any better once you do it. 

     

    You are not a child now and are independent from your parents and have your own life. 

     

    You have an advantage over many people in  having duel nationality. Britain has many good things to offer, so has thailand. 

     

    Better use of your time would be to go and get some therapy to talk about your problems and get better mental health.  

     

    You can't delete your past by simply changing your name.

    I've met plenty of women who don't want men who wear dresses using their spaces, or competing against women in sport. 

    We probably mix in different circles. 

    Yes. I mix with normal open minded rational people, who dont have crazy religious or poliical views, and who treat their fellow human beings with respect and kindness.

    How many women did you ask to reach this conclusion? 2...200...2000?

    Or are you saying that because you're gay you know what all women think? 

    Are you serious? 

     

    If that is your argument the how do you know women don't want trans people to use their toilets.... Have I you asked the entire population of women?  

     

    I'm telling you that I, in many years, have never met a single woman who said they had a problem with trans people using their toilets lol. 

     

    I think the percentage that have an issue with it is very small. 

     

    I bet your own Thai woman does not care of a ladyboy goes into the ladies toilets.

    You might want to ask women about that. If they mind sharing their bathrooms with men.  Or if parents mind their daughters using the same bathrooms as men, even though they are wearing woman-face.


    Sports is another area with genuine consequences.  Scholarships, sponsorships, and championships are at stake. Letting men compete with women is another blow to women's rights and another shrinking of spaces that have been carved out for women.   Funny how there is never any problem the other way, wonder why. 

    As a gay man I found wonen don't care if gay men or trans use the ladies bathroom.  

     

    They are quite happy to chat together at the mirror as they adjust their make up or do their hair. 

     

    They have a problem with straight men using their bathroom. And the reason is not becasue they fear the straight man will attack them....its rather that most straight men, especially if they have had some drinks, are filthy and will pee all over the place and stink the bathroom out.

    There is nothing stopping you, if you meet the visa requirements.

     

    Much the same as living in Thailand.

    Yes. The bleeding visa requirements are stopping me. 

     

    Before, it was totally easy.  I don't want to be going to immigration, filling in forms, investing large sums of cash, be forced to live in a certain place or buy a property at a certain value. 

     

    I could have simply arrived there, got any job, lived and travelled anywhere in EU, no visa, no immigration, no faffing about, and I could stay as long as I wanted, and come and go as I pleased.

    I don't have dogs in Thailand, but in America I fed my dogs the canned dog food that they preferred, which was made from meat. While dogs are classified as omnivores, they are, in reality, carnivores by choice. If no other food source were available, they would eat food derived from plants, but they'd be much happier eating meat. Whoever heard of a vegetarian or vegan dog?

     

    And, yes, factory farming is a crime against the animals that are forced to be subjected to it. But, of course, the vast majority of those animals are fed to people, not pampered pets. Pets have very limited choices in what they can eat, unlike people. If more people stopped eating meat, the factory farming system would undergo radical changes in a very short period of time. Don't blame pets for factory farming; blame people who feel they cannot live without consuming meat. 

    So... Go and buy live rabbits and Guinea pigs to throw for dog to kill and eat.  That way you eliminate the cruelty of factory farming.

     

    Double standards if you feed killed animals to your pets but say people are cruel to eat animals. 

     

    Humans are also omnivores naturally...same as chimps....

    Wow!!! Over half a century without meat. Congratulations. Your longevity is a testament to the benefits one can experience being meat free. And, yes, the hypocrisy of animal lovers who eat meat is appalling. I've known a significant number of animal lovers in my life, but only a few vegetarians and even fewer vegans. Sad to say, but the vast majority of people in the world will be eating meat until they draw their last breaths.  

    So, you don't feed your dogs meat? 

     

    Yoi don't care about the cows, chickens and other animals that are factory farmed, transported in crowded conditions, and killed in a slaughter house.....just to make food for your pampered pets? 

     

    It amazes me the vegetarians or vegans that keep pets that eat meat.

  10. If a backward place like Thailand won't allow illegal immigrants in, how can Europe and the UK not stop them? 

     

    Genuine asylum seekers should be allowed, but this huge influx of illegals needs to stop. 

     

    It's got crazy now, and will only get worse.  Countries can not cope with the strain on resources all these new people bring. 

     

    How about arresting all that come. Keep them in huge detention centers with the same conditions of a Thai prosion... and use them as forced free workers?  Don't let them out ever unless they can raise enough money for trip back to their country. ....that might deter further ones arriving. 

     

    Honestly, the way it's going now, Europe may as well just do away with immigration and let anyone in..

    What a lot of nonsense. In the past, gays were discriminated against. They aren't anymore and rightly reach lofty heights in government and industry. 

     

    It's true that none of my gay friends are whining activists with chips on their shoulders, who harp on about obsolete injustices. But then again, who would want to associate with negative people like that? 

    Well, maybe you have formed your own little bubble around you, and are wearing blinkers, if you can't see that there is still much discrimination against LGBQ people.

     

    Why not ask your gay pals what they think about the steep rise in homophobic attacks in the UK or America?

     

    Or, how about the countries they are barred from going for work or holidays,  unless they wish to run the risk of being imprisoned or exicuted? 

     

    Or, are they are fine that Thailand will not recognise their marital status if they come here and they need legal decisions to be made of one of them is hospitalised or dies, or even to just apply for a marriage visa? 

     

    Online bullying and abuse is even worse for LGBQ people, together with higher suicides, depression and mental illness. Does that come out of equality in society?

    I do not find greed in my family, and I do respekt the way to talk and behave around this.

     

    Doesn't mean I have to go temple and do everything they do for holidays rituals, I just being respectful around the family against my wife, as they are to me.

     

    When it comes to Internal problems in Thailand, it's out of my reach, but for immigration I put on a poll or shirt, pants and shoes. 

     

    So far I have only experience once with my yellow book, and paid pocket money to have it all done in 2 hours. And that's the first and last time I ever paid any money to officials.

     

    For the last yellow book and I'd card, no pocket money.

    So, how long have you lived in thailand so far? ????

    My gay friends and colleagues are completely integrated into the rest of society. I like them, and I drink with them after work. Is the fact that they're ordinary people the reason why you say that  they must be imaginary, so that you can call me something that I'm not?

     

    Why is it necessary for you that gays are exhibitionists who wave rainbow flags around and wiggle their bums at children? How very odd.

    They are 'integrated into society'?   What..like rehabilated ex criminals?! Are you serious?!  

     

    So which gays are not intergrated into society exactly?  The ones that are too camp or the kind that wear skimpy shorts or make up? 

     

    You just  comfortable with the straight acting ones that will not stand out as gay and make you feel embarrassed to be seen with them?

    So does the World Wide Web! Should that also be banned?

    They would love that. Next it will be black out blinds on the windows when a rainbow appears in the sky.  

     

    They want the kids to have bibles in school which contains stories of genocide, mass murder, rape, how to manage your slaves, underage sex, incest and animal cruelty etc....but are horrified the darling children might read a story book with a gay penguin in it lol.

    Pass legislation to allow same-sex couple to marry.  That will bring them.  The daughter of good friends of mine has been living with her girl-friend for over a decade.  I'm sure they would come here if they could get a legal marriage. 

    They would make a lot of cash from 'travel to paradise Thailand and have an expsnsive over the top gay wedding on the tropical beach'

     

    They are missing out not allowing gay marriage. It would bring jobs and lots of money.
