Koreans are unbelievably nationalistic and will go on for hours about their amazing country and culture. Oh, and don't forget the Brits who bring arrogance to a whole new level. Wow, bashing other nationalities is easy and fun. Thanks for turning me on to this mindless way of thinking. You beat me to it, Korea and Japan think they are superior to everyone. If you've spent any time there or known any of their citizens you will know what I am talking about. The Thais pale in a comparison in their belief of uniqueness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, it's a part of the human condition. But it is like custard - it's lumpy. If you go to USA or Thailand you get more lumps. Never noticed any difference. People are people.

If you don't visit, you can't tell if you love it or hate it. One man's meat is another man's poison, some hate the Thai characteristics, others feel right at home. Depends what you're used to and how high you set the bar. Edited May 23, 2018 by KiwiKiwi 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Yes very unique indeed! For harboring so much of people who hate it! Yes, no other country would come close to it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well true but if you hated it you don't go back or post on a Thai forum. If you hated yoga would you post on a yoga forum just to express hate? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you could simply Google "how to make sticky rice w/mango", and save yourself a lot of money. ? Will those tourists give the impression of contentment with a look of wonder and bliss or an idiot with a vacant grin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katipo Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 The "Thainess" they speak of is are idealised traits that exists only in the minds of those leaders who don't actually exhibit them, and now in travel brochures and videos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 1 hour ago, KiwiKiwi said: Ir was a euphemism. Nothing healthy about AIDS or STD, or having to wear a condom because you don't trust the women to be clean. Perhaps I'm just old. Perhaps jaded would be a more suitable adjective. It is possible to have sex without needing to wear a condom. That's all the information you're going to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all the information you're going to get. Jaded? No. And that's all the information I need or want. If you're married and have both had a HIV test, then there's only pox, clap. HPV chlamydia and a few others to worry about. If you've known her and been together exclusively for 10 years, then you ought to be safe, otherwise, look for unexplained absences, lots of shopping trips and demands for money, they're all indicators of a Thai 'husband' in the mix. Having a foreigner as an atm and a Thai man as a stud is common practice in Thailand, smiled upon by mums, dads, brothers, sisters and others who may be looking for a gratis motorcycle to crash. I suppose the word stud is a variable, given that Durex have to make a small size for Asian men. And the word for today is... 'amoral'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best English speaking people on this planet live in Isaan and work as English teachers, usually at government schools. 2. People here never lie. ( They could lose face if they did.) Anyway, it's better if you don't know all. 3. Thailand must have the most balcony bungee jumping activities in the world. 4. All Thai girls and women love us, foreigners, too much. 5. The educational system is so good that not even one students yet failed in 250 years. Bamboo sticks are used to have more fun in learning how to march. In the beginning, there's only the educational hub, then the medical, now the article 4 hub of a little, unsatisfied and mentally underdeveloped soldier. 7. The former so skinny and sooo ugly girls become bigger and softer and rounder and rounder. like the American counterparts. And we can save a lot of money for pillows. 8. You can live here over 20 years, and they still let you do all the fun stuff to get another visa and work permit for another year in paradise with more and more documents that are fun to fill out. 9. Prizes of almost all have skyrocketed, but good luck that we don't have the burden to have too much money. 10. Only foreigners are allowed to pay more to get into a national park, a swimming pool, or a morgue. 11. A joke's hunting us, too many people now try to move around to feel safe. 12. There's so much Formalin in squid and some meat that we can use it for free, should something happen to us, or a relative. 13. People who told you to fix something at your house turn up a month later to give you more time to enjoy this country. 14. We may build houses for ten different Thai women at the same time, but if they tell us that we are not allowed on their land, we can't go into our houses and don't see them with their brothers in, or on our beds. 15. The beauties here don't care if we are old, fat, ugly, stupid and bold. They love us how we are. Oops, I think it's time to stop here before P. visits me with TAT. Come in Pinocchio, our Mum's calling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
