Video: Thais lay into inappropriate "Coyotes" doing farewell dance at temple funeral

Picture: Sanook

 

A video showed four women doing what was described as a sexy dance to taped music at the funeral of a friend.

 

They were thought to be "coyotes" and were seeing off a friend who had died in front of the crematorium. 

 

Two had shorts on - dress normally deemed inappropriate at a temple. 

 

Sanook reported that reaction from Thais was almost universally damning. 

 

They quoted one post that claimed the dancers looked like they were glad their friend had passed away - that comment had received 855 likes. 

 

Another comment said that the friend would have gone to heaven - but when Yommaban (the keeper of the Thai underworld) saw this dance he would drag them down to eternal suffering in hell. 

 

Others commented on the inappropriate dress of two of the mourners.

 

Sanook said they were in tears during their farewell dance in front of the crematorium structure before the body of their friend was cremated.

    I would say the person who wrote this comment is way more morally bankrupt than some girls doing a dance in shorts

  • Judging an incident in isolation.   Impossible to know what is going on without looking at the bigger picture of who the funeral was for and their connection to the group of girls. Too

Because, it could lead to a monk disrobing.

If this was so inappropriate then why weren't they stopped unless of course the family of the deceased had asked for them to do it .

Too many possible senarios.

 

It may have been a last request !

My guess is she's the one almost wearing the blue shorts.????

I guess this is why all the bar girls are always praying so much.

 

I thought it was so i would marry them. :cheesy:

Hypocrites.

Some of the best, dirtiest dancing i have ever seen in my life, anywhere in the world, has been inside temple grounds in Thailand.

The same people who think it's acceptable to have a hotel room with a Hitler-motif.

Coyotes .! Will they have to be on that new dog/cat registration thing ..

thailand land of the inconsistencies

 

or perhaps a hub

 

we are so considerate and kind and good hearted

 

yet we are happy to run you over if you dare step foot in the road when we are driving

 

or if you do something inappropriate at a temple

 

or if you die on a boat and bring our questionable safety standards to globasl meida attention.

 

Time to bring back the "don't Thai to me"

I'm up for dancing at my temple roasting, but I told Mrs. Tong that I would like lots of twerking.

Convenient place to die, at least she didn’t have to travel far. 

Don't just shaking it around the air, do something with it...

 Was the deceased male or female?

Thais were damning Thais for the dancing...

 

 

oh well - nothing to do with us, we don't know anything

 

 

but, in 20 years time, they'll be back, on their knees begging in front of the Monk; for him to give them good luck, to keep on getting bookings   

 

 

I want people to have fun at my funeral not be sad , good dancing. 

Maybe it was the deceased last wish or in the will.... 

As usual not enough information :coffee1:

 

Didn’t see what the Nationality of the deceased was. In North China 

this is common so even with strippers a celebration for the deceased. Also draws more attendees.... seriously
