Why/why not? Genuinely want to know.

It really depends on what you think makes a good wife...

 

And there are so many distinct areas here in Thailand that have different types of women... so many variables... an older farang w/an Isaan farmer? A mature lady who is happy to have a caring husband? w/ or w/o resources... kindly? Drinks too much? 

 

From what i have seen, the larger factor is whether or not the husband makes a good husband and has an understanding and acceptance of the culture.. 

Are falangs smart?

Are falangs happy?

Are falangs religious?

Are falangs generous?

Are they good people?

Are they bad people?

 

Yes, I'm talking about like 1 billion people, but would like a "yes" or "no" answer.

 

makes sense.

I worked with many Filipinas and met many Thai women.

 

IMO Thais are generally slimmer and Filipinas speak better English. Other than that, I doubt there is any difference.

Generalizations are necessary and we use them all the time. But there's always someone like you who writes that.

 

Is it hard to make friends in Denmark? Generally, yes.

 

Do Brazilians like nightlife? Generally, yes.

 

Are North Koreans well-educated? Generally, no.

 

Why don't you take a walk through Compton, LA. at 2am telling yourself how you should never generalize.

Haikus are not supposed to be trite.

Heard some horror stories about Filipinas, Google Rose Porteous.

I suppose they do have an advantage over the Thai women in terms of being able to speak English. OTOH, from what I have heard the food is dreck.

"Do Filipinas make better wives than Thais?"

 

Same-Same...but different .......

I have experience dating both.

 

1) Educated middle class thais are warm, sweet and caring and loyal and show love

2) Farm girl pattaya thais are devoid of all emotions and dont even pretend to care

3) Educated Filipinas (Never met one) but we can flip (no pun intended) this to "Religious nut job" filos who can be studying science and suddenly ignore all that to put 3 potatos under a mat so world peace will come because their lola did it once

4) Bar girl (Manila, Bicol, Samar, Cebu filos are funny, cheesy, cute and loving but are money grubbing opportunists using their looks / personality to take everything

 

In summation option 1 is the only viable choice here based on my experience

If cooking good, tasty food is a Wife requirement, then Thailand over Philippines any day.

The Filipina accent drives me up the wall.

Start by defining what you think is a good wife.

Although I have no experience with Thai wives,

Culturally speaking, and generalizing a bit,

I would say that...

 

One Taiwan wife = Five wives from the Philippines, maybe six. 

 

One American wife = One-third of a Chinese wife.

 

One HK wife = two Chinese wives.

 

Three Philippine wives = One American wife.

 

One Kowloon wife = 0.8 Hong Kong wives.

 

Therefore, please solve the above equations to arrive at the correct answer.

Monogomous, traditional, obedient, 5'0 or less and under 100lb.

 

You know, the usual.

Obedient, what a joke.

Mr Nose, marry a Thai and if it does'nt work out, you can always marry a Filipino. Never try, never know!

When one gets married it is for richer or poorer, through sickness and health, till death do they part.

 

It's in all married peoples benefit whomever they marry to abide by those tenets and they will have a joyful life with their foreign partner.

There is some truth in that.

 

That Filipino accent though. Yikes.????  It's even worse when every other sentence is some kind of blessing from God.

 

And don't let any music start playing, they'll be dancing and singing Karaoke before you've had a chance to grab your jacket.

 

Not generalising though... ????

I used a Cray supercomputer and it spat out the answer:

 

The OP should try to marry Pansy Ho, the late Stanley Ho's daughter.

Yes, and Thai food is better than Filipina food IMO.

Now are Thai women sexier and more romantic than Filipinas?  I don't know that ...

"Do Filipinas make better wives than Thais?"

 

It depends which "profession" you're selecting them from.

When you say "horror show", did you actually mean horrorshow, like in Nadsat?

 

Because, in Nadsat, the term horrorshow means 'good'.

 

Please be very careful when slinging around these terms.

Thank you.

I worked with many Filipina nurses, but the only Filipina I'd have married was a hooker in Cyprus. She was gorgeous, charming and spoke perfect English.

Time wasn't right for a relationship so I passed on trying to see her again.

In short from my own personal experience:

 

1. Filipinas as wives = Horror stories -> I can confirm that

2. English speaking ability -> I can confirm that, but no wonder, English is one of the two official languages of the country, the other being Tagalog

3. Food = Confirmed, its terrible, at least compared to Thai food

 

Let me add

4. Security: Dangerous.

5. On the positive side: They have the best beaches and the clearest water I have ever seen. Much better than in Thailand. Generally.

 

Only my own experience over many years, but 2., 3. 4. and 5. I regard as a given.

 

P.S.: Interesting how you use the term "dreck". So not only many words find their way into the German language but as well the other way round.

I never met a Thai or a Filipina that was romantic.

I did meet a Filipina with the sexiest legs I've ever seen. Her gams should have been immortalised in Madame Tussaud's.

Does that make a difference?

You "passed on"?

 

And then, the Filipina nurse revived you?

Had loads of both,

Thai ladies are better at convincing me they really like me.

Filipino ladies are better company for an evening out.

 

Lots of very small Filipino girls, I had to set a lower weight limit (38Kg), never encountered that problem in Thailand.
