I have lived in both countries & lived with/dated in both countries..... Regular women, along with women of education & accomplishment.... The one caveat is I have never been in the bar scene or gone with a bar girl in either country so I cannot comment from that angle.....I probably missed out on some fun - and probably avoided a sh*tload of trouble.... The Philippines alone would be enough to default away from a Filipina..... I've also had Filipina/Filipino guests here in Thailand for weeks at a time = not one wanted to return to the Philippines....To them, this looked & felt like heaven.... The reasons are myriad....I posted them in great detail a few times waaay in the past & I'm just not going to write another book sized response..... Let the buyer beware (and aware)...... 2 1

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 think my favorite German word is schadenfreude. Not that I am into it myself. 1

So not to sterotype but out of a population of 70 odd million in Thailand and 100 million in the phillos, outside of food they are all the same? ????????????????

ThailandRyan Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 9 hours ago, GammaGlobulin said: 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. You left out the lovely ladies from Myanmar in your determinate breakdown...
Mentors65 Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 If someone likes to run to a Catholic Church very often, then a Filipina is a good choice... 1

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..

KIngsofisaan Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 Anyone that states that have experience because they dated 1 or 2 of each is full of it. There is no way a person can generalize two entire populations of women with such a small sample. I seriously wonder about these folks that thinks they are an expert on women after dating 1 or 2?
Brian Nose Posted August 10, 2022 Author Posted August 10, 2022 12 hours ago, GammaGlobulin said: 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. You're absolutely right. It was viddy careless of 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. I had a girl down to 37kg once. Most peculiar. What's the lowest you found and the shortest?

arithai12 Posted August 10, 2022 Posted August 10, 2022 15 hours ago, Brian Nose said: 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. "Is it hard to make friends in Denmark?" is a clear question, generalized of course but well defined. Both you and I will agree what it means to make friends. "Do Filipinas make better wives than Thais?" is an undefined question, because most likely you and I will NOT agree on what it means to be a better wife. Now ask yourself this question (well defined): would you choose a Filipina over a Thai based on the answers in this forum, or would you use your own judgement?
