It's because women universally see men as animals not worthy of their time if a female is around. The only thing a man is good for in their eyes is to be an owned slave, an ATM.. .  The manipulated man is a good read on the topic of how women view men .. 

I feel for you man, it is not easy to be an outcast! With little effort, you could change your life, but Im afraid it is to late. Good luck

Truth is painful to swallow I know.  Don't bother reading or listening to the book (free on y tube), just react defensively w/ your 'feelings'... lolz

Interested to know if Thai men have the same issue. Maybe it's not a racial thing.

it's not. It's a gender thing.. generally speaking.  I noticed in the US how women treat men vs how they treat women in the same environment. It's not at all the same.  It's really not any more subtle here either.  It's not the change from a meal, it's your entire life they give to any nearby woman if possible. lolz

The problem is your attitude. Change that and you might live relaxed and peacefully and maybe Thais will give you the change. Otherwise think about that plane home. It will improve not only your life but also the lives of many Thais and non-Thai-hating foreigners in this beautiful country.

If only everyone was more like you. ..um.. someone who makes a lot of assumptions.

Actually its they who  are working  as service staff with foreigners who need cultural sensitivity  awareness  and training  as part of  their job. Respecting cultural  values is a two way street. Historicaly some Thais have a mindset  that  learning  a foreign  language or respecting a foreign  culture is similar  to being invaded. There is a strong resistance to doing things the western  way. Ignorant obstinacy is part of the Thai  mind set and has help preserve their culture but also  held them  back. Its kept  them ignorant and angry.

I met a young lady at Chula University that was working to learn her 5th language, not counting Thai!  She spoke very good English.  She had less of a Thai accent when speaking English than my wife does, who has lived in the U.S. of A. since 1991!

Then there was the other young woman who spoke English with an accent from Arkansas.   No Thai accent at all!   She had never been outside of Thailand.  Her English instructor, working at Chula University was from Arkansas!

Or why not have a budget f;r your wife, a monthly budget if you can afford it that is..._

Than you will have no problem, no need to be worrying....

There is always the odd tall Chinaman.. Yao Ming for example. But generally speaking, men are viewed as slaves by women.  The book is written by a woman, and she was threatened because of it.  If you have a female in the house, a peek at wiki is likely all you could get away with.. ????  They don't really want men listening to that book...  The better the income, the better the slave..  No income & must find a new slave.

I don't get what your wife having 3 businesses (as you claim) has to do with anything... ????

Soooo a guy with 46 posts is giving me a lecture. 5555555555555

with only 45 posts he is far more likely to have a life than you are.

 

If we are going to gatekeep, however, to my recollection you aren't even here.

 

perhaps its time to stop living in the past.

I speak Thai pretty well and once they realise that, I find many are happy to chat.

And a few really don't want to understand you.

 

At [South American Jungle] Coffeeshop...

 

Me: Ao expesso yen wan noi krap

 

Worker: Ao Latte mai

 

Me: Mai chai Ao expesso yen wan noi krap

 

Worker: Ao Cappuccino mai

 

Me: Mai chai.  Khun put passa Thai dai mai 

 

Weirdly enough, I got severe diarrhea and joot joot'd 11 times after I drank that espresso yen and had to go to the emergency room and get antibiotics.

 

I'm sure it was just a coincidence. ????

even the maid ahahahaa, how posh

What's posh about having a maid in a country where they're so inexpensive? I admit the terminology is a bit 'Upstairs Downstairs' - maybe a home help would sound better?
