[Hakuna Matata]

I do agree 100% with this guy's opinion.

Bang on the money. I keep saying this time and time again, yet so many foreigners here remain incredibly delusional and seem to think that most Thai women are going to fall at their feet. It's mostly only the poorer Thai women who want to marry a farang in order to improve their lives. The truth is, the majority of Thai womwen would much rather just date a Thai man, or even the likes of Korean guys which would be far higher up on their list. 

 

Maybe it depends on how much money they have?

Yes of course, women naturally tend to date up, and Thai women are no exception to the rule.

Train wrecks and Heart Throb Heros:

They usually pick out either end of the spectrum to be on these shows.  Then they line up the girls that would hate or love the type they centering the show on.

That's what makes good (reality) TV...and unfortunately "news".

I can't understand what he says, but he was put up there to be a villain from the start for ratings.

Guarantee he a good looking Thai and wealthy and 20 plus shake their head in agreement with his principles lol, or whatever the  current type heart throb is.  Or at least try and slip their number to him after lol.

And btw, you can't say the guy is wrong.  He's telling you what he's looking for in a partner and what he likes and is honest about it.  That's how you find your matches and not pretending to be what they want and then doing what you want anyways

I agree. I'd go as far as saying that they purposely choose a more liberal/left-wing leaning group of girls in order to stir controversy.  Fruthermore, he wasn't in any way disrespectful. He came in and was very honest about his views and what he expected from a relationship, which says a lot more than many men who would just say anything in order to get in the girls' pants.

You are right there, it's absolute trash.

This is the same guy 

Maybe the title of the video needs to be chnaged to "I wantd to become Thai Guy, but I got voted out"

Well sure they rejected him.

Sounded like any other Thai or Asian dude.

I expect many members are now awaiting AN to issue blackouts.

Some real sensitive and chauvinistic posters who would have been given a blackout on the show as well.  Thais watch a lot of things which you guys do not.  If you were to spend just 30 minutes watching such shows you might learn something.

A little  sensitive today darling ?

Watched the video with keen interest.

 

Observations...

 

20 out of the 30 women dropped out almost immediately after the initial introduction and greeting, long before he started voicing his chauvinistic views. They gave reasons like "I don't like the way he talks", "he shook my hand too hard" It looks like the contestants had a chance to meet one another before the show was taped, so maybe they had a chance to size the guy up beforehand.

 

Interesting that his Thai language skills seemed to have almost worked against him. He was able to communicate very effectively, but the women seemed to really be turned off by his controlling behavior. It started with him saying he didn't like it when the woman listened to loud music, which seemed to really turn off almost all the women, sort of an "anti-sanook" vibe.

 

Even though his Thai was very fluent and colloquial, in my opinion, it was rather working or lower class and did not have the hallmarks of being from a well-to-do family. He didn't have that polite, soft-spoken, considered delivery that many Thai women seem to find attractive. Because of this, I have a suspicion that there may have been a bias against him as being the off-spring of a foreign father who had a liaison with a sex-worker.

 

If anyone wants to study what Thai female body language looks like when they don't like what they're hearing, go to the 31 minute mark of the video. It's quite educational.

 

But what I found most interesting was how universally his chauvinistic attitudes went over like a lead balloon. I keep hearing on this forum how Thai women are submissive and eager to wait on their man hand and foot. It's simply not true. That guy would be branded as immature, and almost a scary psycho control freak by the vast majority of Thai women I've ever encountered. I suppose there might be a few women out there who might find his demeanor attractive, but they're few and far between. I can't think of any local women I know who would put up with that type of behavior.

Good summary.

This is also a bit of a myth. While maybe par for the course in certain overly touristy places—and that ‘normal’ Thai women there wouldn’t want the stigma—once you speak the language and have genuine Thai, typically middle class friends, it opens up all sorts of avenues. Many Thai women are also sick of the Thai male polygamous nature of which this guy alludes to.

You have to have a few kangaroos loose in the top paddock if you're a foreigner who wants to become Thai. That's some next-level self-hate.

I don't have a TV since 20 years, I see such discussion and people who think that is real life and think that is all absurd. Also Covid was complete different without TV

[klauskunkel]

He is only 22. Chances are: little understanding of life or relationships. He is probably just touting the view points of others, or what he saw online... I doubt he came by this philosophy thru his own life experience.

Some level of sophistication with Andrew Tate I'd missed?

[Plern]

He's not especially erudite but seems to have his reality in order. I've not seen or watched anything of either him nor the contestant women.

 

I imagine the women were some of the most temperamental, narcissistic, self absorbed "ladies" in Thailand.

 

The irony of course is that he's described what most beautiful women marry. 

 

Everybody thinks he's a big loser. I would contend quite the opposite. While he lost those dozen miserable women I bet there's a million other Thai women that would be perfectly satisfied with the guy. But his phone is ringing since forever.

 

I absolutely loathe reality shows. The new genre is social media which is absolutely toxic. I spent the last week or so on tick tock it was shocking. This show is just an extension of outlandish internet social media. This show is a type of social media in the internet sense.

Yup. Japanese women have it worse especially given level of intelligence and education. Oh well.

 

At the end of the day they can either fall in line or not that is their choice. If an attractive woman decides not to that's fine she stuck supporting herself on a meager Thai salary. If she were to opt for marriage she would be often cared for in whole or in part. She would have children and a home and a family!

 

Women have been sold a complete crock of <deleted>. The entire fabric of society is being ripped apart. It's happening worldwide. Total collapse of human civilization. This is also why this whole green bullshiit is just bullshiit.

Take note all the farang guys who say Thai women prefer farang. 

Most thai women prefer there own countryman. Same as every country in the world.

10 dropped out at first. Not 20. So he had 20 left. 

[Enoon]

 

It's "entertainment".

 

He played the role exactly as scripted.

 

Everybody did.

 

 

[Metapod]

so many bitter old losers and cucks on here. the guy is right and i guarantee he has no issues getting women in bkk.

 

you put women on camera and give them a position of power (they can turn him down but he cant turn them down) and you are going to have some uppity bitches that wouldn't typically get a second look from this guy. the other factor is putting girls in a group always changes the male/female dynamic as girls always allign and don't like to stick out or go against the grain.

I stand corrected. I mistook the second round (where 20 had dropped out) for the first round.
