rabas Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 2 hours ago, fredwiggy said: No, this is true in Thailand. In other countries, if a Thai woman lives there, she was either born there or moved there to work or be with a husband. If she left her husband, she has been introduced to other nationalities and especially if she is still living there and working, and has her own money, she will meet others based on attraction. She might still be attracted to Thai men living there, or anyone else for that matter. When a Thai woman is independent, she will usually choose her own kind. Sorry, you missed my point. I was agreeing except that: In Thailand, virtually all Thai men treat women very poorly. Thus, many Thai women (not bar girls) eventually gravitate to foreigners because they will be treated better. 1 1

From what I've seen myself in 6 years here, it's pretty much right on. Discrimination is ,and has been inbred for centuries here.

This what many (non bar) Thai women have explained to me for nearly 40 years. This is also the prevailing experience of my broad Thai family over decades. Woman good man bad. Any your evidence is?

Sex selection, honor killings, exchange marriages, female circumcision, wife kidnapping, and acid throwing, which are cited in the article as examples of discrimination women in these countries are forced to endure are relatively uncommon in Thailand.

I don't know if Thai men are inherently worse than western men, or if Thailand's lack of cultural and legal penalties for treating women poorly makes it easier for them to be a**holes. But I agree that it results in a lot of Thai women writing off Thai men and either deciding to make a life on their own or seek a foreign partner. Some of these women are attractive in every way--pretty, intelligent, responsible, charming... Defective western men shouldn't get their hopes up. Thai women with standards want a decent western man, not an alcoholic, drug addict, philanderer, jealous control freak, etc. That eliminates a lot of men who come to Thailand looking for a partner. Thai women are tolerant of, or perhaps accustomed to, Momma's boys; the men who want/need a woman to take care of them like Mommy did. There are also a lot of western men like that in Thailand.

So its only the 10 percent I see driving around in new cars, eating in restruants or buying property? Yeah, and the ones who look poor actually own a home, car, and many rai of land. Their net worth is at least 1-2 million plus - this goes for virtually every household in farming communities That's not poor; they just don't have much liquidity. Now compare that to the average "rich" farang English teacher on 35k a month, living paycheck to paycheck. It's all smoke n mirrors. Edited June 30, 2023 by FruitPudding
