Thailand isn't a perfect paradise for LGBTQIA+, but is one Hell of a lot better than most countries. If you don't like being in a country like Thailand, where LGBTQIA+ people are accepted, then I suggest you find another country to live in. What is I and A?

youreavinalaff Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Without knowing the OP and his partner, I would be slightly concrerned about the extroverted personality. I have no qualms or disdain for anyone in the LGBTQ community. I have friends and family that are LGBTQ. What I don't agree with, I know many others who agree with me including those with in the LGBTQ community, is the promotion of the community from those within it. PRIDE marches, wearing rainbow hats or t-shirts, flying the PRIDE flag. Calling for, not equal rights but, more rights. If the OP wants to tell everyone he is gay, how proud he is to be gay, how he has gay rights, etc, he may have problems. If he keeps his private life to himself, as most of us do as we never see "Proud to be straight" or "Proud to be married to a woman" marches, I'm sure he'll be fine. The creation of sub communities is what's causing the animosity, in my opinion. If we all accepted we were different, accepted others were different but lived together without expressing ourselves as different, the world would be a happier place. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgegeorgia Posted November 8, 2023 Author Share Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) Yes unfortunately I'm a introvert, but some people like Kevin do go to these expats clubs meetings .....but Udon is not Pattaya! The expats would not be the same , ( my assumption)so you see Kevin turning up at a Isaan Expats Club meeting with his floral shirt , holding hands with his Thai boyfriend, the thing he doesn't do and I have spoke openly to him about is kiss his BF in public 👨❤️💋👨 I don't like that , I don't even like watching straight couples kiss in front of me !!! But my perception is ,unlike Pattaya expats is , Isaan Expats would be more "conservative" , is that the word? I remember him saying he went to a expat community in Duamagette Philippines and he bumped into American Bible thumping expats there !😂 Edited November 8, 2023 by georgegeorgia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know of some living up there, so at least a few. They seems to have been fully accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a bit of a racist thing to say. Actually, it's far more likely the word "Farang" comes from the Persian word "Farangi". The name given to the Francs during their crusades. The first recorded Farang in Thailand were the Portuguese. To say the word "Farang" comes from "Francais" would be a quite few hundred years out of date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could even go as far to say White Europeans as the word likely dates back to the Crusades. Adding "Dam/Dum" changes the meaning to "Black Farang".
