Bald, Fat, Sweaty, Hairy, Old, and Boring

[Alpha84]

Let's say that you fit in with some of the physical stereotypes about the types of unappealing looking foreigners that come to Thailand. 

Then let's say you want to come to Thailand on your own to have a nice holiday and just relax in hotels, travel around, have some good meals, etc. 
 

How will you be treated by the locals? Will they treat you nicely, even if you look far from being Tom Cruise?

They dont care how you look all that matters to them is your money

Which locals will that be then? Do tourists ever associate with more than the people they meet as part of their jobs? Part of their job is to be polite to everyone.

 

Are you imagining that Joe Bloggs, tourist, will be meeting non hooker girls for fun times? Does Joe Bloggs speak Thai?

Hookers don't care what you look like, as long as you pay.

Don't wear a wife-beater, especially a beer branded one. Don't grow your thinning hair unfashionably long, and dye it jet black.  Don't wear socks, especially black socks and sandals.

 

Instant promotion to hansum man.

They will also try to fix you up with their sister / daughter / ex-wife / current wife  / mother / next-door buffalo

I guess its not really your looks that matter. The treatment you get will solely depend on your own behavior,

You look like Tom Cruise?

[KannikaP]

You are not meant to describe yourself in the headline.

That goes in your personal profile.

Finding it hard to understand why looking like the back end of a bus can possibly make the locals not want to serve you at a restaurant, make travel harder or make relaxing by the pool harder

Bald, fat, sweaty, old and boring.

 

 

And those are just his good points!

You will be treated according to the way you act and respect others.

Service staff are paid to serve all paying customers. If they don't, I would expect them to lose their jobs.

 

If I'm selling something my only concern is if the potential buyer has the money to pay for it.

That does not mean you can be disrespectful to them.

Hey,

 

Just come.  If your lucky maybe you will meet a nice young lady on your first visit to a bar.

Sorry, don't understand your point.

When I purchase something respect/disrespect is not a part of the buying process.

 

"Hi, how much is that, I'll take two, thanks"

 

See what I mean?

If you would have checked the latest photos of Tom Cruise you would be happy to see that you look nicer than him.

I would take it as an insult if someone would compare me with Tom Cruise.🤗
