Alpha84 Posted August 21, 2024 Posted August 21, 2024 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? 3 1

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. 1 1
Popular Post Gsxrnz Posted August 21, 2024 Popular Post Posted August 21, 2024 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. 2 2 7

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