Is it one rule for them and another rule for us?

[spidermike007]

Dark is beautiful. White is boring. Obviously some of us might feel that way, but the reality is that beauty is so incredibly subjective and opinions mean little. The opioion of that blazing fool  meant absolutely less than zero!

Anyone who limits himself to one color means he's getting half as much (or even less) than those of us who love them all. It's like a box of mixed chocolates, why choose one when you can try so many different kinds?

I agree that beauty is highly subjective, however there is definitely a pattern/difference with how farang and thai men date women. Farangs usually go for the tanned bar girl type whilst thai men prefer the fair skinned office lady type.

 

I know that sounds like a gross generalization but that has definitely been my experience whilst living in Thailand - and the longer I live here the more I find the white skinned, long haired nose job beauties more attractive than their brown counterparts.

[it is what it is]

 

haha, idiots in every country, use your common sense and don;t engage.

 

if you're not smart enough to ignore such people then don;t make the mistake of spouting inaccurate generalisations.

bob, if you go to the girly bars where the locals go, there are no tanned bar girls. Anyway, this whole discussion is really pretty pathetic at its core. One type of skin color isn't better than the other, nor is one any worse than the other. It all comes down to what somebody finds attractive. And to each his own. I barely find any Asian women physically attractive anymore, unless they are of a certain minimum height, weight, and physical fitness. But at this point, we're just talking about superficiality. A lot of the times the women that I end up being most attracted to are not necessarily ones that I'm physically attracted to because it eventually comes down to other things. Personality, integrity, character, compatibility, sexuality, etc.

Yesterday at the bar I got into a heated debate with a local thai man. He was adamant that farangs aren't allowed to find fair skinned thai women attractive and that we must stick to the brown variety.

 

I couldn't believe my ears and neither could he when I told him that I no longer find darker skinned thai women all that attractive.

My tastes have evolved since moving here and he wasn't happy about that.

 

Seems we farangs (at least in the eyes of thai men) should only date who they think we should be dating. Anything else is unacceptable and incomprehensible to the thai male. I explained that attraction is subjective and can evolve over time but he was having none of it and stood firm..

 

I think it goes without saying that I won't be taking his advice and will go for what I am attracted to, not what some washed up old Thai bloke thinks I should be attracted to!

Pure crap. 

 

Go to local hotels that host hookers and watch the beeline of motorbikes ridden by Thai men who drop them off and pick them up after they have been banged by foreigners. 

 

Hypocrites.

She is severely overweight, smells like my armpit, eats like a horse, farts and belches all day, looks like she hit every branch when she fell out of the ugly tree but she has an amazing personality...

That's a fact. And the truth is most of them will take anything they can get. They all talk a good story about white skinned girls, but the majority of the ones I see with their girlfriends around town are often very overweight, dark skinned women that I don't find attractive at all, not because of their skin color, but because of their general physical appearance.

Thanks, but I already have mrs. smith's LINE and she texts me for a booty call every time you go down to Soi 6/1. Why don't you ever sort her out first before you go out riding pogo sticks?

Why would you try to explain such things to anyone who says "[race] are only allowed to do X"?  Why do you even want to talk to people like that?

With that logic, why limit yourself to one gender. You should try all of them.

Very sad.  Try another country.  Thailand is actually fairly unique for SEA in terms of hating foreigners.

So you purposefully chose to like light and dark skinned women?

Many of them have tried to pigeonhole me over the years about women and my tastes in women, while assuming I'm only attracted to dark skinned Thai women. So I try on all kinds of fake responses because it's really none of their business anyway what I like.
 

I often start out by saying I'm married already, which is a lie. But then they'll ask me if I'm married to a Thai woman. If I answer yes, they'll ask me where she's from. And I'll say Chiang Mai. That normally ends the discussion. Or sometimes I say I'm not married to a Thai, but a foreigner. That also ends the discussion pretty quickly. 

One time I was in a taxi and really didn't feel like participating in the usual interview about my tastes in women. So I told the Thai taxi driver that I don't like women. And then he said "oh, I know this really good new gay bar". Then I laughed and said "I'm not really gay". He got really embarrassed and went quiet after that. Try that next time. It works well.

I'm an equal opportunity employer. I actually don't even notice skin color. I only need to be attracted to their appearance.

I think it's more cultural.  They brought up and educated to think this way.

So, if you didn't choose it, why do you speak like others do?

Correct. I only like chocolate women, but I don't care if it's light, dark, or in between.

Thanks for the advice. Never considered that. Do share some of your personal photos with captions of what you are suggesting to give me a better understanding.

So Colin from Dorset, who just arrived speaks good enough Thai to have a heated argument with a local Thai. Sorry Bob but you're falling to the same old habits in your stories. The BS factor.

What really does my head in is when you tell them you have a thai wife/gf/gik or whatever and they automatically assume she's from Isan.

 

That really rubs me the wrong way and I have had several confrontations with local men, mostly taxi drivers, on that basis over the years.
