Boo Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 After taking into account the views expressed by the ladies & gentlemen of thai visa & the results of the previous poll, I think a name change would be a good idea. I don't think it should change too much as new posters might not find us but a little bit of a tweak to include a welcome all women ( & gentlemen ) I have only put a few choices there as I think they include all of the search engine requirements & the following will be the sub heading, which will be more specific; A place for all farang, thai & expat women to ask/give advice, make friends, chat & discuss women related issues/probems in Thailand. Everyone is welcome to post & all opinions are welcome but please read the Thai Visa terms of service & keep it friendly. (or something like that, anything I've missed???)

Bluecat Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 I like better the third one, women in Thailand,... That's why I voted for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbk Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 I voted for the 3rd option as well. But don't you think you should have included "Chicks in Thailand" as an option too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Mee Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 How about "Girls Gone Wild" in Thailand! ...maybe some wet T-shirt contests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluecat Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 Boo, how many votes do you need? Because we can not vote twice. So, it could take ages before deciding,... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aranya Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I'd select the third choice... so is this forum going to change its name or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTa Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I'd select the third choice... so is this forum going to change its name or not? I don't think so or it would have been done already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donna Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I voted for the third one. Jai yen yen, ladies. It will be done. After all, it's Saturday night. I'm sure Boo has better things to do(?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouse Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 When I ask my 4 year old daughter if I am farang or Thai she always says Thairang. Has a good ring to it and it's easy to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p1p Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 "Women in Thailand - For Farang, Thai & Expat women" seems to have won. A good choice, but I would prefer to see it simplified to "Forum For Farang, Thai & Expat Women." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_Pat_Pong Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 82 per cent is a pretty strong vote Boo. But it is your forum. Follow your heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTa Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 "Women in Thailand - For Farang, Thai & Expat women" seems to have won. A good choice, but I would prefer to see it simplified to "Forum For Farang, Thai & Expat Women." Nice one. It is indeed similar to the one chosen by the majority but sounds better.

shopgurl Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 I'm fine with any of the above, honestly I did have my hesitations at first before posting in this forum since I didn't really know whether to consider myself a farang or not? Being thai but raised in the states, would that make you a farang? Is the term farang only to be used with appearance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being thai but raised in the states, would that make you a farang? Is the term farang only to be used with appearance? According to my dog Scruffy, that would make you a farang! He is afraid of foreigners (all foreigners not just farang) but is very friendly to Thais. We had two Thai girls from Chonburi stay at the resort and he was as friendly as could be. Then a Thai girl who had grown up in the US came and he wouldn't go near her. Somehow, he can tell. I suspect that you wouldn't pass the Scruffy test, shopgurl!

britmaveric Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Women in Thailand - For Farang, Thai & Expat women is good. I might add that man does have female chromosone, thus wouldnt help if you made it ladies only! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katyb Posted September 28, 2004 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Have always been fond of the old adage “if it ain’t broke...” I think I'm with you, Nat. I probably shouldn't comment as I've only just found your forum, but I was pleased to find 'Farang Girls in Thailand' today. From a first opinion, it does what it says on the tin and has a slightly more approachable and friendly air about it than any of the other options. Having read many of the threads here for the first time during the last hour, I think it's the perfect name. Is there a reason why you want to change it? (Sorry if I missed that).
