Shot a few years ago.

Just a grab shot but speaks volumes methinks ?

Well, considering the "female" in the shot looks more like a ladyboy, thats quite an assumption you are making there. Could be she's just wondering if its really a girl or not.

Oooh, a bowl of milk for you!

Believe me, no ladyboy - I married her!

a lovely "grabbed shot" , razor sharp focussing and wonderfully expressive faces.

Just repeating the comment my female Thai staffer made when she saw the photo. Apologies to your wife for the mistake. But, it is interesting the assumptions you make when you see the photograph and the assumptions I make isn't it? Perhaps you should open your mind a tad more towards other possibilites than your own preconceived prejudices

Anyway, other than the idea that the photo represents something to you, it is an interesting shot.

c'mon there sbk , isnt that a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.

you made your own assumptions about that photo too.

Sorry for the hijack but these attitudes are most annoying. Only time I ever bring up something similar is to rebut someone's preconceived notions, to show that perhaps that all it is is preconceived notions. I get just as annoyed by the ones who assume that all farang guys are with bargirls, so don't take it personally.

I'll let you get back to your critique now. Sorry!

Vulcan,

from the photo your Mrs looks more Latino than Thai to me - at least at first glance - J-Lo.

To tell you the truth, my first impression was that the two farangs (you??? and the other woman) were together and the Thai girl had jumped the queue (J-Lo is famous for it ), hence the look. Looks to me like the farang women is about to make a comment and has been caught as she started to speak (possibly under her breath).

Good picture though, ask ten peoplhe what is happeneing and get ten different answers.

I'm not convinced the Farang woman is even looking at the Thai lady. I guess that would depend on how much space is between her and the guy, which is hard to determine in a 2-D image. She could be fighting with the desire provoked by the food in the cabinet. Not that I'm assuming anything, you understand.

What “assumptions” did I make when arriving at my “preconceived prejudices”, or precisely where did I reveal my “preconceived notions”?

“Opening my mind a tad more to other possibilities” maybe I saw the following scenarios when deciding on the title of “ENVY”

1) I wish I had 4 fingers like everyone else

2) I wish I was as tall as these two to reach the counter

3) My stomach is killing me, I’d love something to eat but alas my diet…….

4) I wish I could read this bloody menu, it’s all in Thai

You see, sometimes a picture tells a thousand lies!

But then - It’s all in the mind.

Stick with the title "ENVY"

It one of the funniest pictures I've seen in a while. Thanks for posting it.

Maybe you did. Perhaps I was misreading you. But perhaps, given the opinions expressed on this forum by some men, I was not. Anyway, apologies were already given for hijacking your thread. I retire from this thread and leave you to your "envy"
