I was just wondering, as I came across another topic that had been discussed only a matter of days ago.... Is there anything else left to discuss?

A Thai version of Francis Fukiyama's "End of History"

He spoke too soon as well!

Apart from Thai news clippings, Thai politics, Thai government regulation changes affecting expats, p1ssups in Pattaya, stories of love and fortune lost, nasty illnesses, good/cr@p food, good/cr@p restaurants etc etc......................

.............................no.

How about: How has Thailand and being here made you a better person; changed/improved/enriched your life, taught you things, made you appreciate life and living?

good try but wont go well with the cynics

What about "THE GHOST OF PATTAYA"

........... Is there anything else left to discuss?

Yes: the growth speed of grass in the shade per 24 hours...

and: the growth speed of grass in the sun per 24 hours...

Is there anything left to discuss?

I would say most subjects are up for grabs, everything being in a state of flux means subjects that have been "done to death" can take on a whole new flavour with each change. Visas are a pretty good example, also what is "old hat' for some is unknown territory for newcomers. Some of these lack the computer skills to make full use of the wonderous search facilities available, others maybe just too lazy.

Half the time I don't know what the Flux going on, so a rehash of subjects is and probably will always be enlightening to somebody.

Well it has been bloody hot lately, with occasional showers.....

No, please close the door behind you...

OK, How about this for starters?

70% of Thai women cannot achieve orgasm[/size]

A recent global sex survey found that 70 per cent of Thai women cannot achieve orgasm.

Others reach orgasm through masturbation or having sex with another woman, while 79 per cent of Thai men climax during sex, according to research by condom manufacturer Durex.

The survey was conducted in 26 countries and questioned 26,000 respondents about their sexual behaviour and attitudes.

It revealed that 54 per cent of Thai couples cannot reach orgasm, while Italians, Spanish, Mexicans and South Africans are the most likely to climax almost every time, at 66 per cent. Only 24 per cent of Chinese couples achieve orgasm and the Japanese recorded 27 per cent.

Sexologist Dr Pansak Sugkrakroek says most Thai women cannot reach orgasm because their partners do not know how to help them.

"They just care about themselves," he says. "Making love is a kind of art that they have to learn so that they can help their partners."

Pansak says some couples end relationships because they cannot help each other to reach orgasm.

Taking more time can have a significant impact on the quality of orgasms. Those Thais fully satisfied with the intensity of their orgasms spend on average 3.9 more minutes on foreplay than those who are not, he adds.

"Even though orgasms are not the be all and end all of sex, regularly achieving them improves emotional and overall wellbeing, as well as a bond with a partner. It can also help to reduce life's stresses. Ideally, people should try to have orgasms regularly," he says.

However, he suggests women should not fake orgasms because it could lead to conflict if partners discover the woman is not being sincere.

He advises couples to learn how to improve their relationship rather than focus on orgasms.

It's not the lack of new topics, it's the endless supply of know-it-alls, aspiring immigrants, and of course folks who can't let go of the LOS.

Any particular category for you, Heng?

It's a bit like asking whether any more new music can possibly be written, if all's been said in the world of fiction or is it possible to still have a surprise past the age of, say, fifty.

I expect to be surprised by something every day, to learn something new, to have some cherished opinion overturned. I think that I should pretty much give-up if that wasn't the case.

Yes, there's plenty left to discuss. There always will be.

This one hasnt been done before.

Only 79%? I don't believe it!

I had a thai gal express her opinion based on the best of her knowledge, "do you know why men go with russian women?"

I answered, "no why?"

"Becuase they do it front and back."

Moderation policies?

How about a discussion of the asymptotic behavior of solutions of a fourth order nonlinear differential equation and their impact on the price of beer in Jenny Star bar.
