Thai Girls Vs Latinas

[AD1985]

I know there will be some bias but I wanted to ask anyways... has anyone here been to brazil or the other latin american countries? What do you think of the latina girls vs Thai girls?

[babuhavas]

latin girls do less make up compare to thai girls.

[bonobo]

The "vs" in the title of this thread gives an impression of competition, but be that as it may.

I don't particularly like to generalize as a rule, but there is one glaring difference that I see between Latinas and Thai women that I will go ahead and point out.

Latinas seem to have a better body image and self-esteem as to their perceived "sexiness."  As with all areas of the world, most Latinas do not meet the cultural pinnacle of physical "perfection"  ("perfection" being some sort of looks/body type which various cultures feel is the most attractive.)  However, most Latinas seem to feel that they are sexy, alluring women, and they dress and carry themselves accordingly.  They can look in the mirror and see their "faults" (I use this term with hesitation as I am not saying they are actual faults, but merely areas in which they might differ from their cultural ideas of "perfection") yet still think of themselves hot, sexy women whom any man would be lucky to make their acquaintance. 

Many Thai women, on the other hand, seem more critical of their appearances.  Even quite stunning women, from my perspective, at least, will degrade their attractiveness, declaring themselves too dark/short/heavy/uneducated/old/poor/whatever.

I will note that this difference seems based purely on culture and not on race.  While I have not met any Latinas of Thai descent, I have met Japanese and Chinese Latinas, and they have the same Latina attitudes as to their self-image as any other Latina.

[eek]

What exactly do you want to know? (Also "Asian" and "Latina" covers a VERY large and very different breadth of cultures and countries within each bracket. A lot depends on each country and culture, as well as each individual, their social status, their upbringing, etc, too.)

I have lived in Argentina, and I have family there. My brother has lived there over 20 years, speaks fluent Argentine Spanish, has been married once(now divorced) for a very long time (and has two kids from that marriage) and has been living with his gf for about nine years or so. I would definitely go along with what Bonobo said. Plus, Argentine ladies (i cant speak for other Latinas..) wont take any crap from men (or other women). I would say that both Asian and Latin ladies dont like crap for men, but Latinas would be hellova more verbal about it, whereas you may get the "mental erase" or silent treatment, or possibly the meat cleaver treatment here (depending on what you have done!). Argentines are also very romantic and expressive. Fiercy loyal and protective of family and home. Not that Asian women arent these things, but it Argentina its normal to be more open and expressive. Arguement-wise, you are more likely to get a rant and verbal expression from a Latina, and the silent treatment from an Asian lady. Sometimes neither resolve the situation, sometimes both can make the situation worse. I guess it depends on each relationship and how well you interact.

Physically, Latinas are usually curvier, and also appreciate their curves. The Asian style seems to be wanting more thinner less curvy sometimes almost child-like frames. Latina style is more womanly, Asian style seems more girly. Both are feminine, just in different ways.

Also, Argentine women dont feel they need to lower their standards. You will usually see couples that connect on a deep level, that can communicate well, and have respect for each other (I cant speak for countries such as Brazil where the poorer areas may have women who have less rights, or will put up with more, etc). In Asia, you will at times see seemingly quite mismatched couples. I dont mean just physically, but on different levels. Not that im saying its bad, or cant work, just that there does seem to be more of that here (as much as some may not like to read that and consider me wrong for saying that, im only expressing what i ..and others, if they are honest..see).

What in particular do you want to know though...??

Lorena Bobbit is Central American, Thai women don't have a monopoly on the meat cleaver solution.

South American women are also leaders in plastic surgery. Venezuela being one of the top. Scratch any Miss Venezuela contestant and you will find a silicone woman.

I find this need for comparison quite humorous. I wonder if the men have failedl in Thailand and are now looking for some other poor nation to find a willing woman?

[carmine]

I don't get this. Where is the need or interest for comparison?

[blubberboybob]

the latinas are very passionate.

thai girls are lacking in this department.

[bonobo]

I don't get this. Where is the need or interest for comparison?

While I cringe at the thought of X people are "better" than Y people, I do see the need or interest to examine cultural norms.  All of us are different, with different needs and fits into society.  As far as relationships, some men need a wife who is more controlling, taking over the household and giving a kick in the pants concerning his career, some women need a man who is more expressive of his love and attention, some men need a man who is somewhat of a wall-flower, etc.  And certain cultural norms may fit this more often than others.  

So if a person is able to do a decent job at self-examination, he or she may then focus his or her search for a partner within a culture where the norms better fit his or her needs.

In this thread, for example, if a man likes a woman who expresses herself and is more outgoing, while he may find that in a Thai woman, he would probably find a higher percentage of such personalities in Latin America.  So it might make sense for him to focus there in his search for a relationship.

LH, i wouldnt open this can of worms up cause inevitably comparisons with western women will come up - and that is not allowed I understand.

Agree. For looks and style though, Thai girls every time.

For attitude, outgoing, adventure it has to be those Brazilians.

Can't wait for the World Cup for the usual gratuitous shots of a few Samba Sorts...!!!

It goes without saying, that in a Thai based forum, most of the guys here would say Thai girls are their physical preference. However, someone like my brother doesnt find Asian women style attractive at all physically. I think a lot of guys here cant grasp that concept (not saying you cg).

Poor nation ? Brazil is not that poor and if Thai women where only like that because they are poor then why does eastern Europe not have many single men traveling to it ?

As for the question, I don't know what the difference is, I am happy with Thai women so I will probably never find out what Latino women are like.

[Samuian]

Simply compare Samba or Brazilian Carneval with anything here remotely resembling it - Morlum, Songkran, Lo:k Thong?

and one knows... on the other hand it can be a volcano compared to a hot mud bath.. but then who likes to spend his time with arguments - they (the time wasted arguing) aren't worth it anyway, thai, indian, hispaniola, italiana, latina or philippina....certainly, as mentionedbefore way, way more passionate.

[geriatrickid]

Careful kids, South Americans have some bitter rivalries and if you dare to compare a woman from Brazil with say one from Cental America Honduras, I suggest you purchase your funeral in advance. There is no such thing as a "latina" if the intent is to indicate a one size fits all. It's like saying Europeans are all the same. How can one say the typical tall thin Dutch man is equivalent to the pudgy little Englishman with his famous teeth? How can one say the typical fit beautiful Danish woman is the same as a Portuguese cleaning lady type?Jeez.

[moe666]

We are comparing western women to Thai women most latin countries that I know of are in the western world.

[IanForbes]

I think Latin women are a little more volatile. Well, okay, a LOT more volatile! That can be both a good thing and a bad thing. Latin women seem to enjoy dancing more, and they certainly enjoy the music that I like to dance to. I don't much care for the Thai disco type dancing. Latin women seem to have more curvaceous figures, but the Thais have cuter butts. I think a greater percentage of Latin women speak English than a similar number of Thai women. Thai women seem to have a little girl sweetness to them. The Latin women are more outgoing and forceful. But, we are only talking in generalities. There are exceptions to everything.

[eek]

moe, this is the kind of thing i find quite disturbing on Thaivisa. The way so often women are bundled up in an attempt to pigeon hole. Ie: Thai women in comparison to "Western women" which covers a HUGE territory! Even within Thailand itself, womens attitudes vary depending on which area, which upbringing, which social background. Sure, of course, there will be some general cultural norms and expectations. But when people start saying "Asian women"..hel_l..that one contains a minefield of differences!

As for "western women" well apparently, S.America, Europe, N.America, UK ..and whatever else people want to throw in there (Africa???..lol)..are getting all lumped in together. It beggars belief really. Also, seeing as it seems to be a hobby amongst some men here to put down "western women" it makes one wonder wth they classify as western! Are they saying that ALL women bar Thai (or Asian) are feminazis, fat, puritanical men-haters, and all those other la la la blah blah blah elements that are chucked in!?! In that case, makes one wonder if the men should be looking at themselves rather than bemoaning about all other female nationalities!

I certainly dont think Thai women LIKE some of the crap that men pull on them here, some just may have a different approach to handling that, ie: less verbal. THAT also doesnt mean its a healthy approach! NO woman appreciates men who treat them like shit...no matter what nationality they are.

[toybits]

Latinas and Thai women will always be looked upon as sex objects (by some people).

[pampal]

I don't discriminate, actually I like women from almost all countries

eastern Europe not have many single men traveling to it ?

e. europe? then u arent aware of the amount of mail order ukrainian brides plus the female sex trade from the balkan and ex russian areas. half the mixed marriages i meet up with at immigration for our visa are russian mixed with the israeli older guy-- all done through marriage brokers. here, they prefer the russian style, not oriental (they stick out too much in our society) and not s. american (too arguementative). the russian contingency can usually find a jewish relative somewhere in the blood lines to make it more easily acceptable here. and the colouring/dress fit in better.

brazil is poor poor poor. a very small percentage of the population is very very wealthy. and the girls certainly seem to belong to the 'want rich farang' group BUT they also prefer that there is sexiness and fun in the marriage. just money is not enough. i only meet up with the jewish argentinians/brazilians/mexicans/columbians and they aer definately a different mindframe from the thai women i meet (all issaan for the most part). i think the filipina women are also closer to the s. american style at least from the ones i meet here.

how would the men feel if we start a thread about this sort of thing. don juan vs. noi vx vladamir?

Obviously not as threatened as some apparently.

[CobraSnakeNecktie]

I think a lot of men just like the "strange". Like tiger woods we just like variety and something to break up the monotony. South America has a lot to offer when it comes to women. Argentina and Brazil are wonderful. Go forth and spread your seed.

Interesting you think so sokal. Perhaps you should check out your facts before making statements like the above.

And somehow it never dawned on me that Brazil was the entirety of Latina women.

Thailand GDP $261 Billion US dollars at current prices - 2008

Brazil GDP $1.61 Trillion US dollars at current prices - 2008

Moldova GDP $10.66 Billion...

Seems Brazil is not that poor.

[Meridian007]

I'm not going to touch this topic with a ten foot pole, there's good and bad everywhere. I do have to disagree strongly with this (from personal experience) however:

the latinas are very passionate.

thai girls are lacking in this department.

You either aren't meeting the right women or maybe the issue isn't them?

actually, Per capita, they are both rather poor:

Thailand $8239

Brazil $10,466

Singapore $51226

My buddy is a perfect example of that.  He is a US citizen, he has visited me in Thailand, and we have gone together to Argentina and Uruguay.  To him, 90% of the Thai women are just not that attractive.  He feels they look like young boys. In the US, he tends to the fuller-figured women, and he was in heaven in Argentina.

Who is more attractive as a group?  Neither.  It is all a matter of personal preference.

[IanForbes]

True, it's always a case of sampling a lot to find the few gems. Once you find the RIGHT ones then life is GREAT!

There certainly ARE differences between Thai and Brazilian women. Most here who know the two can easily see the differences. But, as some Frenchman once said... "Vive la differance!"

Every man has a different taste in women... just as women have different tastes in men. My son likes his women big, blonde and buxom. I like them slim, trim and brown eyed. My ex was a Portugese beauty who I was madly in love with and she fit the "Latina" example perfectly. It wasn't until I visited Asia after our divorce when I discovered the smouldering beauty of Thai women.

[kikoman]

I would agreed with Latinas, as more passionate and expressive, I love to dance and being Latino myself, they exhibit the cultural norms of my culture.

I love Thai women, but I feel the difference is religion and culture of each country. In Thailand the open showing of affection in public places is not approved of in Thailand, that alone has a great impact on Thai women ( not including Bar girls). They keep all intimate interactions confined to the bedroom. They are as passionate as any other women!

Their culture dictates what is acceptable for a Traditional Thai Women.

In my village every morning Thai school girls biking to school always past and wave and say good morning. As the years go by the little girls turn into young women and a new set of moral value are applied to them.They no longer wave, or say good morning they pass with their eyes focused on the road.

I love them all.
