farang000999 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) For being supposedly uneducated, these women sure are good at conning a man and viciously and mercilessly gutting him. It is funny because the stereotype is that these women are victims. While they very likely were victimized at some point, probably before they ever met a farang, they are now certainly NOT the victim.

Thinkingofachange Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 an all too familiar story but Im sorry these women are c**** s no other word for it, despite the men being stupid it tells me far more about the women, I loathe them. Scum of the earth leeches...........am I being too hard.........? No I didnt think so I don't mind people taking advantage of market opportunities to make a profit--they have a product (their sex appeal) and there is a market where that product will earn them a profit. What I DO have a problem with is the paternalistic, patronizing attitude of most westerners that these women are poor victims who deserve sympathy and support. I saw the "My Boyfriend the Sex Tourist" documentary before I knew anything about Thailand and before I visited the country and was at first moved at these poor girls' plight...until I started to talk to more people online and finally went to Thailand. Nowadays, I feel bad for janitors cleaning bathrooms. Where's the documentary about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjj Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Read Thai Visa. I have never read such a large group of accidents waiting to happen. One can only ponder and shake his head in wonder. What is the naturally occurring length of marriages in any population? Thai Visa % of marriages under 7 years? 90% maybe 95%. I've been married 7.5 years! Woohoo!! Anyone know the average length of a marriage in farangland? Also, doesnt the women usually clean up in those divorces too? In thailand isnt there a law to split everything 50/50, or does this not apply to farang? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first marriage lasted 21 years and I only knew my UK wife for 9 months before we married. In the divorce I kept my pensions and all of my stuff that woul fit into a Ford Mondeo estate and she had the rest, house car etc. I knew my Thai wife for 7 years before we married 12 years ago last month and yes the house and all the land are in her name too.

Buchholz Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 8 May 2012 David Tucker’s My Thai Bride has won the award for Best Mid-Length Documentary at Hot Docs. Held in Toronto, Canada, Hot Docs is North America’s largest documentary festival, with this year’s audience numbers reaching an estimated 165,000. My Thai Bride was supported by Screen Australia and screened in Hot Docs’ International Spectrum program – a curated competition of diverse works from around the world. The film details the ensuing demise of Ted, a 46-year-old Welshman, after his marriage to a poor Thai bar girl. On awarding the prize the jury said, “My Thai Bride is a film that takes the story of an unlikely couple and through subtle analysis extends their human dramas into a moving examination of political, cultural and economic power dynamics. It is a film that destabilises its viewer’s empathy through a nuanced and even-handed portrayal of charged, contradictory terrain, and reframes who exactly is the conqueror and conquered.” http://www.screenaus...08_hotdocs.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buchholz Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 (edited) an unrelated song by the same name: My Thai Bride by John B Spencer Band Song sample here: http://www.myxer.com.../My-Thai-Bride/ Unsurprisingly, and thankfully, it's the only album ever made by the John B Spencer Band but for $2.99, the song is yours. .

BigJohnnyBKK Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Any relationship that starts as a commercial agreement usually sets the tone for the future. Yes and as long as you keep it on that basis, pay a reasonable salary/allowance and be a firm but fair boss things can keep going well for quite a while. It's these guys that pay out ten years' wages in the first six months that I don't understand. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
