silsburyhill Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 The 'Thai MALE' brigade, as if they were a different species. Never see 'The German Male, The English Male, The Swedish Male'. Could be something to do with the various farang 'males' being a tad jealous of the FACT Thai women, given the chance (and many do, agreed?) prefer The Thai Male over the farang Male.

DrTuner Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 The 'Thai MALE' brigade, as if they were a different species. Never see 'The German Male, The English Male, The Swedish Male'. I think that division comes from the Thais themselves. You're Thai, or you're a Farang, Arab, or one of the other groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konini Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Don't get your knickers in a twist? The "be dismissive and patronizing and pretend someone is upset when they point out an error in a calm fashion" brigade! The art of the subtle put down. Condescension is the master of all such arts, all the more enjoyable when it goes over your protagonists' head - especially if they think you are making some kind of compliment.

chiangmaikelly Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 I think I have read all the responses but I don't think anyone mentioned the "Testicle Brigade." You know, "grow a pair." It is never one. It is always a pair. Some people only have one. Maybe the folks insisting on growing a pair only have one. Or maybe none. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
