thaibeachlovers Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 And yet they are all wrong.......amazing that eh? Assumptions are made on appearance (right or wrong) ..... you must agree to that. Try it yourself if you don't believe me. Take a wander, with the photo, ask a few Thais. I agree with you......and yet they would still all be wrong. So what do we do? Go on a circular argument about the value of first appearance? That was the whole point of the photo, and I'm sorry if it has upset anybodies pre-conceived notions of Thai women. Do first impressions count?........yes Are they always correct?............no. <So what do we do?> Well, you could stop worrying about what other people think. It took me years, but eventually I did realise that other people aren't better than I, and while they may have negative opinions, so what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinfoilhat Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Uhhh...maybe she wanted to get the tattoo. Maybe she dresses the way she does because she wants to. Hahaha how could a family "not allow it'? Come on... It's like banging your head against a brick wall with some of you people. There are some people here that think nothing has changed in Thailand in 100 years. "...you people"? Are you saying that because I am African American? Perhaps nothing has changed in 100 years in some peoples minds. nice attempt at the race card, should make things interesting. btw im jewish Oh no not the race card! I'm a 1/4 Jewish, 1/4 Danish, 1/2 English have a African feature - my wife is 1/2 chinese, 1/4 Lao, 1/4 Thai and a discreet tatoo feature. This makes are kids look 100% caucasian they even have blue eyes! i have a clubfoot and a harelip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinfoilhat Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 It's been pointed out by others that this assumption that tattoo on lady = bar girl is wrong, however a lot of people here are not prepared to believe that. Some of the guys on here have no idea that this forum is read by Thais on a daily basis, no idea that it is read by the partners of members on a daily basis, and no idea of how offensive and outright stupid some of the posts are. Now we have guys lining up to say that my lady is a sex worker because of one photo. Just asked my SIL (Skype) who is a Pattaya hooker ...... she says hooker too. i swear, thais have the craziest names 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnnyBKK Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I know a nun who used to be a prostitute. Been a nun for 5 years now, not uncommon, some prostitutes get to dislike men (as sexual partners). No rules about prostitutes not being allowed to join. Same here, one of my ex's from my early days here, not quite a nun yet, but now spends three weeks living her local temple about every other month. And it's done her the world of good, a much more thoughtful person, pretty much has her anger management issues under control, seems to be trying to do the right things. But too soon old, too late schmart, story of my life. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have guys lining up to say that my lady is a sex worker because of one photo. I've just shown it to my Thai family and a few Thais floating around. 'What occupation do you think she has'. They all said hooker too. Q: Pooying tee nee tam ngern arai ....... A: pooying kai dtua (The small sample varied from young teen female up to grannies) Have you asked her mum, I'm betting she will say hooker. It's not as if Thais have different ideas to us about tattoos. I would say, if anything, they were even more judgmental. Edit Just asked my SIL (Skype) who is a Pattaya hooker ...... she says hooker too. PS Shorts, irrelevant every female (and some guys) with attractive legs wears shorts, but in this case most would wear long trousers to cover that tattoo. And yet they are all wrong.......amazing that eh? I'm with you 100% on this one. The others are wrong. Many women here have tattoos and they aren't/never have been sex workers. Seems like there are a lot of uninformed, prude guys who have not seen the changes over the years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thai government must be also wrong then, cos she'll never be working for them. Anyway TB has already told us she never worked in a bar, so all the posts about her are irrelevant as well as off topic. If this is turning into a 'reader's wife's legs' thread, can I post a photo of my wife's legs, she's never worked in a bar either and has prettier legs to boot.

maxme Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 How do you spot a bargirl if she's not drooling over a man at a bar? Do you carry BG meters with you to detect them or do you make snap judgements like some farang women make here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob8891 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Not sure about thai bg's, but there were a lass in our village (in the noble land of my birth) who had rubber studs on her knees & elbows and a cash-box on her head. If memory serves me right, Back-entry Bertha was her name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmem Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) Am I to understand that every member who posted with shock and horror at blokes hooking up with BG's married virgin nuns. Come on you lot, be it they worked in a bar, did tricks to pay for their Uni degree or belonged to the hosties mile high club what bloody difference does it make. If it is only the BG's that are the bad girls, their is a lot of female public servants, politicians and the like with skeletons in the closet. Maybe all the ex bar girls should have their foreheads tattooed so the high moralized element amongst us can truly recognise them instead of making unjustified presumptions based on looks, body art or clothing. I have heard it a million times over the past 40 years - my wife was the cook or the cashier or worked hard to put herself through Uni. Never the brush, just the broom handle. I don't know what makes me pewk more, your self bloody righteous or your bullshit. Get over it and get on with living.

bangkokburning Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) To all you guys slagging marriage... Perhaps you were previously married to a cow or some other sort of beast. I was a dedicated bachelor till I was 50. I lived in California in my youth and shagged all sorts of beauties 100s...In Thailand, I also had my fill. So, when I met my wife I was ready to settle down, have a lovely companion, avoid herpes and not die of hiv. Its real funny guys on this board - so many could not even attract and keep a woman. Ah...sworn to fun, loyal to none! The women in the bars I was meeting were nothing but problems. So you are welcome to them. Their ugly attitudes, garish tatoos, smoking, drugs, scams and bs trips. How much dont I need to pay for that?
