Five things farang men must stop wearing

[Suradit69]

Yeah, if only this guy wasn't wearing that tank top, he'd be a real catch. I can almost picture him on the runway at Giorgio Armani's next do.

Let's face it some men or women could wear a bin liner and look great. Others, not so much.

Retaliation? Is this a war?

[Tatsujin]

Must be German.

. . . more likely British . . . the knotted handkerchief on the head is the dead giveaway it's a Brit.

[arthurwait]

Just like some people can wear singlets and others cannot

Yes fat old men (wish they wouldn't), runners (while running) and young gay guys can, everyone else can not.

Sorry , what was that you were saying about chips on your shoulder ?

[jamhar]

Hey we cant get them to stop wearing that sh*t at home!!

If we can suffer, Thais can suffer! lol

PS that muffin top pic is just OFF THE CHART!

As a "Farang" I really would like to read the rest of the article, but the link is dead and the whole bangkok.coconut.co seems to be down!

PS. I already changed my pants, and eager to know more...

Is this as in 'Chang' the beer ? I've changed my pants on occasion.

[arthurwait]

I've been following the comments on the Coconuts BKK FB page......

https://www.facebook.com/coconutsbangkok?filter=1

Some Highlights.....

The beer vest reminds me of the Jerry Seinfeld comment about sweatpants. “You know the message you're sending out to the world with these sweatpants? You're telling the world, 'I give up. I can't compete in normal society. I'm miserable, so I might as well be comfortable.”

The woman speeks the Truth! And the hooker arm accessories gots to go to. Ok sure do your thing, but put em back were you found em afterwards. It's like carring around the empty McDonald's bag from the chicken nuggets you ate last night. Who wants to see all that?

Yes, all of the things list are terrible but, Wow! Really?!?! Fashion advise from a Thai huh? Thais by far have the worst fashion I have EVER seen in my life. I suppose someone should offer her a list of do's and don'ts as well. Like 1) Men with long finger nails should cut them. 2) Long toe nails not ok they are not finger nails nor should they be treated as so. 3) Mini skirts and furry legs yuck. 4) A face full of talc <deleted>. Shit, I could be here all day but let me just put this one out there..... Quit picking your f****ng nose in public because it makes me SICK!

and we think we are bad?

Love the second one.

I'm guessing the third author doesn't hang around with the classiest of people.

Saw one nearly as bad as that in Hastings yesterday and the woman had a hairy arse crack top with it as well.

[jamhar]

I like this one as one of the comments to that article.

Emma Aphi G. · Bangkok, Thailand

I do agree with this article, crazy tourist fashion is a no-no. But hey, let's be honest, most Thais have terrible fashion sense as well. I mean over-sized Hello Kitty t-shirt with a pair of chess-print JJ shorts at the mall? Bitch please..

Emma is my hero for today!

I,m not sure about this fishermans pants thing a handkerchief on the head, one time had a friend from malta come to stay for a while and he dressed like this everyday even down to the flipflops,

he had atleast one date everyday...sometimes two, he even had girls picking him up to take him away for the weekend and told he never picked up more than 50% of the expences,

Maybe some can pull it off, others not.

[arthurwait]

60 year old topless farang women.

[wolf5370]

Man purses...please stop wearing man purse guys unless u need them to carry your manpons

What is a man purse?

Bum-Bag - Fanny-Pouch

But it's mostly girls who wear bumbags, should it not be girl purse?

"Girl Purse" sounds like a euphemism

[AsterixThai]

Must be German.

Or Switzerland

[jamhar]

4. Baggy Pants

Somehow think they look better than this

I did a google for "muffin top" I still can not beat that pic.

I'm stealing it to use in my image database.

Just letting you know and to say "thanks!"

[ginglee]

Give it a try now, I fixed the link.

Either still not working or not working again.

There's only one thing worse than a fat, hairy, beer swilling, foul mouthed expat wearing a Chang wife-beater.

And that's a fat, hairy, beer swilling, foul mouthed expat that thinks it's OK to walk around bare gutted with his Chang wife-beater tucked into the back of his camo cargo shorts. Bunch of muppets with as much style as a $2 Rolex.

[schondie]

My hates are backpackers that try so hard to look "ethnic" - walk around cities barefooted and order chopsticks to eat rice dishes.

[Guemlum]

5 things Thai's shouldn't wear

1. Pyjamas when out shopping

2. Earmuffs when the temperature drops below 18c

3. Flip flops half the size of their feet (mainly aimed at the teenage men from "baan nok") who have only ever bought one pair in their lives and can't afford a new pair.

4. T-shirts with English profanities written on them

5. Stilletos with socks.

[rookball]

I think they call that "staying on topic" as that is what the topic is - things for farangs not to wear, not Thais not to wear. Odd to call a thread a "bandwagon"

But man purses are fun. You get hit the ladyboys with it when they are trying to pick your pockets.

[bangkokstick]

Again a very interesting publication from this website ? So lucky us to be given such interesting pieces to read !

[maccaroni man]

I always wear shorts and have been refused entry on occasion IMO that was their loss not mine. Thailand is hot and humid how does wearing a button down shirt and tie even make sense?

[bobmac10]

Must be German.

or brit

yeah Brit I reckon, they pioneered the socks and sandals look along with the "tied at four corners handkerchief hat".

Tres chic!

I,m happy to say I'm safe. I don't wear any thing like that.
