David48 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 thailand is a hot country. how can anyone not change all their clothes at least once ... ?. At the moment it's freezing here (relatively). Even the tough 'ole Farm dog was shivering this morning! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laobali Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 You can get 4 days out of ya Jocks / Undies if you know the inside out / rotation method ..... I have heard that there is a way of getting 5 days but have never found out how yet ,it may just be a legend. What exactly do you mean by 'get' when referring to underwear (jocks)? Nobody can stop you wearing them for as many days or weeks as you want. One day is enough for me; I change them regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernatoruk Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I am overweight a little, and in the sun I do sweat. So when in Asia, I usually change my tops once-twice a day pending on where I am going and shower 3 times minimum. I have no smell but I know others do and like to maintain my hygeine best I can. Besides, the missus does the washing so that doesn't worry me either. However, with how cheaply you can get t-shirts out there, don't see why people don't change at least daily.

BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Buy a wash machine. "She" is the best house hold help. Works at night while u sleep. This way u have more time to think about more trivial things LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) I shower and change up to 3 times a day.......... U can only turn ur underwear two times a day legally, the a wash is required. BTW your comment about "up to 3 times a day" sounds like "up to 50% off" Edited January 21, 2014 by BlueSkyCowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I will reuse a set of clothing to go jogging in anticipation it will have to be washed. However, I take 2-3 showres a day and put on fresh clean cloths everytime. I'm not sure why anyone would ask.... I personally enjoy feeling clean and fresh all day long. "I personally enjoy feeling clean and fresh all day long." Sounds like an old detergent commercial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 People who stink, don't know they stink because their receptors are used to the smell. I'm not saying you stink but you might and not realizing it. Dosing a stinky body with lotions and deodorants only making matters worse. It's beyond me why you'd go into troubles of taking 4 showers per day but not changing your clothes once a day? I like good arguments and you had the best argument of he year so far. Yes I sopped now. 1 day clothes from now on. thanx I thought that was the reason for parfume, to cover the stink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forethat Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 When in Thailand I change clothes all day long. 1. When I wake up the t-shirt and boxers I slept in goes in the laundry 2. After a 30 min swim the swimming trunks goes in the laundry. 3. When I get home from the office I shower and change the clothes goes in the laundry. 4. If it's a gym day (6 days per week) the gym clothes goes in the laundry. 5. When I go to bed I shower and put on a t-shirt and a pair of boxers. The clothes I wore that night goes in the laundry If it's a weekend there's usually another shower midday where I change as well. I dont think I do anything extreme, OP on the other hand...

BlueSkyCowboy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Clothes? Only use them when I have to talk with Thais. Seem to get on OK with the visitors without them. why clothes.jpg That is funny. Looks like a great solution for the fellow who does not want to do laundry every 3 days LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cylon Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 My GF asks when I go to put jeans on, 1 day 2 day ? She seems to think that 2 days is the limit for jeans.All the rest I change everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunter2000 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Gee, some of you are so lucky, I can't have a bath because it is full of coal waiting for the next snow storm to arrive in Bangkok so I can start a fire in the fireplace in my Thai apartment. I will probably wash my clothes then as I will be able to dry them quicker in front of the fireplace. Grow up people!!! it's Thailand, I would not even contemplate wearing the same clothes a second day without washing them first, I don't have a major body odour problem and could most likely get away with it. Also staying healthy also means staying clean. I guess the same people also don't wash their hands after going to the toilet either???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomSand Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I only wear clothes to go outside and get food. One pair of underpants, trousers and a shirt can last me about a 10 days. Of course I always have fresh clothes when I've got something important to do like a visa run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that you've beyond "tourist" when you even don't care that you've got wet trousers/arse from using a bum-gun... you're even slightly proud of it as it shows the world that you've just performed some type of cleansing activity.

Seastallion Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 You can get 4 days out of ya Jocks / Undies if you know the inside out / rotation method ..... I have heard that there is a way of getting 5 days but have never found out how yet ,it may just be a legend. By the fifth day, the first day's skid marks, urine and semen stains have dried and flaked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showbags Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm always doing laundry. Unlike a lot of foreigners I know, like my neighbor, I enjoy washing my own clothes by hand, so I always have clean clothes. Many foreigners get their laundry done at a service, either because they are used to getting things done for them, or never did learn to do their own laundry. At most once a week. Either way, I always tell them that's where the term smelly farang comes from. They are walking around in skank because they can't do their own laundry. Anyone who can't do their own laundry sucks. Anyone that enjoys washing their own clothes has had an awesome adventurous life and this is the highlight of it all. If the maid cannot do it, it piles up till she can. Sometimes we pull a few items out of the pile that ain't to bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jinners Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 usually wear my gear once. This cooler weather, I may get 2 wears out of a shirt. Thai's change all the time. Thank FFT. I have come across many stinking farangs, even in the gym. Nightmare. Water and soap don't cost a lot wherever you may roam. Get a wash you stinky <deleted>! And as a side issue, never come across a stinky Thai, some other nationalities however, seem to have a water aversion. No names mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prevalence of "bum guns" here significantly reduces the "skid mark" issue and gives enhanced wearability. 555 posted from my Samsung using Tapatalk 2.
