Scarpolo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Other than the crazy dog business, Is she wrong? I am with a thai girl for 4 months and although I have met her mother, in the north country, I have yet to meet ANY of her friends, as she is still unsure about our relationship, and, we are living together for a month, at my request Call me naive but this does not sound like a normal teacher's behavior especially her statement on your dog, I am a bit skeptical about the entirely story, some part I can see it, but the other part does not seem to add up.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarpolo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 As much as I would like to agree, I cannot, most blacks in the USA hate whites, and openly show it. I have met countless westerners who have the exact same attitude (in reverse) about other ethnicities/nationalities when I grew up in the west. I have met even many westerners with Thai partners in Thailand/abroad who think the same as she does in reverse (everything Thai sucks, blah blah blah). Actually, on balance quite a lot in the latter category - it's pretty odd when they have kids and cannot even conceal how much they hate a fair chunk of the kids' makeup - no wonder so many look krueng end up as total screw ups. As per the description of the person in Tennessee, usually the hatred is kept slightly concealed, to be revealed once the person has sized you up (either in some cases to annoy you, in other cases because they think you will agree). As with most racists, she sounds like a bit of an idiot, and possibly mentally a little unhinged, and I would almost try to avoid her, except that she does provide amusement value as the Thai Archie Bunker - next time she starts ranting, perhaps asking her to stifle herself. As Simon43 said, a video recording would be really good, I love watching All in the Family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thailiketoo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) The "westerners" for the most part in Chiang Mai from what I have seen are Australian and British, with a mix of Dutch, German and French. Every now and then, I found a fellow american, but very few, The attitude in Chiang Mai, is every thai girl is a whore, I had people approach my thai girlfriend, repeatedly, luckily, I no longer have anger issues and she can tell them to screw off well enough on her own, but if it is racist for them to hate the westerners, they have a real good reason in chiang mai, from what I have experienced in chiang mai, the westerners are all there for the same reason, and it isnt to treat girls nicely There is a similar topic re a Thai's attitude towards Westeners by a Thai teacher/lecturer from Chiang Mai http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/686107-farang-go-home/ If there aren't many Americans living in the Chiang Mai area seems odd they would have an embassy there! Given the number of college ladies (30,000 +) in CM one would imagine that "every girl is a student" is probably a more realistic attitude from someone who know Chaing Mai a bit. Sorry Scarpolo you are not ready to move out of the, I'm new and don't have a clue" category yet. Edited January 28, 2014 by thailiketoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajaan Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I worked for 20 years in northern Canada flying drunk, smelly, dirty and disgusting Indians (not the ones from India). I did it in order to finish work early and move to Thailand. I hated everything about themtheir culture, language, appearance, music, attitude, even their physical presence made me ill. Now I can relate to how bar girls feel with their ugly customers. I had to smile and laugh with them while inside I was repulsed by them. I was no different than a bar girl and sold my dignity for money everyday. Its not a pleasant existence but I have a good life here now. They would be native canadians. What sort of natives are in canada and how they are similar to the ones in america? I mean you know of the sioux and the apache cos these are famous tribes but so far i have never really heard of the canadian indians and do they have a canadian version of the trail of tears? Btw it's the native canadian's country so you are the invader. Well, they have the highest rate of suicides in the world. Girls are raped routinely, alcoholism is rampant, children start sniffing gas at 6 years old, unemployment is over 80%, diabetes and drug use is out of control, their diet consists of potato chips and Coke, they are insanely fat, the murder rate is about 1 in 300 people annually.need I go on? Its not somewhere you want to go. Its all about money and how much you can make off them before you quit. http://www2.macleans.ca/2012/03/30/canada-home-to-the-suicide-capital-of-the-world/ Pretty accurate synopsis. Hmm, okay, this makes things much clearer. It's obvious who the supreme racist is here. Why don't you ask the teacher to marry you, sounds like you have a lot in common. We have enough loonies blathering here on TV, we don't need racist pieces of shit too. Go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google American Embassy Chiang Mai and you get this, http://chiangmai.usconsulate.gov/service/contact-us.html Kind of like correcting spelling eh? Consulate and Embassy? Either facility is a billion dollar expense to run and maintain and would not be there if there were not a whole bunch of Americans living in the area.

Lazzar Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Every country has people like this. I have an uncle who is basically the same way about the USA. He never left the country, only eats American staples (burgers, hotdogs, potatoes etc) only buys "American made" products. I figure its their loss not mine But some countries have more then others with their center and narrow maind that scares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tmymaimee Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Is it racist if you dislike an entire race for valid reasons? Generalizations that hold up for 99% of the race? It would be hard to generalize all whites as having a certain set of characteristics but some smaller, less diverse races may exhibit certain disgusting, vile traits, no?

It would be hard to generalize all whites as having a certain set of characteristics but some smaller, less diverse races may exhibit certain disgusting, vile traits, no? By western standards yes, most would prefer you keep your opinions to yourself. Personally I think thought and speech aren't a big deal, as long as no one puts you in a position where you'd use your prejudice to harm the groups you hate, money, jobs, housing etc that's where I prefer to use that strong term "racism". But yes just because you prefer your humans sober and sweet-smelling doesn't mean they don't have the right to be drunk and smelly if that's the way they want to be. If you get into bed with them they probably think you smell bad yourself, different odors smell bad to different cultures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarpolo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The reason Thai's don't sweat is their horribly high sodium diet and the fact they dont drink enough water If they didn't have a diet that consisted of near garbage, mostly pig related, and the skin of chickens, they would sweat most of them, are dehydrated, but KFC and McDonalds is here, so, say hello heart disease and fat as cows thai women farang ONLY like bargirls,so how convenient .

Scarpolo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Nonsense!, try jilting a brazilian girl, I did, and she deserved it, but, scorned is mild, on fire crazy, is more descriptive She is really obsessed with the topic of Farang faults, isn't she? It sounds more to me like she was jilted by a Farang and now has a deep hatred of them. From what I understand, these ideas are drilled into Thai children's heads both in their communities and schools, so it might be caused by that. Either way, if she's obsessing so much about this, you can be sure that she's generally a miserable and unhappy person who wants to blame others for her lot in life. I might ask her if Farang are so awful, why do all the women on woman's products marketed to Thais in the store look Farang? In other words, if Farang are so terrible, why do 99% of Thai woman want to look like them? BTW, if she is only a teacher hired by the school and she is being offensive toward a portion of the class, why don't you just report her to the administrators and make a formal complaint? Hell hath no fury like a Thai woman scorned........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanthralak 1 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 This puerile style of conversation is fun now because she is attractive, you are tripping to be bantering in a foreign language, enjoying the socialising but it will get stale or possibly even ugly. You need to go beyond this or the relationship will stall. I think she is winding you up. Probably more interested in you than you think. She probably has discovered being slightly racist gets your attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
