It's cheap, the climate, the culture , yada, yada, yada. BS. Good ol' fashioned mid life crisis and the hunt for younger women brought you here. Be honest.

You didn't come here for air you can't breathe, the water you can't drink or western items you have to HUNT for. And it definitely wasn't the som tom. Me? It definitely played big on my decision. So...admit it.

Why did the other 10% come here ?

Chiang Mai. Is that why people go there?

"Thai Women the reason"

Very true, I divorced mine 16 years ago.

Never again.

Nice try but no!

Like many people I came here because of work in the region and ended up staying. I thought I might stay for a year or two and all of a sudden it turned out to be ten! The female aspect wasn't a motivator at the time although my wife is a major reason why I stay.

I am exploring my spirituality

Hey look, another round of trolling!

Seriously though, if people came for the women they sure as #*(@% wouldn't pick Chiang Mai. That makes no sense at all.

(Then I'd pick Bangkok, if no other reasons applied beyond women. Never mind that everything else is nasty there.)

Nonsense, Don't tar everybody with your own <fill in the blanks>.

Do the lightweights always come out at this hour?

Isn't it obvious?

.

I thought everyone came for the political discourse?

I find it odd that there weren't women in your own country, so you had to travel to find some.

I've notice women in just about every country I've been in. Sure, there are one or two countries that are all male, but they are statistically irrelevant.

Which country did you come from that caused you so much trouble?

I must be in the minority,10% me and all the gays that don't come here

for the women.P.S. I am not gay and thats not a problem for me ,i am a

10 per center.

While I do enjoy the perpetual beauty contests, zero property taxes, truly affordable health care/dental care, and minimal African (Americans)/Muslims also played a big role. I like spicy food, too. I don't miss all the American women with the Fred Flintstone haircuts, either.

Yep

Temples!

Sure, I like the way that Thai women sew my clothes, cut my hair, do my nails, take care of my teeth, treat my medical problems, fly the airplanes I ride, run the banks I use, etc, etc. But that's just a small part of the reason I came here.

So now the OP's thinking, hmm, I seem to have overlooked the possibility that an expat could be female, perhaps my logic at the outset is a little flawed!

I think that we can safely rule out NancyL as one of the very few Thai Visa members who did not come here for the women. She fits in the 10% somewhere.

Actually, I thought that the OP was giving us the benefit of the doubt with the 90% figure.

OK I admit it you came here for the sex.

Feel better

Troll's don't have to make sense especially the ones using their lower head for thinking.

I would imagine in your case you mean prostitutes. Fortunately for me, I came here as a young , handsome businessman and met a wonderful young lady 2 years younger than myself. I'm still with her 25 years later.

Besides being a troll, you're probably just a sad loser trying to make yourself look not as bad by hoping that you're not alone.

I do hate to quibble but I seriously doubt he used in logic at all.

Just trolling.

Keep calm and don't feed the trolls.

The OP made a mistake in his post. He meant to write he came here for the young thai boys.

I came here because I could not pass the driving test in my own country!

bullshit, don't project your failings onto me.

I didn't come here for the women, im certainly not staying for the women.

Why is it that some people just cant understand that?

sorry but not everyone is as pathetic as you are. you obviously are shameful about your decisions considering you are trying to rationalize them amongst other people here to make it seem normal.

I spotted this troll right off in the last thread.

Ummm....some people never had a problem getting any in their own countries. I came here for food and adventure. I have another friend who came here for elephants.

Let me guess - your knowledge of Chiang Mai encompasses a keen understanding of the inner city and a 5 block radius of the moat?

What's the next sweeping statement going to be?
