WinnieTheKhwai Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 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? Probably something on destitute Farang drunks or anyone else who doesn't spend at least 150K per month. Or Farangs marrying prostitutes and how silly they look. Or Farangs who don't mind being referred to as Farang. All perennially great troll topics.

ianf Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Keep calm and don't feed the trolls. I didn't come here FOR the women. I came here WITH a woman. She found another man and went off. So I found another woman. Now I stay here because of the new woman. Otherwise I would go back to wherever it is I came from. Does that put me in the 10%? Or could I possible have my own niche?

danmarnj Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 i agree, except for those who are working for a foreign company and are transferred here, the main reasons of course are: 1..Seeing the beautiful temples for the hundredth time 2.. Double-priced for admittance to attractions 3. The wonderful climate 4. The clean and fresh sois 5. The first world atmosphere 6. The clean and sanitary conditions Of course most guys come here for the women at cheap prices! Or the guys that have been here so long and have so little that they can only settle in a third-world country. Unless they can transport themselves to another third world country when Thailand becomes too expensive. If the availability of cheap women were not available, the only farangs here would be as described above. Most that are offended by the OP's premise have gotten themselves so ensconced here that they have no finances to move on,( Not many pensions or benefits to accumulate in LOS) or they have found ladies here and are making a happy life for themselves (thus came for the women and stayed because they found a suitable one). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I came to CM because of an English woman. I wanted to get a long way away from her. Finished with sex now. (well, sex that involves another person in the room anyway) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolkGuitar Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 This is fun to watch.... The OP doesn't see things as they are. He sees them as he is. There's a difference. He imagines that everyone else is just like him, for what ever emotional need that satisfies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesseFrank Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 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.) What ???? No women in Chiangmai ?

scottishjohn Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 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 would normally agree with you 100% (ok 90%) and I most certainly do agree with all your posts on this topic. However I must ask when were you 'handsome' ? Time to change your TV profile and stop feeding 'Trolls'., They need to go back to their proper habitat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why you would wish to insult the women of CM. I spent yesterday hiding from the heat and smog at the Central Festival Mall. Plenty of attractive women walking around the mall, and I don't even like women all that much.

puukao Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I'll take the bait. my last trip i was actually in the 10%. I biked 6,000 miles in 6 months and took thai classes. i didn't have much time to date, plus i had a gf back home and i wanted to keep that together. sure, she never would have known, but i didn't. HOWEVER, I do look at all women in CM. why not? i do the same in USA, but in Thailand you can be more obvious. and smile, and speak thai for no reason. ah, ok, i do think BKK has better looking women, and that makes sense. but CM does have enough to look at and enjoy. yes, if there were no women in CM, i would find another place to bike. however, if there were no mountains to bike, i would not be there. women factor into the equation in any city in the world, i think. oh, a job in Iowa? they are not thin. oh, NYC? great variety. oh, San Diego? nice. i call it an important bonus. life is short, open your eyes.
