jpeg Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Why are Thai men always referred to as 'males' on this forum (much like some kind of beast)? Whilst Thai women, even if fire breathing ho's are always called 'ladies', uh yeah! TV, I know your demographic is middle aged to old white guys, but for the sake of equity, nay, 'democracy' , you should call them Thai gentlemen, no? And, yes, I am aware that not all of them are, same all Thai women aren't ho's. Before y'all start 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, yes, I am aware that not all of them are, same all Thai women aren't ho's. Before y'all start Okay, so let me put it this way: Why do so many little THAI GENTLEMEN choose to drive Big Trucks? In 30+ years I don't ever recall seeing a "Man Sized" THAI GENTLEMAN driving a truck, they are inevitably very little THAI GENTLEMEN, leading me to wonder if there is some deep seated reason for this, perhaps a Freudian Reason..... not to put too fine a point on it, but I'm sure the majority of subscribers in the Thai Visa Demographic (Old White Guys like me) will get the Thrust of my question. Hope you and your THAI GENTLEMAN FRIENDS are happy now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
