beenitseenitdoneit Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Outside of the Lady Boys this is a serious question.I say that as I was quite taken aback to hear a female Thai saying, she refuses to engage eye contact with her male Thai counterparts.Not so much of a case that she refuses to talk to them, rather a case she even refuses to look at them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ExPratt Posted February 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2015 Yesterday in Sena Tesco Lotus. I pulled my trolley back to let him and his bird past , I always do the "Alright Mate" with a nod of the head (Thats a warm greeting where I come from) and he looked and attempted to do the same back. Non of this palm touching Sawadeeing for me , "Alright Mate" with appropriate head movement is good enough 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLock Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Today when I asked if it was ok to park my bike outside this guys local shop, because I was going to the restaurant next door in Samoeng and street was full. He smiled and said "No pompen". Then when I was leaving, him and his 3 mates came out to talk, look at the bike and ask questions. All in Thai. Nice enough local guys. Friendly and all made eye contact. Very personable. Don't you always make eye contact with anyone you meet? Maybe the girl has insecurities or has had some issues with Thai males in the past... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rgs2001uk Posted February 15, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2015 Ah yes the same tale is told to dumb unsuspecting farangs straight off the banana boat, its heard nightly in places like Lower Suk and Pattaya, Did she miss out the bit about, "Thai man no good","Thai man him lazy", "Thai man him only drink whiskey" Or did that come later? Whats even more incredible is, the dumb saps actually believe this rubbish. Watch out mate, she will be talking about sin sot next, its a trip to the gold shop on Suk soi 10 for you, you cant miss it, its a well worn path that farangs have been heading to for years, worthless paddy land will be presented as a great deal for you to buy, dont forget the compulsory Izuzu D-Max. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 In Isaan, anything more than a brief, almost accidental eye contact with a lady is considered flirting. Some that I see everyday and obviously don't think that 'me hannsum man' avert their gaze. I think it rubs off onto Farangs with time as I have started avoiding eye contact and swidikaping with Thais myself. I will give a response though.

Rajhulmaheesh Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 i think op means what he doesnt like is interacting with thai boys when hunting for his tart of the night. I get it.

daveAustin Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Most Thai females (not employed in the trade of lying down ) are actually very conservative and, as mentioned, it could be construed as flirting if they make eye contact, although is also a little bit childish in this day. Where I live, many females will keep their head down and, while I'm no Adonis, I'm no munter either. It is just safer for them to do so than risk giving you the wrong signal or, gawd forbid, conversation. Regards Thai males, I was chatting to some dudes the other night that I didn't know previously and have many associates. The scenario where it could be an issue for a farang to look at a Thai male would be one of lower status (brain power) in a karaoke bar, for example, where the Thai guys are out drinking with their buddies. To eyeball them would be considered confrontational and asking for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdinasia Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I make eye contact with everyone I meet. Gender is irrelevant. Last time? This morning while having coffee. A colonel (RTA) that is working with Cobra Gold has gone out of his way every day for a week to come over and sit with me just to speak a little English. (He added me to Line!) I find the question odd. I frequently hear strange questions like this but only from male foreigners that are insecure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgrahmm Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) If there is not a relationship estsblished most decent Thai women will not look into the eyes of Thai men or in the company of men such as a gathering.....I see this when we go to visit the inlaws..... Anyone I talk to Thai or not.... or acknowledge in either direction with a nod and a smile....most are returned regardless of age.....Agreed it's probably not a good idea in a Thai's bar - someone will take it wrong or think you are eyeing their gal....

Berkshire Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Every once in awhile, I'll read something and ask myself "Is every fresh-off-the-plane farang in Thailand this stupid?" This thread is one of those times. I'm not sure what the OP's point is, but if he were to look around, he'll see that most Thai women are with Thai men. Which means that there must be quite a lot of Thai women making eye contact with Thai men. Which leads me to ask again, what is the point of this thread? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarpoFongness4U Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Its a good idea not to make eye contact with a Thai male right after you have just oogled his wife or girlfriend, or, you just asked her if she is "working" other than that if you don't look in a person's eyes when you're looking at them what are you looking at their balls? in that case if you see two eyes you drank too much and are seeing double Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
