micmichd Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Things change, here are recent demographic data for Thailand: http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/thailand-population/ http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Thailand Makes me guess that there's 2 children in the average Thai family. Don't get fooled by what you see: Thai women take care of their friends' children and treat them like their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micmichd Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Most forum topics here have TVers slagging Thai males, Thai politicians, Thai police, Thai taxi drivers. Now in this one, we see a fair number slagging--that's an 'L', not 'H'--Thai women... saying that they're dumb, boring, conniving, age poorly etc. Really dumbfounds me why they are here. [And no, this is not an "if you don't like, why don't you leave" post -- I had simply assumed that all the Thai-haters were here for the ladies] p.s. I used to find Thai women very attractive until a couple of years back when they started painting their eyebrows to look bushier than a man's -- I can't wait for that fashion to pass. Started in Vietnam some years earlier, and they seem to have gotten over it. You mean eyebrows like the lady below? Oh No not another bloke!! How do you call these androgynous folks? Boyladies?

Brooke Shields By the age of 16, Shields had become one of the most recognizable faces in the world, because of her dual career as a provocative fashion model and controversial child actress.[1]Time magazine reported, in its February 9, 1981, cover story, that her day rate as a model was $10,000. In 1983, Shields appeared on the cover of the September issue of Paris Vogue, the October and November issues of American Vogue and the December edition of Italian Vogue After two decades of movies, her best known films are still arguably The Blue Lagoon (1980), which included nude scenes between teenage lovers on a tropical island (Shields later testified before a U.S. Congressional inquiry that older body doubles were used in some of them), and Endless Love (1981). The MPAA initially rated Endless Love with an X rating. The film was re-edited to earn an R rating.[33] She won the People's Choice Award in the category of Favorite Young Performer in four consecutive years from 1981 to 1984. In 1998, she played a lesbian, Lily, in The Misadventures of Margaret.[34] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooke_Shields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docno Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Re Thai eyebrows. Seems that many have had the good fortune to have missed this new fashion. The following two pics of my gf were taken a day apart. The first is how she likes to do her eyebrows. The second is what I now insist on when we're together. She and her friends weren't doing this when we met four years ago. Can't wait for them to over it.

Green job thinks she looks like a male. $27,208 is not bad for a girl who looks like a guy. Edited April 20, 2015 by lostoday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the thread but the pic is gone ( http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/577081-too-many-chinese-and-eurasian-faces-on-thai-media/page-2#entry5581562 ).

Not only on the beach, also in Old Bangkok (near Chanasokram Temple) Unfortunately no recording of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
