went to the bottle shop near my room in bkk and got the evil eye from some young trendy thais for only wearing my khaki pants no shoes and no shirt .

the shop is literaly a stones throw from my bed and now everytime i go up the alley where the shop is all the thais glare at me like i am the scum of the earth .

Are you Randy from the Trailer park boys ?

Your not a troll are you ?

This is just not done much inside Bangkok, the gated community where I live i see plenty of people without t shirts but they would not go into the 711 or other shops. In Bangkok itself I never seen this and not wearing shoes .. you really mean barefoot ?

I know that you would get funny looks back in the Netherlands too. (maybe not on the real hot days)

Minimum dress outside home (except poolside) shorts, T, flipflops.

Simple rule, if you see the locals doing it, then it's ok (no, not robbing the bank).

...next time try without the shorts and let us know the outcome...

Fine example of the best of the worst.

Going both shirtless and shoe less is certainly not a respected behavior pattern.

In fact going shirtless in Bangkok is an offence, going shoe less ( unless a you are a monk) denotes a very low class person.

Might do well to check the Thai meaning of the first part of your posting name Kee

By the fact you need to ask such a question shows the class of person you are sorry

It's because you had no amulets

I've got to call Troll on this thread...

I find it difficult to comprehend that someone can be this stupid...

^^^

Would agree with the troll call. If the OP can make up a pathetic username like that, then he will know the expectations of dress code.

suppose if i saw a thai walk through hyde park in sydney no shoes no shirt id think he was a head case and stare too.

actually dresscode varys from place too place and ive seen multi millionaire (baht) queenslanders in dirty pants no shirt no shoes stayin in nice hotels .

so who looks down on who ? the peasant living on fish and rice with a clean shirt or the super rich dirty looking foreigner?

the peasant looks down on the rich guy who is too ignorant or too rude to respect local behavioral customs

I don't...... having read some of the questions and comments on TV over the ....

like why does my 110 VAC appliance bust into flames when I plug it into 220 VAC ?

Why Are Thais....

etc etc

so your a super rich dirty foreigner ? or just dirty foreigner, a walt, ? what, definitely lacking in a bit of class dear boy

Your post seems to indicate your an Aussie, so being a member of the criminal classes, your lack of attire makes perfect sense

No wonder you got the evil eye, did you not read anything about Thailand before you came here? You should have learned about Thai

culture, then maybe you would have known to respect Thailand and it's people.

No more going out without your shirt on, though it's OK on the beach.

The vikings are hardly known to be a classy bunch either, drunk all the time, falling in bushes, losing their shoes, (that's why they are in their bare feet)

You really need to start dressing like a respectable farang in Thailand, and TV's resident cultural experts advise the following as acceptable attire

1. Chang wife beater, preferably washed in the last two weeks

2. Walking shorts

3 White socks

4 Sandal's (AKA desert Wellies)

5. Very big Buddha medallion

For attending immigration

1. Freshly pressed polo shirt, or silly checked short sleeved shirt

2. Walking shorts

3. white socks

4. Freshly polished patent leather dress shoes

5. Best Buddha medallion

You are obviously not a native English speaker, nothing wrong with that, but I have a problem understanding the last part of your sentence.

All I can do is remind you that it is a big NO NO, going about shirtless.

ive seen aussies have competitions who could wear the same chang singlet day in day out without washing it

The more you read from the O.P the more I'm convinced he or she is nothing more than a pikey troll intent on insulting Australians and Nordic folk with his or her inane comments.

Troll.

By the fact you need to ask such a question shows the class of person you are sorry

Obviously, you are a poor man.

Go to the Salvation Army or local wat for assistance is my suggestion.

This topic should be fun....
