bheard Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 On 14/01/2017 at 3:31 AM, theguyfromanotherforum said: In the West having a coffee or a conversation with a member of the opposite sex is very normal. Only in Thailand the Thai wife would get jelaous and think of a guy as a cheater. I used to have many female friends in Canada....Here I don't have any. Yes, I'd like to have a coffee, but I'm not allowed. Such a pertinent comment. Many readers here will know exactly what you mean I'm sure. I'm not married to a Thai woman (any woman for that matter) but have been tempted from time to time. I recall one woman getting very keen on the idea (keener than I was) whose reaction when I told her that I would be continuing my current practice of having coffee with female friends during the day when she was at work - it was immediate - "that cannot be". I said yes, it will be. She thereupon grabbed her things, told me she had made a mistake, and left the building, never to return. I larfed like a drain. So typical.

What are they supposed to have removed from the post? The racist stuff about Thai women for one thing. The part about how Thai women were only good for cooking and cleaning and sexual favors. The part about how western men were starving for intellectual stimulation because Thai women couldn't provide that. I know you purport yourself to be anti racist so I would have thought you'd have been clued into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKDfella Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Open hostility...Oh man, I like that. Has the OP even been to a 'ladies night out'? I was in an general relaxation adjoining room to such an event once, having a chat with a friend. A woman, I'd guess about 35-40 came strolling in and sat close by. She looked at me and puffed something like 'Had to get away from that lot' and I replied with something like (can't remember exactly what now) "Yeah, can be strain on the ears but you can relax in here." She got up, slapped me on the shoulder then suggested I was getting 'fresh' with her. Dear OP, Ha! A chap wouldn't be allowed to get away with that. Op you have a chip on your shoulder...or is it a 'chimp'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when I say "intellectual," please understand I am not denigrating Thai wives/GFs--I simply mean that said Western man misses talking about politics, current events, etc., that may not hold interest for his Thai partner. This appears to be denigrating Thai women and a gross generalization .....As if that is all a Thai women is good for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocddave Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I'm thinking if these are your biggest worries in Thailand, and have consumed you so much that you have to rant about it, I think you came to the wrong place to retire. I'm going to take a guess here, but if you're by any chance a Progressive Liberal from a "Western" country, expecting this to be that long lusted after fairy tale Utopia......you are DEFINITELY in the wrong place!

Open hostility for me as a farang woman, Generally, I get on well with falang women in Thailand unless/until they see my thai girlfriend then they get all weird and aggressive, to the point where my tgf now feels she has to announce from start she has a degree, good job and is not a prostitute, even then these women seem to feel there is something unwholesome going on, tbh it feels a lot like racism towards a mixed race couple or is it jealousy because tgf is smoking hot and only 38kg....I'm not sure! Intellectual whore How do you know these men are not having the exact same conversations with the other falang men they meet. You seem to be making a lot of assumptions about the life and motivations of someone you only met for a few minutes. It's an interesting phrase you use: Intellectual whore This woman should know how many Farangs and Thai women are bashed for their relationships in the West, and be glad if someone still talks to her intellectually. Women here are very honest about sex. If she wants sex with a Farang man she should openly tell, instead of whining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I call this to your attention, you men here, tell ME, that I am an ASS, and have a LOW OPINION of YOU!! How is he going to 'punish you' I think he said he would rather just leave you alone as its less friction.. Is leaving you alone punishment ?? As is stopping and saying hello ??

There are a lot of men to fill all the great jobs in the world too ..why seek any women for those? Let us just be secretaries and maids and nurses ..that has worked for you in the past hasn't it? And when you die at 30 and your children are broke and being raised by a maid in poverty ..who gives a damn? You claim not to be a 'bitter western woman' with any issues to men. I would say reviewing your last 20 posts the evidence says thats not likely to be a true statement. Others report not having these problems, and they are dealing with the same sample set of men.. So perhaps you need to consider that its what you put out is what you get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buddhalady Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Typically - as usual with the majority of male posters on this forum - it's now all about SEX! Suppose it makes a change from beer.... Strangely, the majority of women I've known over decades have always been more interested in intelligent conversation with an intellectual equal than in jumping into bed with someone whose only claim to fame is that he's got a penis! That's so, so '60s - grow up, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of my buddies would address another of our mates wives that way.. I know a couple of guys with western wives / Gfs, sometimes we socialize together sometimes the guy comes out to drink alone where talk might be a little more guy like.. But insulting a guys wife in front of him is liable for a confrontation anywhere. Unsure where your getting these projections from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
