When some girl did that to me in the movies I asked her to wash her feet if she was going to stick them in my face. She removed them right smartish.

As a former traveler on vans (for visa runs) I have experience with that and indeed found many westerners to have less than pleasant odors in such confined spaces. Yeah, right. Just westerners eh?

Yeah right - just westerners in my experience - so bad that I started to use taxi transport to avoid. Not that we all stink - but know I have been ripe at times - and do not find this often among Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonjelly Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 27 minutes ago, thaibeachlovers said: Why is her gender a factor? Never heard of "women's lib"? Women have fought for and won equality with men ( and I have no argument with that ), but that means they have to accept being treated the same as men. If she wants to behave like an inconsiderate moron, she can be treated like one accordingly. You seem to misunderstand "women's lib". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the first time I hear that it is part of "the etiquette and customs" of France to put one's feet up on the head rest of another seat when that seat is not occupied.

However, some seem to think it means giving women equality in everything, but still treating them as if we lived in Victorian times and they were all "ladies".

No wonder so many Thais dislike Farang and consider them sub standard! Hope she is leaving soon... if not, deport her... maybe there is a portrait of the king above her little toes. WOW I better re-read that article on changing times and attitudes I think we have a live on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She clearly understands and moves one before putting it quickly back with a "fcku you" arrogant glance. Just an arrogant low class smelly French woman with no manners and attitude.

Sorry, just seemed like you were trying to downgrade "a damn good slap" to a "figure of speech" on Colin's behalf. Anyway, enough guys, let's stop all this "she deserves a slap" nonsense, she put her feet (in cleanish looking socks) on an unoccupied headrest for goodness sake..... keep it real.
