That's why we have places like this, to discuss the insanity that is America. TG's have otter far more interesting uses, imo. :D

Last night i went out to the local pub/club in Oz. The girls there outnumber the men, true.
Throughout the evening i approaced several swf's asking them would they like a drink, hello my names olmate ect ect, just trying to create general chit chat. All goes well for several minutes but there seemed to be a common theme of questions asked of me by all these females, what do i do for work N01, what suburb do i live in, do i own my own house ect ect.
For work im a filthy dirty mechanic, i dont live in the best of suburbs and no i dont have my own house, as i would die before i could pay it off.
To me nowdays in oz women are the top predator and if i cant fit the mold then i may as well give up and alas i have.
I really enjoy visiting asian countries especially los, as i find the women just as gorgeous as the ones at home, but way more accepting of who i am. I dont have to be a BMW driving white collar muscle bound beautiful person which unfortunately in oz is so commonly stereotyped by our media.
Now as you can read from my adventures of last night i have plenty of love for farang women, they just dont have any for me.
They create such big expectations of what a man should be in western society nowdays, and yet they crack the s$#ts when they see a farang man with a beatiful asian woman under his arm and he instantly gets branded as a dirty old man, sleaze ect.
My belief is love has no bounderies, no borders, religion, race or sex can get in the way, and if people show hostility towards this, then i guess they should be prepared to get some back.

Good posts by both JW and Olmate. I think the problems JW describes are easier to overcome when living outside of Thailand, when the Thai wife or husband has access to a wider range of media discussion. Olmate's comments seem to reflect the situation for many in the UK, especially as you get older (i.e. thirties and up).

Have you never considered lying? :D Everyone does it in the LoS, it's second nature to the Thais. :(

:D There is the same question for Farang women in Vietnam.

First story: There is a girl known as princess of Expat community here but no way she can find a long term Farang boyfriend. Blame on her beauty that she is too good for all the guys around or blame on all the guys around her who all stick together with a VNese GF?

4 years already in VN that blonde princess still alone!

Second one: My colleague and my good friend, a French one, she is young, sucessful, look OK... and no BF. SHe has been living here for 3 years. Oh yes She has one VNese BF once but he dumbed her somehow.
What's wrong here:

- All guys can feel that she is not going for a "fun" relationship
- She is another independent girl u can find at home? Why here?

Third one:

Many VNese girl who is success at work, smart, independent... can not find a BF. ( or maybe success and smart don't go along with beauty?)

- Vnese boys they don't like a stronger women than them who will decide things and stuff.
- Farang guy they only pick up girls which is easy to handle.

SO

Despressed is not the solution but... whatelse can women do?

Just don't general all in one conclution. I think don't blame the guys, just keep looking until you find the right one.

This year is not my lucky year in love anyway. Reading this post give me headache

I agree with linktolinh, you can't take against everyone of a particular gender or race because of some bad experiences, you have to keep an open mind & wait for the right one.
Olmate, you're obviously meeting the wrong girls (or are all Western women in their own countries like that? I've lost touch, having been in Asia for 12 years). All I can say is my boyfriend had a lot less (materially) than me & that never made the slightest difference & I know a lot of women of the same mind.
It's sad, actually that this thread is even an issue.

Whilst I agree that some Western women can be b--ches, it saddens me to know that they ruin it for the rest of us farang girls :(

I think Vietnam sounds interesting! I think i would like to meet a couple of your friends linktolinh. I like women who are independant and want to do their own thing, i cant stand the old "up to you" thing. Very frustrating.

Why is it I wonder that you see so few middle-aged farang women with beautiful young Thai men on their arms? No, really. It is touching to see so many examples of true farang-Thai love...

Because the middle aged farang women are all over at holiday destinations in west Africa getting their rocks off with young, black studs instead!

And if you think female sex tourists don't exist then check out this link to a very recent article on the subject:

I'd just like to ask one question of the guys on this thread who were putting down Western women due to their own past relationships & were saying what a vast improvement Thai women are. Be honest now, are you comparing like with like? For instance, if the Farang woman you had the bad experience with was 50-odd, is the same true of your Thai wife or girlfriend, or is she considerably younger? I'm particularly interested in the aspect of looks (as our cellulite, fat asses & pasty skins have been mentioned in this thread). I have no problems with relationships between two people of any colour, creed, gender or age, but let's be fair here. How many of you guys could successfully be compared with men 30 years younger than yourselves, no matter what race?!? :?
I find it sad & indefensible that so many Thai wives or girlfriends have been subject to rude or hostile treatment from older Western women. I guess much of that is due to media portrayal, wrong though that is. It may interest you to know that I received the same sort of stares & comments when I first started going out with my boyfriend, but from older Thais, not Westerners. I guess misunderstandings & bigotry can come from all directions...

Not sure if I was particluarly putting down Western women and I can of course only speak for my own situation but to answer your question Dawn, yes I am comparing like for like as you put it. It was not my wife's physical attributes that attracted me really though, it was far more complex than that but then both my wife and I are about the same age and a search for a wife or even sex was not what brought me to Thailand.

I have to say that I am far happier than in my previous ten year relationship with a farang woman despite all the things that annoy me about the Thai 'mindset!'

:banghead:

Having said that, I'm not sure that the relative happiness is because Mrs Jaime is Thai or not. Maybe she could be from anywhere and the compatibility would still be the same.

Didn't actually mean you Jaime, as I didn't find anything you said insulting. I'm really glad your relationship is so happy, whether the reason is your differences or similarities with your wife. Chok dee ka! :)

As a young (28) farang lady who has lived in Thailand for 4 years I can honestly say that Thailand is one of the worst places for self - esteem for a woman (young or old). Firstly as a British size 10 - 12, i have resigned myself to being only able to purchase XXL clothes, with the sweet Thai sales barrage of "we have big size for you madam"! I don't know how the "large" ladies must feel!
Most farang men are here with their eyes and heads filled with the promise of Thai love - and yes I agree Thai women are alot less hassle to hook up with here - they all know the score. Farang man brings the money (not necessarily in a prostitution transaction) and Thai women knows what is expected of her.
I have my own business and direction for Life and that can be difficult if not down right challenging for male relationships.
Many of my fellow farang female friends here feel the same way.
However on the plus side the lack of male pre-occupation has lead to a very full and enriching life for me which is why I am still here 4 years on!

:thumb:
Im sure you will find a man who will love you for what you are!! :D
you sound like an inteligent person who I wuld love to hang around, :cheers:

Me myself in places like pattaya I got a lots oh hassle from men (as I love myself and are a wery open minded person)
who say what I think.

I wuld never date a farang man who hang around in bars going home with a different woman every week. :cry:

Point me to a intelegent man in the 50-60 farang or thai who dont have "10 thai girlfriends" and i will do a date with him) :P

most men in (farangs) in pattaya for ex things that farang woman shuld stay home..
thats one of the reason I will probebly chose hua hin in stead..
