there ya go...more on target now....I like LOS mainly because it works for me and people leave you alone here...would I rather be in Vegas or Boulder...yes, but not so much that I'd lose my federal income tax exemption....

I have no problem with local women. I just don't find the ones here attractive mentally or physically. And they don't dig me either...not the quality that I am into.   I have seen some very pretty Thai girls in Vegas and I even dated one a few times...nice girl.  

thanks for your reply...aside from the possible allusion to katoeys...lol...

I don't understand your problem with tax exemption.  All USAID contractors with whom I have worked received their federal tax exemption (up to the limit) no matter their residency.  And I don't see how changing your destination when leaving the conflict zone changes that.  Most people with whom I worked chose Thailand as their getaway as it was within the distance allowed for a free ticket, was inexpensive, and fit their needs for a week or two of relaxation.  I should point out that this included both male and female employees.

I no longer work for the government but a Thai company.  I am a resident of the US.  Yet I still get my tax exemption as the key is that I earn my salary here.  There is some sort of number of day limit of spending time in the US, but anyone who has a real job should not reach that limit.  And when I was in a conflict zone, that requirement was null and void.

As far as what you consider "hot" women, well, that is all a matter of opinion.  To me, hot is more than superficial appearances but attitude.  But given your predilection, I still know a number of "hot" (by your definition) western women who have made their homes here in Thailand and are seemingly quite happy about it.

I don't see where he is concerned about his tax status.  The guy is not an American unless he is a naturalized American.
On Thai Visa there have been a number of posters over the years with the same issue.  They all come from the same country.  I would think this fellow is a remake of one of them.

Born and raised in the States...my dad and his dad and his dad too...I am sure you will stand corrected when you see a picture of me with butterbars on my collar....I don't hold it against you...there are so many bsers among the populace here.

Why do you think I am naturalized? Never been accused of that before..the formality of the diction or sumptin?

"why you are being all jew over her food and hotel." An American would not use that phrase.  Boggles the mind in its crudeness.

How long have you guys been talking about this?  The answer is very simple.  A hot girl that spends her money on bigger boobs generally spends an above average amount of time on hair and make up.  Two hours to put on her face and get her hair straight is normal.  When she walks outside it is all ruined.  The make up starts to drip down her face and her hair frizzes up to the moon. Ladies that waste their money on plastic surgery tend to be less secure about how they look so when the humidity wrecks it all they feel ugly.  
  I like Bangkok.  I'm one of the no make up frumpy ladies.  I look the same in A/C as I do walking down the street.

Perhaps an exotic Thai-Chinese-Portuguese straight out of a clinic would do the trick, I remember one fella here who seemed to share OP's kind of style. Very same kind of style, indeed.

[Aurelllian]

Please note that my offer still stands to establish bonifides.  If you know of a good sushi place in Thong Lo or Tenderlions I will meet one established and trusted member who appears to be  able to string together a coherent sentence. I will pay for the meal and your taxi fare to and fro.

You guys sort it out among yourselves. Preferably for dinner today

Moreover, to establish that I am not taking a pis%. i will prepay/deposit the cost of the meal at the location and you may call prior to departure to make sure that i paid the 60 bucks or whatever for the meal.

I would prefer Tenderloins because the guy that owns it recognizes me and it will be easier to explain why I am putting a deposit down of 2000 bhat at his eaterie.

I do ask that you give me your word that you will honestly report back...as i said, earlier, if I show up with Jennie Mcarthy circa 1996 you cant say she is ugly out of spite.

Any men wanna step up and take this from the virtual to the actual.

Edit; I prefer that the delegate be 40 or under that has been exposed to a cosmopolitan culture so that they can better understand the nuances of status.

Your comment can be correct.

One was a high-maintenance beau the other was a low maintenance beau. There are some girls that are naturally beautiful and others that can be so with right amount of cash.

You are right: a vegas style silicone queen would not fancy the heat and stuff here.

However, both the high maintenance one and the natural one disliked the joint immensely...virtually analogous complaints.


by the way, not every girl pays for her own plastic surgery:)  Most long term gf was a semi pro athlete and DI competitor with a gorgeous face but with the body of a gymnast. she spent four hours  a day on the tennis court and another two in the gym and ate only raw vegetables and chicken breast...once she became a tennis pro I bought her breasts so i could me more sexually attracted to her.

Just a hunch, but maybe the reasons that stunning farang woman don't like Thailand are the same as the reasons why dumpy farang men do like it.

They sell sport silicones for tennis pro's ? Learn something new every day.

[Aurelllian]

lol, you'd be surprised what some Americans say...even to a 1/2 jewish one . read the comments on the WAPO sometime...nauseating.

Many of us may say un pc things which may or may not be part of accepted vernacular.. especially to a loved one in private....i certainly do; i.e, that place is all ghetto or what a  bunch of trailer trash, etc...and I am not racist or crude in public.

A tennis pro means a person that makes a living by teaching tennis at the club level.  Sorry, I should have been clearer.

After her competitive playing days were over it was possible, during a semi pro career of course not...a tennis pro or a golf prom means a tennis or golf teacher.

I can understand your confusion.

Yes I can just imagine a budding tennis pro deciding to have surgery on her chest at the beginning of her career.  Not like you need to protect those pectoral muscles to make top seed.

Edit: Oh I just saw your retraction. I guess I have trouble deciphering your ivy league writing skills.

I'm not sure why you think other people's input would be more valid than the women themselves.  But since you're asking, let me opine a bit.  The topic is rather unique.

I don't think it's overly complicated.  For example, there aren't many hot, young, and wealthy farang MALES in Thailand.  These attractive and successful farang males and females (just being an attractive female is enough) can live most anywhere.  Why would they want to live in Thailand...or Asia, for that matter?  To be an outsider, not familiar with the culture or the language, not having a support network....being at a DISADVANTAGE.  As opposed to being in farangland, where all is familiar, where they can be celebrated, and clearly enjoy the advantages of their standing in society.  Pretty clear, I think.

Aside from Bangkok being a generally pretty steamy hot and horrible (imo) place to hang out, and the OP's obvious superficiality...i guess some possibilities might be..

If you are not a loner, and enjoy the company of others, then LOS may be a difficult place for some people.
If you are intelligent farang (man or woman), then truthfully, finding intelligent articulate like-minded people is not easy.
If you are attractive woman, then finding attractive interesting respectable (ie: without major hang-ups) company is also not so easy (in general).
Many guys here have ginormous chips on their shoulders regarding western woman..a known fact. Some would even take pleasure in playing disgusted at an attractive western woman, even if shes 100 times out of his league, purely for some lame sense of satisfactions.
Many farang guys here are not what you would call "eye candy". Even if attached, its still pleasant to be around attractive opposite sexes.
Fact is that Thailand attracts quite a lot of men that arent real catches in the west (not saying ALL ok! Just that it does..be honest!).
Even on the Thai front, there isnt a lot of real deep conversations around...(in general! ..before i get slammed).
If you are are an attractive woman, with some level of intelligence its better if you prefer a more loner life-style. For, if you looking for attractive, like-minded company, particularly male, you are pretty much buggered.

Sorry......but I just can't stop feeling that this thread places sooooo much importance on appearances.

Probably because "I just don't get it" as with the fashion industry, I just find it totally plastic.

There we have it, from TV's hot farang.

Can we have another picture of your legs, please?

No, it's industry specific jargon.

It was not a retraction but an explanation for those unfamiliar with the culture of the sport.

Perfectly understandable mistake.

Mam, the fashion industry is about anorexia and photo shop more than it is about plastic....
