Not Telling
It might be easier in the long term to simply go for penis reduction surgery. There are a number of clinics in Bangkok that specialize in this procedure.

A Russian couple were walking down the street in Moscow one night, when
the man felt a drop hit his nose.
"I think it's raining", he said to his wife.
"No, that felt more like snow to me", she replied.
"No, I'm sure it was just rain" he said.
Well, as these things go, they were about to have a major argument about
whether it was raining or snowing. Just then they saw a Communist Party
official walking toward them.
"Let's not fight about it", the man said, "Let's ask Comrade Rudolph
whether
it's officially raining or snowing".
As the official approached, the man said, "Tell us, Comrade Rudolph, is
it
officially raining or snowing?"
"It's raining, of course", he replied, and walked on.
But the woman insisted: "I know that felt like snow!", to which the man
quietly replied:
"Rudolph the Red knows rain, dear".

Jay_Jay, can you recommend any forums or blogs?
Youtube isn't only great for watching clips, you can also pick up alot of colloquial Thai from reading the comments (which will of course be about the clip you've just watched, aiding comprehension both ways). If the clips are too fast, you can always download them us Realplayer SP and then watch them using VCL media player at a much slower speed. Here's a site with Thai lakorns/soaps with English subtitles, if you can stand it: Introducing Lyn’s Lakorn Blog » Lakorn w/Eng Subs . If anybody knows where I can find ones with Thai subtitles instead of English, please tell me, as that would be much better for me.
Dubbed foreign films can be good because they almost always have the original sountrack, plus a Thai dubbed one, as well as Thai and English subtitles. Plus they're less than 100B if you choose the older ones. I wouldn't be too reliant on these though, as not only does the dubbed Thai seem a bit unnatural at times, but sometimes the subtitles are paraphrased beyond recognition. I'm not just speaking of differences between the English and Thai here, which is understandable, but the difference between the Thai soundtrack and the Thai subtitles. It's almost as if the people who wrote the subtitles delibirately tried to rephrase everything to make their job more interesting. I bought Madagascar and The Jungle Book 2 thinking kids films would be easier than adult films (plus these both have Mandarin subtitles as well, which is a bonus as I'm also learning Chinese), but the subtitle work is awful in this regard. I've just worked through the Dr Zhivago DVD (mini-series, not the film), which seems to be available everywhere for about 80B, and the subtitles and speech match almost exactly. At 3 and a half hours long, it's pretty good value.
