This is the most bizarre scene I can recall from all of Anthony Bourdain's many travels. Check out how he checks out the Thai honey in his "dreams" hehehe. RIP Tony!

Thanks for sharing this. Was thinking a lot about this. Would be really nice, for many reasons, to have a work that required business trips to a nice, friendly and warm place. What kind of automotive jobs is good for traveling here? What kind of companies or positions to work in? (you can just hint what company, there aren't to many manufacturers or suppliers I guess).

Hi.

Sorry for the late answer as I don't usually come to this chat. My position is in new car sales and manufactors will have trips to variius locations O / S. For example some of my colleagues have been to Vegas and Paris and Thailand is one of them as well due to a lot os SUVs and Utility vehicles being manufactored there. I tell my wife that I qualified and I'm off for 7 to 8 days with her blessing and I don't have be aware of time zones etc.

I'm gettingvaway this time for only 6 due to changing companies and I have told her I need to go to another majir city here for product training so I have to be on my game regarding time zones etc. If the desire is there you can find a way.

I hooe this helps.

Rob.

I'm assuming the supervisor at home is the wife? My work is in the automotive industry and fortunately for me there are a lot of factories around Pattaya and Bangkok so I have a good reason to go even though my position doesn't need me top go LOL. Unfortunately my wife would not allow me to go if it involved a friend in any circumstances because she knows there will be trouble afoot.

Good luck.

So, I hit it off online (dating app) w a Thai girl to the point she sent me pretty sexy pics and we even got each other off once via video chat. I was eager to meet her a few months later, when I arrived. Hired a car and driver and picked her up at a public place, we had coffee, then went for lunch and then a long walk and talk by the seaside.

The strange thing was that when we were in the car she held my hand, even played with the hair on my calves in a cute, affectionate way (curious about these hairy farang). I was being very cautious, no intention to fuck her on the first date but sure, assumed it would happen.

When we dropped her close to her house (she didn't yet want me to see her house), I tried to hug her and she recoiled. Texted me later that it was very inappropriate to do that in public! I was dumbstruck: my driver had surely seen her caressing my legs and us holding hands in the car, but not even a hug in public?

This was only two years ago, and she was 29 w an eight year old kid. Long story short she ended up meeting some toothless butterfly Swede in Pattaya and I found out and told her to fuck off. Probably didn't help that I was married and she knoew I wouldn't change that situation for her!

It is totally normal for a Thai girl not to want to hug in public. Your driver seeing you is nothing but she did not want the neighbours to all start gossiping that she is a hooker.

Thai girl with Farang can be assumed to be a hooker. 80%+ of time that will be correct. Not always.

I similarly are reticent to be seen misbehaving with Thai girls where I live. Other Thais do not know how to mind their own business.

Pattaya is a special place where wayward behaviour becomes the norm. She does not care what she is seen doing in Pattaya perhaps. Many Thais like Pattaya because they feel free not to be proper and let their hair down.

You know, it's a funny thing about women in general and especially Thai women I believe in that they are actually telegraphing the very weakness they know they are most prone to fall victim to by what they warn men against doing. Can't tell you how often the Thai dating site girl who goes on and on in her profile that she is not here for fun, not here to be our "holiday girlfriend", wants to save herself for that one special serious longterm relationship and so on is quite often the absolute easiest one to get into my room and naked on my bed on the very first meeting, even a midday coffee meeting!

It seems they know very well how easy they are to bed down and therefore try their best to convince you not to go there with them precisely because they know how easily they would fall if you tried. Like it has happened to them time and time again, they know how they are and the only way they might be able to keep up that prim and proper front is if the guy they just met doesn't even try because she has so sternly warned him not to. LOL.

So here is this 29 year old single mom since she was 21 lecturing you on how prim and proper she is about hugging in public yet she meets some toothless monger in Pattaya of all places and flies right into that flame without hesitation. LOL.

When I walk around town I leave it to the girl to take my hand, indicate she wants to walk holding hands or not, up to her. 90%+ of the time they transfer whatever they were carrying in the hand on my side to the other hand in order to free it up and reach over to take my hand in theirs. I can't see myself jerking my hand away, recoiling in horror or waving off the attempt because of how it might look to anyone else.

Of course, I will go ahead and initiate it after I have been with a girl 2-3 times and she has made it clear doing it is very much her preference.

So you'd have to ask the girls why they want to be seen walking hand in hand with a man at least twice their age but far more often closer to three times their age.

I don't get the "desperately in love" thing. I think it merely establishes for any potentially interested third parties that we are a romantically involved couple, on a date and not just friends, neighbors or co-workers out for a stroll. Otherwise one or both of you might get hit on with one in-your-face unsolicited hello from an interested third party every 10 minutes.

Which is why doing it is more often the girl's idea than the man's in my opinion. See the wallet comment below. Lol

Ha ha. Not quite establishing a romantic involvement. LOL Maybe a sexual one. However I basically agree.

25 years ago, many Thai girls would not like to hold a Farang's hand. They were shy and it looked too obvious they were hookers. Thai girls walked hand in hand with each other and even Thai guys could walk hand in hand no big deal. Thai guys can share a double bed no big deal even they are not gay and nothing sexual will happen. LOL Two Farang guys, no way! It is just a cultural thing. I have slept in a double bed with a Thai girl (not girlfriend) like brother and sister with no sexual involvement also. Usually this means you know each other very well though.

"Who cares. " I don't care, but it still looks ridiculous to me (could be a cultural thing). Doesn't even need to be a man twice her age. Walking hand in hand is for young people who are desperately in love. I hope you guys don't fall in love with the girls in Pattaya or you end up buying a herd of water buffaloes.

"I think you are a younger man. " Well, I feel young, but I was born in the 60's.

Why am I "looking at old man and not looking at young women?" There must be something wrong with my eyes, because I see them both and many other things at the same time.

"Because they do look the same to me and I don't want take the wrong one home. " This is a good excuse to walk hand in hand with your rental girlfriend.

Must be the same reason I always need to know where my wallet is and I don't want to lose it.

[Nordico]

Because they do look the same to me and I don't want take the wrong one home LOL. Who cares! Different people like to show different levels of intimacy, do you kiss the girls or let them hug you pre or post coitus? I think you are a younger man and you do not possess the insight to understand. My question to you is why are you looking at old man and not looking at young women?

Can someone tell me why some men walk hand in hand with the girls half their age. It's something for teenagers and looks ridiculous.

When I walk around town I leave it to the girl to take my hand, indicate she wants to walk holding hands or not, up to her. 90%+ of the time they transfer whatever they were carrying in the hand on my side to the other hand in order to free it up and reach over to take my hand in theirs.

Can someone tell me why Thais have no commonsense, logic, general knowledge or intellectual curiosity. Is it their poor schooling, culture, laziness or what? Their average IQ of 90 is around 10 points below the average American, which is a lot.

I saw some footage of the Womens World Cup qualifier match between Thailand and Australia. My god those Thai women were ugly. A team full of butch lesbians. Yikes.

Could be katoey. And still couldn't best ghe Aussies LOL.

[Engine Driver]

You got it wrong. Thai men have no qualms about cavorting with prostitutes and low standard of morals (for some views), however more behind closed doors. It is the standard of behaviour of Farangs (and way they dress) that makes them looks bad. Lacking politeness, arrogance, looking for trouble, very loud discussion of things not suitable in public, and the British are champions of loud foul language in my experience here. Then there is the issue of how often foreigners might take a shower to get rid of their stink.

No seriously, I get what you mean. They would seem to be low class people with no morals, shamelessly and openly cavorting with prostitutes.

I don't know why you corrected me. The key word was "openly" in my statement. I suggest you kindly RTFF properly before being critical of a native English speakers post.
