Observations on men from India in Pattaya
[QUOTE=SinCitySinner1;3027177]It's good to hear someone say good things about my people. I am of Indian origin but living in United States. Came to US as a teenager and live here. Work here. Pay taxes here. Looking forward to my first Thailand trip next year and probably will stick to Bangkok for my very first international mongering trip, but eventually I will find my way to Pattaya, Phuket, Chaing Mai etc.
Yes, Indians can be sometimes stingy with their money. It's a hustle culture. What can I say. In India you haggle and negotiate everything. As a young lad growing up I remember my mom and grandma and aunt haggling with street vendors. It's expected. Its ingrained in you from a very young age not to pay the sticker prices and everyone is out there is out to get you. LOL. The prices are artificially elevated in Indian economy as a little bit of negotiation is expected.
As far as being a chubby chaser. Well. I don't like obese women but a little bit of meat on the bones doesn't hurt. I like them skinny too but not to the extent that they look emaciated.[/QUOTE]The only characteristics imparted by the British on Indian culture is their military practices and their arrogance. Indian men are notorious among the Thais for being cheap, particularly with not tipping massage girls. They also always hang out in packs of five or six and it's not unheard of for one individual to negotiate a price for a Thai hooker and after insist that the price is for him and his friends. They'll do the same for a ten baht bus ride. There is a reason that Indian people opened their own clubs on Walking Street and elsewhere. Bouncers would not admit them to most other places for the reasons above and for pure racism.
Look around and you'll see the above characteristics are not exceptions but the rule for the majority of Indians' behavior in Pattaya.
