For Thanksgiving, I'm grateful for *drumroll* Thailand!
On this day of thanksgiving I'd like to share what I'm thankful for. I'm thankful for Thailand! It's about the power dynamics. That's what it's all about ain't it folks? More often than not, I feel like I'm being stamped down, walked all over and just barely getting by. You look at your 401 k, your IRA, paying your shitty mortgage, up to your neck in medical bills, looking back at your miserable life, and you think to yourself, God. Life sucks. But then you go to Thailand, and you realize the chicks you're banging have way more terrible lives than you do. Much more than you could even begin to conceive, cause think about it. Would they really be banging your ugly mug if they had the cash not to? What kind of world exists where opportunities are so lacking, and situations are such that they have to resort to sex to pay the bills? As shitty as my life is, that's why I love Thailand so much, cause when I'm there, I can be reminded of how much worse other people have it. Hence, it's all about the power dynamics. We get pushed around at work, we have to suck up to management, etc. But when we be in Thailand, we hold the cards. Even in Europe, some of the chicks doing this for a living, are better than most of us financially, believe you me. But in Thailand, odds are pretty high, 9 out of 10 chicks there you pay for sex are way worse off than joe average flying in from the states, I'm just saying. We don't want to admit it fellas, but it's a form of poverty tourism. Us throwing our weight around, and for some folks from north America, quite literally fat ass dudes throwing their weight around, hah! The kind of mindset where you're there to gawp at the poor brown people, but be all up in their culture and stuff, but really it's all about just lording it over them. That's why I'm saying fellas. Don't waste your lives. Go to South East Asia. I'm not quite there yet financially, but by God, when I can, believe you me, I will.
How many wars are happening right now? There's so much uncertainty in the world. And here I am counting the days until I can retire near to Thailand. Why can't I risk it all and do it now or soon, I just don't know. Decades and decades of being brainwashed into thinking you need x amount of cash just to get by, when what if, maybe, just maybe you can get by on less? Then again, you don't want to end up like some of them white dudes homeless on the streets of Pattaya. Reports were coming in about them some 10 plus years ago, odds are most of them are dead by now, but then again, there's not many places better than Thailand to die in. I'm thankful for Bangkok! The city that exists for one reason, and one reason only.
