The last page was pretty lol

Must be hard to live with yourself knowing that you're a sex tourist too.

I've lived in Pattaya the last 2 months, and afaik there is a few other poker players here as well. Only thing is that I have barely played any poker so far, go figure haha!

I think Phucket is really nice.

yup thats me! I'm a huge sex tourist! You can find me grinding the beer bars starting at 1pm at Nana daily! Later in the day you can find me at a pub with my mates, before we hit up the gogos. I love Thailand because you can have a different girl every night, and never pay over 1k!

at first i just thought acer was a unfunny troll

if thats not the case then that guy has got some serious hangups, needs to get over himself and realise he is nothing special just another farang

Wheres the best place for poker houses, muy thai training and awesome nightlife/hoes at mo? Please tell me there's a magical place with all 3

Also any tricks to avoiding the laws on gambling, been ne problems?

Not lookin for a pokerhouse but hopefully doing a 3+ month stay out there in January, any advice much appreciated, thx

^you asked that in the other thread, where the same ppl that read this thread are, and 3 posters answered

Agree with this. I came to Thailand with a Thai family living in US that were all going back to visit family in Isaan fell in love with it here and moved here. Pretty naive but it wasn't until well later I even realized Thailand was a tourist destination or there was a known sex industry here (very naive to all that).

Now I live here married with children (my wife worked doing electronics for 10,000 baht per month - never in a bar), pay my taxes here, have car, license etc. this is home. Anyways.. for a while I was going to Phuket, Chiang Mai, and Bangkok for holidays just because that's where people go and the flights are easy. After finally visiting non tourist places I was like wow, this is like home in terms of attitude, pricing etc, just nicer with beaches, history or w/e.

I find Thailand an amazing and fascinating country with such rich history. I also know school kids picked on because mother is a prostitute (it's not as social acceptable in all circles like everyone assumes it is - though I've seen that side too). Anyways not really the point of the post though. There is so much neat history, things to do, great food, cool people etc. I think most miss so much there is to experience here really due to marketing and tourist traps. The attitude is insanely different in tourist cities than non. Seriously, before getting married it was kinda neat talking to chicks who couldn't speak English and were super afraid of farangs or fathers who said no. Great experience I'm glad I had for just a little a while.

Anyways love this country in so many ways, dislike some things - but true of anywhere right? Just figured I'd chime in agreeing that the tourist area attitude is insanely different. And also to make a point: 19 out of 20 Isaan woman have no interest in prostitution, though probably 6 out of 10 think marrying a farang is a good plan for wealth - which some consider similar, but still leaves 40% that wouldn't even so much as consider. While probably true that's the highest concentration in the sex industry is Isaan natives, it gives a false impression that this is like a hooker breeding ground. A lot of men go off to work doing construction, woman in factories and things just like, and some not finding a job end up in that, some get recruited by friends, some are tricked, and some just want wealth and look forward to it. It's a bad rap though, honest working Isaan chicks are like the coolest chicks of any country I ever met. The honest are also great at managing money, don't stress much, more or less the complete opposite of the west.

lol jspill i was sure i recognised that question

Amazing Doco about Thai-Farang couples, in Danish but English subtitles.

on the other hand, when he's trolling, i think he's hilarious

I mean, once you've stayed in Khao San AND Sukhumvit, you've basically seen it all right?

Do you live on thailand?

Need some advice.. Here is my post: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/92...mates-1180334/

So you just turned into a sexpat instead of a sex tourist, big deal......

Can you please stop posting the same **** all over the place. Its frustrating.

If I was looking for people to live with it would make me think you are an idiot and not want you as a roommate.

Thanks.

Jajaja relax bro.. sorry

Sexpats are better than sex tourists ldo

hahaha seriously ?

well maybe i post in those threads because i am going back to thailand next month and am considering a long-term move over there.

if you searched my previous posts you would know that.



oh wait you did decide to search my previous posts, that would explain the ninja edit.

i guess you must have realised how rediculous your previous post was. you wouldnt want to come off looking super ignorant and annoyed i suppose.

i never claimed i have more experience of thailand than you, i just think you need to get over yourself and stop thinking you know it all.

i think billy put it very well when he said:

but i guess its easy for you to ignore that and try to have a pop at me because I DON'T EVEN LIVE HERE

What do I need to know before I rent a bike in Phuket? Or try to talk me out of it, I know its a terrible idea but scooters just aren't the same.

Other than checking my insurance to make sure Im covered, probably worth giving them a call? Ive heard I probably wont be covered because I dont have a thai drivers license and a few other loopholes.
