Rampant stereotyping
One of the wonderful benefits of terminal idiocy is that I am constantly surrounded by smarter and more hip people than myself. And these evolutionary giants never mind taking time out of their busy days to point out my deficiencies. I personally like legions of young politically correct white women.
It always amazes me how people from the West Have such little information about the world outside their own country. Until you live in a foreign country you don’t know about news censorship in the US. The education system teaches politically correct but totally unreal courses in current events and history.
By and large people don’t like Americans anywhere but in America. The rest of the world thinks we are bullies and our culture shallow and trite. They consider our education system with the exception of science and technology completely inadequate. They laugh at American food as unhealthy and totally without craft, flavor or creativity.
It is not easy being an American overseas anymore.
Most of the time I tell people I am a Canadian. People like Canadians.
When I got here I took out a few non Thai women. Foreign women have a tough time getting quality dates here and they are usually happy to go out with a guy here that they would not go out with in their home countries. The Japanese guys will go out with them as will the Thai men. But Thai guys don’t have much money and if you know anything about Japanese guys from Japan. Now someone will insert 20 stories of really nice Japanese men they have met while dancing in Tokyo, ya right I been there.
I took out a 23 year old Canadian grad student, a 26 year old Australian journalist, a 40 something Australian lady who was studying Thai massage and an Israeli chick in her 30’s.
There is nothing I can say about the Israeli chick that would not inflame everyone so lets just say she was one of the scariest women I have ever met. She told me how to field strip an Uzi in the first five minutes of the date and that if I lit up a cigarette in her presence she would break my fingers and I think she was serious.
The other dates were interesting but all wrong. The ladies were so pissed at what was going on around them that by the end of the evening they looked ready to heave.
I just wanted to show them a good time and they had said that they wanted to see how Thai’s were entertained and not the usual tourist stuff. I took them to a comedy club (the best and most expensive in Bangkok), a real Thai restaurant (again expensive and well known) and a Thai entertainment venue.
The comedy here is racist, sexist and stereotypical. The stars of the comedy show were a giant a midget a fat lady a retarded guy and two transvestites. No one said anything politically correct in the two hours of the show. And there were booths with picture windows around the ceiling of the club where the VIP’s enjoyed the show with one of the hostesses who were available for about the same price as a night at an upscale strip club in Tampa, another words big bucks.
At the end of the evening the hostesses all got up on stage and sang songs and were presented with awards and flowers and cash (on stage) for their performances in the VIP booths and everyone clapped. This was a family style club and there were families and children in the audience. The place seated about 1000 people.
The restaurant had about 500 seats and the usual hostesses in case there was a single guy who did not want to eat alone. And there was more than food available to carry out. The hostesses would also dance with your date if you just wanted to eat and drink and watch. How many guys really like to dance? So I bought my lady a roll of dance tickets and she freaked.
The disco had beds instead of chairs and I realized as soon as we walked in that I had made a bad choice of clubs. So that was it for the foreign women, no more.
Did you ever wonder where all the rich guys from China and Japan and Korea go for entertainment? They come to Thailand. They come because they like Thai women better than the women in their own countries. Prostitutes are readily available in all of those countries but they still come to Thailand. Now I think I sound like a person from the pink side. The guys don’t come here for sex. They come here to be with women who like men. No double talk no hidden meanings no laughing about you behind your back no men bashing jokes. There is no sexual harassment in the workplace.
As to why there are no Thai strippers on this forum. It is very difficult for Thai’s to learn how to speak English. Much more difficult than it is for us to learn how to speak Thai. Reading and writing is also very hard because they have a different alphabet. I write letters for about 15 Thai women who can speak pretty good English but have a hard time writing. So they tell me what they want to say and I transcribe it for them. Some of the things I won’t write. No I will not tell him your water buffalo died. You don’t even have a water buffalo just tell him you need money. I won’t tell him you are not dancing in the club because you are dancing in the club. This little service I offer free of charge has given me quite an insight into Thai strippers.
You may think Thai women are really the same under the skin as Western women. That Thai strippers are like American strippers. But they are not. The notion of primal commonality is just an idea. An idea is not a fact.
The fact is that if any of the guys posting on this board spent a week at the Nana Plaza entertainment complex in Bangkok or Walking street in Pattaya they would never spend another dime in an American Strip club.
I tried. I went to some of the best clubs in Tampa. The girls danced and they were pretty and a couple even charming but my heart just wasn’t in it. I was waiting for someone to say hello Mr. Dick. I was waiting for Not or Toi or Daa.
I can’t compartmentalize any more. I don’t want sex without love. I am too emotionally vulnerable. If you want to sleep with me you have to want to marry me or at least be Mia Noi (wife number two). The strip club experience is a fantasy. The club experience in the States stops when the dance stops. In Thailand it stops when you run out of money.
