Is it the said truth that within a Thai family, the daughter is/are always given the least in areas of education and decision of autonomy?

That is an old-fashioned view of women in Thailand. Things have changed over the years and you have professional women in all walks of life from parliament to head of industries. You seem to have a poor view of Thai women. Maybe you are meeting them in the wrong circles. Most women I know are intelligent and fully capable of looking after themselves. Many of them are actually running the show and their families couldn't survive without them. I cannot wait until we have a female prime minister and then we will see some fireworks.
