As a side point to clarify my standing on the issue and generalizations made on both parts of the men and the women, I would like to say a few things.

First one must understand the type of person Seeker was speaking about. I can only assume he is talking about the 'losers' who spend their time in PatPong, enjoying the 'night-life' that certain areas offer. This person is a loser not because of what they are doing so much as what they are not doing.

They are not trying to experience Thailand and the many things the country has to offer. They are interested in one thing in Thailand and that is nearly it. They do not make any attempt to learn about the Thai people or language, with of course exception to the word Tao Rai. Nor do they care about the well-being of the Thai ladies as they often choose not to protect anything, in any way.

These people are losers, anyone who denies this really needs to question themselves as to why they are at a place like this website instead of yahoo.com

Obviously the man who marries a Thai woman is not the loser that we are speaking of. As a matter of fact, I am sure that even Seeker may find a lovely young woman to have him as a husband. That certainly would not put Seeker in the place deserving the title loser. We know he has gone much deeper into the culture to deserve such a title.

But the title loser certainly does apply to a large majority of men in Thailand currently and those holding tickets, saving their money to enjoy each and every night of their getting things and doing things they can not do in their home land.

I agree with your last paragraph Visionchaser, that is why I felt the need to reply with above. The people who use these forums clearly are not after one thing in Thailand. We all dig very hard into the culture, I think it was important to make it very clear that there is a difference in the man who is married to a Thai woman, and the man 'in search of a Thai wife'.
