Guest Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 p127: "which book that have been written with a T middle class point of view? Just curious." Very few have been translated into English (none into French that I know of :-) ). The one I liked is "Time in the bottle" (Welaa nai kuat gaew), the author escapes me. Published in "Thai Modern Classics" series in Thailand, probably OOP at this point. An interesting book, and from what I read, it is reflective of the issues Thai middle class was facing in the 70s. The issues may have changed since then, but the middle class probably hasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 GTG posts on 2002/07013: "We get intimate with them. >She crosses the road to avoid them. Can I get intimate with them too? Just joking ! That's not true. How can I do that? They are everywhere. Otherwise I have to cross the road every 30 sec." Wow, you must be perfect. How good of you to put up with all those inferior women in Thailand that you see. Imagine the nerve of them to be on the same sidewalk as you.

think_too_mut Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 HT, My estimation that an average board member has seen closely 10 girls in his career was overly conservative. I think we have seen most if not all of 100K bgs. Still, I understand, there is always work to be done...hope fellows don't find it too hard...

think_too_mut Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 >>We love them. >She hates them. GTG:>I don't like SOME of them. TTM, do you have EARS? The trouble is, I personally know one of the "some" that you don't like. Thalenoi knows another one. Cent another one. What the three girls all have in common is - farangs are happy with them and they are happy with their farangs. And they were bar girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodthaigirl Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 BlackStack, That was a joke. I won't do that(crossing the road to avoid them), ok? GTG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 Hi TTM, That would mean every one of 3,000 board members here would have had to have been with 35 "different" girls, each. Not even close.... A large number of our 3,000 members haven't even been to Thailand yet, and many for just a few visits. There are many other factors that would lead me to believe that not even more than 10% (at any given moment) have been serviced by us, collectively. And remember that 100K is "active" prostitutes. Add in former B/G's, and the number gets much, much larger. Of course I can't prove any of this, but just what I believe to be the case.

bibblies Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 I don't think that GoodThaiGirl does give as much "value for money" as some suggest. She's here with her own agenda - to correct the impression of Thailand that we farangs might get of "good" Thai women from going to a few whore-ridden bars. As if we're too dopey to have worked that out for ourselves! Apart from that, she doesn't reveal very much when the interesting questions arise. For instance, I can remember someone asking her views on sex before marriage. She declined to answer this enormously controversial question (not!), with the excuse that it was too risky now that her identity was now known (to a few farangs who happened to be at Woodstock the night she showed up!) Despite her mission, we never get any revealing insights into her life, or that of a "good" thai girl. When she chided posters about their relationships, some interested parties asked (sincerely, I think) for her notes on a typical good Thai girl/good Thai boy relationship. Will they come? My arse, will they! If you want someone that offers value for money, just take a look at this post from jasmine. Fantastic! http://board.nanaplaza.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB1&Number=85008&page=&view=&sb=&o=&fpart=3&vc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Radley Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 The question about goodthaigirl ? goodthaiboy relationships was slightly tongue-in-cheek, and I didn?t really expect GTG to answer. Was just trying to make the point ? how would she feel to have her relationships scrutinised on the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bibblies Posted July 14, 2002 Report Share Posted July 14, 2002 But, like many tongue-in-cheek points, it was a good one, it reminded me of how little we really see of her life and I'm using it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
