falangboy Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Please excuse my ignorance as I've never had a relationship with a thai woman but.. I've heard from a couple of people I trust that Thai women have a certain acceptance of extra marital/relationship encounters. Sort of like gays in the military (don't ask don't tell). I was wondering if anyone had any insight in to this. I'd especially like to hear from the Thai women. I've heard the duck story regarding cheating husbands and I've also heard that women expect that men will eventually have sex with someone else. What's your thoughts?

Japhrodisiac Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 I think that says it all. It's human nature to be jealous when we love someone, and I dont think any modern culture accepts cheating. Check out the girls' posts to confirm this.

ling_dtua_khaao Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 As I've read many times, in past centuries it was common for Thai men of various social ranks (not just the richest) to take concubines in addition to their wives. This tradition has continued in a way into modern times, where it seems a lot of Thai men take mistresses. As my girlfriend says, "Every Thai guy in his 30s gets a mia noi (= minor wife, mistress)." Since it seems to be so prevalent, there must be a greater acceptance of it in many cases. (And because there are also more cases of mistresses, there are also more cases of angry women who don't accept it, and hence more cases of penile detachment. :twisted: Good luck knowing in advance which way your girl will swing! Does she swing with the knife in her left hand or her right? ) But that doesn't mean the women have to like it! I don't know of any Thai girl I've talked to who says she wouldn't care that a guy she loves has other women. As my girlfriend said when I was just getting to know her, "If I love him enough I will accept it, but it will hurt and I won't like it." She doesn't remind me of that though - doesn't want me to try it out I guess --Ling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falangboy Posted August 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2004 I realize that no woman accepts cheating as westerners describe it, I've known a couple of guys living in BKK who had girlfriends who said they understand a man's desires to "fool around" if you will and have agreed to accept it. I can't say how trustworthy these stories are but it seems to me that there are quite a few thai guys that I know who spend a lot of time satisfying their desires. It struck me as interesting and I wanted to hear from some ladies on the board if this is really the case and if it "tolerable" to them. Again, I realize that in the end it's not really acceptable but it seems that in many cases the answer is more like the earlier remark I made regarding gays in the military... "Don't ask. Don't Tell". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S123arpedon Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I know married couple here where the wives know the husband is playing around but they say: 1 - Dont get any feelings for them (sex only) 2 - Dont bring it into the home 3 - Dont do anything to make me lose "face" I guess its the society that you are brought up in whether even something like this is tolerable. Young women today just wont accept this anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
