I know a guy in his late 60s he is a taxi driver has a thai wife 20s and he changes them every few years.
Does he use surgery, or is it behavioural...cosmetic...or just their wardrobe?
Do they wear nappies?

'Imagine being married to a woman... who isn't a woman' I assume he meant.

I did mention earlier that I was surprised we hadn't seen the usual few hilarious and original jokes asking whether the wife in question is actually a man, almost compulsory in any thread about Asian women.

It was too good to be true.... rolleyes
Arent some whoosh parrots needed here?? Isnt he just making a gag about imagine being married to a girl that doesn't go down well. At least that's how I read it, found it funny too.

I wasn't even being that lude. smile

The OP said 'imagine if you're wife can't go to a nice bar in the UK without being propositioned by a Russian or Indian', living in London with lots of under-evolved, new money Russians and Asians having them crudely trying to buy sex is just what they do.

It reminds me of the ugly bird who always complains that her fit mate gets drinks bought for her all night and she doesn't. biggrin

The two solutions to this problem (not that it's a problem, hence my post) is to either avoid the establishments where the slow evolvers are spending or marry a Biffa.

Sadly Matt Lucas and his 'ting tong' sketches have reinforced these stereotypes. In years to come we will look back on his show in the same way we regard Alf garnet and other such 'classics' from the 70s and wonder how we allowed such tripe to be transmitted.
Indeed. Likewise the "I'm a Layyyydeee" sketches have reinforced the stereotypes of transvestites and M2F transgender women.

Mind you, a lot of Little Britain is pandering to stereotypes - Middle England women are hateful racist bigots, people in wheelchairs are faking it, gay people are horrendously camp, etc.

Imagine if that was your wife or girlfriend out in some nice bar in the UK and guys from India or Russia felt it was okay to come up and offer them money. I can't imagine it would go down well.....

Seems everybody is reading it a bit differently. I've read and re-read, nothing is obvious, just sounds like some weird comment about what if your wife doesn't look like a hooker more than anything, if nobody offers her money in a pub..... confusedconfused

it really does ps off a lot of people here though that a lot of westerners seem to think all APac women are prostitutes or after a western guy for his money.

My wife speaks three languages, privately educated, was managing a boutique hotel and has a lovely house here- in which we now live. Most of her mates are in business of some sort or another, from container shipping to graphic design. However on occasion when they go out they have been approached by western guys and offered money for sex.
Mate, you do not need to explain yourself to the xenophobic fktards on this thread. You don't have to say "oh my wife is (insert brown skinned country) but she has this and she has that. That is nobody's business, except you and your wife.

Normal people don't think, "oh a brown girl with a white guy, she must be an ex hooker". The xenophobic fktards on this thread think like that, not normal people. You need explain nothing.

The cultural difference is so huge why would a 'normal' Thai 'good girl' want to be with a western man, or vice versa?

A bar girl / western....
Mmmmmm, interesting. A couple of my white as a packet of flour make cousins are married to Thai women. Next time I see them, I'll have to enquire as to are they sure they aren't still working as hookers and secretly sending money to their secret Thai husbands back in Thailand.

Or maybe you just have no fking clue.

^ white flour wink
Ok, maybe the white flour packet isn't always white.

Anyway, I thought we had gone beyond the Thai/Indo/Filipino women's are all money grabbing ex (or still current) hookers unless proven otherwise , but nope, a week away from this thread and it still keeps on giving.

I never get stared at as I don't care what random total strangers think.

It makes me sad though when good friends tell me what's happened to them.

Low education = racism and average education = casual racism where we should all share casual jokes apparently. I don't. Little Britain is a commercial business to make money.

Well, update to my previous post aboit my Thai marriage to the girl of my dreams who I married six months ago. Today I met her close friend who introduced us. I was told that, before she met me,she worked in a local bar as a bar girl, ( Thai description of a prostitute ), has a Thai husband who she sends money to, as he doesn't work....just plays around with local girls in her home village.
Despite all her declerations of love over the two years prior to getting married, she only married to get the 'dowry' of 1 million baht, approx £20,000 , I gave her to build a house for the family, so they could move from the cow shed they all lived in!

Bit shell shocked to find that a girl I loved and respected and thought I knew totally and wanted to spend my life with turns out to be a we. And I have lived in Thailand for five years and thought I was wordly wise and would never be duped !

We are still married, both Thai wedding and legal ceromony, and it seems she will not divorce me as she thinks she will get all my wordly goods when I shuffle off to the Temple.
Thai law is different to the UK, as divorced couple must share all assests aquired since marriage, and previous assets are protected, such as house pension etc.

So now I am off to a good lawyer to have a will drafted to leave everything to my sister in the UK, so she gets nothing.

But, still had some good memories of life with her, despite now finding that it was all a shell relationship, and will just have to exercise more caution with the next lovely that comes along !

This is Thailand and the temptation is there every day.........
Missed this completely earlier. Wow, that's tough, sorry mate. frown

If all you can get in the real world is some flabby old trout your own age, then swapping to a sweet young tight, Asian girl, who doesn't speak much, well, I can't see a downside.

Even though there's no actually love or feelings from her side and she's only in it for your brass when you pop your clogs? Surely it'd be cheaper to rent by the hour if that was all you were bothered about?
