oh! all the examples I used were undergraduate courses - I didn't even think of coming all the way over here to study english! I met some Korean kids doing that in Cairns in November, they work in those 30 minute massage places.
Yeah maybe only all the posh kids went all the way to UK we aren't so far away here, and cost of living is lower here too I imagine.
My university specialised in medicine and business, so yes, it relied on the full fee paying students from asia - they sent folks up your way to round them up, entice them with god knows what HUGE asian student population, and if you wanted to make money, build student housing now of course since the Indian student bashing hoopla, we're not so high on the destination list any more, in fact India issued a travel warning recommending people NOT study in Australia.

he had this one staff member he wanted to fire so badly but she was on contract until her retirement, so he would deliberately change her grades now and then (he did it for me once too, saying "she failed you on this??? what a load of rubbish!!!!" and gave me a pass )

Oh, of course being a white guy with a Thai wife here in Bangkok if I walk around a touristy bar area I imagine it might be assumed I'm a dude paying for a prostitute/short time kinda 'girlfriend'. I guess in all kinds of places ppl probably make assumptions about 'farang' with Thai girls, but it's not something that really affects us if we don't pay attention to it and let it.
Some Thais will assume if you're white you must be rich. Maybe sometimes it's best I'm NOT somewhere with my wife as ppl might think I'm not savvy and try to rip us off. Other times if I am there we'll get treated better as the baht signs in their eyes light up. What else? I'm sure there are other ways we're treated differently because of our interracial relationship, but it's more race issues in general as individuals and not to do with our relationship as such. I've never had Thai men say anything negative to me to suggest resentment about foreigners being with Thai women. To be honest I stopped thinking about these things a while ago so I might be blind to some stuff. We just get on with it and we've no real issues that affect us in any significant way. I don't wake up thinking 'another day waking up next to my Asian wife' and I forget she's even Asian or Thai, anything different, or even a different person to me. I could explain that last bit but it'll only come out muddled. MY COUSIN WORKS IN A PHARMACY AND SHE SAID THEY ENEMA'D PRANCE INTO OBLIVION WITH FENTONILS!! | |

anyone hanging out in the city in the early hours when the nightclubs on king street close is at risk! You just have to look at someone wrong, UGH.

for that reason sensible folks stay away from there, but there is a hotel/student accommodation a few doors away. So, student finishes shift at hotel or convenience store and walks past there, BAM. | |

Oh, that's awful, especially as they're not local and may only have been here a really short time. What a terrifying experience.
It's things like this that make me see Bangkok as a relatively safe place for such a huge and populous city. Forgetting the shady, more obscure areas most foreigners would never find themselves at night, all the lively night-life type places where people go out seem pretty safe. I've hardly ever seen any trouble. Back in my hometown in Cheltenham, a place with just 100,000 people, I wouldn't feel safe going clubbing on the main high street because of the violence that breaks out when the people spill out of the clubs. You see on the news about violent protests here though, and movies like 'Bangkok Dangerous' portray the place as this edgy, dark, crime-ridden megatropolis, but I just don't see it like that. It's got a rep for criminality, corruption, mafia, dodgy police, but most people are too non-confrontational to start trouble, I think. More happy drunks than all the aggressive yobs there seem to be in England (at least, back when I was living there). I don't know, it feels safe given it's a huge capital city.

I never had a problem with black men dating out of their race or whatever have you, nor does my sister. I could care less about whom dates whom, It just kinda get my panties in a twist when certain black guys would say " I don't date black women because they are too..." I have a younger cousin who has that mentality {his mother is half puerto rican} and the only girls he calls beautiful on his FB page are all ricans too and I don't have a problem with that but all I can do is shake my head at the fact he thinks such a way. I think some of them try to use that as a good 'excuse' to date non-black women. Hey fellas, date whomever you want but date them because that's who you're attracted to not because the women in your race/ethnicity are too yadda yadda and they don't know how to blah blah blah and vice versa. The funny thing is some men that never even dated black women or a woman of another race or ethnicity makes these generalizations. As for some black women giving other women funny looks or trying to punk them because they don't agree on who someone else is dating is {I mean NOT only black women because this happens with all kinds of people and has been happening for the longest}....I don't even have words. surviving on the thought of loving you, it's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years... | |

Everybody in Trinidad assumes I am rich because I am white . And some pretty much tell me I should marry my bf and take him to my country and pay his bills . I was told that it is an honour to have somebody white as a friend. I had dinner at the house of an Indian woman who is a working collegue of an Indian friend of ours and my friend told me that everybody in the company was totally impressed that somebody white was invited at that woman's house and that that woman was so proud and kept talking about it for days and was so happy I liked it. On the otehr hand the same friend told me that she also got negative comments about being friends with somebody white. So some people adore me because of the coulour of my skin while others hate me, but everybody treats me different there just because I happen to be white.

Guuurl I know that's right! It makes me sick really. I've met some black men who were into me because I was lighter skinned and crap. Ugh...made me sick. Generalizations that make no sense.

I'm white. My first wife was black. We used to get loooks from older people when we would go grocery shopping. And me, being the little prick that I am, always played it up. Whenever I noticed people staring at us I'd hold her hand or put my arm around her and smile at them. People better get used to it like it or not. This is the way it was meant to be, together, all people, not seperated based on skin color or nationality. Love knows no boundries....NONE! Christopher damn! | |
