i have been back in south africa for a while now, but still have contact with the thai community; still get the opportunity to converse in thai and still get to see and hear things that make me wonder wtf goes through their heads.
a while back, i overheard the thai wives of two of my friends, (one a thai male of around 48 years old, and the other, a farang of around 63 years old)
it went something like this:
tw1: "does your husband still demand sex at his age?" (to wife of 62year old farang)
tw2: "yes, i would have thought he would have had enough of it by now"
tw1: i have tried to explain to my (thai) husband that after we stop menstruating, we no longer have to perform, but he still wants it every morning" (this thai woman is in her early forties, and i doubt she has hit the menopause yet, so i guess she is just taking a chance)
tw2: :"i still menstruate, but i have been trying to wean him off it- surely at his age it is not normal to be so horny?"
tw1:"i heard that a farang male can still keep it up until after the age of 80!
what is WRONG with these people?"
tw2:" i don't think i will be able to keep going that long. what about my husband- he is thai- does it mean i will still have to give him sex for another 35 years?"
i got distracted and never heard the end of the conversation, but what i heard scared the hell out of me.
i have an addiction to thai women, and have always thought that i would probably marry another on at some stage.
if this is their attitude to sex when they get older, though, i may have second thoughts......
is this possibly the reason that (so i have heard), thai males would not normally consider marrying a woman of over 35 years old?
what the hell is wrong with women?- i mean, so menopause decreases the sex-drive and dries them up, somewhat, but:
after all a farang man normally does for his wife, can she not spare 20 minutes or so of her time per day, just to keep him happy?
the "i'm not in the mood tonight" excuse, as far as i am concerned, is grounds for divorce!!
i know many menopausal farang women who still enjoy a normal, active sex life ( with the help of some ky jelly or such), and i hope what i overheard is not the norm for thai women.
do they really think that sex is just a duty- something they must perform for their husbands?
i can understand these girls boring of an inept husband/boyfriend after a few years, but it was their choice to stay with the guy, and most men spend much longer than 20 minutes per day, working to keep the wife happy. can she not do the same for the poor bastard?
i met many thai women who really enjoyed good sex, and i hope that my perception is wrong, or i will have to start looking for stuff that hasn't been born yet!
