Thread: Losing Face

What is all this talk about Thai's losing face ?

Losing face - to be publicly embarrassed.

Or even privately in some cases.

Central to a Thai persons existence...

A cultural deficiency.

Best you dont ask

Losing face is an animal thing, a monkey thing to be exact

it's based on pride and position, in a class structure system, like the monkeys and many animals have

evolved monkeys, that is the western white man, have learn to repress it like many of their animal instincts, yet it remains, so losing face is not reserved to Asians only.

Thai are not on the same level of evolution as the western man, so you have to accept their "animal" instincts, nothing wrong with that.

You seem well versed in this theory,wouldn't be a coincidence would it?

A total loss of face can be disastrous to some.

Everybody has "face"...it's just the degree

Ya you could bleed easy,in the old country. In Vancouver it is becomming common place, people look for a fight as part of a nights excitement. 2 stabbing deaths in the last 2 weeks.

I dunno man...These are not typically redneck fights for excitement , they are real fights. People are not afraid to kill.

The best thing I ever did was get the hell out of the lower mainland. Downtown Vancouver is decent but Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford ect are hell holes. Its pathetic.

Alberta is allot better.

Thats right.

Shootings and fights are a nightly occurrence in Vancouver BC. Guys are usually trying to impress women, have we ever evolved...

That's why some folks believe Thais are two faced--they can lose one and still function with the other.

I quite often get off my face...

Not the same thing I guess.

I know some folks who have lost their minds...

Not the same either.

I like pussy sitting on my Face...

Its a crap thing and makes it difficult sometimes to find and make other Thai / Farang friends or couples because they dont like what they first see and arent prepared to talk to them, yet i can talk with the husband easy enough. The problem is that they dont trust each other, even their friends.

I agree with that. Hence why they won't form 'co-operatives'.

There was this lady that lost face due to attack of a monkey some month ago...

...they just made the first full face transplant few weeks ago to some guy...

Yeh how bizzare was that.

..it's childish shite to be honest..the nation would be in better nick without the notion..

NO, YOU CAN'T VIOLENTLY DEMONSTRATE ON THE STREETS OF BANGKOK AND SET THE BASTARD PLACE ON FIRE...

Oh, ok, sorry about that..we'll just wait patiently and speak with our votes in the next election.

THAT'S BETTER!


See ..problem solved.

Go and smack a Thai on the head whilst screaming "Kwai !!!"

All will become clear
