Foreign Women

Thai women are special. If you don't believe this, please explain to me why men come to Thailand from all over the world to enjoy Thai women and possibly take them home with them. I suggest it's a combination of how Thai culture is reflected in their character ... and how well put together they are.

This is intended to be the sequel to a previous book I wrote years ago, “Thai Women -What a Foreign Man Should Know.” Time has passed and my perspectives have changed. Living in Thailand can do that. This book is based on my experiences. I provide no statistics. I do not pretend to be objective. My experiences have had some emotional impact on me. What you will read will be very subjective. My intention here is to both educate and entertain. It's hard to live in Bangkok and not have a few juicy stories. ...
