Why Some Cambodian Women Are Attracted to Older Foreign Men

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Some points id like to add, to help support some posts, is that their is also the family hierarchy to put into the mix, how its seen as the kids responsibility to support the parents, in a country where theres no retirement etc, when parents get too old/sick to work its the kids job to help support the parents, having a husband who is responsible with financial security would appeal more attractive than a younger guy who likes to go out and drink with his friends...
If I´m not wrong it is more daughters responsibility to support the parents

That's because in a country with no real employment prospects for the majority of the male population- pussy is president.

When the ladies start screaming at each other "I'll cut your pussy out" They only mean that they will take away their means of support.



Good reminder in Jamie's post and the exact same motives behind the parents needing to accept the proposed in England back in the day.

Security b4 Love in countries that lack any social back-ups. Just like Guns b4 Butter in war time.

Correct. The boys get married then support their wife's parents.

Why Some Cambodian Women Are Attracted to Older Foreign Men

I know quite a few Khmer girls with barang partners and all of them absolutely adore their partners, and treat them like a king.
To answer the question posed earlier, I think Khmer girls are fantastic girlfriends, in general. And they always look gorgeous!
Western women could learn a lot from these women about keeping a man happy. :)

He looks like a villain from a James Bond 007 film. She better be careful. He might get jealous and dip her in molten gold.
