Why do 20-something local girls wear maxipads on their foreheads while walking around in pajamas?

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia.

Do they sell these pajamas (I’m particular to Sponge Bob) in 5XL at the Ruski market? I’m not female, so prolly no need for wearing a MaxiPad on my forehead.

Why do 50-something foreign guys dream about maxi-pads while perusing women who are obviously very sick and hot and were feeling too poorly to get dressed up? We will probably never know. :?

They are trying to be funny. They dont think about it being offensive to some people.

It is not just those that are 20-something. It can be any age.

It is normal and acceptable to go out in pyjamas. They dont need to be sick. Almost all girls go out in pyjamas at some time.

The girl in the picture would most likely have a headache or fever.

I tried out one of those patches with a sick friend as a guinea pig and it seemed to work ok. He is still alive. So don't judge before you try. I admit I was a bit sceptical. 8-)

Pajamas are very practical in the heat, and inexpensive too.

They originate in Asia I think.

The prints are much cheerier than Pathet Lao / Khmer Rouge black as well.

I would rather say that the stupidity of some Asian is remarkably high...
How can people be stupid enough to walk in dirty streets with pajamas that they will wear in bed ? Same idiots as Thai.

Most Asians are considerably cleaner than many foreigners.

And you should maybe get out of Dodge.
