That's just because you were a good-looking young hunk then and now you're a decrepit old man. Like me.

....If the girls seemed friendlier 30 years ago, it probably has as much to do with the fact that you were 30 then, as opposed to 60 now, as it does with changing attitudes towards foreigners.

Most likely Thaï :
"The man said he was drunk and had not intended to scorn the woman. He declared he would definitely give up alcohol. If he lost his job as a result, he would return to his home province."

Not true, as you age in Thailand you get respect, even as a farang.
By girls i assume mean bars girls'?? The ladies are happy to see ya cause they figure u have more cash than a youngster. Many of my friends that are single an still out there hooking up, tell me the ladies are very pleased to see them when they enter the bars.

Don’t get me wrong, I know plenty of older guys who do very well with the ladies in SEA - bargirls or otherwise, but there are others who seem to get a chip on their shoulders when they see younger guys who are still having fun in the bars the way they used to.

In reality she was screaming, kicking and punching in the air, and he was smiling while walking away.
He obviously did nothing to her because she's a woman, he did however punch her male friend a couple of times and after that her friend is out of the picture.

Good on her for standing up for herself but what a lame attempt at sensationalism, I give it 1 out of 5 stars.

That's pretty much what I was saying:
