Western women hear about it all the time, often coming from male friends. Thai women are charming and a pleasure to be with, and American women just don’t seem to get it. Maybe American women “get it” a little bit, but they are not going to compromise their perceived self-esteem created by their powerful individuality and not letting men “take advantage of them”. Modern Western women have been taught this by their mothers and have had it re-enforced from high school through grad school.
When an American guy comes to Thailand, they often fall for the full effect of these charming Thai ladies, and the women back home shrug it off with remarks like he was probably a “perv” anyway. They scorn how American guys fall for these skinny little Asian girls that are probably too young for them. I have heard American women visiting Thailand seeing older American guys with young Thai girls (often they just look young) call these expats “creepy old guys”. Well, I am here to say it is a little deeper than that.
