The issues Western men have with Thai women are often written about on this site which has become a repository for real-life stories about Thai women and Western men relationships.
The average Stickman reader is well aware of the often talked about issues, or downsides, of getting involved with a Thai woman. There's the sin sot (the dowry or bride price), the fact that a Western hubby will seldom rate higher than about number four in the hierarchy (below her parents, children and other siblings) and don't even get us started in the propensity of not an insignificant percentage of local women to refrain from battening down the hatches tightly. Oh no, they remain remain open and if a suitor is strong enough to enter her palace, she may well consider abandoning her current situation – irrespective of how far advanced the relationship is – and upgrade. We could talk about the reckless abandonment with which revenge is sought and the concept of mutilating a philandering partner's genitals, the Pandora's box that Miss Udon opened last year...but then I think we have done that one to death already.
