I am an atheist. I am not into marriage and long term commitment. I am allergic to kids and hate the responsibility. I can't stand scammers, gold diggers and whores. I loathe noise, pollution, stinky environments, beggers on the streets and bad service. And above all I detest bad food. What the hell am I doing here in the philippines?

Ok well if you dont like where you're at then you can leave...DUH!

You're misreading his tone, which is ironic. He's been an astute poster here for some time.

I've been posing the same question to myself for almost three weeks: Thailand is everything I hate, so what am I doing here? But in my case, the answer is simple enough -- I came here without any expectations, only to set foot in Asia for the first time, and get a cheap suit from a great tailor. And I get to leave in three days.

Though never having been there, I get your aversion to the Philippines. The real question is: Why didn't Valencia, Spain work?

Try going to Hong Kong or Singapore next time. You get what you pay for.

why on earth did you go there in the first place? Pack up and go someplace that fits you and the future.

The only reason guys go to shiteholes like the Philippines or Pattaya is for easy sex. What is all the BS here?

It is? Tamdrin and I are the only ones here who have come to Pattaya recently, and he split after two days. I'm old, and don't want it that badly anymore. I wouldn't pay for it if it was the hottest woman on the planet. You'd have to pay me three figures or so to have sex with the women here, and supply triple coverage condoms. You'll get there soon, and understand.

Then why did you go there? You could have gotten fresh air in Arizona.

One can still exercise one's Patriarchal gaze.

But, Mr. Jackson might want to consider having his testosterone levels checked.

I was in eastern Europe, what I had planned to do in Warsaw fell through, I had three weeks to fill in, I knew this would be my only chance to ever be in Asia since I would never take a 15-hour flight across the Pacific. I wanted to get a suit, and I wanted to get a variety of massages -- yeah, maybe some with happy endings. The latter project ended when I got here and realized I couldn't go in the streets without holding my nose.

Your cynicism is getting a little over the line here, friend. And like I said, if you've still got enough of a sex drive at your age to contemplate getting it on with women like these, enjoy it while you can, because you won't have it much longer.

No point to it. Either weight lifting, cold showers, wine instead of beer, etc., etc. is going to get the job done, or it ain't happening. Because I'm not taking any hormone shots.

You sound strictly first world to me...the real question might be...what in the hell are you doing anywhere?

I was just curious that everyone seemed startled that they woke up in the morning and somehow ended up in the Philippines or Pattaya and didn't know how they got there.

Manila? We are landing in Manila in 30 minutes? The hell you say! I bought a ticket to Minneapolis!

The extent of your expat knowledge may be greater than mine. I've been reading this forum for five years, including multiple threads on the Philippines, and formed the impression that most expats went there to find wives. I'm sure I don't need to list all the people here who have contributed to that impression. So when you say that nobody would go there except for whore mongering, that's really the first time I've heard that. I knew it was there in the Philippines, but only you have said that it's the whole program. Maybe it's time to check the old cynicism levels to see if we're not overboiling with it.

As for Pattaya, all I knew about it when I scheduled the trip was that it was sixty miles south of Bangkok, on the sea, and had been an R&R destination from Vietnam. Before leaving I started to get an idea from reading up that it was a monger destination. Not until I got here did I realize that it is hell on earth.

Apparently you already knew all this stuff. Please feel free to post often about such venues when you have special insight. It would be very helpful.
