Dating in Bangkok: Expat Women Share Their Stories - Part 1 [Season 3, Episode 64]

It's a very unique episode of the Bangkok Podcast!


Greg and Ed do a first for the the show, with a panel
discussion with four guests! Why four? Well, everyone knows that
cliche about Bangkok being a heaven for expat men, but we didn't
know much about expat women. It stands to reason that one woman
can't speak for all women, so we upped
the game a bit.


After some introductions, we get into the meat of the show,
with a myriad of stories that show how complex, nuanced, and
(depending on the person) important the issue is to a life well
lived in the capital.


Among many other things, the ladies discuss the differences
between the attention they get back home and what they get in
Bangkok, what it's like to date Thai men (and women), the quality
of farang men in Thailand, and a host of other issues.


There are also some hilarious(ly awful) Tinder stories,
anecdotes about being approached on the street, issues that
single moms have to deal with, discussion about western women who
leave Thailand bitter and angry, and how Asian American women are
treated in Thailand. Suffice it to say more than one can of worms
are opened up in part one of a two-part mega interview.


As always, the podcast will continue to be
100% funded by listeners just like you who get
some special swag from us. And we'll keep our
Facebook, Twitter,
