About the ladies of Chiang MaiThe ladies of Chiang Mai are super mysterious sexy
exotic creatures and they really make this city tick! With few
exceptions they're charming, friendly, beautiful and hard-working. They
will work at any job and I'm convinced that without them, the city
would grind to a halt. Thailand has a You've probably heard some lurid stories about Thai girls and there's no doubt some of them are true. However, these cause a lot of misconceptions. As in most countries, the vast majority of women are educated and well brought up, enjoy a laugh and a joke, love to banter and chat and are usually curious about farangs (Westerners).

Just a word about the famous 'Lady Boys' of Thailand. Many lady boys are very beautiful and it's sometimes hard to tell the difference. Be attentive and try not to make any silly mistakes. Many western men fall for Thai women, marry and live happily ever after and if you're looking for romance, well, Thai ladies seem to favour westerners. So, if you're looking for female company, be cool and respectful and have a good time.Warning - check this out!Thai culture dictates that if you marry a Thai girl, a dowry should be paid to her parents. The size of the dowry If you want to take
a bar girl out, you'll probably have to pay a 'bar fine' to compensate

gives 'face' to the girl's family. Depending on the circumstances of
the parents, this dowry may be returned later, but check this out
before tying the knot. Younger Thais are also expected to
look after their elderly parents, so don't be surprised to find that
you've married the whole family and are sometimes expected to support
them.
