Right. I think Pecahead should get the girl the phone and stop whining.kinglear#1 wrote:'Younger' girls (in your words) might be attracted to 'older' blokes for financial reasons. 'Older' blokes accept that.

Romantic Cambodia is dead and gone. It's with McKinley in the grave.
ha ha,got asked to buy a car after her boss got one she liked,said but you cant drive,oh ok you pay for me learn,just say no but be generous when you want to
I remember richard attenborough describing a species with a mating ritual that involved telephones.
They are found mainly in the lowlands of cambodia,along rivers generally but also found on the south western coastal flats.
I think the species was khmerus bargirlus,and I think there was also a sub species khmerus greygirlus.
Does this help?

So when you're sleeping with a girl that is younger, better looking, etc. what exactly is she getting out of it if not a new phone? In your mind, what are you bringing to the table -- just the hope of a possible serious relationship? I honestly cannot blame these girls for keeping their freshie boys on the side.
My partner is younger then me. Definitely better looking then me. Has worked in a bar so according to your stereotype must be some kind of untrustworthy whore. Yet has neither a freshie boy on the side nor a desire to leave.
I would say every relationship is different.

With all due respect, Cambodia has its own way of doing things, rightly or wrongly. I do not try to impose driving standards I am used to on Cambodia (though, I would dearly love to). How does anyone know that the girl Peca is talking about is Not trying to get into a SERIOUS relationship? I agree that the chances are that she is not (unless we are talking about serious rip offs).
But to tar any foreigner with the 'rip off' brush is misguided in my honest (and humble) opinion.
'Barang' are as much victims as oppressors, I believe. It's not much of a world, I agree, but blokes fall foul of oppressive women just as much as blokes may try to 'take advantage' of the poverty thing in Cambodia and other 'Developing Countries'.
'Supply and Demand' might not suit everyone, but it's there. It's a fact of life.
I partially agreed that barangs are as much victims as oppressors, but through my general observation they (usually Asians) are the ones who usually if not always making the first move with their $ power i.e. lust in this tourist city so unpleasant thing should be expected. In term of PP, I think most bar girls/hostesses have interacted with enough foreign visitors to have many games of their own. I dont really believe an attractive Khmer girl working in this sort of field would sincerely love a genuine white dude with a huge age gap unless maybe she has passed her prime physical appearance.
On a different note, IMHO as a native Khmer speaker, Khmers has a devious mindset that is incredibly hard to detect even for a trained eyes (I am not saying I am one). They can endure and pamper you for weeks to years until they can get their hand on a particular ultimate prize they have been eying on since day one -- I have yet to witness it in a Khmer-barang relationship since I dont have out with expats. And let's be honest, most divorced old folks dont come here for a western retirement sort of style.
That's the most sensible thing i've heard you say.
I agree. The trick is to keep the big prize like a carrot, on a stick.
You might end up hacked to pieces in a lake because they got frustrated though.

Is this a bar girl asking for the phone?
That's the fundamental question. No need to go to 4 pages to get an answer.

Great thread, and great responses! Seems like a lot of argument, considering it sounds like we all agree with each other at the same time...
To clarify, she is a bar girl, right?

You disgusting pervs.
You should all go out with older, uglier women, then Giblet would be happy.
Giblet if you had any experience with Khmer women you would never recommend buying one a phone when you had barely just met her.
Although I guarantee if you do buy her the phone it'll be the last time you fall for that old one, it's the new "sick buffalo" story.

Let me redirect the conversation just a bit. Is it common in Cambodian for women to ask male suitors (including local males) to buy them things?
In Western culture, asking people to buy you gifts is generally considered impolite. But I've had a number of Cambodian women say something to me along the lines of "My birthday is next week will you buy me a gift?" Or "My birthday was last week, where's my gift?" These were non-hooker type bargirls that I was friends with but not otherwise involved with. Were they asking me for gifts because (a) I'm white, (b) they're crude, or (c) it's perfectly normal for Cambodian women to ask dudes to buy them things?
