The video shows him holding her by the wrist as she struggles to get away from him and then he smacks her. This isn’t a good example for arguing “The Khmers are out to get us”

How prevalent do you think domestic abuse is in Cambodian marriages? My gut would be that it's not overly prevalent, but those that do it (probably substance abusers) mostly get away with it and the wife takes it without pursuing it with the authorities.

What? Everybody slaps each other around out on the countryside. I bet quite a few women out there, could kick my sorry ass too, if it really came down to it.

Well, Miguelito never sees domestic abuse while sipping appletinis at Bouchon, therefore it can’t be very prevalent in Cambodia.newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 10:17 amWhat?

I also asked, and did not state that I knew, because I am not in the position to see what happens in the day-to-day lives as some people might be, that live with in-laws, etc.

You once said: "I'd move to Toul Kouk, or even further out, to avoid all the foreign scum, and just hang with the friendly locals."newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 10:17 amWhat?

So which is it? Are they "friendly locals" in the countryside, or do they "slap each other around"?

I agree very bad call, in that area especially.
As a foreigner, you can't really slap anyone around, long term.
Just look at the French. what happened.
I guess living with a country girl here in the city for many years, gets me the best of both worlds.Miguelito wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 11:43 amYou once said: "I'd move to Toul Kouk, or even further out, to avoid all the foreign scum, and just hang with the friendly locals."newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 10:17 amWhat?

What does that mean? That you have a nice friendly country girl that you can smack around as local country people do?newnewnewbie wrote: ↑Mon May 06, 2019 11:49 amI guess living with a country girl here in the city for many years, gets me the best of both worlds.

Ha ha, no, that she can smack me and the kids around at will. At least I got her off the 'wrist slap' on the boy. But they still use it in school, using a ruler. Violence is prevalent in this society, but less so in the city, at least.
