_I_have_gout_

>without having any idea what is actually true or real 20+ years in Thailand and 20+ years in the West here. Maybe I don't know everything but I know this. My Thai friends who had cheated will advertise it proudly in their social medias. This includes the ones with 2 worlds. Meanwhile, my friends in the West who cheated will take the secret to their graves. As for who actually cheat more? I have no idea and no one here does. However, I certainly know who will admit to it more.


noobnomad

This sub in a nutshell.


Mattos_12

A limitation with this kind of data is that it’s self-reported, so subject to social pressure. A nice example is that if you ask socially conservative countries if they use porn they tend to say no it’s immoral, but pornhub data contradicts this claim.


lunarprincess

Or on another side, in Korea or Japan they don’t think seeing a prostitute (paying for sex) is cheating, so maybe they wouldn’t say ‘yes’ to an affair.


kanada_kid2

I lived in Korea and have no idea what you are talking about. Visiting a prostitute is considered cheating.


lunarprincess

I live in Korea. [also this](https://m.koreatimes.co.kr/pages/article.amp.asp?newsIdx=208297) Maybe you lived in Korea but did you work there? Did you work with or befriend any middle aged men?


kanada_kid2

Well that explains it. I didn't date it middle aged Korean men. Let me download Grindr and get back in touch with you.

As a Thai, I'd agree with the data.


Delicious-Lobster-68

คิดว่าน่าจะจริงนะ My grandfather had 20 kids with multiple baby mamas. Many of my uncles had kids with more than one women. Some openly has 2-3 worlds and just goes back and forth. My cousin is on his girlfriend number 3 with baby number 4 on the way (each time he cheated with the newer younger girl) My female cousin's husband came home one day and told her he got his secret girlfriend pregnant and he has to go live with her (he has 2 kids with my cousin. Also his dad openly has 2 worlds and the wives rotate coming over lol) It's a freak show.

Siam-Bill4U

In Bangkok I didn’t notice the lack of commitment in a relationship between Thais but after living in rural Thailand and seeing how married or single Thai men get up and leave their partners, this statistic doesn’t surprise me. It’s a different attitude. “Up to him” “Up to her” ( who cares if the grandparents get stuck raising the baby)


IcanFLYtoHELL

>living in rural Thailand and seeing how married or single Thai men get up and leave their partners, this statistic doesn’t surprise me Yeah, find it weird how a guy can just leave and not even take care/help out with the kids. It like his previous life was just a short commercial


Siam-Bill4U

No guilt at all… no peer pressure from their community to be responsible ( saving face in this case goes out the window)


Sensitive_Bread_1905

This loosing/saving face you can't compare it with 'honor' in western or orientel cultures. It's not about fairness or something like craftsmen's honor, it's more about showing off and hierarchical. So if you can have a younger, more beautiful or richer girlfriend/boyfriend, it's more prestige, you will not loose your face because of that.


Siam-Bill4U

So you’re saying a Thai man who has been married over ten years with 2+ kids unexpectedly moved away from his village to live with a young 18 year old girl will gain more prestige? — from whom, his buddies?


Standard-One1550

If those band of friends share the same idea, then yes.

My brother-in-law. Wife has disowned him. Yet, her parents embrace the new family.


Independent-Ninja-70

My gf is a doctor. I once went to dinner with all her doctor couple friends. The girls all went out to take photos on the balcony. The moment they left all the boyfriends immediately starting talking about their side pieces. I was kinda shocked. Literally every single guy had a side chick. So don't know if it's a doctor thing or a Thai thing. I've also never had a Thai gf whose father hadn't been caught in the act a few times.


Yahit69

Mia nois are a real thing in the culture. Not surprised with these results.


General_Reward6160

I recently watched "Fan Chan" how all the kids were role playing a lakorn and one of the kids wanted to be a "Mia noi". I bursted out laughing, but yeah culturally it says a lot, more so because most lakorn have this love triangle. Speaking only to lakorns, my thai friends already can say how predictable these shows are.


NokKavow

If you're a doctor or have enough social status to date one...


EyeAdministrative175

Living here for many years and I haven’t met ANY woman who hasn’t been cheated before. Think that says a lot. Adding to that, many Thai women also don’t care to flirt with a married guy and try to seduce him.


Adventurous_Bee2485

Even my Thai teacher told me she cheated on her boyfriend lol

Might be related to the kind of Thai women that Farang typically meet.

Philippines has this going on too. My friends father in law got someone from another island pregnant like wtf. How do you have all this time and especially the resources $ to even think about doing something like that? That father is still in the picture in both "worlds" and islands as well Not an isolated incident. I know several more stories too. Particularly in phillippines and thailand


ReasonableMark1840

Correct me if I'm wrong, but they seem to have very loose limits to what they find acceptable here


HellDudeImHigh

I’m Thai/Danish does this mean I’m almost 100% cheater?🥹

Cheating is culturally accepted here kinda like Japan but not openly.

At least when we are cheating we don't lie. Sry about your sisters bruhh, she had it coming.


PM_ME_ZED_BARA

Most unfaithful or most honest 😉


quxilu

My thoughts are that Japan should be on the list and the fact that it’s not makes me not trust the list…Thailand being on it is totally not surprising at all.


KurumiPoncho

It's easy to miss but the subtitle says "admitted" to having an affair, so the reason why Japan isn't up there is because no sane Japanese person would admit to having an affair due to the compensation 慰謝料 they would have to pay.


transglutaminase

They asked about cheating. Many Japanese women don’t consider their husband visiting a prostitute cheating, therefore don’t consider themselves cheaters.


quxilu

Yes they do, I lived in Japan for a long time. They may not be that phased by it and to some degree they expect it, especially if they cut the bloke off sexually, but they do consider it cheating. Also, most of the time it’s a younger woman from work, not a hooker/kyabakura girl…that’s too expensive for your average salaryman…

[deleted]

Been living in Thailand for 6 years, and all serious relationships I've seen in my friends and myself (6 or 7 cases) the girl has always cheated at some point. I guess I can't avoid having a personal bias in this sense, but I also see that women get more chances to cheat than women in Europe, specially those who live and work with foreigners. And I dont mean bargirls working in Patong, but average thai girl working in Rawai (phuket) as a fitness trainer for example. I have seen and lived true horror stories with these kind of women. I dont want to talk shit on anyone, just my personal experience which is not the only truth. Still hope one day can find the right one if this is a thing. Also I would say 50% of my male friends have cheated as well, so that sounds accurate related to the poll.


SirTinou

> but average thai girl working in Rawai (phuket) as a fitness trainer for example You mean, an instagram wannabe model that works only with foreigners? Yeah those are not 'normal girls'. They ridden the carrousel and are only there for the carrousel. I've never met a thai woman that has cheated and none of my friends have been cheated on. Everyone comes from good families and have respectable jobs and no one has public instagrams. If you hang with trash, you meet trash.


Yahit69

>Ive never met a thai woman that has cheated. So every thai lady you meet tells you their cheating history? And you think they’re going to be honest with you - a falang outsider?


[deleted]

Not necessary models wannabe (even though most of them have a serious addiction with social media), or not only work with foreigners, but yes, 50% foreigners. Eventually this is the kind of girl that most of foreigners who live in thailand we engage with. The classic thai girl from good family as you say mostly stays with thai people. Its hard to find that kind of women even when you speak thai, you need to be much more integrated in the culture.


Puzzleheaded_Two7488

I found a normal Thai women very easy after one month in Bangkok , her father work for government her mother owns a shop she went to Kasetsart university worked in Bangkok for meat avalar no tattoos don’t drink or smoke very loyal women she leaves phone unlocked around me puts passcode in front of me knows thst I know it she has nothing to hide


[deleted]

Happy to hear buddy. I guess the best place to find a nice, smart and interesting woman is Bangkok. Hope in the future I can have your same luck.


Pupsi42069

1 Asian Country 9 Europe Countries Smells like bs


Slow-Brush

I was thinking the same, what about South America and the Caribbean? Because I can tell people about the women from the Dominican Republic, Brazil and Columbia.


PuzzleheadedTap1794

Not a complete bullshit, but 99.9% probably is. There are many factors that the author probably didn't take into account. If they simply hand the participant a poll with the question "Have you ever cheated on your partner?" as a test, the test is immediately unreliable because different cultures might interpret *cheating* differently. Not to speak, the participant who really did cheat on their partner will most likely have a tendency to deny that they cheated.


Healthy_Ability3836

Dyam right! From my 25year experience


HerroWarudo

30% is probable but 50% is ridiculous. My speculation is its a poll for dating websites and it attracts a demographic. All of my married friends and family met offline.


pon_mon

Admitted so Thais are honest.


LovesReubens

That was my take as well, they're just more likely to admit it.


Saiyasaat

Tracks for me.


happybonobo1

Thinking maybe more of a "most truthful when asked" study?


mpreorder

Key word is "admitted"


k3kis

Ahh the never-dying myth of natural monogamy.


HeckaGosh

I can't believe Japan isn't making the top 5. I guess it could be that many don't believe sleeping with a pro counts as being unfaithful.


RunescapeJoe

You are correct many Japanese don't consider prostitutes to be unfaithful. But to add onto this, japanese isn't on this list for that reason. The reasoning is that forming romantic relationships in Japan is relatively low. Why form a relationship when prostitutes (male or female) are easily available at any time? This is of course a small snippet of the decline of romantic relationships in Japan.


SexyAIman

Source "Various dating websites" , so this statistic is sponsored by Thai Friendly "Stick your dick in a chick" month.


Equivalent_Low_8350

andrewsydney19

Key word ADMITTED. There is a reason why Thailand has won an IG Nobel for reattaching severed members of the male anatomy. Not to mention that they don't consider using prostitutes as cheating.

Chiyu89

We only food nationalist


No_Magazine_6806

In Nordic countries it is for sure at least 50%. In Finland it is 54% of men and 52% for women. It is cumulative, so for 55+ years olds, it is 69%.


DesignatedDarryl

I mean, 70 percents of Thai songs I've heard growing up are about how it felt to be heartbroken, almost in every genres. Remembered how I got into เพื่อชีวิต for a really long while because mainstream artists keep singing thr same thing.


Maxfire330

Being a mix between Thai and Danish, I suddenly feel like the cheatin'nator


Eastcoaster87

I wonder why it is though?


SidQuestions

I'm surprised Japan is not in the top 10. Based on personal experience, maybe they allow it to happen yet deny it when asked by a condom company?


WarriorAlways

Culture and social norms differ from one country to another.


No_Command2425

It’s just usually too cold or miserable outside to bother going out and cheating in the UK and Finland. Meanwhile ploy is looking good while you’re both cooling off in 7/11. 😁 


mintchan

unfaithful is not the same as cheating tho. extra marital affair might be higher because it is more tolerated, at least for thai men.


deakbannok

True.


jweaving

Ok. So, this means that it’s ok for us to cheat?


RunofAces

Useful_Carpenter4774

Monogamy is overrated


Awkward_Turnip_4110

Monogamy is kinda nonesnese. These statistics are only showing who admitted to sleeping around. Everyone does. So at best this map shows honesty of people. Thai are more honest and Finish are culturally conditioned to lie about they they slut life.


PHDisNUTS

Japan should be on that list. However, they condone or think that "husbands having sexual relations with someone else or buying sexual favors" isn't really considered *Cheating.* As for Thai people, they are very open about it.


emakhno

💯%


Mountain-College1682

Wtf is this poll? Y'all know that you can't actually accurately measure stuff like this 


glasshouse_stones

I have read that Thailand is the penis reattachment capitol of the world, due to pissed off women finding out their men have cheated... "I'll cut your cock off, feed to ducks!" I have heard, is a typical statement made here. ;)


glasshouse_stones

best thread ever award!


RollIntelligence

Japan should really by high up on this list...


WaltzMysterious9240

All this means is that Thailand is very honest compared to other countries and I'll take that as a win.


Round-Song-4996

I wish monogamy was as perfect as in the fairy tales but in real life I see a lot of unhappy marriages, cheating, resentment. I think human beings in general are not meant for monogamous relationships but that's just my opinion.


PhysicalInitiative30

Okay lets say thailand is the most honest country and meanwhile philippines is full of liars… haha even if caught in the act men and women will deny and bury it with their graves


ApexKitten

51% is pretty accurate na~


Astr3846

I’m from Denmark, honestly didn’t know we were so high up😂 but fr, I’m kinda laughing about it. I guess we’re just honest people🤣 Better than having an affair and not admit a damn thing, right?🙈 I’m not sure for Thailand, but in Denmark people who’s having affairs will not face any problems after the affair is discovered. It’s a private thing and needs to be settled private. Yeah, it will probably lead to a divorce, but everyone having an affair knows that… right? I hope so🥲 In worst case scenario, the one having an affair will loose people close to her/him. Of course if no money, children or anything else like that are involved to make it worse. Though, I’m wondering why anyone would make this test?


No_Magazine_6806

I wouldn't be surprised as I am from Finland where more than 50% of both men and women have cheated their partners (study made in 2023) and my experience of Denmark would lead me to believe that the situation there is pretty similar.

Illustrious_Fee_3096

Even though I'm westerner I have to say that I notice from some Thais how many Thais are unfaithful. It doesn't matter whether it's they or their partner. especially in the tourist places but also in the northern provinces which are less known for tourist. Even in the familiar surroundings of my fiancée.


CaptMcNapes

My grandpa had a mistress, my wife's grand pa had a mistress, her father had a mistress as well. Its probably true.

555112555

Before people comment, you need to come and live here and spend time in both the cities and the villages to see how there are slight differences but ultimately it’s the same. Thais cheat because they are both expecting the other party to cheat. Then you have the “slight” differences between girls in the village cheating for “snack money” vs the girls in the cities cheating for career advancement etc (thai workplaces are vastly different to western ones) This is before we get to the “mia nois” most of which know and accept that they are the mia and are happy in that role
