I still haven't stopped chuckling. Someone, maybe I, need to compile a version of They Call Me Naughty Lola based on the personal classified in the Bangkok publications.
Observations from the BK Magazine Personals:

- Height and Weight revelations seem to be the norm.
But the American/Western in me can't help feeling like the phrasing makes it seem like the people see this as some sort of a cattle market:
Skin Doctor, 29 (W. 56, H. 169) Chinese-Thai, conservative. She has long hair with great skin (of course), cute looking with sweet soft spoken voice.Perhaps she could be a match for:
... He's looking for an educated, light skinned, cute, feminine, Thai Chinese looking woman with a good heart.Maybe I need to reconsider my career. Matchmaking can't be that hard...
Here's one I find ironic:
... She's looking for someone who's successful in his career, smart, open-minded, who has a sense of humor. Someone who doesn't have his profile on Hi5 or Facebook and don't like to chat on the Instant Messenger...Hi5? Now I'm curious...
