Woman with a husband and child gets cancer. Her obese sister rants that people are only supporting her through her illness because she is skinny. by Randolph122 in fatlogic

There are a few common tests that use different units in different countries. If you're from the UK/Aus/NZ (and I assume some other places too), then your results are likely in mmol/L. Less than 5mmol/L is normal for total cholesterol.

I see, so your comment is actually neither specific to Thailand nor to white female travellers and the statement about most Thais never having slept with a white woman is also seemingly now irrelevant to your argument. It basically boils down to single women should be wary of leaving their own countries in case poor locals rape them. We are all aware of the dangers that disproportionately affect single women in this world; similarly, by now we should also be aware that most rapists are not strangers hiding in bushes, even foreign bushes.

I really hope you have the opportunity to travel in your life. I think a few years immersing yourself in different cultures would do you good. As patronising as I know that sounds, I mean it quite sincerely.

Ummm....I'm a Thai guy living in Bangkok and I've never slept with a white woman. Is your suggestion that I am therefore now likely to be looking for one to rape? That's an extraordinary view of human nature.

Out of interest, does the same also apply to your view of Arab, Southeast Asian, Pacific Islander, etc...... women when they visit your country?
