webfact Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 "Sorry - we didn't use our brains" - Seafood restaurant staff in "Crotch Drama" apologize Picture: Daily News Staff of a seafood restaurant at the center of an "online drama" on Thai social media have apologized for inappropriate behavior. One of the staff members of "Sathanee Mee Hoi" (the place of shellfish) was shown in a video showing his crotch to a little girl in a show at a market. She tried to get away but the twerking man pursued her thinking it was all great fun. All the goading male staff on the sidelines were dressed up as women. Now they have all wai-ed and apologized for their actions. They said they did not use their brains and would do better in the future. The story received widespread attention on Thai social media where the actions of the restaurant staff were deemed as highly inappropriate.

Isn't it great that in Thailand a simple gesture with ones hands makes everything good that is wrong. Maybe their brains are actually in their finger tips and only start working once the fingers are placed together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well seems to me they did use their brains to the best abilities - the abilities of 10 year olds. In bachelor degree programs, typical age 18 to 20 yrs old, many of the students have the behaviors of 10 to if lucky 14 year olds. My Thai son regularly feigned sickness at or whatever at uni to get away from some of the infantile and ignorant activities of his year / class.

richard_smith237 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 And the parents did nothing.... Lets face it, whenever something silly which can be attributed to 'high spirits' and not uncommonly a significant amount of clumsy ignorance the situation is fairly easy to stop with a simple... Hand up and "No!"... especially when kids are involved... Agreed, this shouldn't have happened and the whole idea was stupid, but doesn't this sum up much of what happens here?... the description of the event makes it seem a whole lot worse.... The child could easily have been picked up and taken off by a parent to just stands there and videos instead.... so clearly the parents didn't think it was an issue...

seajae Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 and have the police charged them for what they did, have they been let go by the restaurant for giving it a bad name, highly doubtful as they simply dont give a sh*t, exposing themselves doesnt rate here unless you are a farang, the one that did it should be locked up and the others reprimanded, its disgusting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But judging by the reactions of the crowds they had shorts on (or something similar) under the skirts... So... I could be wrong, but I didn't think they were exposing themselves. Thats not to say I agree with this behavior, especially in front of kids, but I may not be as extreme as the 'create a drama out of a molehill' style in which it's been reported.

geriatrickid Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I watched the video. Events were nowhere near as bad as described. The ripped muscle guy wasn't that close to the kid and there was a meter or more of distance. His active proximity lasted a few seconds. This has been made into something it was not.

worgeordie Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 If only many would stop and think for a few seconds,before they say, do something that could affect others,example someone parks their car so close you cannot get in,overtaking on bends and other road stupidity,pulls out a gun,because they suspect their partner of infidelity, other acts just to save face,it goes on and on. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 For some reason, there is a percentage of both Thai men and women adults, who seem to have the emotional development of a 13 year old. Not sure what that is about. I have noticed that often the eldest in the family, tends to be far more mature, perhaps due to having responsibility as a kid. But, it is shocking how many just do not seem to be able to behave like adults, especially when put into a challenging, difficult, tragic, or spontaneous and stressful situation. I understand some of this, when it comes to the men, as they are coddled way too much as kids, and given a very unhealthy degree of entitlement, and that feeling of being "oh so special", and it is based on nothing but gender, which is inane. But, the women? Most are far more mature than the men, but certainly not all! That is why when asked, I always counsel really taking your time to get to know a woman here, before making any sort of long term commitment. If it is good, it is only going to get better. If there are problems, issues, and a lack of emotional development that you need to be aware of, they will reveal themselves over time. Of course these are generalizations, and there are some Thais that stand head and shoulders above the pack. Fortunately, I am married to one, who is highly developed emotionally. But, she is the eldest, and I am convinced that has alot to do with it. She was given alot of tasks and responsibilities growing up, and her parents were strict, and are truly outstanding people.

Having taught ‘at Uni’ in many countries (but not in Thailand) I can agree that this assessment applied in each of them. During a by now quite extensive professional life, I have also observed that in some ways, it is also true that many adults in all countries have such child-like behaviour wrt certain aspects of life, particularly personal, family and financial relationships. have fun y’all!

And a lot of that came from his Thai mother who studied in a western country for many years and picked a much better grasp of right and wrong / appropriate and not appropriate, she made numerous opportunities to share all of this with our son / discuss with him, encourage him to analyse, ask questions etc., etc. Plus he attended high school in Singapore for some years, which quickly made him more mature. He found a good Singaporean buddy and spent a lot of time with his buddy's family, the father was a clever engineer who talked a lot to his kids and my son always includes, gave them challenges, encouraged them to talk and debate etc., etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. Partly because they are treated a little children, in many cases even into their early teens, plus many parents never discuss right and wrong / appropriate and not appropriate, they stay with what they know - the mindset of little kids.
