So where would a Issan speaking person from Sa Kaeo fit into your poll? Geographically I guess it is lower North East (but not Kymer speaking person in sight!) but then again, often included in Eastern Region, but nowhere near the coastal provinces.

Even with 15 choices you couldn't cover all the possibilities.

Feel free to collect the data into just those 5 standard groups. But I did want to allow for some more diversity. :o

So up to you where you put 'Sa Kaew'. It's not like her head will be gullotined off if you pick the wrong group. :D If her area is Isarn speaking then I'd still pick 'upper North East', but I'm equally fine with Lower NE or even Central is that's the local lingo there.

You will always have some borderline provinces; Petchabun is another. Up to you where you put that. :D

I see that once again I'm the odd person out -- only one with an SO who's "Urban Chinese".

I mentioned these categories to her and she seemed a little put out that the rest were geographic and that only the urban Chinese were singled out as to ethnicity....

Not at all. With lower NE I hinted at Khmer origins, in North Hilltribe I hinted at several hilltribes which would be a separation from the other 'North' catergory only based on ethnicity. For the North I also suggested 'Muang' people, who would consider themselves of different heritage than Isarn, Central or South. Different language too.

Wherever possible I tried to keep pretty close to ethnic/linguistical lines rather than just geographic.

Urban Chinese is a valid category because it would likely be misinterpreted if some guys have a wife from Had Yai (Deep South / "Muslim") who is however of Chinese descent and not too different culturally from Chinese Thais in Nakhon Sawan or Khorat.

Two 'Mrs. Rights' bin and gone already. One from Chiangmai, one from Khon Kaen. Loved 'em both to bits. No longer looking, but would be delighted by the attentions of some delectable lady with a desire to dally with, and flatter, one S.O.F!!!! :D

Happy with my dreams. :o

My partner(s) are from "Up to you", usually. :o

Not sure where that is on the map though.

One fine lady I knew insisted she was from Laos. Petchabun to be exact. Looked and looked all over maps of Laos, couldn't find Petchabun anywhere.

(Obviously) I found out Petchabun was in Thailand, but her family was from Laos, and they still considered themselves Lao, not Thai.
