Most Thai
are very forgiving about social mistakes, but trying to honor Thai standard
shows the Thai that the traveler has respect for their values. Here are
some important taboos whose observance is prudent, if one does not want
to be thought of as "bad mannered". These are a few things that tourists
should bear in mind.
-
1. Temper
. However frustrating the situation, never lose your temper. The person
who loses his temper loses face. Be Thai and just kep calm and smile.!!
-
2. Sensitivity.
The Thai are extremely self-conscious, and hate to be teased, especially
in front of their friends.
-
3. Criticism
. Never criticise a Thai or anything Thai. The Thai are a proud people,
and proud of their country. Criticising the King or a member of his family
could result in you being hospitalized.
-
4. Patience
. The Thai are extremely patient, and will wait hours for a bus or
train without complaint. They just don't understand Westerners preoccupation
with the time. Don't expect Thais to be punctual - they rarely are. It
is practically impossible to get into an argument with a Thai. They just
smile back and wait for the storm to pass.
-
5. Modesty
. Most Thais are extremely modest about nudity, and when undressing
will wrap a towel around them to slip off their trousers. The towel will
not be removed until the firmly tucked up under the sheets. Some more experienced
Thais have learnt that many Farang walk around a hotel room stark
naked, but this can does embarrass many Thais. Most Thais are part horrified
and part fascinated by Farang men on the beach disporting themselves
in thong style swimwear, and women going topless.
-
6. English
. Many Thais can read or write English better than they can speak it.
If you don't understand each other, write it down.
-
7. Touching.
Never, never, touch the top of someone's head , even someone you are sleeping
with. The head is the most sacrosanct part of the body. Likewise, the Thai
will be astounded if you touch their feet, as feet are considered dirty
and lowly. Once the relationship is established, you can ask permission
to do these things. Never touch any part of woman in public, not even holding
her hand. You will see modern young straight Thai lovers holding hands,
but they are imitating Western styles. It is perfectly OK. for two men
to hold hands, but no assumptions should be made as to their sexuality.
-
8. Fingers
and Feet . Never point at anybody, but you can point at things. The
feet, being dirty (even if yours are not) should never be used to point
at anything, to stop a rolling coin, to move something aside, or be placed
on furniture, even on the back of the seat in front of you in the bus or
train. Feet should be kept firmly pointing at the ground, even when sitting.
Don't step pver any one - ask them to move, even if they are sleeping on
the pavement..!
-
9. Cleanliness
& Attire. Tha Thai, however poor, are almost always smartly turned
out and well scrubbed. Westerners strolling into public places wearing
beach clothes, being unshaven or otherwise unkempt, cause either amusement
or consternation. If vsiting a temple or Royal Palace, shorts and sleeveless
shirts or blouses are taboo.
-
10. Demeanour.
Try to avoid being too high, either in height or manner. When walking past
a group of people sitting down, bow your head, and walk, if possible, behind
them.
-
11. Shoes
. Shoes are always removed before entering someone's home. a temple.
-
12. Kissing
. Polite Thais never kiss in public, not even in a restaurant, bar,
so wait until you get behind closedoors.
