Speaking of white skinned girls, I've been hearing that the best and most beautiful girls of the country are in Chiang Mai. Can any of you guys who have been or even better, lived in CM chip on the girls their, looks wise and attitude wise?
I stayed 3 days in Chiang Mai and didn't really leave 'old city'.
Honestly, I didn't notice much difference in quality. In Bangkok you will walk past 20 stunners browsing through Terminal 21. Chiang Mai has a much smaller population, therefore a smaller amount of attractive girls.
Chaing Mai is worth checking out but I wouldn't expect a significant increase in quality opposed to BKK
Old City is not representative of Chiang Mai quality in any way, shape, or form. Staying there also makes the city seem much, much smaller than it actually is...It's like Khao San in BKK, Old Quarter in Hanoi, Pub Street in Siem Reap, or Riverside in Phnom Penh. Disneyland for old expats and backpackers who want to hang out with people just like themselves.
And 3 days...? Not to harp on you too much, but it's never enough to get an accurate sense of a place's potential. Just for a dash of perspective, would you take anything seriously that a guy said about BKK who had only been there for 3 days and never left Khao San Road area?
Chiang Mai especially seems to take some time to get to know. I remember for the first two weeks looking around wondering what the big deal was, and for the years that I lived there all other tourists passing through briefly like that seemed to be scratching their heads in the same manner.
All that said, VP, there will be higher quality women
available to you in Bangkok. It's an international city with international dating habits. In Chiang Mai, there is a very substantial local stigma about mainstream, quality women being seen with foreigners. The city is only so big and women with options have a reputation to uphold. And they are well aware that Lanna beauties are the most esteemed women of the region.
If you do go to CM, I recommend posting up in beer gardens that have the girls in beer and whiskey dresses walking around filling glasses. To be found in nice restaurants and in the shopping centers. Flirt, go for number, hit up later and invite to disco. By disco, I do not mean the bars and clubs located in the center! lol
This will be your best, quickest odds for getting in with a hot local who isn't an Old Center skeeze (though the nature of her work means she gets hit on a ton and may have been passed around by quite a few Thais). These girls often are some of the best-looking around and since they (kind of) work in a bar, they are a bit more liberated.
If you have game and patience and don't mind an even smaller city with a limited (but not nonexistent) club scene, locate yourself in Chiang Rai, Phayao, or Lampang (all places touted as having the hottest women in Thailand, depending on which Thai man you ask). Same look to the girls and same overall feel but not quite as stuck up as some of the Chiang Mai girls. And you'll have more of an exotic appeal in these places. Then again, they're even smaller cities so if you want to run through numbers, they may not be your best bet for long-term fun.
These are great places if you're down with a long-term girlfriend and want to access the best-looking possible broad that you can.
For the majority of posters, Bangkok will indeed be the ideal spot.
