I've lost count of the number of times Thai and Japanese men have asked me why western men like ugly Thai / Japanese women. I think there's a taste difference, with a lot of western men liking more tan women, but I also think it's down to low hanging fruit and not being bothered to put in the effort to get a higher standard. I lived in Thailand for over 4 years, went out almost every night, and can count on one hand the amount of foreign men I saw with quality. A lot of men in the expat scene have got a lot going for them as well (looks, money, etc.), but they have no idea how to really put it to use, or are just not built for the game and so settle with the first half decent girl that comes along.
