Just curious why do so many Thai girls/women on the site wear braces? In America and Europe, you rarely see adult men or women wear those. I?ve read a newspaper piece that said this was a fashion thing in Thailand and that selling ?fake braces? had in fact become illegal in that country. So if this is a fashion statement what?s the point of it, to try and look younger? What do the guys on the site think about it? Is it the equivalent of American rappers putting fake gold or jewelry pieces in their teethes? I?m really not putting down people that are doing it, just being curious and trying to understand the kind of fashion statement that they are making.

Always wandered why in Thailand at the age of around 18 to 25 girls and guys would wear braces on their teeth, in the UK etc. this is done around the age of 12-15 and is normally a reason to be bullied (tin grin etc.). In Thailand though it seems to be the opposite all the cool kids are doing it. Not sure if theres status, style, or medical reason for this. My original guess is to show wealth again as the family is able to afford it. Seems to be mostly with the university students.. its got me baffled..
