“No one knows,” he tells her in a conspiratorial whisper.

I’m guessing that one would need professional certifications or graduate degrees to make the claim to being a geologist.

He should say he majored in geology, not imply that he has done advanced worked work in the field in the recent past.

I get where you’re coming from, but the article states that it’s Thai women themselves that are pushing back against the suggestion to dress more conservatively in order to avoid harassment. I assume they know their own culture.

We had a few non-white families in my town and our Northern area of the country and really thought nothing of it.
