Ärende: Thai girls
==================
 MA>> Very few are under age. As i said it does happen but not as much as you
 MA>> would think. Trust me on this.

 BF>> Have you seen it with your own eyes like I have?

 MA> Can't say I have.

Ok.

 BF>> Once a girl came up to me and asked me from where I am and took out a
 BF>> form to fill in what kind of girl I wanted and I could order anything
 BF>> from that "menu".

 MA> What was on the menu?

Whatever you would desire.

 MA> Do they home deliver?

I didn't ask. She went away when the wife came up and asked me what I was
doing. :-(

 MA>>> Thai girls are money hungry even by western standards so any chance they
 MA>>> get to blackmail you they will and so will her family.

 BF>>> From our Thai friends we have learned that the girls family have nothing
 BF>>> to do with this.

 MA>> Yes they do. Thai's all have friends of friends and if you put your self
 MA>> in a vulnrable position they will milk you for all your worth.

 BF>> Then you have a very "disturbed" opinion of the Thai people.

 MA> I'm talking from the experience of those that have lived here far longer
 MA> than I, and several hapless victims.

Of course there exists rotten apples everywhere, even in Sweden but because
of that most people are good.

 BF>>> Most girls comes from up north, Burma, Laos or
 BF>>> Cambodia and are "sold" to pimps here because there isn't much else they
 BF>>> can make money on.

 MA>> I don't know who you have been talking to. Thai girls don't have pimps
 MA>> but may have boy friends who drop them of and pick them up from the bars.
 MA>> They are quite open about this and often the boy is from their own
 MA>> village.

 BF>> From where have you heard this?

 MA> From the girls. I do actualy talk to them, you know.

I haven't but my Thai friends have.

 BF>> So you haven't heard about the Russian mob taking over that kind of
 BF>> things here?

 MA> Nup. They arrested a Russian gun runner in Bangkok. I'm not sure if that
 MA> falls under the heading of bar trade.

Yeah, I saw that but didn't know he was Russian.

 MA>> If anything it would be western girls that would fall under contol of a
 MA>> pimp.

 BF>> You haven't been to "our" street then.

 MA> Cheap hotel, huh?

No, but there still are pimps. We've heard them fight with one of the girls one
night that did wake us up.

 MA>> Nearly every bar has a head girl who checks the ID of the staff. The only
 MA>> time a bar deliberatly employs under age girls is when a stupid forigner
 MA>> runs the entire show. They don't last long.

 BF>> The Russians are.

 MA> What friging Russians? I've never met one.

Then, do a visit to Pattaya.
The signs are changing from English to Russian.

 MA>> Things may be different in Pattaya but here the girls call the shots.

Maybe so but not in Pattaya.

 BF>> And where is "here"?

 MA> Patong.

I've been to Patong Beach so I guess that that's somewhere on Phucket
Island? In that case it's a pity I didn't know, we could have met.

 BF>> Last year the Russian mob ordered the killing of a Russian girl that had
 BF>> come here to help.

 MA> Was she helping them to sell drugs?

I don't think they ever really found out why she was killed but they also
killed
an innocent girl she had met on the plane.

 MA>>> I have to smile at some of the aging fat slobs that walk hand in hand
 MA> with
 MA>>> their new "girl friend". They honestly believe the dear young thing
 MA>>> loves them. A few days later you see them full of woe. The sweetness of
 MA>>> their life has made off with their bank card, passport and just about
 MA>>> anything of value the hopeless chump had. If you must a pretty young
 MA>>> thing have her for one night and make sure you put anything of value in
 MA>>> a safe if you take her back to your own place. Make sure you do it
 MA>>> before sleep.

 BF>>> And how do you know this?

 MA>> I've lived here for over a year. Like most tourists you doubt what I say.

Most of them are looking for an older guy to marry, the older the better and
follow them home and wait till he dies. Then they go back to Thailand, rich as
a king.

 BF>> I've spent some time in Thailand as well and have got some really good
 BF>> Thai friends and they do not confirm your opinion.

 MA> My opinion about what?

Thai people.

 MA> It's highly unlikely that a Thai person would have
 MA> the same expierances as some sad fat prick of a tourist would have
 MA> regarding bar girls. I'm not a tourist nor am I a sad fat prick. ;)

My friends are in the tourism buisness.

 MA>> You are a babe in the woods. I know whole bunches of bar girls
 MA>> and I love them all to pieces. I just make sure I only let them take what
 MA>> I can afford and enough to put a smile on their sweet faces.

 BF>> You must have been hanging out on the most "exotic" bars in Thailand

 MA> By nature the bars in Thailand would seem exotic to westerners, but they
 MA> are just practical meeting places for people in a tropical country.

Like in Sweden, it's in bars of this kind the shady people hangs out.

 BF>> This is not my opinion of a normal Thai person.

 MA> Your opinion of Thai's could be tainted by your western upbringing. I have
 MA> a great deal of respect for Thai people and their culture. I just don't
 MA> see them through rose coloured glasses.

I don't either, knowing that there are rotten apples all over the world but so
far
everyone have been extremly kind and helpful and it's only in a hotel in
Cambodia that we've had been blown on a $ or 2.
