snoop1130 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Thai net groans after politicos declare war on 'Sex Education' By Jintamas Saksornchai, Staff Reporter A promotional image for Netflix series 'Sex Education' that appeared on several billboards in Bangkok, drawing complaints from a conservative political party. Image: Netflix Thailand / Facebook BANGKOK — A political party was treated to an internet flambe for its denunciation of the “immoral” marketing for a popular Netflix series about teen sex education. Netizens brigaded the Ponlamuang Thai Party’s social media page after it announced Monday that members had complained to broadcasting regulators about giant billboards promoting “Sex Education.” The heretofore unknown party said the ads amounted to “illegal activity of a transnational corporation” that would “negatively affect the youth and create social problems.” Full Story: http://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2019/01/22/thai-net-groans-after-politicos-declare-war-on-sex-education/ — Khaosod English 2019-01-22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkidlad Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 I’ve seen this advertised on the MRT. Wondered if there would be any complaints. I mean young people talking about and engaging in sex as if it was something that could be enjoyed. How immoral. Meanwhile, corruption is fine.

darksidedog Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 More prehistorical thinking going on then. How on earth they think they are going to get votes when obviously living so far in the past is beyond me. Sex education is a very good thing that should not be thought of as negatively affecting the youth or creating social problems. It is not giving such education that causes that. Maybe they should call themselves the backward buffalo party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fittobethaied Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Actually, if you go to the official website for this series you will see a few trailers that show exactly what this series is all about. It is not about sex education...it is extremely suggestive and promotes masturbation, sex outside of marriage and sex among the youth. Just another example of the West exporting their promiscuity and sin to the rest of the world. I can't blame the Thais for being upset. They're already losing a generation of kids to the filthy behavior of the West thanks to the internet. https://www.netflix.com/th-en/title/80197526 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The citizens here really need to good bitch slap to admit the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramr Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I'm actually sympathetic to those who would want to preserve (the best of) traditional Thai values. But the finger-waggers and hand-wringers would do much better to be offended by media that promotes stupidity and selfishness, which would be about 75% of American programming and 95% of Thai programming at my rough estimate. Gotta pick your battles wisely and gotta tend your own garden first, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, but they need to blame something external, as honest and public introspection is anathema to Thais, unless perhaps they've lived abroad.

GarryP Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I have watched every episode of this series and enjoyed it thoroughly. The title may be slightly misleading , but nevertheless appropriate. But there really is nothing that is not already going on in Thai schools (except for sex education). Teen pregnancy in Thailand has increased considerably over the past decade or so and, as far as I am aware, that is a result of putting a certain body part into another body part. So the kids already seem to know how to use their parts. If only sex education were taught in school, they would perhaps start covering up and not screwing up their lives. Brought to you by the winner of a middle school sex education quiz, who was too embarrassed to tell his parents. They found out from other sources.

Sex outside of marriage is a daily normality in a country where 'Marriage' is deemed to be something you get at a Village party where money is handed over to the family of the 'Wife' (who is effectively 'bought') and thereafter the couple can screw their socks off for evermore, be it with their 'Marriage' partner or anyone else they fancy. The Youth of the country have been screwing in the School Toilets before and after lessons for many decades and have set records for underage pregnation; as usual leaders of Asia in everything that is bad. Strange then that you blame the 'Promiscuity and Sin' exported by The West ! Living here for the last twelve years and looking at the generations of young people spawned i would say that Parenting and Education standards here are what is responsible for 'losing' any generation either now or in the future. The Thai's living in constant denial are their own worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not 'promote' any of these things, it simply shows a very true and accurate reflection of today's youth. If you think this is going to promote promiscuity and sin in Thailand then i suggest you open your eyes and look at the huge problem of Teenage pregnancy and STD's that this country is experiencing. This is mainly due to the complete lack of education and guidance given to teenagers in Thailand in these matters. This program might actually help to reduce some of this by showing the use of contraceptives and dealing in a light hearted and adult manner with the issues.
