tigermonkey 419 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Are TV members hypocites ? If we have a thread about the Thaksin 'assets' case --- everyone says "The law is the law" -- no leniency -- take the money and lynch him ! ...but now when it comes to sex --- so what if prostitution is illegal -- noone says "the law is the law - put all of the prostitutes in jail " -- no none of us are here for sex -- really ??

tonititan 31 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hoteliers who allow guests to bring in prostitutes are aiding and abetting prostitution and therefore the hotel owners should also be arrested and charged.Right?! Duh! Wrong! What sort of cold war police state are you proposing? does my wife have to carry a copy of her marriage certificate wherever she goes? do es a de-facto relationship stop you from staying at a hotel? remember, quite a lot of buddhist marriages are not registered. if we're not legally married, but I give her housekeeping money, does that make her a prostitute? Try telling a bar-girl that she's a prostitute (so-pee-nee) and you will get an interesting result. In her mind, she just has a lot of boyfriends. Ummm...sarcasm, I believe.

witsawakorn 20 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Despite the serious nature of the charges, there was no mention of any criminal charges filed against the venue owners. And how about the male customers? Were any of them rounded up and fined? That's crap. Maybe they will get DNA samples from the condoms and start knocking on doors soon:-) Link to post Share on other sites
crusader79 210 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 '874 User(s) are reading this topic (631 Guests and 2 Anonymous Users)'..... Huh, on most of the threads I join, I'm lucky to find two other users...clearly I need to get out more Link to post Share on other sites
happyinkathu 0 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hoteliers who allow guests to bring in prostitutes are aiding and abetting prostitution and therefore the hotel owners should also be arrested and charged.Right?! Right on!And some hotels make more baht than the prostitutes by having you pay the ''joining fee'' Had some mates over last November ,all three booked into a popular mid-up market hotel in patong, and first night out , met the willing ladies and whipped back to the hotel with them. Reception stops them and ''sorry, you can not take the lady to your room''.. we paid for double room already so we can take them. NO says reception you can not..But if you pay 2000 baht each, OK then you can take to your room. They are aiding and abetting for sure and also profiting from an illegal activity.

rodcourt49 100 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Surely there are more than 57 women in Phuket? Why not just arrest them all and discard a few? Were there any ladyboys included in that figure I wonder? No..this was just in the 1st street! Link to post Share on other sites
srisatch 0 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Let's hope the police don't ever find out about what goes on in Bangla Road... Oh I think Tanon Phum Phon Soi 11 Amphur Muang Phuket is probably where they should look, if the fuzz wish to score/in need of pocket money.Is the end of the month after all. Scores of Burmese "citizens" or "denizens" there and farang definitely "discouraged". Can a noodle tax be far behind? Link to post Share on other sites
brianb1944 48 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Good for them. I wouldn't mind a nice big prostitution crackdown. I can't stand it when the first thing people say when I say I live in Thailand is something about the women or sex or prostitution or AIDS. Sex will always be easy to come by here for foreigners, but it does not need to be advertised so openly and for sale everywhere you go. Welcome to the real world Link to post Share on other sites

robertsonmartin 0 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hoorah, another crackdown... Can't believe there are such establishments here. Link to post Share on other sites
cognos 4 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 ..fine with me..MOST of the " farang johns" are real "operators", that have no problem picking up women wherever they live, and they can "easily" just meet nice Thai women that do not work in the sex industry, and I just arrived from PLUTO. After all, they were not buying "prostitutes" in farang land, rather they were hanging out solo at home, with the curtains drawn, propping up the porn industry, and counting the days until they returned to Soi 6, Nana, or Bangla Road. ..as for the Thai men, gosh, maybe they can move to Utah and join the Mormom polygamists... better yet, maybe they can inseminate 18 year old Thai women, and hang around to look after their progeny.

Hardback 419 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I wonder if Thailand is reaching the "Tipping Point" as in the authorities are increasingly uncomfortable with the LOS's international reputation with respect to prostitution. Of course it could also just be an isolated case of some owner(s) not tendering the usual tea money to the proper persons. My gut tells me that the naughty night life scene may not be encouraged as in the past and only tolerated if it is more discreet. Time will tell Out of sight out of mind...works very well here.

maraudingscot 84 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 So if they continue to do raids. That would mean most of the girls would go home! lol Best open a place up in Isaan and sit back and wait for the influx of bus loads of Farangs, heading to their new vacation spot!!

featography 204 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 the only difference between prostitution and marriage is some guys like to pay for each round and others like to run a tab - either way, you pay in the end. No truer words have been spoken before Link to post Share on other sites
lounger 46 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Hoorah, another crackdown... Valentines day is coming up The police need funds for their giks... A decent sub from the owner who was behind on his payments and a whip round from the sex tourists who dont want to be deported. On the other hand Its an exercise to see if Taxin could have amassed 76billion as a policeman before he went into politics Link to post Share on other sites
