  1. I don't use a halo, I'm just another human being like you. How many hookers have you talked to that were honest about where they came from because this is just from 6 years ago, and I'm sure there are more by now This is from that link I provided, as i think many here don't watch the news or look things up they aren't interested in............According to the Global Slavery Index (2018), there are more than 600,000 victims of human trafficking in Thailand. ..................This of course is all over Thailand, including the fishing boats where those who object somehow disappear.
  2. No, I just research and not form opinions, letting those who actually do the investigating speak. My bias is only there because I don't like seeing this abuse of women or children, and prostitution is high in abuse of those. You treating hookers well is okay, as many don't or do a lot worse. I'm not a prude bu any means. I just dislike bullies, controllers and those that take advantage of the weak. Prostitution is a dangerous trade where many die and most are damaged, and most come from damaged childhoods, so it's a cause for concern when I see so many looking at it as no big deal.
  3. If you're at your desired weight, why worry about complex carbs now? Eating in moderation almost anything is okay. I eat oatmeal every day, and always have eaten Millet Rice, Oat Bran Flakes and a few others which aren't too high and still keep my weight down, even though I'm not working out nearly as much yet. Bamboo is low as is many salad greens. My girlfriend has constipation a lot because of the rice so I try and get her to not only drink more water but eat greens, although she's not really (yet) into foreign food. Here's an Asean link...........https://aseannow.com/topic/1052810-yogurts-sugar-free/.

  5. You can order online and have some sent, although the cost might be high. Plain yogurt usually has no sugar and you can add fruit for taste, along with cereals.
  6. You presumed there isn't much human trafficking here. It's huge, and involves officials, many of whom are caught and fired. I'm not lecturing anyone. I just point out things others seem to miss, or not care about.
  7. Then read more on this subject, like the links I posted, because you're still denying that prostitution has damages to those involved. Reading things increases your knowledge, especially after high school, where many stop reading. Being into a particular interest makes it easier to increase your knowledge because it's like a hobby, things that give you enjoyment and aren't read because you have to. I'm never close minded, if that's what you're referring to. I look at all sides, look at the evidence, then make a decision. Not opinions. Being legal, again, doesn't make it right. It just means those involved are making money from it, just like the wishy washy thinking that goes on here about marijuana. Countries with more modern thinking are legalizing it all the time, because they know it doesn't cause the damage old school thinking makes it out to have. Money always wins. I'm not a religious person per se. I'm a Christian who believes in God, and Jesus as his son and our helper towards God.Pretty simple. I was Cathoilc but changed because some things in it aren't necessary to have a relationship with God. I am not against anyone who wants to talk about anything. What I am against is people hurting women and children, most of who are involved by force or from childhood damage, and think there isn't a better way.
  8. And another, so it's them telling it and not I, who you seem to not believe. This is what I've learned all 50 years, nothing wrong with your choices, but complex have some things simple don't, along with more fiber........https://www.onepeloton.com/blog/complex-carbohydrates/...
  9. This might make it easier.........https://www.healthline.com/health/food-nutrition/simple-carbohydrates-complex-carbohydrates#carbs-to-eat-more-of
  10. Easy to find one of many links, and I never have partaken here..............https://theexodusroad.com/human-trafficking-in-thailand/
  11. Like I said, there are thousands of jobs available in Thailand besides prostitution. I know fully well what happens with locals and their inability to stick around after a child is born. The courts are to blame because they don't enforce child support here for anyone besides foreigners. Make a boy pay and he'll be more likely to use protection from then on.
  12. Where have I said I despise them? I feel sorry for them, seeing most of them are there not by choice but by fear or coercion. The others are there because of childhood trauma. The real problem isn't them but who hires them and puts them into slavery for their gains. The same goes for illegal migrants. I fully understand their plight , needing work, but it's not them but the rich who hire them who are at fault.
  13. I haven't dodged anything. I fully explained that complex carbs are okay, as long as you aren't overweight or obese, where then you would need to cut back on them and eat veggies and fruits that are lower in carbs, like mushrooms, green and wax beans, lettuce, bean sprouts, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, cukes, celery, bamboo, strawberries, berries, cantaloupe, melon, and other lower carb fruit and veggie choices. If your weight is normal, then the complex carbs are a healthy choice to eat. In this case theres no need to give up anything that grows. It's man made things and food with added sugar and salt, plus liquid calories, that gets people to gain weight fast.
  14. It doesn't matter if it's legal or not. Things get legalized for many reasons and money is a top one, outweighing rational thinking many times. You're still not getting the point. The damage prostitution does to those involved. If you don't care, don't comment. Booze is legal and kills thousands yearly. Prostitution is legal and hidden in a lot of places and it kills thousands yearly, and permanently damages many others. Read more, talk less, because your arguments aren't valid. You are one sided because you pursue women for cash, contributing to the problem. God himself could come down and tell you it's wrong, and you would argue just for the sake of, because that's what a person in denial with little knowledge of the damage this trade causes those involved, besides the ones making a profit from it.
  15. That explains how the Thai women are in general. I was referring to the fact that hookers everywhere are much the same, in their thinking and background, why they became prostitutes. Thailand has long been known as a sex capital because of its cheap sex trade and poverty explains some of that, but there are other options. Why they get into it in the first place stems from childhood trauma unless they are forced or coerced, and that happens everywhere. The slave trade takes advantage of the minorities because of lower intelligence and them being closer to poverty and debt issues. .
  16. Best hooker buyer, most hookers bought in a single year, most miles driven drunk, most times driving home while inebriated, the most hookers from different nationalities, the most ridiculous replies on AN? These would fill a small room perhaps but have little meaning. I also have a lot of achievements in lifting which mean nothing to most anyone else, nor much to me now as an older man.
  17. Bravo! I'm of course against hurting women or children and prostitution has damages that go far beyond what johns usually see, but as you pointed out, this is one thing many don't realize. The aftereffects can sometimes be human beings.
  18. Another link for you to ponder...https://universeoffaith.org/i-work-with-prostitutes-the-negative-effects-of-prostitution/
  19. No, what most people probably think of when they talk about Thai hookers is the cheap price. For what some pay in NYC for a night with a hooker you could get 10 here. All hookers have skills if they've been in the game long enough. The same goes for a good wife who's treated well. She wants to please her good man. I personally like the Thai woman looks but there are ladies from all nationalities that are gorgeous also. And from what experience are you saying they make all others seems like amateurs? I have almost no experience because i stopped buying at age 18, but I'm guessing you're a world traveled john with many purchases under his belt?
  20. Explain what makes you better than me. I'm most likely at a much higher IQ than you are, judging from your replies that are based on opinions only and not factual, and that much of the time make little to no sense besides being an insult from jealousy that you don't understand a particular subject as I do. Physically I don't know because I haven't seen you, but being a weight trainer and martial artist for 50 years does put me in an area many won't enter. Not better, just different. I have relationships, something unlike what you've said you do and are into purchasing women for your sexual wants. I don't pay, but get it because I treat the women I've been with properly, so they trust me and feel comfortable with me. I have raised my children, mostly by myself, something many fathers don't or won't do, because a lot would rather spend time with women or friends than their children. After all of this, In Gods eyes we are all still equal, although some are lowlifes and some are decent people. I'm thinking you're the one who's lost in lala land, because I'm doing okay.
  21. What status is that? Do you somehow think you are above these streetwalkers, us or anyone else alive? Fact is, no one is any better than anyone else, and money doesn't make it so. There are countless lowlifes in high places, as you can see in our world leaders and what's going on because of them, along with the daily destruction of our earth by billionaires who's only agenda is making more money to stay in that "status" lifestyle.
  22. Sorry you didn't comprehend what it said, but there are others. And her sticking up for a woman's rights and wanting human trafficking and prostitution to stop is somehow wrong? Here's another link for you, although you'll probabaly make another excuse for it being wrong......https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_of_prostitution_on_mental_health.
  23. I really do know quite a lot about women, making learning about them one of my real devotions, as I like women, and loved quite a few, without taking advantage of any of them or feeling the need to pay for any after I turned 18. Your failure to answer my question shows you really do not have any understanding of what makes a woman tick, and only buy them because of this fact. Prostitution is wrong anywhere it happens. It degrades women, as does most porn, and it favors men, albeit disturbed ones who need to dominate or control to feed their low self esteem and false alpha male egos. Women are the same everywhere, with the same wants and needs. Thinking they are different because of living in another country is wrong. Some cultures suppress women and some of their desires, but that doesn't mean they aren't there, wanting to get out. Prostitutes are the same everywhere, and they get into , or are forced into it, for the same reasons. Greed and power, on the man's side, or a damaged childhood including abuse or molestation. Read more, comment less, then you'll understand things you obviously don't. maybe.
  24. Undesirable to who? And what makes their desires mean anything as desire is personal. Some women considered hot aren't to many men, and some men considered hot aren't to many women. Most people get into relationships at some period in their lives so they must be finding some that are desirable to them. This of course means leaving out the greedy women, who will obviously sleep with anything for money, desirable or not.
  25. So Thailand hookers are different than those around the world? In what way? Where do you get this thinking from? Your feet might be in Thailand but your head is in the clouds.
