A lot actually.

If there wasn't a market for it, they wouldn't be here. Same for the ladyboys, the wannabe ladyboys, the "rather chubby" girls and the Russian/Uzbek hookers. If there wasn't a demand for them, you wouldn't see them at all.

Years ago there used to be a semi-regular "round up" of Uzbeki hookers on Walking Street. I wrote a post about it and someone basically called me a liar and said it didn't happen so I went back through about 2 years of ThaiVisa threads and linked all the times there was an article about another round up of Uzbeki hookers. 

Of course I was right. For awhile it was almost like clockwork that every 3-4 months there'd be another announcement that the police had arrested a bunch of them and they were being deported.

I had a suspicion that what was really happening was that their pimps were simply using the police to get rid of the "old stock" so they could bring in a fresh batch of girls. I figured that maybe for the first few weeks the girls were earning their keep but then started keeping more of their earnings for themselves.

When their earnings dropped to a certain point, their pimps would alert the police who'd round them up and deport them (at gov't expense of course). Saves the pimps from having to fly them home !

 

People wondered back then what the attraction was as most people coming to Thailand weren't looking for "white women". According to one of the Uzbekis, they would target "old white men sitting alone in beer bars".

Why ?

Because many of those "old white men" were lonely, couldn't speak the local language and were maybe a little homesick. 

Suddenly there's a white chick that speaks English (as most of the Uzbeki hookers apparently did) sitting next to you, letting you know she's available for more than just a quick grope of your upper thigh.
Hook, line and sinker. 

And most of them were not exactly "top quality". (The better ones either end up in Russia or the Middle East.)
Same with a lot of the Africans. A lot of the "hot" ones end up in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and other M.E. destinations. The "not so hot" ones end up in places like Pattaya.

I had to lol at one guy I worked with in Afghanistan. He wouldn't believe me when I told him about Pattaya. He thought Dubai was heaven on earth with all the Chinese and African hookers in the hotel bars and nightclubs. He did go to Pattaya once though, with a girl he'd picked up in Dubai.
Within a couple days he was running around trying to figure out how to get rid of the woman he'd brought so he could chase all the nicer ones he was seeing in Pattaya.
Silly goose !
 

 

Kerryd  did you finally get your PH D ?

Poor chap , that jet lag does get to you  ........I seem to remember a long time ago there was a cure ........ Concorde !

It all seems a bit unfair to me  ...Trump saw a jugular and went for it .

A bit like asking a Tiger to go easy on that poor lamb !

This is terrible news. I suppose the verdict here essentially takes us back to 1997 when the then PM John Major prorogued parliament for 3 weeks to stop an inquiry into his govts corruption. So by the fruit of the poisoned tree principles anything that took place after this illegal act effectively didn't happen. All jails will be emptied(except for the few lifers convicted before 1997), all buildings made after 1997 will be tore down as planning has been deemed null and void. At least we can smoke inside pubs again, as from 20 minutes ago.

 The ramifications of this will be earth shattering. All to undo the democratic will and referendum result voted by 17.4 million people. Let the madness begin!

Topdead actually unless I'm missing something .......I woke up this morning and felt  just fine !

Any reports of missing crocodiles ?

I thought the re-enactment / confession  was then  accepted as part of the court case and saved the cost of further investigation etc  . It was supposed to be  discontinued but I suppose old habbits die hard .

He may have met his Waterloo  , sorry Dunkirk with this one !

I don't really think her deserved to be fired .. .after all he only wanted to bomb them back to the bronze age !

Understand some of the ultra luxury  Asian shopping centres are in shock !

Well its a good thing they didn't  get him for picking illegal wild mushrooms !

I said the same thing to my wife... before …..the divorce . !

Seems the only proper, logical ,  response is to short the market tomorrow am !

[They] work on the belief that time smooths everything away. It usually works. How long before the disbelief just melts into disinterest. Anyone still talking about the massive inconsistences in the LV shooting report? Hard to find anything on it.

Not sure about that ,   Doc ,  I would still like to know (for sure !) how Marilyn died and who killed Kennedy and I was just a kid then . !

Does Trumps art of the deal include any mercy for those turning up with a begging bowl ?

I think some people will be having  'irregular '  bowel movements before this is all put too bed . ! 

I got  to  quite like my  burgundy  passport over the years .

The blue/black one seems a bit gloomy and old hat in comparison.

Great news , that means they already  paid back the huge loan they got for the Riviera a while back ???

Some of these arguments sound a bit  'thin ' to me !

Think I'll go get a Big Mac !

Let the games carry one !

I blame the NRA …  Not Responsible Adults .

There will be a world digital currency backed by many central banks, not just the US. The US$ as the world's reserve currency will end. I am not talking Bitcoin. Something far more advanced than that. 

You mean is Littlebitcoin  ?

Usually the Canadians are such well behaved people . Must be a recent arrival !
