Sex in Bangkok's parks: Will governor be forced to swallow his words?

 

Picture: Sanook

 

After the governor of Bangkok claimed there was no sex going on in Bangkok's parks comes more evidence of night time activity in the capital.

 

Sanook reporters went in search of evidence at two locations - and they found plenty.

 

In their headline they blamed the gay community - it was man on man, they said.

 

Earlier a Twitter user had sparked the controversy by saying that he saw men engaging in sexual acts in Lumpini park while out jogging.

 

Gays were engaging in oral sex and other activities near an octagonal pavilion, said Sanook.

 

The deputy governor pooh-poohed such a suggestion in the 35 parks under his control - he even said he would cough up 100,000 baht if it could be proved otherwise.

 

He may soon be forced to open his wallet after Sanook went to Phuttamonthon Sai 2 Park west of Bangkok and Suan Rot Fai (the Railway park) in Chatuchak district.

 

At Phuttamonthon cleaning ladies said they were fed up with all the used condoms they found. There were up to 30 a day by a shrine, near a ping pong table and near a pond used to rear fish.

 

But not just that.

 

They often found tissues sullied by fecal matter and even discarded underwear.

 

Sanook reporters had a hunt and turned up ten condoms and dirty tissues themselves.

 

They then went to Suan Rot Fai that is a very popular park in the northern Bangkok area.

 

Here they spoke to people doing fitness who said they had not seen it with their own eyes but it surely went on in the shadows.

 

Head of security there said he had not seen it either, though what went on in the darker areas of the park was hard to police.

 

If they found any illegal activity - and sex in a public park in Thailand is just that - they would call the police, he said.

Wonder if the governor swallows or not ? A poor choice of headlines considering the subject matter perhaps ?

Incredible ?

[taichiplanet]

very funny headline. I guess with any criticism he gets, he will just have to suck it up.

At present time he is trying as hard as he can to swallow, in the belief that if the evidence disappear it never existed.

I  think he'll be  "gagging"  after this

At least they're practising safe sex. When you are rearing fish, you never know what you might catch.

[sammieuk1]

Presumably the deputy governor is now gagging at the thought of his reward offer?

Possibly a scale tail ?

Its well known that public toilets and parks around the world are meeting places for men looking to hook up with other men for sex and about the only way to discourage it is to put extra strong lighting and cameras where it takes place .

The reality is that this happens, hereto sex and gay sex, all over the world, for thousands of years.

 

Let's move on...

The big question is does the deputy governor swallow or not?

Well, he did spit out a fairly vehement denial, so possibly not a regular swallow-er.

Does seem he might need to swallow his words though.

Fish being "reared" is not the only thing being "reared".

[cyberfarang]

Lock the parks up at night, and stop allowing these gay men free entry.

I heard that was more dolphins (only from what I've read, of course) Unless there are some in Lumphini - swimming, not barbecued. Now don't carp on about it, this is not the right plaice, you old trout.

in my home country they discourage it by locking the john most of the time so nobody can take a leak or a dump

Thai elitists do not have a very good grip on reality.  People have been talking about Lumpini park for years.  Perhaps because foreigners were not involved, it was of little interest until now.   The park caters both to straight and gay people.

Which had a profound effect on park squirrels ..

When I was young we often had sex in the parks or woods when there was nowhere else available.  Soon as we were old enough to get a car then that replaced the outdoors but it was still fun to do it alfresco.  Just leave them to it as long as they do it covertly!

The next fines for any traffic violation committed by Sanook editors just ten-folded. The governor needs tons of cash for all the unearthed evidence.

That's quite a trick, swallowing his words and coughing up 100k. Very funny article, strewn with innuendo...

The principle is the same, gay or straight.  Everyone has the right to do their own thing.  As for sex in the park in Bangkok, try taking a walk through any of them at night and you will see plenty of straight sex going on.

[Destiny1990]

Well i sure he will have good explanation for all the used Condoms and empty lube tubes in the park..When is his next interview?

Last time I reared a fish I wound up with fin rot on my snakehead, and my pollocks got such a bad case of dropsy I couldn't wear my codpiece for a month.
