Your estimation on P4P tourism percentage

[socrate]

I would like to know if my estimation of more than 50% of the tourism to Pattaya is "romantic", "for the girls" tourism than anything else?

 

The number is probably smaller for Phuket and Bangkok.

 

I would like to hear your opinions.

 

Thanks

P4P tourism income for places like Pattaya etc are dwarfed by the P4P income locally generated by Thais.

Overweight skint 60+ men slobbering all over a girl a third of their age (and less) for a few seconds is pushing the notion of 'romance' to an extreme level !

 

 

Can we have less of the "overweight" please ????

i would say you are correct. the first time any farang woman with a family googles "Pattaya" she would know it is not for her.

 

and the answer to the question from a Thai woman "Have you ever been to Pattaya?" can be a deal breaker for starting a relationship. 

 

Bangkok is a starting point for tourists.

51.67%

[Pilotman]

Less than 0.002%

 

Who knows, who cares why others come here. I just know that I stay well away from them.

 Likely 50% of single - non tour bus visitors are in town for a little companionship....Men and Women

More Women Are Exploring Sex Tourism—and I Was One of Them

"With her hand now on my knee, it almost felt like we were just girlfriends on vacation. She seemed genuinely interested in me and eager to confide in me, and I’d always craved this sort of attention from a woman, but somehow, in this moment, I just wanted to get down to business"

Do they come only for p4p? Lots of places to go for that. I'd say that most just appreciate the fact that something is available if they so desire while enjoying the other things that made their decision: the food, an affordable vacation, health care without going bankrupt, 200 baht massages (most places no longer offer extras), golf, sand, and eye candy.

No man is more in love than the ones you describe freshly escaped from the Bible pounding, screeching feminist West. Give them a few moments of happiness before leaving the Earth forever.

First post (and until now unique post) and already launching a troll

 

With more than 8 millions tourists coming in Pattaya, and most of them from China and India (non P4P), you will have huge difficulties to reach your 50% even in supposing that everyone else is there for P4P !

And the few seconds, if you don't mind.

17) You will not discuss the specifics of prostitution. Though Thailand has a visible sex industry, and acknowledgement of that fact is not forbidden, ThaiVisa is not the place to seek or give information on this topic, regardless of your sexual habits, preferences or orientation.
