Nobody Thai reads this site So make a topic about foreigners when it has nothing to do with foreigners? Just because you're concerned about victims of sex trafficking? Not because you have an issue with foreigners so want to say something bad about them? Suuuuure... 7 minutes ago, Iamfalang said: 2. Anti-falang means all foreigners, to me. you can be a black American and you're not white Not really the point. 7 minutes ago, Iamfalang said: 3. Somebody reading this might feel guilty the next time they drag a drunk girl from a bar 4. bar/short-time room.......there is one degree of separation Yes, a sex predatory sex maniac is totally going to see you slagging off foreigners and change their ways... /s ???? 7 minutes ago, Iamfalang said: 5. sex trafficking is sex trafficking and falangs do it.....they just say "oh, she's here because she's happy and trying to make a better life for herself." Whilst sex trafficking is indeed sex trafficking, I seriously doubt any foreigners "traffic" girls. There's a chance, but it wouldn't be as common as you suggest. Meeting a girl in a bar who has been trafficked would not make a person a trafficker of that girl. I'm not even sure that what is happening in the above article actually meets the definition of sex trafficking. 7 minutes ago, Iamfalang said: keep telling yourself that. OK, I'll admit I was told by a falang he did something like this; girl underage, some weird place, paid a madam or whatever, and he was so proud of himself..........and I really ended up hating that guy because of it. That's gross and all, but it doesn't make every foreigner, or even every foreigner who uses the services of bar girls, a sex trafficker. 7 minutes ago, Iamfalang said: so there's that....... Meh. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it seems like you are the one with closed eyes, or far too little experience of Thailand. What about all foreigners assume.....???? What about foreigners don´t care.......???? Eyes closed, and a mind that see everything as good...????? You put yourself as a superior, buy feeding pure lies online.

Scouse123 Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 44 minutes ago, Skeptic7 said: Vast majority are in Nana and Cowboy and Pattaya's Playgrounds and Beer Bars by their own choosing. I've known hundreds of them over my 27 years here and interviewed many. None were forced to do anything by anyone. Free to come and go and do as they pleased. They generally had considerably more control and say than the mamasans and owners. Not forced in the venues I mentioned. Sure, they run into A-hole jerk offs at times and many have told me their stories, but it was fortunately infrequent...but that is a whole different topic. Trafficking here is predominantly Thai on Thai or Thai on Lao/Burmese/Cambo etc and forced "services" provided to Thais. Spot on and that is my understanding and knowledge of it also in my time here, which is the same as yours! Well said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlover Posted April 7, 2022 Share Posted April 7, 2022 53 minutes ago, ozimoron said: 35 minutes ago, Doctor Tom said: My g/f is not from Issan and she says it may look like farang in written form, but it is popularly pronounced falang. Just as Sawadee Krap as a normal greeting is usually pronounced as one word, often shortened to 'waddycap' 53 minutes ago, ozimoron said: That's not right. Thai's sound like they are pronouncing the "R" as an "L" but in fact educated Thais do pronounce the "R". To the untrained western ear, it may sound like an "L" and many Thais do pronounce it that way. I recall a time I went to Starbucks in Central Festival in Pattaya and thanked the barista with "Sawatdee Krup". He responded with extra emphasis on the "R" with a big smile on his face. I guess he felt embarrassed not to. Many Thais drop the "R" in "Krup" altogether but educated Thais don't if they are in any kind of formal setting. The "R" in Thai is not a soft, rolling "R" as it is in English but has a short glottal stop but it definitely is there and is not an "L". You may come across the occasional educated Thai who use pin point correct pronunciation, but most of us don't. And when the average Joe (or Jill) hears a word (from any unfamiliar language) and wants to write it down phonetically, they will inevitably write it as it sounds. Therefor if they hear 'falang' they will write 'falang' and I can see nothing wrong with that. If you knew only the Latin-script English letters but hadn't yet learned any spelling, how would you write down the following words phonetically having only heard them: Asthma, Colonel, embarrass, queue, Pharaoh, receipt. I could go on for a long time! Please go and cast your intellectual superiority elsewhere. We'll stick with falang thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
