Bar owners are finding it hard to recruit Thai girls

Most Indian males are quite ugly in the eyes of Thai girls, many have large pot bellies and almost always a strong body odour follows them. Indian culture is male dominated and patriarchal, often they don't know how to properly treat girls. They can be cheap charlies and it is well known for them to share their drinks and girls, often seen negotiating to take a single girl between 4 or 5 men. Thai girls are many things, but they are not stupid and they see all this.

I have often heard BG say to me, I do not go with to young man, old man, fat man, India man or Muslims, and not even finished another glass of beer, seeing them head out with first and best customer that is willing to pay.

 

The girls get broken in, and only thing that can prevent them from going with any man, is the bar and what kind of customers they have.

No there is not.  If a bar girl makes 1,000 a night that's 30,000 bht.  That's great !!! Better then working for some Thai loser who pays 10,000bht. Correct.  Smarts girls are making 60 to 100,00 bht a month.  I said smart.  Not pretty. 

Most girls in busy times I knew, "only"

 

2-4 take outs every week, some younger managed more even in one day, but normal decent beer bar girls, aimed for long term holiday gf only, and when had a man promising coming back, some only went short times, and was available almost 24 hours for any who checking them up. Of course those who was popular had a few more on gras.

I met a girl at a bar on Walking Street who told me she loved groups of Indian guys. According to her they were quick, clean and polite. Two hours of work could result in 4,000-6,000 baht and it was basically just vanilla sex. Easy money. I was surprised at this. And I guess she might not be representative of the majority in Pattaya. But it's an interesting viewpoint.

The game has changed. Those still in the game, if they have any brains at all, are offering their wares on Thai Friendly or elsewhere. Why go through the bar nonsense, rowdy drunks, etc. when they can get a few customers a day on the internet?

True but lets face it apart from high end gogo girl eg Baccara in Bangkok that are killing it doing live shows on line most of the girls in Pattaya are dogs and would struggle

How long are you in Thailand? How long do you know about the bar business?

Because recruiting good girls and keeping them in bars is not a new problem. That is normal since many years.

At least the pretty young girls can go wherever they want, almost any bar will employ them right away.

Why do people persist in this silly misquotation? Prostitution is regulated under a number of pieces of legislation.

Well from i see in pattaya….the girls sent their mothers and grandma s to work in pattaya.  

The bad news is, they are actually the same girls.....

After the next High Season starts, this will all be forgotten. 

 

Except that bar owners will always complain about lack of girls.

And probably about a lack of customers too.

"Apparently when many girls had returned during a previous lull in Covid regulations last year, had rented rooms and paid deposits only to find everything was forced to close again."

Ahem:- 

 

"Prostitution is illegal in Thailand, but the laws are ambiguous and often unenforced. As a result, red-light districts, massage parlors, go-go bars, and sex-focused karaoke bars are common sights."

If you think paying for sexual services is wrong, you may be in the wrong country, maybe even in the wrong continent.

No I don't at all, I just think that bar owners are sleazy reprobates who take advantage of poor uneducated girls desperate for money.  I prefer to see them online, where they keep all the money and can pick and choose.

And that's where you (or rather Google) are wrong.  The act of paying someone for sexual services is not illegal in Thailand; in fact the laws are not dissimilar to the UK, where the act itself is not illegal, although many aspects surrounding it are.

The girls are still plying their trade.  More so than ever due to the lack of alternative work. 

 

The real issue is that beer bars and go gos are an obsolete business model.

 

They are akin to buggy whip factories.

 

The girls have already adapted into online business.

 

The fat stupid old dinosaurs that own and rent bar and go go properties in Pattaya, Phuket and other tourist centers have yet to have the penny drop.

Partly agree, as imagine internet hook-ups have much increased. However in Hua Hin the girls are clamouring to get a stool at all the new little bars opening up around Soi 94. Not my cup of tea, but as my wife says, they are doing what they need/enjoy to look after themselves and often family.

Find Thai tolerance so refreshing and legacy, religious based Western judgements quite pathetic as well as out of touch with the world at large - now and for the centuries beforehand.

100% correct.  Its not finished - like many things, its the format that's changed.

you've got some serious hang-ups bro. puritanical upbringing perhaps (like mine)? seriously, please sell professional help as it's not healthy carrying all that baggage.

Not a bit of it, I just hate exploitation of vulnerable girls ( and boys I guess)  and what amounts  to domestic trafficking.  Let the girls ply their trade online if they wish, clear of the sleaze balls that own bars. If you want to see where all this ends up, or starts, watch the many videos of girls' being trafficked into the sex trade  in Cambodia, lots of them on U Tube.  It happens here too.

Good, that's where they should stay, choose when and with whom, no explotative contract with some low life bar owner,  and they keep all their money.

They also get exploited on 'onlyfans' if they have a handler, which most do.

That would explain why when I took my brother for a drive down Soi 6 all the girls were fat & horrible, bums the size of my ex wife's, and did she ever pack the pounds on after we married ????

Why would anyone on holiday in Thailand be so sad as to sit in his hotel and use the internet for a hook-up?  Part of the fun is going out drinking and deluding yourself that you've "pulled" in bar/gogo/disco.  The nightlife business is far from over, but may take another year or so to get back to pre-Covid levels.

There's a *slight* difference between this very wealthy Indian guy and the hordes negotiating four for the price of one deals on Walking Street!

That's the impression they like to give and the opinion customers like to have. In reality partying every night soon gets old and being pawned by drunks is not something any of them like. Most actually despise the customers and many have to be drunk or high to face going out of the bar with them.

But it works both ways cos not all of the bar girls are pretty but even the uglier ones get beautiful when you have sunk a few beers .

A friend in Pattaya tells me , most of the girls only want a quickie / short time and not interested in long time , your on the clock , so to speak . Plus only one act allowed .

Stood with a 'lively' girl I'd known for sometime, looking down on Pattaya one night......she gave every impression of being the original party girl.........she said.....you know, there is not one single girl down there who enjoys working in a bar.........

Sometimes a bar girl can find a diamond in the rough.  Never know one of these Indian guys might the CEO of a tech startup company in GOA?
