Many young Thai girls are looking for a boyfriend. Especially those that don't have a dad or happy life. They see a handsome single teacher that can give them the love they lack. Look after them and do what they can to get him. Most teenage female students have boys pushing them and their peers they see a chance and go for it The first thing I got warned about and I was 50 to be careful. Three weeks in I am in my class doing work and had a young girl start giving ya neck massage as if it is normal. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted September 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) I have heard of guys getting into major trouble here, for being found with underage gals. As an American, the laws in the US apply to all US passport holders, worldwide. Often the Thai cop will demand 100,000 baht, if she is 17, or one million baht, if 16 or under. You do not have it? You are turned over. Many guys end up on planes with an assistant DA dispatched from DC, in handcuffs, facing federal statutory rape charges. Unless you have $4,000,000 to throw at a team of lawyers, you are looking at 10 years in a federal pen. And you will be on the sex offender list for the rest of your life. Your life is basically finished, over one bad decision. Many will dispute this. I have spoken to lawyers about it, and it is correct info. And the US government is over zealous about the underage thing. Not worth it. Always best to check if she looks really young. If she does not have ID, that is real trouble. Do not proceed. The laws concerning leaving the country to have sex with a minor are defined in 18 U.S.C. § 2423. The statute makes the following acts illegal: Traveling to engage in sexual conduct: If a person themselves leaves the state or country to have illicit sex with a person under 18 years of age, they are committing a sexual offense. A conviction carries with it a prison sentence of up to 30 years and/or a fine. Having illicit sex in a foreign country: If a U.S. citizen goes to another country to live temporarily or permanently and engages in criminal sexual conduct with a minor while there, they are committing an offense. If they are convicted, they could be fined and/or be imprisoned for up to 30 years. HOW IS ILLICIT SEXUAL CONDUCT DEFINED? According to 18 U.S.C. § 2423, illicit sexual conduct means: Engaging in a sex act with a person under 18 years of age, Engaging in a sex act in exchange for something of value with someone under 18 years of age, or Producing child pornography A sex act can include masturbation, sexual intercourse, or physical contact with a person’s genitals. https://www.cwsdefense.com/blog/2019/november/do-u-s-laws-prohibit-sex-with-a-minor-in-another/ Edited September 4, 2023 by spidermike007 4 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the picture he doesn't seems so old, so it could be a normal situation, although it is not good to have a relation with a student. But look at president Macron of France .. he married his teacher It is not as obvious in the article but, the girl is 16 so age of consent . but under 18 and he took her away from her family. Without their permission. So; the charge is as stated; "taking a minor who is over 15 years old but not exceeding 18 years old away from their parents, guardian, or caretaker without reasonable cause, willingly and intentionally." He ‘apparently’ took the girl to live with him, which is how he got caught in the act. They raided his house and found them in bed. And recorded it on video. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer, as I understand it, is that there was literally no crime, UNTIL, the parents of the girl filed a complaint with the police. Exactly. Was the girl taken from her parents, as the charge implies? Was anyone harmed in the relationship? It isn't a police matter, but might be a disciplinary case for the school to handle. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandolphGB Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 7 hours ago, Skipalongcassidy said: For those of you who cannot get a handle on Google... What is the Thailand Age of Consent? The Age of Consent in Thailand is 15 years old. The age of consent is the minimum age at which an individual is considered legally old enough to consent to participation in sexual activity. Individuals aged 14 or younger in Thailand are not legally able to consent to sexual activity, and such activity may result in prosecution for statutory rape or the equivalent local law. Thailand statutory rape law is violated when an individual has consensual sexual intercourse with a person under age 15. However, sex with a minor under age 18 is a compoundable offense, regardless of consent. Thailand does not have a close-in-age exemption. Close in age exemptions, commonly known as "Romeo and Juliet laws" in the United States, are put in place to prevent the prosecution of individuals who engage in consensual sexual activity when both participants are significantly close in age to each other, and one or both partners are below the age of consent. Because there is no close-in-age exemption in Thailand, it is possible for two individuals both under the age of 15 who willingly engage in intercourse to both be prosecuted for statutory rape, although this is rare. Similarly, no protections are reserved for sexual relations in which one participant is a 14 year old and the second is a 15 or 16 year old. Perhaps you need to look more deeply into laws before you Google and check the first result. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sikishrory Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I certainly don't condone adults having sex with any girl under 18. I think that's a good general rule to go by. However I've been here 11 years and am yet to see any clear information on what the actual age is. I've heard 15, 16 and 18. People are often also bound by the laws of there home country regardless. For example the Australian passport ships with a leaflet explaining you can't have sex with anyone under 16, regardless of the countries laws. Although it's common sense for most people, I do think Thailand could make it much clearer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeranam Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I worked with a teacher in the 90s who was given 25 years for sexual relations with a 15 year old boy. I was repulsed with that case but this case seems harsh to me, maybe due to the ages of the men, 60 and whatever this guys age is. Maybe as in my country we can get married at 16. Only 1 year difference, neither were paedophiles yet in jail they would be treated as such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure you made a few members nitnoi more nervous today I certainly hope so. There is never, ever any justification to get with a woman under 18. Or even under 20, just to be safe. Why take that kind of risk, and why run the risk of harming the girl psychologically? Plenty of women out there who are young enough, very sexy, and willing to please. I used to know a guy who was a very prominent lawyer in Los Angeles and he would go down to Cuba a couple of times a year and specifically seek out girls that were 13, 14, and 15 years old. He spoke fluent Spanish. He would befriend them, and then meet the parents, and promise them that he would support them for years to come, in exchange for letting him get with their daughter, who was of course a virgin. Many agreed, as they were desperate financially and the minute he got with the daughter he would completely walk away. He never had any intention of providing any support, it was just a pure scam. It was such a filthy, horrific theft of integrity, character, honor and pride for those girls and their families. It was a source of pride for him and he would brag about it. The minute I heard that story I never wanted to have anything to do with this guy. That is just a colonial Conquistador mentality, that is just really ugly. There's no justification for anyone ever behaving like that. He should be in prison. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article head line maybe wrong. Why he was arrested may not be for statutory rape YET.. The age of consent in Thailand is 15. HOWEVER, he is an authority as a teacher and the age of consent in that case is 18. ALSO! the age of consent is 18 in the USA and I have heard the USA may have some policy in place with many countries to allow the arrest of US citizens who travel for sex with under age women. Before the discussion ensues I think it would be prudent to figure out just what is going on. This article has some contradictory information. Not that it's particularly relevant, but the age of consent in the US is set by the states, on a state-by state basis. In some states, it's 16. Some states have laws relating to the difference in ages when one of the parties is under 18. Some don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should never lay your hands in any way on your students, no matter their age. I teach 12 to 15 year olds at an Islamic school and I cannot for the life of me imagine even touching the girls. I feel bad already if there's any skin-to-skin contact and try to avoid it. Even if I taught 18+ year olds, I'd stay far away. With a minor, it's even worse. At the very least, this guy should be deported and blacklisted. Fortunately this guys fate will not be determined by you and the other moral high ground posters on this thread. It will be determined by the girl, her parents, and to a lesser degree the police (their role will mostly entail receiving a cut of the money paid to the parents). The whole position of power rhetoric is entirely a hollow man argument. Why is your Thai partner with you? I can assure you it is not because you are so much more handsome than Thai men. It is because you are in a position of power relative to her because of your passport. 2 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
