Bangkok bust: CIB officers nab 18,000 imported sex toys, couple faces sticky situation

[Baht Simpson]

I don't know whether to be proud or ashamed  but I can honestly say I've never used a sex toy. It's just never appealed to me yet others swear by them. I'm probably alone in this.

Not aware of any statistics but I used to make my own growing up. 

Nothing new in the world.

It seems dildos are older than civilization, religion, and matrimony combined.

Those aren't dildos, they're phalluses intended to bestow good luck and good fertility.

We can always count on law enforcement to keep us safe and focus on those areas that ensure our well being.

You. Are only allowed to make them out of concrete or build them in rice fields or put them in a basket of money at the market.  That is allowed but not for use in the bedroom

So, that's how the Mayanmar vendors on the Sukhumvit road get their stuff from? Not a big deal really. Help lots of people earning their livelihood. I wonder who are the suppliers to the African people selling their stuff on Sukhumvit road.

Don't forget someone actually counted 18,000 knobs by hand ????

"Selling, offering or lending obscene products to people." 5 years jail.  So those toys I brought as gifts could have slammed me for 5 years?

I doubt many women use them. Why would they? Usually women use nothing or a vibrator not dildos

 

They must be sold to guys

Vibrators and dildos are sex toys and there are many different types

I love the way that Thais promote their illegal activities on social media and then are surprised when the BIB show up. Pimping, street races, sex toys....

Same reason porn is illegal. They want couples to have sex with each other not a video or toy.  They are considered anti-family.  Also remember Thailand is ultra conservative.

Expand  

I wonder what would happen if this country decided to really be the mral bastion of right and families.

 

Imagine how much money would be lost and how many area would become host towns.

 

Pataya would almost totally end up closed.

 

NANA would be all closed-up bars and shops.

 

Most importantly the unemployed numbers hey are so happy to announce would be in double digits.

The real reason has nothing to do with morality or the ethics of laws.  

 

The real reason is that this people were threatening the gang that already imports these items for sale in NANA, MBK, and JJ Market.  

 

Just take the soap-shaped penises for example, and see how many stores sell them openly.
