Actually, only a sexually active 71 years old. But yes it triggered a mental picture of penetration, nothing degenerate about that.

I looked FOR their breasts 🤭

I would venue to guess most from Western European nations have been taught the saying, “when in Rome, do as the Romans do”. Can be more than a bit confusing here in Thailand … then again hypocrisy appears rampant in my home country. Not a bad idea to peruse cultural background notes before visiting a region.

How very mature! That´s exactly what a horny little virgin teen school boy would say.

According to a study, the sexiest women live in Brazil.

 

The second place is probably shared by Polish and Ukrainian women who are always ready to have sex with people they barely know.

 

Certainly, an easy catch for playboys.

Apologies for not reaching your highest of virtue signalling, cry baby standards before  posting.

What are you going to do about it?

"cultural laws", which aren't laws at all (but I know what you mean...). I think this is a case of simply people projecting their xenophobic, insecurities. They think their culture is superior and so they think that foreigners also think that their own culture is superior to Thai culture and thus become offended over nonsensical things.
I've seen Thai people sitting on lawns around Thai temples and there are commonly festivals at temples when people relax on the lawns, eating and drinking and OMG! They might even lay down while relaxing! They might even do it in the sun! Although usually in the shade... It isn't sunbathing, but what on earth is the difference. People are enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of the temple grounds, maybe even meditating, maybe while laying down. I didn't read of an issue being made of their clothes, but of their activity, which is not at all significantly different from that of Thais.
They do it, but foreigners cannot because only Thai people can behave in informal ways in areas that if held in a strict traditional view, could be considered inappropriate, and if a foreigner would do it, it won't be considered as only poor taste or just people behaving informally when maybe formal behavior may be preferred. Oh no! It's straight out offensive!
It's just another clear example of their projecting of xenophobia and insecurities.
Just for the heck of it, thought I'd include some shocking examples of relaxing on the temple lawns....
some, even while sitting directly in the sun!

The impression from reading Thai media, is that the police do a great job of solving murders and intercepting drugs....barely a day goes by that we don't have police 'pointing' in the press. 

I suspect the real situation is very different. I suspect many people are tortured into confessing as the poor guy whose mad wife was killed by youths including a son of a policeman. I have several examples of people who were coerced into selling drugs including yaba by police: 'sell drugs for us or you are going to prison'. I would love to see the real numbers of crimes solved.

Like you I'm a bit appalled at police spending their time with petty stuff leaving serious criminal stuff unsolved and traffic law enforcement  at zero as thousands die on the road.

Having said that, police are a bit of a soft target. The rampant corruption, caused in part, by a totally inadequate wage structure that needs supplementation by donations from motorists.

It's mainly greedy people who are corrupt, not the poor!

Very nice knockers on the woman to the left.

They are very young and, obviously, being so young they were totally ignorant of their transgressions.

I am sure they meant no harm.

If only they had done some reading, instead of sunbathing, before arriving!

  How would you describe people who habitually stare at Womans covered  breasts when they are in public ? , 

Normal?

[shunter]

Should have been dressed in Bavarian summer costume, dirndl dresses, or possibly lederhosen no problems then.

Chiang Mai Provincial Tourist Police tracked down two Polish women caught sunbathing on Sunday, January 14 at Chiang Man Temple in Chiang Mai province. The two foreigners apologised to locals for their inappropriate act

And will probably never return... how to shoot yourself in the foot Thailand.

Do you want to respect the culture of another country or do you want to dictate the rules in other people's homes? A certain type of clothing has never been allowed in temples, both for Thais and tourists. No discrimination, just respect.

The article doesn’t say anything about what these two women were wearing. It just says that they were sunning themselves. They may have been wearing shorts & a t-shirt, which seems like normal attire, when the weather is hot.

Damn...put my pocket money on them being Russian.

They weren't in a temple.

 

And they weren't in somebody else's home.

 

They weren't topless or naked.

 

They were two young girls sunning themselves on a grassed out area.

 

Not even worthy of three days in the news on ASEAN Now, but it managed it. Some people need to get out more often.

Not me! I looked at their belly buttons... 

[Scouse123]

Four officials, a photo opportunity and three days in ASEAN now news.

 

A monk masturbating on public transport managed one, and no photo op or officials.

 

Ha! That's right, it was foreigners!

A previous blurred out photo of them sunning themselves showed them covered in female areas, of concern to some.

 

No, they were not topless.

They can because there are a lot of choices to spend the day: security for all sort of shops for small money, checking licences and finding flaws, checking overstayers, checking wearing helmets, checking paid taxes, also. In total an interesting, varied profession, executed with passion🙏😂
