Popular Post bkk6060 Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 They can list the reasons, but many of us know the truth. 10's of millions of males single or in bad marriages want to come here. Mostly sick of the woman in their countries with bad attitudes, fat, and weird hangups. Why not; Booze, good food, good prices and plenty of sex here. Take out a few of the negatives and it is male nirvana. 5 4 2 5 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mfd101 Posted February 2 Popular Post Share Posted February 2 (edited) And the wunnerful Sanctuary of Truth even gets a mention. Thai baroque gone mad. Â I visited it in 2011 when it was fairly new. Can't believe it could have become more truthful since then.

This is an island off the coast of Pattaya called Koh Larn. Packed with tourists in high season, but relatively clean sea compared to Pattaya beaches. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
