Same old story every year, suppose the BIB have to look good at some point.

Pre-Christian era

In ancient Rome,

men would strip naked and use goat- or dog-skin whips to spank the backsides of young women in order to improve their fertility

Current 2013 era

In modern Bangkok,

a variety of facilities offer, as either a participant on either side or even only as an observer, a diverse list of possible activities, such as men would strip naked and use goat- or dog-skin whips to spank the backsides of young women in order to improve their fertility

Happy Valentine's Day.

<deleted> has Valentines day got to do with Thailand anyway? Surely Thai Rak Thai everyday.

How about the tourism board luring the impressionable to amazing thailand with its 'unspoilt beauty' only to turn up and get poisoned, knifed, robbed, abused, molested, mistreated, extorted, misled, misrepresented, lied to, stole from, ripped off, coughed on, over-charged, under-nourished, mismanaged & what not....all in 2 weeks...(or before leaving the airport if you're really fortunate)?

Sad that the human race has only managed to evolve for a small % of the world population.

This country looks like something out of the 50"s.

The N word is replaced with fallang ......

surly the police arn't involved with this...

hahaha....this is just too much. one of the horniest nations on the face of the earth, and they're worried about teenagers being LURED?! yeah, they're gonna LURE themselves into a short-time motel, with another teenager...just like their parents do with their respective lovers all the time! haha

Valentines Day is heaps bigger than in the west, 7yo kids at school have to give flowers to each other, like <deleted> is that ?

I think it is just like vehicles, they went from nearly non to everyone having one and the culture never learnt to drive, 2 speeds, full pedal and full brake, they are clueless when it comes to Valentines day, driven by the retail sector, if you don't bu a present, spent heaps on a restaurant that is twice as expensive that night and send flowers, then you don't love her and she is onto the next one.

I am not bitter and twisted, but had several TG leave me on Valentines as I was not into that crap. All it took was to find one I actually felt like I wanted to and I do all that and more happily now every week.

hey they are not gonna take away all the condom vending machines ,, or they never came back after last valentine ?

wher you find this quote ??

absolutely - it's good to know Thailand's finest are un-lureable, or is it non-lureable? Anyway, I'm sure everyone will be pleased to know these fine models of moral fortitude will be out there, making sure no luring goes on...................

How is luring defined? Are there different degrees of it like First Degree Luring, Intent To Lure or Occassioning Harm by Lure?

the police want to keep the fun to themselves

Maybe they should play peeping Tom in the places who pay them to see nothing, notably the brothels and leave the rest of the people alone.

Well let's hope no hanky panky finds it's way onto You Tube.

Got to keep those Thai standards up.

I hate it when i get lured into Sex at Valentines...

And me; but I try and bear it!

Inside my cranium.

The same announcement every year.

And they still haven't figured out that it also happens on the other 364 days too.

I think you will find if you went to check was that the article is merely meant to scare young people in abstaining in the fear that the police will "jap" them. As opposed to police actually taking any special notice etc. Most young people doing something they think they are not supposed to be doing have an unrealistic view that police are around every corner etc and this is likley merley meant to stimulate that fear.

The Valentine's 'Season'? A nice dinner and bunch of flowers on the day is usually sufficient. It's not a 1960''s four day love-in.

When I was living in the US, all the advertising suggested that you must be some sort of lame, inadequate, nerdy loser if you didn't have a date on Valentine's Day. I recall one of those lads websites suggesting that since Valentine's was primarily a day with all the extra benefits for the ladies (drinks specials, free passes at clubs, etc.,) they would counter with Man's Day one month later. The event was rather simply explained as, 'Beer, steak, a BJ and <deleted>!'

The same announcement every year.

With the regularity of a well-constructed bowel movement.

Without knowing the years those news items were published, but solely judging from the mental attitude they were written with, one would think that the biggest news item from the year prior to the last one was Alexander Graham Bell invents the telephone

Where in the hell do these people come from?.. are they some kind of alien life form? Sometimes I worry about the Thai intellect.. We're talking about Valentines Day.. a day in the US when husbands, boyfriends, even school children give each other mushy cards, flowers and candy..

Valentines Day was started by the greeting card companies, candy companies and flower industries to jump start sales in an otherwise bleak February.

It isn't really a Thai holiday. It caught on because of farangs giving their girlfriends some flowers and cards and probably some cash.

Now, the Thai govt. has the Police keeping their always watchful eyes out for some teenage kid with hormones running wild luring some teenage girls into having sex with them for same gifts. Jesus Christ on a crutch...

Yeah. Its a wonder poor, poor you are still even alive. Since Thailand is considered to be a relatively safe destination tourist boards elsewhere must be positively evil. As a matter of fact they should probably prohibit all tourist advertisement everywhere. Please do not think that I am saying that your post is ridiculous.

I hate it when i get lured into Sex at Valentines...

It is horrible...

Absolutely sure i've never seen the phrase : 'Luring Cases' before. I think i might go luring...i was out luring last night...done any good luring lately ? Strange word ;-)

Last time I visited a Thai entertainment venue, all the pubic parks had been completely mowed. Not a blade of grass to be seen!

Not even a well kept Brazilian.

Brazillian? dam_n, that sounds like a lot, how many is that exactly?

So the entire police force will now "be aware "................how comforting !!

...........makes a change........

...does it mean that those attempting to commit luring would then be referred to as lurers... good grief...!

Absolutely sure i've never seen the phrase : 'Luring Cases' before. I think i might go luring...i was out luring last night...done any good luring lately ? Strange word ;-)

Was also wondering about luring cases, is that a sort of a box or bag you keep luring in? whatever luring is.

I have a case I keep my fishing lures in hope the cops arent going to come and take that off me.

It depends what you do with the fish after you have lured them.

Give them something to do to break the boredom of sitting at traffic lights and screwing up the traffic.
