Why do so many Thai prostitutes marry their customers?
I think it's clear why the women do it. They're lazy, they want an easy life, they don't want to be forced to continue to sleep with a variety of men that they don't wanna be with, and they're looking for a larger some of money than they get from working on a daily basis. So it seems like a small sacrifice to be around an older man that you don't care for in exchange for forgetting everything else out of life that you ever wanted. To me the bigger question is why do the men go for it? Why did the men choose these drunk, angry, loud, combative types who have lots of tattoos, no education, that believe in ghosts and superstition, and who will usually give you the worst advice on how to handle any situation in Thailand because they are from a lower socioeconomic class and simply don't have any experience or know any better. -

Trump - just what does he have to do for his supporters to question their allegiance?
I know what I see and hear. I know that he's been convicted of a felony offence and has other cases pending. I watched the debate on TV where he said that Haitian refugees were eating cats and dogs. I know that he incited the violence on 6 January 2021 and I watched the results of his actions on TV. I know that he has stated several times that Climate Change is a hoax and that he cancelled America's agreement to the Paris Accord. I am aware that he introduced a policy that separated the children of illegal migrants from their families. I know that he lied about the value of some real estate in order to facilitate a larger loan. I heard him state on TV that the deaths from Covid would never reach 100,000 - they are currently running at over 1.2 million.............................. I could go on, there are probably enough lies, false statements and offences etc. to fill a book. You think it matters that I'm not an American? I am fully aware that some people who voted for Trump that don't actually like him and I've heard the reasons they give. Nevertheless, I could not bring myself to vote for and reason for a complete mad man like Trump and I have major problems understanding those who could. Trump cares about one thing and one thing only - Trump! His entire agenda is populist because he knows a large percentage of the US population will feed off it. A large percentage of the US population is then, uneducated in term of politics. That same sector of the population also seem to care more about their pockets than anything else. That sector can probably be framed by the views I heard during a televised public debate on ......is it Medicare - the one known as Obamacare? What these attendees were basically saying is 'why should we pay for poor people to receive medical treatment?' Their views on the subject were quite strong and although they didn't literally say it - the implication was that people who couldn't afford medical treatment should just be left to die or live with their afflications. To someone who was born and has lived his entire life under the British welfare/NHS system - and who has received life saving treatment for cancer that cost far more then I could ever afford - hearing that debate was shocking. Until that point, I hadn't paid much attention to the American persona athough their gung ho attitudes have been well known throughout the world for many years. Moving forward to the Trump era, I've learned even more about US citizens and the recent election results cemented my feelings. I have friends from the USA - some of whom feel they have to apologise for Trump so I know its not the entire population. So let's not hide under rocks - I'll tell you what I really think - I think that a large proportion - possibly as much as 50% in light of the election results, of the US population are Selfish, increasingly Right Wing Lunatics that care only for today and the dollar in their pocket. They have no cares for the planet or what they will leave behind for their children and grandchildren. They don't seem to care about those who are less well off in their own country (even though its those people who labour for large corporations) as long as they can achieve the great American Dream. Trumps policies may help those people in the short term but lets's see what long term damage they do. Isolationist policies have never worked - anywhere. Thankfully he only has 4 years so hopefully much of te damage he causes can be repaired. P.S. The madness continues - just look at the people he's installing in his forthcoming government. I'm guessing many will be questioning their voting already. -
