webfact Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Pattaya police arrest gay dancer after mounting a ring ruse Picture: 77Jowo PATTAYA: -- Pattaya police had a result yesterday when they tricked a man into custody who worked as a gay dancer at the resort. Chaicharn (Ta) Poo-sin, 25, had been identified as the thief after a theft from the Bua Khao gold shop in central Pattaya earlier last month, reported 77Jowo. CCTV showed him pretending to be interested in a 10,000 baht (half baht weight) gold ring. While staff were distracted he coolly walked out. A warrant was issued for his arrest and police managed to track him down to his hometown in Nakorn Sawan but he managed to get away. So police changed tack. Knowing that Chaicharn realized they were on his tail they pretended to be employees of the gold shop and called him to say that the shop would accept compensation and would not press charges. Chaicharn, worried about arrest, fell for the ruse and went back to the shop where after he handed over the money officers posing as staff in the shop arrested him. Chaicharn said that he was a dancer in a gay bar on Beach Road. He said he needed the money to pay a debt to a drug dealer and have a good time at Songkran. Police found out that he not only has two arrests for drugs but he was also wanted on a rape and molestation charge in Nakorn Sawan. He was detained.

Emster23 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Does it make any difference to the content of the story that he happens to be gay? I don't think so. Until Thaivisa lists criminals in same manner "heterosexual man steals car", I suggest they leave off sexual orientation unless it is related to the crime.

In many cases, I would totally agree with you. In Thai media, they do that kind of thing all the time, regardless of any relevancy. In this particular case, I would suggest that his occupation as a dancer in a gay bar is relevant just as listing any other occupation of an accused person. That said, the phrase used was "gay dancer" rather than dancer in a gay bar. Do they really know whether the man actually identifies as gay? Many workers in such environments do not. So on top of the phrasing revealing irrelevant info if true, we don't really know if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toofarnorth Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It must be said ( Oh must it ) the headline was what made me take a look. Mounting a gay ring , a ring ruse , gay misuse of rising ruse , all in there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you need to put his gender into the story? Does it make a difference as to whether he is male of female? "Heterosexual human steals car*, would be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he was actually gay himselfI would guess female as male rape victims rarely report. Like I said before working in a gay bar often does not mean the worker is gay himself. Open wallet minded perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me the "journalists" are crying for facts to mention--so much so that non-facts are often stated when no significant facts exist. I think if it were a homosexual man who stole a car; it would be so stated in the news. If it were a one-legged man who stole the car, that too would be in the news. If it were a 98 year old grandma . . . . well, do you get the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepattaya1961 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 So, dancing in a gay bar makes you gay.......? Approx. 75% of the "gay" working in gay bars aren't gay at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although some may refer to a car as a he or a she; I don't see many who refer to the sexual orientation of a car. Ones who do may indeed mention it. However, the make, model, year, or color of a car may be a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
