Pillowtalk said:This is commonly reported. (surprising that lenny hasn't seen it since he too is one of those 'old' guys lol) These things are described by westerners, outsiders, like yourself, and also by local ex-pats and local independent escorts.
In sex venues in Bangkok's lower sukhumvit i've never seen a single underage worker, not even amongst non sex workers, like waitresses. I've been to many of the most famous places like Annies MP, Thermae coffee shop, Beergarden bar/restaurant, Rainbow 4 gogo in NEP, Soi Cowboy, as well as lessser known SP businesses around there.
If a guy wants to avoid seeing under 18 year old prostitutes, maybe stick to those places, although i'm sure that a tourist venturing elsewhere is extremely unlikely to encounter anything like what emmanuelle described, especially a place with such girls who have sex with customers. He might suspect or see the occasional mid teenage worker or two in some of the businesses in NEP or Soi Cowboy, as has been claimed in some forum reports, but "chock full" of them? Certainly not.
I'd think that if a place poster emmanuelle described really existed where sex was also commonly occuring between the customers & such allegedly obviously underage illegal working girls, it probably wouldn't be long before someone informed the authorities, police, NGOs, news reporters, etc. Is that what emmanuele did?
Chock full of underage girls? Every single one of them with old & 300+ lb guys? C'mon ; Where are these "commonly reported" stories you speak of?
Travellers to Bangkok don't have to worry about being bombarded with illegal young girls constantly in their face saying "go with you". Odds are remote you'll even see one. Like i said, one time in 30 months & even that may have been a scam w/o ever having the intention of giving up sex.
I think you might have difficulty even listing the websites of a handful of these in Bangkok.Pillowtalk said:All I am saying is there is an easy way to have the mooncake and eat it to: seek out and visit independent escorts who are not being forced to work, or forced to have a quota, or have to work under unpleasant and unsanitary conditions.
Although, depending on the definition of your terms, what you decribe could include most streetwalkers, and many gogo, MP, and bargirls in Bangkok. Remove the quota criterion (obviously no business wants to be forced to pay workers who don't bring them any return), which is like a commission sales job, so has no real negative stigma, and your statement could apply to almost every sex worker in Thailand catering to foreigners.
You'll notice in the OP's original post in this thread, paying less for sex is not the main reason he travels to Asia, since sex itself isn't even the main reason he goes there. As stated, it's just the cherry on the top.Pillowtalk said:You'll still pay less than here, which seems to be the main thing (altho no one seems to want to admit just getting and staying in another country is going to cost up to $2000 for a week lol, not including paid date time.)
Though if one travels to developing countries and stays there long enough, or never leaves, the savings relative to Western SP prices could easily be huge, even in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, even after factoring in airfare and hotel costs. But even a mere one week trip can result in the savings from cheaper SP's covering the costs of travel when you factor in savings of, oh, say $200 an hour. Take a Thai SP overnight or all day for $100 & you might have covered travel costs in only a day or two.
This could apply to businessmen as well as tourists & expats, whether or not the primary reason for travel to a foreign land was sex. If the former, then the expat is promoted to the status of sexpat, with the goal being sexercise and secstasy.
