My Boyfriend The Sex Tourist

Its not but it shouldnt be illegal to sell sex if you want to ( emphasis on the want)
The laws need to be more enlightened in this country IMO to focus on removing the ability to enslave workers or coerce or force people into prostitution

legislating against it will just strengthen the gangmasters hold over women ( and i presume there are also men) who are forced to then sell themselves.

I found the ending with the 'Best Foreign Husbands' totally surreal though!! :eek: :D

I wonder also who is being most exploited, the Thai women who yearn for a better life, or the men who take them back home with them? :confused:

I thought the "Best Foreign Husbands" was rather depressing.Middle aged men (and they looked it ) with young Thai brides being applauded.

I have a couple of friends who are married to Thai women.(Not the above type of men).Unfortunately its true that Thai society is very traditional.Some Thai women find Western men treat women on more of an equal basis.

Thai women from the rural areas do go to Bangkok to get money from gullible lonely western men.But they dont have many other options.
 
Not sure if anyone's pointed this out as I'm about to read the whole thread now but the girls in the first programme only get paid $40 a day - and then only if they are with a client otherwise they get no money.
