[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2822660]I think there is a misunderstanding along the line. When you see these types of commentaries from someone that lives in or frequents a place, it is NEVER accompanied by you are messing it up for me (at least that I have ever seen). It is more trying to hip visitors to the game.
If I told you to go on the airline's website at 2 am and you will more than likely find your ticket price cheaper, would that be spurious and condescending? Would you insist you should be paying more because the plane you are flying on cost the airline millions of dollars so it can not be compared to a taxi ride because the taxi only cost thousands?
Expats have an ingrained way of doing things and it is usually not dependent on what a short time visitor does or does not do. For instance a buddy of mine gives a few chicks a salary of 3000 or 4000 baht monthly and they come stay over whenever he wants. You going to a gogo to buy 10 lady drinks or ring the bell is doing nothing to affect his routine. I have more free chicks around this place than I have time for. The last thing I am worried about is somebody coming in to town and their actions causing me not to be able to get paid chicks or my pockets to be emptier because of it.[/QUOTE]Sorry Mr. E, not sure if this is what's happening here but if you are taking my observations personally, they are not intended to be and yes totally with you where advice is given that helps newcomers navigate unknown waters. I was in the middle east recently and checked the forum for Abu Dhabi and Jordan. Actually, didn't get laid in either spot but that's another story. To simplify it, yes by all means posts on where it's happening and where value is to be had can be extremely helpful.
That said without pointing the finger I imagine you can agree that there are some members who do in fact believe that paying over the so-called going rate whatever that might be will result in price increases for them and that uneducated girls from the countryside are being more than compensated when a punter gives them 1000 baht, sometimes less, for a session. To the first argument there is no evidence to back it up and on the second argument all I would say it's a tough life for most of the girls. Yes, some of them may be uneducated country girls but they all deserve respect and fair compensation for servicing our sexual needs. Comparing what they should be paid to minimum wage rates, well I just don't get it, makes no sense but that's just me.
To finish, if selling sex is seen by some as a low life way to make a living what does that say about those of us that use their services.
