[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Male who has been to Thailand before, alone (well, without family.. met some friends there).

You people act like Thailand's GDP is 90% from the sex trade, and that's all there is. That's simply not the case. It's a crazy city (in a good way), with great food, pleasant weather, cheap shopping, and friendly people. I never took part in the sex trade, and it wasn't even that outward nor offered to me. I did to out to bars and nightclubs, but those were all "normal" places I guess. I guess there are certain streets and parts of town where this is on offer, but it's easy to just not end up there.

Think about it -- so many families and couples go to Thailand for vacation, especially Europeans. The Thais are very enterprising, and have lots for those people to do, and none of that involves the sex trade. Surely a male could also partake in those activities as well.[/quote]

Thailand is not a city  :roll:

I lived in Thailand for eight years.  It's a beautiful country with lots to do-night clubs and sex are not the only reason people go there.  That said, I have seen the seedy side of Bangkok and Chiang Mai and foreign (particularly white, western) men traveling solo are definitely a target.  Not saying your DH is going there for sex tourism, but I would be highly suspicious if I were you.  It's very far away for a married man with kids to be traveling just for fun.  Why aren't you going with him?  If my husband was planning a trip to Thailand I'd be pissed if he didn't take me![/quote]
