Apart from the elephants, scenic landmarks and famous tourist spots, Thailand runs a major sex business in the continent. Many male tourists, within the age group of 21-50, visit Thailand for this solitary reason. It might seem to be a little uncivilized for you, but that’s the way it is. Speaking of which, prostitution as such is prohibited in Thailand, however, it does not make much of a difference here. In Phuket, you can find such girls in any bar of Patong, which happens to be the capital of the sex racket of the island. For some, it may sound like heaven, while for others it might turn to be a hell on earth.
There are no crooked or indirect workings with the Patong bar girls here in Patong. To be precise, a person comes to a bar in Patong, finds a girl of his liking; he places an offer, and strikes the deal for a few hours or for an entire day, depending on the money he is ready to spend. Girls here are ready for a jiffy romp to overnight stays at the customer’s hotel. Lovely, isn’t it?
You will never find it difficult to find these bar girls in Phuket; technically, they are everywhere. You will find many at the beer bars of Soi Bangla. There are rows of beer bars in this place, with flocks of bar girls serving beer and drinks and striking conversations with customers. It is a game of confidence, as the girls talk to you in a very soft way and woe you with their gestures, trying to grab your attention at every chance possible.
However, beware of girls who would want you to buy them a drink, because these ‘lady drinks’ are typically overpriced. Many girls, who are actually hustlers, drive you into a game of Connect 4 to get the unavoidable drink at some point of the game.
Those girls who work as waiters at the bar can escort the customers only if he pays a differential amount to the bar to give the girl a night off. However, there is still the main transaction for the girl to be made, which may range between 1000 to 3000 Baht. If the situation demands, the fee may hike to 5000 Baht also, as nothing is fixed in such markets.
You may come across a lot of prostitutes at the discos of Patong too. Nevertheless, you must not approach every girl who seems to be partying out there. There are instances when a drunken tourist goes to a girl and panicked her by asking “how much?”
In Soi Bangla, you will find the so called ‘freelance’ prostitutes, whose numbers are also very profound. They are not bound to any bars and strike deals on their own.
