Canadian Artist Mandy Stobo Forced into Cambodian Sex Trade

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

So where do you think the best place is for sex with Canadians?

It's amazing that some of the people here have problems with wrapping their heads around this.

You guys aren't children, so if you do maybe just a tiny bit of thinking, maybe you can figure it out.

Well I've been thinking about it all evening. I've made multiple Google queries and I still can't find a better locale than Canada. Statistically it's so far ahead of even the second place getter (the United States) for places likely to encounter a Canadian for sex.

Jesus Christ! Digg3r, are you actually kidding me right now? I hope you're not actually this dull. These men didn't go to Cambodia to have sex with a Canadian. They went to abuse and have sex with women. The nationality of the woman in question would've been not so important. Plenty of men go to Cambodia and other SEA countries to get laid there because they don't stand a chance with European/American women, so of course they would be delighted if they saw that a white Canadian woman would be "on offer" for them to abuse. Use your brain, I implore you.

Now, I am not saying that this story is absolutely true and that you can't raise any doubts about it. I didn't research this story myself and all that I go on thus far, is what was written on this website. This might have happened and it might not have. I don't know. But the point you made here is just incredibly poorly thought through. You can criticize all day, but put some effort into it, would you?

I was taken off the streets and put in a brothel. I won’t go into details here...
Seems a pretty important detail of the story to omit from the narrative. It's a bit like saying "I was walking down the street one day and, long story short, some months later I awoke naked in a garbage dump with all my internal organs removed".

That's also more likely to occur in Canada.

1. I was here then. Such places didn't exist. Sophies was as depraved as things ever got.

2. From a practical perspective, her claims of being chained to a bed and clients using tools like "knives and crowbars to do with as they please" are just dumb. Think about it. After several weeks (or one week, depending on which version you read, we'll get back to that in a mo) of being chained to a bed and beaten with crowbars and knives, she just escaped and went off to Vietnam? No mention of embassies or prolonged medical treatment or anything? How many women would such a brothel need to get through, constantly replacing them as they get cut and beaten?

3. As mentioned, I did a quick google of "Mandy Stobo Cambodia", it came up with two versions of the story, one lasting a week, the other lasting several weeks.

4. Part of her description is almost identical to the movie Hostel. :roll:

5. Has anyone here ever heard even the faintest of rumors about a place like this existing? I haven't.

6. Has any background research been done by the authors of any of these articles to verify her story? If so, they didn't cite any of it.

I call bull.

These are better points to bring up. I still don't agree, but I'm fine with those points. It was just that your first point was dumb.
I could address some of your new points, but I can't be fucked right now. I'm not sober enough for this right now.

I can't wait for my ex to read this article. Then her next affidavit in family court will either have me as a Pimp at said brothel or a regular customer.
