glass tank girls

This is the part of the forum where we discuss Cambodia's nightlife! While most bars, nightclubs, pubs, beer gardens, and hostess bars are in Phnom Penh, we discuss the Cambodian nightlife across all of Cambodia, including Siem Reap, Kampot, and Sihanoukville. The main nightlife areas in Phnom Penh are on Street 136, Street 130, Street 110 and Street 51, but there are other party spots that aren't girlie bars where expats, tourists, and locals drink until the sun comes up. Feel free to post specials and promotions that relate to nighttime fun!

I’ve always found it rather curious, the perceptions focused around gender and sex.

If a girl likes to play around with more than one partner, or indulges in one night stands, the phrase slapper comes out. To be scorned.
Lads on a night out hook up, and they’re…lads! To be put on a pedestal, somewhat. But if they hook up with the aforementioned female, she’s a bit loose. If the female in question was much harder to seduce, it’s a conquest.

If a bloke could make money by being a gigolo, he’d quite probably be looked upon favourably by many others. A girl/woman does it; oldest profession.
How many women hanker after a man’s virginity? Mrs Robinson, aside. But a wedding gown is white, symbolically. Yet an unmarried woman in her mid twenties in some cultures is seen as something wrong, too.

Is the perception of ‘working girls’ linked to a rather male centric insecurity? If it doesn’t meet a male criteria of harder to get, then she deserves less respect?

Some of the foulest characters I’ve ever met in life have been what people might describe as ‘decent’ folk, following a set social values that are acceptable. Yet a woman who finds herself in a particular situation with few practical choices is perceived to be so much lower.
Is it men, or women who view sex as cheap? Street 136 (and many other places) has lots of girls waiting outside, for sure, but it’s mostly a drunken stampede of men that really drag it down.

As I say, just curious.

There used to be some bars in Thailand that had glass tanks about 3 metres high with naked women swimming in them. I never went in ,just saw them thru the open door while passing by.. I'm guessing it was glass, maybe some kind of plastic.

Plenty of bars in Pattaya an Bangkok up till mid 2000's and maybe later had girls taking bubble baths an showers naked
