Freelancers, GSM, Hostess Bars. Will escorts be Next

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Freelancers, GSM, Hostess Bars. Will escorts be Next

Post by phuketrichard »

With Hostess girls charging upward of $50100/night....

Am sure The casino already has a few for the rich but will they soon be available for the masses?
The escort industry in Bangkok is booming with new agencies opening all the time. Some punters swear by escorts, claiming they offer a better experience while others say they are mutton dressed as lamb. In an effort to learn more about escorts and find out if they really are different to the ladies who work the bars, I sat down with three Bangkok escorts from BangkokEscort.com, all of whom have already featured in this column as girl of the week and as such are ladies I know and have something of a rapport with. Amongst them is the lady some say is currently the most popular escort in Bangkok, Bonnie. We talked openly about what it's like working as an escort, how they view their customers and how they compare themselves with girls who work in chrome pole bars. Some of their responses surprised me.
So it's all about the money?

Bonnie: For me, no, it's not. Of course we would not do this for little or no money. For me, I am excited to meet new guys. Different guys have different mindsets and everyone has a different way of thinking. You learn so much from different people and this is a job in which I can meet a lot of people who are different to the people I met before. Together we can share experiences. Their experience, my experience, we talk a lot.

Priya: I have had customers buy me handbags and perfume...and a friend had a Swiss watch bought for her which was wow! So it's money and gifts too!

Linda: I had one guy who gave me a tip of 20,000 baht.

20,000? Where was he from?

Linda: India!

<Whoops of exclamation and surprise from Bonnie and Priya, clearly they have never had a 20,000 baht tip>

Linda: When I saw him, I thought he was too old, like so old he could not do anything. When he gave me that tip I was shocked. He gave it to me at the start before, you know, before anything. He was from India and they aren't always generous. He wanted to book me again but I had another booking so could not. I talked a lot with him.

LOL.

some of those girls end up marrying well above their natural station in life too!

the local boys would not have them on a bet.

the main difference between east and west is the degree of concealment and pretense.

the marketing wrapper.

Some of the Chinese speaking girls that were freelancing at the Manhattan club in Phnom Penh were getting $50/night back in the late '90's I knew two girls quite well that worked two or three times a week there and made around $600-700 per month. One girl I knew who worked at the old Club Blue regularly got $100/night off an Indian customer. That would be about 5 years ago.

It seems that someone had a stab at starting an escort business around one year ago:

"We are a Cambodia Escort Agency providing the very best companionship in Cambodia – Phnom Penh – Siem Reap. With new agencies starting every day we are proud to remain at the very top of our field. We supply a five star service to a five star clients.

We provide model quality escorts in Cambodia for gentlemen. We know every client has his own requirements. So, if you let us know exactly what you want we will send you exactly what you ask for or you can check our album to select a lady of your preference and make a booking.

Bonnie's English seems little too native imho. I think Stickman is making this shit up. Why would three escorts waste time getting interviewed for his webpages?

I'm sure Stickman has cleaned up the English. He claims to be fluent in Thai, so the "interview" was for sure conducted in Thai.

I doubt he's making it up as much as making it read so clean and crisp to the readers.

He has put the website up for sale as you certainly know, and is leaving Thailand. You always have to be careful reading his weekly column as he plays up to advertisers in a very blatant way. Take his favorite "bar owner", "Big Andy" of Club Blue as an example. Having seen said Andy here in Pattaya on several occasions I can assure he's nothing but a pimp in shining armor. Yet when reading Stickman one would get the impression it's a fancy club without prostitution.

As for this "escort" business model, again don't be fooled. All it takes is a phone and a camera and you are in "business" pimping and charging triple upwards. I also noticed the three ladies look like they are in there 30's which while okay for me, most "businessmen" are looking for younger girls. Bangkok is a very big city and has a lot of travelers passing through and therefore a demand for escort service. But bottom line again, for those new, it's just prostitution made out to be something else.

ps: Most men refuse to wear condoms contrary to what the "escorts" and "bar owners" on here might tell you. If they want the big money, bareback is the way it's going to be, and I mean finish inside her. No one pays like I say, triple upwards for the facade(makeup) of a model and uses a condom. Rubber dolls are much cheaper and in many cases, more fun, especially when it comes to these dinner dates.

Well said, I think?

They marry for the money, and it is certainly an improvement on "work rice" in the North East...

Locals like teenagers, once a girl reaches 20(or dare I say it, 18) they have no use for her prostitution wise....

Yes, the main difference is how deception is played out on the westerner who usually doesn't have a clue.

Many Business men use escorts for more than just SEX,
I have known a few
they want someone they can take to dinner, Perhaps a business dinner, show them around, carry on a conversation, have a good time.
sex maybe, but its more than that,
an hence reason many escorts are NOT in their early 20's

If you show up at a business dinner with a hooker, I seriously doubt the other businessmen/women will be impressed....

Carry on a conversation?......about what? landing on comets in outer space? The value of the Baht to the USD?

Sex maybe?.........they are in the prostitution business, is that really going to remain confusing and in doubt?

If you are staying at a four or five star hotel, you generally have your shit together as far as being shown around town, but I'll leave that up to you and the readers....to me it's sort of silly.
