Wayward Women of the Second Category

[Huey]

This is from an english version of a newspaper in Thailand. I think the entire article is pretty funny :7 . Especially the last sentence; filled with innuendo, a puns and irony. Anyway, if you are as easily amused as I am, well at least tonight, give it a read. If not move on, there isn't much to see here .

Pattaya’s law enforcement officers are trying to get hookers and hustlers who are soliciting sexual favors and annoying holidaymakers removed from the city’s beach areas. Their latest effort netted 13 ‘lady-men’ referred to as women of the second category.

 

After receiving numerous complaints from tourists that a group was blatantly grabbing, groping and propositioning tourists who stroll along Pattaya Beach Road, Pol. Lt. Col. Krit Siriprasertchoke and a team of officers arrested 13 of these obnoxious hustlers on January 8.

 

After they were taken into custody, all confessed to the charges. In their defense they claimed they were forced into selling sex because they were unable to find legitimate jobs. They all admitted to approaching male tourists and hawking their favors for a minimum charge of 500 baht per night. Unmoved - officers charged them with prostitution, imposed a 100 baht fine for each before they were released. Just in case our foreign readers aren’t sure how stiff a penalty that is, at press time, 100 baht was equal to 2 US dollars and 33 cents.
