Guest Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 Hi PT127, >>>>>I never got anything close to the girl saying she was indeed sorry<<<<< Not my take at all. I have often had girl tell me "I velly bad", and regretting the path they have choosen. Although, it seems to be a path that they see as pre-ordained. Almost as though they had no say in the matter, which of course, they do. But I've often gotten the feeling of resignation (sp?) on their part. Which I've always thought of as a reason, in part, for their lack of ability to remove themselves from their situation. It will take the act of another (punter?), to change their life. It's just my observation, but I see an overwhelming lack of desire for the average prostitute to change their life, on their own. Again.....just my observations.....

Guest Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 >>>I never got anything close to the girl saying she was indeed sorry or felt victimised AS A WOMAN. As a person, yes, they can have regrets, but never as a woman.<<< in those classes people are not really concerned with that middle classy emancipation thing - man and women there are equally fucked by life. and they know it very well. problem is that there are not many options, and feeling sorry for themselves is not one of them. people here often look so soft, but behind that they are incredibly tough and strong, have to be to survive. that is one of the reasons why i actually do like mor lam, and some of the paeng look tung - the lyrics talk about all the problems they are facing, and their dreams.

pattaya127 Posted June 21, 2003 Report Share Posted June 21, 2003 Sorry to remind you but I wrote not "sorry as a woman (ie. being a woman)", but indeed "sorry as a person"(1). I am in complete agreement with you. My Gf is still mad for not being able to continue school, as she wanted to join the Army. From many girls i have stayed with, I have felt a lot of anger inside about frustrations in their lives. (1) i would compare it to a black guy from the hood who sees his station in life is due to the colour of his skin, therefore does not strive and may end up dealing drugs around the block. I do not see/hear that the girls think in those extra-personal terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
