CTO Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 What next?Throwing puppies maybe... As some board members were more shocked by this than by learning that 60K+ people died for example. And elsewhere your asking what people would do for revenge on a bar girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torneyboy Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 The episode in which Rindala successfully seduced one of Uamdao's boyfriends before his wedding to Uamdao saw ratings go through the roof. Audiences were convulsed with anger as they rooted for Uamdao. Rinlada had committed an unforgivable sin. Thus millions are anxious to see how Rinlada will be punished this weekend for her past deeds. They lap this stuff up .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 So many take what happens in these soap operas to be an example for them on how to live their lives! I have always heard that the Thai culture is such that one controls their emotions...not on the soapy! The fight, shout, scratch, pull hair, kill, etc...then you read such accounts in the newspapers...go figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Years ago nudity and sex scenes were absolutely banned in Thai films - unless it was rape! Not surprisingly, Thai "dramas" would often have some disturbingly graphic and violent rape scenes. Looks like things haven't changed much, plus the producers of this show should be met some dark night in a car park by a gang of khatoeys and treated to a bit of their own fantasies!

bust Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 I was corrupted in my childhood by Number 96 and The Box. Ok we have the western take on this but what is the Thai take... I mean we are talking about a country who find it acceptable in some cases to send their daughters into prostitution to improve their lifestyle.

Flashermac Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 My Mrs is a northern gal. As a cute young thing, when people would find out she was from the north they'd sometimes ask, "Are you from Dawk Kham Dtai?" She'd get quite irritated, since that village was famous for having beautiful women ... and the highest number of its daughters working in the go-go bars and massage parlours! I've been through that village. You can tell which families have daughters in "the trade", since they have the nicest houses, cars and pickup trucks, satellite TV etc. I remember seeing young women working in the fields and almost completely covered in Taliban style. Only their eyes were visible. I asked what that was all about. Seems it's too keep them white and lovely, so they can become a rich man's mia noi or fetch a higher price on the meat market. Women do seem to be viewed by a lot of folks in LOS as a comodity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
