I have been with many of them when their cell-phones have rung and been told 'do not speak'!, whilst they have made hollow conversation with some poor c**t struck guy, usually from some European country. After the usual 'I miss you lots' . . . crap, they manage to always add 'when you send money'.

One such BG was using money sent to her, for payments on a new motorbike, when the intention was to relieve the necessity to go with men for money.

I'm sorry if I sound rather harsh, but the reality is, (in many cases, not all) that these girls have quite a reasonable income (by Thai standards).

Cheers

Hiya PDM3.
I know what your saying. I reckon everybody who has spent time with these ladies has listened to their phone conversations with their "no. 1 b/friend"??
and even been told by some girls about the falangs who are sending money etc. but there are lots of them who are struggling, especially during the low season and even more so if their not that pretty.
I still reckon that a minimum of 1000 baht is not too much to expect to pay.
Believe me, I don't throw my money about needlessly as I visit about 4 times a year and have to be a little careful. Even so, I wouldn't dream of giving less than the minimum 1000. In fact if I thought a girl was having a hard time of it I would give her more.
Call me an old softy if you like but I do tend to feel sorry for some of these girls.
