Skin Trade

Just finished reading a book "Travels in the Skin Trade-Tourism and the Sex Industry." It's about bg/farang relationships, but also goes more in depth into the economic and cultural side of Thailand and the Bangkok bar scene in 1996
Anybody read it?

They posed a question at the end of the book that made me wonder "hmm.. what would the boys on the forum say?"

Here goes--Would Westerners still spend a sizeable portion of their time and income to travel halfway around the world to Thailand for a holiday, if the girls in the bars were as indifferent, as educated, and as expensive as those in the West (i.e.- your home country)?

From reading bm posts in the past, you all seem like an intelligent bunch, so the answers should be interesting.
