Altho a # of BMs might share your sentiment, and act accordingly, I think that in your case the answer must be viewed in the context that you married and take the wife and kids with you. Therefore, no one is going to be making the assumption that you are banging BGs or even going to ladybars. They would assume that you are there for the typical family holiday, which for many people with families is not a whole lot different than a holiday in Spain(for example), or other places, except for the obvious differences(food, temples, elephants, little brown people with slanted eyes, etc.).
For a single guy, I think that this is an important question! It really can have some effect on a guy's life, what he tells people in response to their questions!

Today you get cheap chartertrips to Thailand in al Europe countries
In Scandinavia Thailand is the most visited country today,and its a place everybody visit one or more times,alone or with friends.
I think maybee people was thinking like that for ten years ago.
If you go through Bangla Saturday night in high seasoon its not so big diffrence from Spain

Well.. Are you stupid and tell your friends and family you go there to fukc girls and LB`s, then you deserve all the shit you get..
Its noones business what i do in Thailand, and couldnt care less what people think... I usually ask people that leave smart remarks where in Thailand they have been, and most of the times they never been there... Have made a fool out of several idiots that "knows" how it is in Thailand...

i agree with you.itīs a different part going with family or going alone.
the best way to handle is like peterhol.don`t care about.
as i told them,that i will go to los,the first reaction was:
aha now you want become a s!x tourist.
and i have never been there before.

i donīt think so.people thinks today also.
i remember a few days after tsunami i saw a report in german television about patong.and they told,that s!x tourismus works again.
and if you see anything in television about los,this is everytime a theme.
so it`s interresting how you guys handle this

You'd be surprised what some people assume Jaybee,married or not.
My answer is valid as it would be the same whatever my marital status

In answer to your question, no I am not stupid, and no I do not tell this to my family, friends, etc. But the question being asked is "What do you tell family, friends, etc.?"

Here again, I think you can excuse yourself from answering this question. Since you are not single, and have a TGF, then it would be obvious that your GF goes to LOS to see her family and you go along with her!

Yes, I might be surprised, but then again there are always people with their minds in the gutter!
Your answer is a perfectly valid answer for a married guy. And I don't doubt that it would be the same if you were single!
I suspect the thread poster(Domron) would like to hear some answers from single guys, as well, since he is a single guy, IINM. I think that is what he is looking for when he posed the question.

if you go to carribean sea or southamerica this is not so a question.
of course,there are also kind this of work,but itīs not so famous like los.

I don't think that there is any getting away from it; there will always be a certain stigma attached to a single guy who visits Thailand alone. The question really is how you handle it and do you care.
If you are in a corporate environment over here, particularly with women in positions of influence, then a reputation as a *****monger might do you some harm.
I've been in a position where nobody could do me any damage work-wise for a long while now, and personally I really don't care what people think. My friends know me and most are envious, the people who don't know me but make assumptions and feel qualified to have an opinion are fairly irrelevant.
I have a full-time Thai partner now (my ex-wife; long story) and believe me people still make assumptions and still feel qualified to comment.
If you do anything in life which is a break from the norm you are marking yourself out and people will, for whatever reason, feel it perfectly reasonable to point at you and talk about you. How you deal with it is up to you, but you can't possibly punch them all

Bloke and his wife from my town go to Phuket every year for past 9 yeras. Rumours in the pubs etc. are that he sh@gs ladyboys when his wife is not looking.
Only he and his wife go there, so these stories are obviously invented by sad b@stards who probably never go anywhere on holiday.
I don't tell anyone what I do on holiday, but I'm still getting the p1ss take in the canteen at work after my last trip 3 months ago. One day they will catch me on a bad day and they will get a right fecking gobfull of home truths

What do I say? OK, here is a typical example:
Ran into a lady on the corner in Fairfax yesterday. She says, "Oh, you're back from Thailand. I was there a few months ago for two weeks." Her husband is the drummer for a famous band, so they were flown in, put up in a $150/night hotel, and given the deluxe treatment. We talked about the beach, shopping, how congested Chaweng is, the friendly waitresses, and getting massages. She asked if I had stayed in Chaweng, where they stayed. Then the conversation turned to nightlife. I said I'd stayed in Lamai, and only went to Chaweng to party at the clubs there. I left that open for her to interpret.
Then she said LOS is nice, except for the "dark underbelly" there in the "seedy backstreets." She squinted up her eyes, and made a weird expression, when she said that in a suggestive voice. There was some discussion about where I went to party, to see if we had been to the same places, but she didn't seem to be familiar with the Green Mango, which incidentally was 90% farangs when I was there, with tons of farang girls there. She then told me that they went to an outdoors disco, and while they were there some guy started f*cking a girl right in the middle of the disco, and no one seemed to care, except for a few people who cheered them on.  That's just great for all of her friends(and mine) who are going to hear that story.  I just said, "Gee, in 5 trips, I've never seem anything like that"(which is true)!
I just kept smiling and being upbeat the whole time I talked to her, and she never asked who I was partying with, or whether I was with a BG(I wasn't). Then a friend of hers walked up and joined the conversation, and Joan said, "JB is just back from Thailand!" Pretty soon the conversation turned to the price of office space in town, and that was that!
So, bascially, I try to be honest, but I don't offer information about BGs unless I am directly asked and that rarely happens. Last Monday I was at a party with 10 women and two guys, including me. I talked to all the gals, and told them I was just back from LOS and Cambodia. No questions about BGs. I didn't offer that info! It seems like most people's minds are not in the gutter, and, if they are, they keep it to themselves(my brother-in-law being the exception).
