80% BG have Boy Friend or Husband

pattaya news from here
http://www.pattaya-at-night.com/news/200307/index.html

About 80% of all ladies working in bars are living with a husband or a boyfriend
(in Thai language: FAN). A FAN is "more" than a PUEAN. A PUEAN can be
girlfriend or even a farang. Many of these FANs don't work regulary - they live
with the money the girl gets.



80% is terrible high

Think twice b4 you fall in love with BG !!!

If the girl say this is my brother, probably he was her boy friend or husband.

Statics like this are questionable at best..

My rough guesses knowing a lot of BG's at a personal / friend level (no need to lie to me) would put BG's at about 30 - 50% max..

I would also say that aGoGo girls are more likely to have a Thai fella in the background due to having a higher stress level associated with the job, less emotional / long term contact with the customer and (possibly most import) more disposable income to drop on thier Thai guy..

I know many many TG's who categorically rule out ANY Thai man as a possible boyfriend, mostly due to percieving us as being more likely to care for and not cheat on them (not stating thats true but their perception of true).

Hi all!
Think you are right there Tintin!
Even if many bargirls are still officially married to thai men, most of them don't live together anymore or have any contact, in other words they are separated! Personally I think the figures are too high! I know some GoGo-girls live with their thai husbands, but most beerbar girls I think are separated and live with other bargirls! My guess would be no more than 10% of them live with thai men!

I would also guess 10-15% to be a more realistic. Some bars also dont allow their girls to have thai men to avoid problems.

In my experience in the past, girls who dont like LT and only go for ST likely have a thai boyfriend.

80% may be true for girls who had kids/thai husband in the past.

A BG would not very likely introduce a punter to their boyfriend or husband.

This is because the BG bring their customer to her bf/husband working karaoke restaurant and cheat them with a large bill later, it is a bit common scam in pattaya which i read from some website.

This Mangda thing is prevalent, many of the Go Go's have the girls working with the boyfriend/husbands working behind the bar, as DJ's or elsewhere in the establishment. Id say around 50% - 60% is a good figure, 80% seems a tad high. If a BG relationship gets to heavy sometimes these partners will appear and get very pissed off. Seen it countless times ,and been in the middle a couple of times. Normally the girl denies that there is anything with the guy, but it's definitely out there

True but goes to show that you can never trust a BG and if anyone does they deserve everything they get
