If someone told you that they wanted to/have gone to this place you would be very suspicious of them. For me it’s Theiland and The Philippines. Nothing good happens there.

    I’ve never had a guy tell me that exactly, but I’ve definitely encountered people (drunk people? I feel like I’m remembering a drunk guy going on about it) who have mentioned regularly going to Thailand and who make me wonder.

    I’m not talking intimate, close confidants here.

      But like if you had a work friend tell you that they are going to Thailand for vacation would your first thought be sex tourism or just normal vacation?

        I wouldn’t jump straight to sex tourism if there’s no other red flags, no.

        I have family connections out that way, I am aware there’s lots of other great stuff around.

          That’s why I am arguing against the OPs statement that they would be suspicious of anyone who goes there because “nothing good happens there”
