^ Agree 100%.. when I was living in Korat, I witnessed many girls who certainly were not poor, with good educations, scamper off to Patters to make some easy money...
It seems the trend, completely accepted... almost the norm... just like having a sponsor/gik... it's becoming ingrained into Thai 'culture'...
Perhaps 20 years ago, that old stigma of the girls being mostly poor/option-less may have been true... now, nah.....
Korat.. the door to Isaan... nah... Korat, the door to Pattaya lol...
