I didn't say anything about you.
Well that was the implication.
I was just pointing out how much fun it is to sit on your ass at a computer and spout off about things you have no personal experience The women I was referring to who worked in the sex trade is a girlfriend. She is Russian, has earned a MBA, and knows a helluva lot more about the supply side of the sex/slave trade than you. with that you read about somewhere on the internet before, or talked to your friend in college about a few times. My friend who did her thesis on the international sex business is 45 like me and has dealt with this kinda shit first hand. She is my neighbor. That's can be a blast. It isn't and then, you can use those things to make you feel better about yourself, which is even better. I mean, sure you might spend more on a single steak dinner than a Thai family spends to feed itself for a month, you might walk around with an enormous sense of entitlement like everyone else who lives in a first world country, you might talk about those poor people in poverty stricken countries while not actually doing anything about it I live in a third world country and I own a business which has created 52 relatively high paid (roughly double the going rate here), highly skilled jobs and have trained 35 others who have gone on to other places of employment. Those other 6 (soon to be 9) businesses have established themselves in our area following our success and we are creating an export industry here where there was none before. and spending money on things like high-speed internet connections or clothes made in Malaysian sweat shops, you might regularly funnel money to big corporations th at have a vested interest in keeping the economies of third world countries down, you might ignore the disproportionate impact you have on the environment because of the car you drive (it ain't a Viper it's a Focus) or the trips you take or the fact that you eat meat..... but at least you're not one of THOSE people. You know... the ones who do the bad things you read about on the internet. You mean the fat euro trash I saw in Phuket and Chiang Mai? The so-called MEN, strutting around with the 14 year old Thai girls with dead eyes? The things that you don't like to do so instead of seeking to justify them, you condemn others for them so the things you do like to do seem nicer by comparison. Assumption- But your right it does feel good to actually do something nice.
I wasn't saying that's what you do. But it is fun and it is cheap. If that's the sort of thing you enjoy, then more power to you.
