Thai Girl Naked: A Former Bangkok Bargirl Tells All - Paperback

by Noi Thawattana (Author)

The real truth about Thai girls

A Thai woman is more than a sex machine, a money extractor, or a ruthless scammer.

Noi Thawattana was a Bangkok prostitute, working in hostess lounges, massage parlors, and go-go bars. After marrying an American man and moving to the United States, she wrote Thai Girl Naked to expose the life of a Thai bargirl through her own voice and from her own eyes.

Thai Girl Naked is a rare look at the reality of Thailand's prostitution scene, and more generally at women in Thailand, without the beer goggles, cultural ignorance, and male bravado of tourists' memoirs.

Noi Thawattana knows the business and "the life," and also knows foreigners' misconceptions. As a former bargirl now studying journalism, Noi is uniquely qualified to tell a Thai woman's story, in a readable and entertaining form.
