Marie. You're obviously as ignorant as most forigners. The fact is that 95% men visiting prostitutes are Thai.
If that's their "way of life", then fine. It's Thailand's internal problem - let them deal with it. Now to have foreigners, who can't get laid at home, come to Thailand to take advantage of Thai leniancy toward the sex trade, makes us westerners look like scum. You think it's o.k for a 40 year old western pervert to have sex with a 15 year old? Mind you, most prostitutes are over 18 but, this is the case more often then not! Think about it. Next time you open your yapper, make sure it's not crap that comes out.
