I don't see this as contradicting my characterization. A taboo practice need not be rare. Price may perfectly well move a practice out of the taboo category. Taboo is a social prejudice, a traditional belief -- it doesn't have to make sense.
It's one thing if they're chasing down those young girls and coercing them into the disconcerting behavior.
My statement was a generalization. I've found it discussed on groups with a country wide scope, e.g., thaivisa.com and the Yahoo groups LivingInThePhilippines3, Philippine_Living_Island_Paradise, or a city scope, like Cebu's livingincebuforums.com. Don't recall seeing in the groups for the two out of the mainstream towns I've lived in, Dumaguete and Hua Hin.
I don't understand why anyone in a relationship would care what a complete stranger who disproves of the relationship thinks about it.
So... how much are you willing to pay for the search?I have to say that I, too, am personally uncomfortable with the "bartering" nature of social/sexual relationships.
I'm a holdout (read: hopeless romantic), however, and believe that a relationship can be built on mutual love/respect/empathy.
Now if I could only find a cute, fit, intelligent woman in her late twenties with a father fetish
They shouldn't care, and probably don't. There might be issues with family and close friends though. But looking at it optimistically a girlfriend young enough to be your daughter would have lots in common with your actual daughter and might get on well with your son as well.
BTW, what is your dog in this race?
Happily divorced and casually dating someone 7 years younger, so that 50 ans 43. I'm watching my friends deal with marriages and sending kids to college, I couldn't deal with the hassle. I'm hanging with a group of friends ranging from college age to middle age.....so I get a range of perspectives and the young old dynamic is seldom successful.
