What's wrong with Thailand?
Just because it isn't the USA?
Come on! There are places in this world that are as good as or better.. .yes... BETTER in certain ways than the land of milk and honey.
You know, that's what I've always hated.. stereotyping. |

Why on earth would you say its stupid? Why is it ok for men to go places on their own? Why would you question a woman doing the same? Crazy! I have done a fair amount of travelling without any man holding my hand thank you! |

No more stupid than men who go there alone. |

Traveling alone is dangerous for both men and women, they just get into different types of bad situations. Look at that guy in India recently that got lost and villagers killed him because he scared a lady by knocking on her door late at night.
If you do travel alone, make sure people know where you are supposed to be every day and if you change plans then make sure people are aware.
The rule of thumb I use is to look at the type of people on the streets. If there are other single women or women with small children, then it is more likely to be safe. |

I'd MUCH rather my wife walk around by herself in Krungthep Thailand than San Jose CA in the US. Thailand is a beautiful place and yeah there is some petty crime, but FAR safer walking around in Thailand than it is in most places in the US. |

Why shouldn't a woman go to Thailand-or any other country,for that matter-on her own? Fear of crimes committed against her? Well then-she'd never step outside her front door-crimes happen everywhere. |

Hmmmm....
Girls like to travel to gain more culture, to learn about different customs, to be more educated.
I don't see anything wrong about that.
On the other hand, sometimes people don't want to travel to the US because wackos walk into schools and kill people all the time,
Snipers attack passers-by in malls or shopping centers
Could go on, but I think you get the picture.... overgeneralizing |

a woman should be able to go wherever she likes on her own without fear.
I guess the next question will be 'why do girls wear sexy clothes?'!!! |

No its people like you who are stupid. No everybody who has the chance to travel is able to find a companion who can take a lot of time off work. Quite frankly I prefer to travel on my own so if I see idiots like you I can make a wide berth. |

Hello,
(ANS) Frankly I find this a weird question, why? shouldnt women or young girls travel as much as young men!!. Isn't what your suggesting abit sexist and out of date in this day & age?
Just because someone happens to be female doesnt mean they dont have a sense of adventure, doesnt mean they dont want to see other places or countries, other cultures.
The life experience that can be gained from travel is without doubt worth much more than many university degree courses or educational formal bits of paper.
I for one fully endorse any woman who wants to travel, I think it shows a degree of courage, indepenance. Isnt it the fact that woman can and do travel alone that many men dont like frankly.
Stop treating woman as if they werent all incapable of independant travel, & advanture, & thinking for themselves. Good luck too them and more power to them too!

Are you stupid or what? I've travelled through Asia alone and lived in Cambodia for years just me and my young son. Thailand is a great place to travel and generally very safe for females alone so long as they have a bit of common sense. It's really the single men who need to be careful as they have a bad habit of getting really badly screwed by some of the beautiful hookers they meet... It tends to be extremely damaging to their bank balance and often their psychological well being too. |

It's not stupid and I don't see anything wrong with traveling alone in Thailand. They do travel, learn the culture, experience new things and enjoy thier life. Is this called stupid?
And if man can travel in Thailand alone without being called stupid, girls can do the same!!
PS: I like traveling a lot lot more than stay home playing with my cat, baking cokkies and surfing internet. I enjoy travelling alone too. I'm happy with my life and It's OK for me if you think that I'm stupid. |

i know what you think. they will be raped abd robbed but no. some girls are smart and they know not to be with alot of men alone. I went to an asian country alone before its a litttle scary but im not stupid. |

They probably know that it is safe for them and they know where are the places to visit themselves. So why not? |

I generally agree with the posts that respond by asking "why shouldn't women travel alone?" Saying Thailand is dangerous to visit alone is a stereotype.....a wrong stereotype. Most places unsafe for women traveling alone is also dangerous for men too. However there are exceptions. Some nations with a "religious" police do not allow women to be traveling alone without their "man." I'd probably would not visit places like that unless.....I was really into archaeology or religious, social, etc studies that interested me intensely. |

For the same reason they travel to places like France, the UK, Mexico, Italy, Canada, etc. :
To see more of the world than the 4 walls in their home.
And no... not stupid. You should try traveling on your own some time. |

As to why they go, I would guess either they're curious about another country/culture, they like the shopping opportunities or maybe they go for the same reason as many men... For example:
Though smaller in number than men, there are certainly female sex tourists. In fact, a number of Japanese women go to cities in Thailand such as Pattaya every year to be "serviced" by Nigerian men brought into the country just to work at man-brothels. |

Because Thailand is very beautiful, they are so smart to go there.
I am a girl from Thailand. Any girl wants to go to Thailand, talk to me. I will help you live in Thailand happily.

Do you actually mean, since it is the sex destination capitol of the world, and a well known place for men to go get laid, then why do women go there? I suppose they can get laid too with all the horny men, or by women, in fact, while I was there the most beautiful white woman I have ever seen in person was in the Pattaya Hospital, she was very very hot! Also they can walk around topless in Phuket and rub elbows with the celebs or do the touristy thing too. What gets me is the family thing with little kids in Pattaya, now that is disturbing. |
