Do you think the Bar girls like her jobs or have no choices?

In Phuket at least, it's pretty much an accepted part of life, and is viewed quite different to how prostitution is seen in the west. It did seem to me though, that it was one region or group that provided most of the girls. They looked similar and had darker skin than the other Thai girls. There may be some prejudice that limits the options for these girls, almost like a caste system. They may be simple farm girls, promised the world by light skinned Thai boyfriends who think them of easy virtue, and dump them once they are finished with them, often with a child to support. Or they may think, what the heck, everyone thinks it's all we do, and my girlfriend is making lots of money, so I may as well. Perhaps you can tell us of this ?
