Anyone who has been to AC more than once knows that this piece of “journalism” is nothing but a twisted, sensationalized, self-patronizing pile of crap.   I believe VoXman’s comments on PIatNight sum it up well:

“Nice puff piece that serves no one but the femme Nazis around the world, metro-sexual writer and the self serving CNN online…..like they really care.  If they really wanted to help, they find out the truth.  But the truth is too hard and not interesting enough to read.

But accusing all of the bars of trafficking and proclaiming all of the girls are being coerced and are underaged, when it is in fact NOT true, doesn’t help fix the problem, it just perpetuates the lie.   But these liberal, self serving assholes really don’t care. Does anyone think that Keifer Sutherland gives a shit about girls on Blow Row after he made that movie?

I am landing in AC next week, I could write a better piece that tells the truth about Fields, but CNN wouldn’t print it.  Why?  Because nobody wants to believe that these girls follow their cousins and sisters from the province to AC because they are bored and have no job opportunities at home.  That some aren’t happy with the extraordinary amount of money they make in AC and then take stupid chances by traveling overseas to work in a foreign brothel like stated in this article.

I am sure she ran that idea around the “stay in” and everybody said BAD IDEA, but her greed said “go ahead”.  Now she is back, full of hate and bad memories, and now it’s easier to blame the AC bars for her plight than to blame herself for making a bad choice that everyone most likely told her not to make.

I feel bad for her, but any bargirl in Fields would say the same thing. That she brought it on herself, and I’d bet it wouldn’t be hard to find a few girls who knew her back when.

The issue is like blaming everyone else because you decided to try crack cocaine, though the information around you tells you not too. One thing you can count on with Filipina’s, they always run their ideas past their family and friends. What happened here most likely is that she listened to her own larcenous heart.”

He’s right.  It’s about choices.  We are all responsible for our own choices.  Sure, other factors like socio-economics might limit some of our choices, but in the end, we still are the ones who make our own choices; nobody else.

There are still several million women in the Philippines, with the same limited amount of choices, who never decided to sell their pussy in a bar.  Think about that for a minute then next time you read an article like this from some tree-hugging, yuppie “news” agency.
