To think a single man travelling to Thailand regularly is up to no good

[Katyazamo]

My uncle (who I am not particularly close to) travels to Thailand alone several times a year. He is in his mid 50s and has lived with my grandad since divorcing his wife around 20 years ago.
It's suddenly occurred to me that he's probably up to no good :/
AIBU?

The amount of ignorance displayed in the comments is breathtaking.

I am from South East Asia myself, after moving to the UK (not a big city), I got odd looks from people especially DH is quite older than me. I swear people judge me as if he has bought me from some catalogue. I am in fact a daughter of business owners with Master degree in Engineering from an Ivy League university (think Harvard, Yale, etc). I am not a Thai bride and not every woman you see walking with an older white dude is either, and no we are not after your husbands or older male relatives fgs! I have more money than DH, parents own some factories and properties, and I moved here only because I love him. I left a good, comfortable life for him. I now have a good career in the UK, and yet I am still judged by stupid people like some of the PPs here. I can understand OP's concern, but seriously reading some comments make me sick.

I went to the Philippines with my ex a few years ago. Women were all over him, even when we were holding hands, having dinner, etc. He said that it ruined his holiday and that he wouldn't go back.

IMO, any man who wasn't interested in the sex tourism of these countries wouldn't want to go because of the harassment they get from women. For a similar reason, I would never return to Egypt because of the way that Egyptian men spoke to me.

I can understand OP's concern, but seriously reading some comments make me sick.

That's understandable. It's a stereotype that can be very unfair.

But how do you think it came to be a stereotype?

Because softheaded dimwits like to characterise other groups in bad ways so that they can feel better about their own sad little existence and failures. Thats usually how stereotypes come about

Don't get me wrong LassWithTheDelicateAir..... I don't think my nephew has any moral objection to sex between two consenting adults that involves money. It's more that he found it all a bit sordid. He didn't pass judgement on his friends though

Really? Not like the men in my life then. I haven't discussed the 'sex industry" with my brother but I have with my son and husband. They share my views on it- hiring a body to masturbate into is unacceptable and the men who do so are despicable.
