I recently went on a trip to Phuket with 9 friends and part of the itinerary was to experience the A-gogo show or more famously known as the Tiger Show (Thai Girl show). For some of us on the trip, it was our first to Phuket and we only heard stories about the show.
On the last night, we made a trip to Bangla Road where many clubs host these shows. As we walked, numerous salesperson approached us to come to their club for the show but I had a specific club in mind as it was recommended by a friend. We walked along and I spotted the sign board I was looking for that says 'Spicy'. I informed my friends and one of the salesperson heard me and straight away approached me. The offer was 500 Baht (RM 50) per person just to get into the club but I managed to bring it down to 300 Baht (RM30) per person inclusive of a bottle of beer and everyone agreed to the price.
Me leading the way, we entered the club which immediately I heard a balloon popped and a scrawny not very young girl was lying down. So I guessed she must have been the stuntwoman performing the tricks. We just missed it! I looked around and there were Farangs (whites known by the Thais) all around hooting. We took our seats not too close even though it was pretty close. I think we didn't wanna look like total perverts. So the girls clad in their panties but topless were dancing at each station of their pole. When the song changed, they moved to the next pole. They all looked like they couldn't care less what they were doing except for one and she was clearly a transvestite. She was hot and had charisma compared to the rest. She did some upside down stunts on the pole which I wished I could do. Then they all stopped and came around asking for tips.
A slow music then played, it was I Can Love You Like That by All-4-One and 3 girls came out in their bra and panties one after another , stripped each other off totally and lied down on each other and licking each other. It continued til the next song Because of You by Kelly Clarkson ended. It was kind of disgusting seeing such and the Farangs hooting to it. In fact I was yawning and had to close my face cos I didn't want them to see me falling asleep. My friend Suresh, after some time didnt bother looking at all. I looked at my friends, some looked like they were gonna fall asleep and some had tears in their eyes from yawning too much.
I was starting to regret it when the stuntwoman came out. First of all, she has no make up on, secondly, her bra and panties did not match and thirdly her hair was pulled up like when we girls want to take a shower where we clip up our hair and put on a hairband. Obviously, she doesn't give a damn at what she does (not surprising). Then my friends told me that she was the same girl they saw at their last trip when they went to 2 different clubs. Apparently, this woman does the stunt at all the clubs. She makes her rounds and has her slot at each club.
She started of by shooting darts from her va-jay-jay (thereafter known as V - can't bear typing out the word all the time) at 4 corners of the stage and I saw some of my friends jaw dropped. I had to ask them to close their mouth. The next was the whistle blowing where she inserts the whistle into her V and 'blows' it in rhythm to the music played. We snickered cos it was hilarious to watch as she bent down and did it. I was quite disgusted at this point. Next thing, she takes out a glass Coke bottle filled with water, lies down and filling up her insides through her V with water and we could see the water going in and then she stands and squirts out Coke. I guess she inserted colouring or something somewhere, gosh...
By this time, I had so many thoughts like... does she even menstruate? Or had she taken care of it surgically, perhaps? And another thought... Does she find sex pleasurable given the fact that her intimate part has been obviously overworked with such stunts and of course, does she have a sucessor? haha... The next thing involves a ping pong ball stunt, basically inserting the ping pong ball and letting it dropped on top of the head of the glass coke bottle at perfect aim. Who said only men could aim huh? We then left the club, not wanting to see the rest which I saw on the catalogue would involve cigarettes, cat fish (eeeewwww) etc. It was a whole list of stunt which would make viewers stay back and buy drinks after another. Ok, maybe not us... Of all things we went for on the trip, this was the worst and I didn't know if the horrible boat ride we had was worst than this.
Yes, I went for the show and now I complain but I guess I wanted to see things for myself and now I know that I do not want to watch it again. The girls were brave but I felt really sorry for them cos they were treated like the food you get from the pasar malam where people shout out to get attention and sell their stock off. At least in pasar malam, you followed a pricing and you don't bargain unlike this. It's sad that such a cultured country where I find the people really polite and warm is swarmed by vices so out in the open.
Some of those girls were probably mothers desperate to put food on the table. I can't imagine so many girls wanting to get attention and they just decide to take such job. I guess poverty does push you into such height of desperation that you're willing to bear so much distastefully. Thailand is our neighbouring country but I can see that Malaysia is so much more blessed economically and politically. We should be thankful but never stop to strive and ask for better.
