Here is a fine business opportunity for Black male sprinters/jumpers. Another good thing about Thailand is free access to the National Stadium and the warm weather which is more advantageous for sprinting and jumping.

Black male prostitutes 'in demand'
(FROM "THE NATION" NEWSPAPER, BANGKOK THAILAND)

Black male prostitutes have become so popular with high-society ladies that some escort services have started importing them from Jamaica and Nigeria, a university researcher said yesterday.
The high-society women favour black men because they are "fiercer" and more "thrilling" in bed than their Thai peers, and well built, Nithet Tinnakul, a lecturer at Chulalongkorn University's Faculty of Sociology and Anthropology, told a press conference.
There are more than 100 black male prostitutes catering to high-society women in Thailand, Nithet said.
For a quick session, the women paid about Bt7,000 - excluding other expenses such as hotel rooms and drinks - and for an entire night they paid about Bt10,000, he said.
Thai male prostitutes, however, remain popular with Japanese women who fly to Phuket to take advantage of their "cheap" services and their impressive desire to please, he said.
Nithet, who has been studying male prostitution in Thailand for more than two years, said that after years of catering only to gay men male prostitutes were becoming increasingly popular with women.
His survey found that the number of male prostitutes in the country had more than tripled over the past two years, from fewer than 10,000 to more than 30,000.
He divided male prostitutes into three groups - those catering exclusively to gay men, those catering only to women and those who catered to both.
He identified two factors contributing to the rise in the number of male prostitutes - the economic crisis and a new attitude among women that they should get even with philandering husbands by imitating their behaviour. The number of male prostitutes was likely to continue rising, he said.
Women can find male prostitutes in Bangkok and other large cities, like Chiang Mai and Phuket, Nithet said.
The age of male prostitutes ranges from 12 to 35, Nithet's study found. Younger prostitutes catered mostly to foreign gay men, while those who catered to foreign and Thai women were between 18 and 35.
Thai male prostitutes included university graduates, office workers, students and street children. They learned special techniques for satisfying their female clients, Nithet said.
Supatra Suparp, an adviser of the National Institute of Family Development, said she believed there were more than 30,000 male prostitutes working in Thailand.
