Thailand’s Illegal Sex Toy Market Is Booming

Thailand’s black market benefits the most from these conservative laws; despite being illegal, Thailand’s underground sex trade flourishes. Bangkok’s red-light economy is estimated to be a $6.4 billion dollar industry, making up about 4 to 10 percent of the country’s gross domestic product. Sex toys are sold openly in Bangkok’s red-light districts, like Nana, Silom, and Patpong.
