Perhaps someone can explain why Thai society considers it perfectly acceptable for a woman to falsely claim in public that a man has made her pregnant (“Mynk confesses: my pregnancy was a big lie”, September 5) thus causing him considerable financial and reputational harm, and yet walks away from the matter without punishment.

AN INTERNET celebrity on Tuesday confessed she had fabricated a story about being impregnated by her teen heartthrob ex-boyfriend, saying she only did it because she wanted him to return to her.
