Miss Spinster Thailand

Saovapa Devahastin is the first claimant of the title.
When the Miss Spinster Thailand contest was announced early last year, men sent messages to its Web site offering to come to the rescue of the contestants.
“Right at the start, some of them got my phone number and they called me,” Miss Saovapa said. “But they weren’t asking for a date. They wanted me to be their secret mistress and let them take care of me.
“They said: ‘You don’t need to go on the contest. You don’t need to stand up and say you’re a spinster. I’ll provide for your comfort.’ It was crazy. They thought we were showing off our looks because we were desperate to find a man.”
