 Un-Thai My Straps | | By: MisterMontyMonkeyMan | Published: 09/13/2003 | | |  |

BANGKOK - Thailand's government has banned three racy new love songs it deems obscene from the country's airwaves, a state official says.
The country-style songs -- "I Fear No Sins" and "I Do Fear Sins", which allude to extra-marital affairs, and "Big, Flabby Buttocks" -- were forbidden from being aired on radio and television stations this week.
"We have banned only new songs which are immoral and have sexual contents," Pramoj Rathavinij, deputy director-general of the Public Relations Department said on Friday.
Fifteen older love tunes -- including classics such as "One Woman, Two Men" and "I Love Her Husband" -- had been condemned but not banned, he said.
"In society, does freedom of speech mean we have to talk only about sex?" Pramoj said.
The government of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, a former policeman, launched a moral crusade in 2001 to reimpose "social order" and wipe out illicit sex, drugs and underage drinking.
In April, the culture minister berated Thai women for wearing "spaghetti-strap" tops that revealed bare shoulders, saying it was "un-Thai".
