Just saw this in the Bangkok Post-I reckon the Education Minister has a good point:

Coyote girls 'inappropriate at any age'

Education minister Wijit Srisa-arn disagreed with culture ministry's suggestion to set a minimum age for girls to become a coyote dancer - because no one ever is old enough for such a task.

"If it's inappropriate for girls to be a coyote dancer, it will always be inappropriate, regardless of age," said Mr Wijit on Tuesday. "It's not about the age. It's more about the impropriety to do that in public."

Mr Wijit said the education ministry should consider before issuing a regulation that it would work in reality and that it does not violate individual rights.

Amornvit Nakorndhup, a lecturer at Chulalongkorn University's faculty of education, said there is no need to issue a new regulation if government wants to ban college students from becoming a coyote dancer.

According to Dr Amornvit, universities and education ministry have rules that students must not do anything unethical. "These rules can be applied to the coyote issue, so no need to issue a new one," said Dr Amornvit.
