Doing some very late Spring cleaning this morning, I came across a Bangkok Gay Guide for June 2007. I believe these were printed monthly and given out free in most of the go-go bars and other gay venues. Usefully Bangkok was split up into various sections to make it easier to find venues.Equally usefully each sub-map has a box with the main venues listed in them. It is not always easy to locate them but if you look closely they are there. I have tried to take photos of several with my phone. I see that Soi Twlight was listed under its proper name, Soi Pratuchai. Sad to see how many are closed. Yet some still survive even if not in the same locations.4 points

Last week I decided to escape the heat in northern Thailand and enjoy a few days in the heat of Pattaya and Bangkok. Firstly a shout out for Mikes Taxi for the Bkk to Pattaya trip - never a problem with bookings and from my few experiences on time and very good service. Only 2 days in Pattaya - i enjoyed time at a very quiet Dongtan Beach athough my no.79 beach massage man was around both days. At night i visited Nice Boys, Toy Boys and XBoys. The latter has a show which included one explicit final act - a handful of customers. Always amazed at the stamina of star performer Bang. Toy Boys had several asian customers including several females, one of whom delivered 20 thb tips to the stage boys. At least 20 boys. No. 77 from Myanmar and No. 85 from Cambodia were delightful company. I find the stare gazing technique of some of the lads a little amusing. Much prefer the aloof get me out of here look more appealing 😃. Nice boys had at least 10 boys - all willing to show their wares.Must admit that this visit was much more enjoyable than my sombre previous visit a few months before. More life in the boys and less intrusion from staff. That area seems to be the place to go for middle eastern food Also squeezed in a night massage at Paradise Spa in Boyztown area. Then to Bangkok - 2 massages at different Olivia locations - both good and extras on offer. Coffee at Coffee Gindr Silom which is very pleasant. My florentine biscuit was delicious. Visits to Dreamboys and Screwboys. Dreamboys has lots of men on stage covering all preferences - my friend working there pointed out a guy on stage who is 50 - ripped and could easily leave his footwear outside my room. The show has lots of ladyboy lipsyncers - the best parts for me are the energetic coyote dancers and the bearded strongly calved (which I admired and felt) performer. Men on stage dressed in white shorts. My old favourite Screwboys - stage lads in white basketball outfits with some shirtless. Prefer the old previous blue and white briefs/ boxers🙂. Busy the 2 times I went with most seats taken - lively atmosphere. More than happy with my Laos companion who was recommended by mamasan. Drinks 350 thb off fee 500thb. Back again in a few months and visit places missed this visit - Arena, Freshboys, Super A, and revisit others 😄3 points

What has Delayed or Stopped your return to Thailand?
neyger and 2 others reacted to floridarob for a topic
I feel the same about Brasil, as I have written here many times.....but have a Sept trip to Thailand and Bali planned. I know it's a rainy month in BKK, but also return more for the food and massage. Not so interested in the go-go bars as I once was, usually end up with some sort of disappointment.... some of which I blame on customers paying guys even though they don't do as "advertised" or agreed to. This has created a business model of promise everything, do as little as possible and still get paid. I's been a trend for a long while, didn't happen overnight.3 points -
What has prevented or delayed my return to Thailand? Well, I initially had every intention of going back. I absolutely adored the food, the aromas, the culture, the shopping, and the diverse people. However, one factor that started to put me off was the rapidly increasing cost of enjoying a show at a bar. When I first arrived, I had no problem treating a group of two or three guys at a gogo bar, even handing out 100 baht notes for them to tip their preferred performers. But soon enough, the prices began to rise, along with the demands for tips from the waitstaff. A 300 baht drink often came with a demand for a 100 baht tip to the waiter. That 300 baht beer quickly turned into a 400 baht beer, and the same 100 baht tip was expected. Consequently, I stopped taking groups with me to the bars, rarely buying guys drinks. If I found someone I liked enough, I would tip him 100 baht two or three times during my time at the bar. It never failed that the guy would approach me just as I was leaving. Then I had an encounter with Brazil... The drink prices at the show bars were a little over $1 USD, and the tips for the bar staff were under $1 USD. The guys were like catalog underwear models, filling the bar. There was no shortage of guys with plump asses and impressive endowments. The food left much to be desired, but the beaches and nightlife made up for it. Uber and the subway were incredibly affordable, and the gogo bars, dance clubs with dark rooms, and places like Black Cat and Taurus, not to mention all the sex spots in Sao Paulo, were mind-blowing. Hanging out with a local who took me to numerous parks, saunas, and private houses, I was ready to surrender and put up an "out of order" sign on my body just to get some rest. When my three-week trip came to an end, I was astounded by how little I had spent, not holding back on anything. I started to view Thailand as a place that tried to drain as much money from you as possible for a night out, while Brazil enticed you to return frequently and enjoy yourself with its economical prices and attractive, sexy guys. The guys in Thailand, as I remember, possessed beautiful legs, sculpted asses, interesting anatomy, and were sexually adventurous. Their Asian looks and features were truly something to treasure. On the other hand, the guys in Brazil seemed like they were plucked straight from the hottest magazines or featured in the most tantalizing pornography. When I closed my eyes, I could fantasize about them. Due to these and other reasons, I haven't rushed back to Thailand. However, as I plan my return, I intend to reduce my visits to the bars and focus more on the food and culture in Thailand before I rush back to Brazil.2 points

I have never purchased a car for anyone. Whoever "in boxed " you does not know me at all if they think I purchased a car. it's an absurd idea. A tourist, even a frequent visitor, can only help to provide opportunities, alleviate hardships, provide a pride to a better life. Make sure they can stay in school, etc. Beyond that, you are not helping you are bestowing gifts to buy love - it buys sex, not love and says more of you than anything else. Also, if someone has bought a car for anyone, you should know them and the reasons they did it. If you don't know the actual relationship and situation neither you nor I are in a position to judge. Really, you should not pay attention to "in box" rumors. We gays just love dish - I have not spoke to a tourist in Santo Domingo in over ten years. Good Lord2 points -
1. Substantial increase prices of drinks, off fees and fees to the boys. 2. Declined of the gay zones. 3. Government restrictions like limiting the opening hours, dress codes of the working boys banding fuck shows attc. 4. Better opportunities at other countries especially South America.2 points

ASEANS have no problem finding Thai-style rooms to rent that don’t involve contracts, just the habit of paying rent in advance. Many have roommates. A better way to evaluate your relationship is to pay attention to what he does as opposed to what he says. Meanwhile, you may wish to ponder the difference between affection and love.2 points

I made 2 trips to South America from Asia - one to Brazil and the second to Argentina, Chile and Peru. Both were wonderful although neither would have been possible financially had I not had a ton of air miles for business class. Both required 2 overnight flights there and back. I believe it can now be done with much better connections. Rather than fly through Europe I would probably go via Sydney or Auckland. I wish I could return as I loved almost everything on those trips. But with my now having few air miles to use, like @zombie it would be impossible, no matter how much I would love to do so. Getting back to the topic, though, I have also found air fares to Europe from Bangkok have risen quite dramatically. Inevitably, when combined with high inflation rates and massive losses from years of covid, this has to have an effect on numbers travelling long distances to Thailand. On the other hand, during my regular travels in Asia I come across so many younger guys who have first or return trips to Thailand planned. But in general these guys do not replace the slowly disappearing expats and visitors from Australia and the west as their nightlife interests are mostly different. Massages with HEs, saunas with their friends to meet other Asian guys and dancing at clubs like DJ station seem much higher on their wish lists.2 points

I have never understood why anyone who go anywhere that they could not appreciate the culture, language and people. I can't comprehend even wanting to go to bed with someone just because they can be had cheaply. I do understand not over paying , budgeting, etc. Just pay fairly and treat people with respect and dignity. Don't talk down to them or treat them as if they were just meat. I prefer a steady because the whole experience of staying together is vastly greater than just sex.2 points

I HATE YOU ALL!
BrazilianBoiChaser reacted to BlkSuperman for a topic
Ok! Ok! I really don't hate you guys I'm just JEALOUS AF reading all your stories about Brazil. With each and every word you guys type, I'm praying for December 25th to quickly get here so I can be there. Hope you guys are all having a ball, or 2 or 4 or 6. You nasty, fukcers! My husband loves SDQ and swears that's its a MUCH BETTER travel destination than brazil. I tell him all the time, YOU'RE FUKCED UP IN THE HEAD! THERES NOOOOO COMPARISON. 2 weekends ago we were in SDQ. on social media I read about Olympic Park. Apparently, this is where a lot of the Dominican athletes train for various sports. A lot of there athletes have sex on the side for money. Til this day, I've met 3. One baseball player and 2 basketball players. So my husband and I catch the uber to Olympic Park. We get there and withing minutes were blown away. This park has different facilities/areas for different sports. The place is huge and free to get in. Were walking through the park and stumbled upon about 4 baseball teams practicing, some were spectating and others were working out on the sidewalk. Me being the slut I am, I catch the eye of one of the baseball players sitting on the bleacher. I'm always nervous about meeting unknown guys in public like that cause you never know what their reaction will be. I glanced, smiled, nodded and turned my head. A few seconds later we caught each other eye and nodded again. I'm watching this guy and have fallen In love cause he has HUGE MUSCULAR legs and I'm a leg man and get easily turned on by a guys with BIG SEXY LEGS. a few minutes into us staring at each other, he rolls up his shorts while looking at me. I told my husband, I WANT RED SHORTS! my husband replies, these guys look very young. They look like they could be I'm high school. When he said that, I told him YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT, LETS KEEP IT MOVING. we start to wall and RED SHORTS comes off the bleachers and crosses the street and keeps turning around staring at us. As he's walking across the street he's nodding his head in a way that seemingly said follow me. We get to some trees away from the baseball teams and he speaks. My first question is CUANTOS ANOS TIENES? He replies VIENTE. I didn't want to stand and talk to him for too long so I asked for his whatsapp and he put the number in my phone. He told me to text him so he'd have my number. I texted and told him that I believed he was much younger than 20 and asked him to send me a picture of his cedula because I didn't want any problems. He didn't respond so I LEFT it alone and told my husband that he might have been right about the guys age. We continue to walk around this park and there are gorgeous athletes all over the place. We walked past the aquatic center. There is construction going on in the back of the pool. There was this one blk, beautiful, strong construction worker with bulging muscles working on the site. This guy was so blk and delicious. I love my dark Dominicans and brazalians. Theyre majestic looking to me. I asked was he a personal trainer and would he be interested in making extra money to train me while I was in town. He said YES and I asked for his whatsapp. He gave me the number. That personal trainer question worked twice this trip. I listed him as blk beauty in my phone and texted him later that evening. I just wanted to go to the park to see what it was about. As you guys know, I'm MADLY IN LOVE WITH MY BARBER FROM THE COLONIAL ZONE so I had already set up times to be with him each day. My husband was like, YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO FUKC THE BARBER THIS TRIP. I told him, THE BARBER ONLY CHARHES $40 EACH TIME HE FUKCS ME, HE HAS A BIG DICK and right before my trip he started sending silly messages that made me giggle like a middle school cheerleader. So yeah, I was content with just being with the barber while we were there. About 4 hours later were eating and the whatsapp indicator sounds. It's the 20 year old from the park. He sent his cedula to show he was 20 years old. I told my husband and asked what he wanted to do. My husband was more interested in blk beauty and as you can see from the photo I inserted blk beauty would definitely be in heavy rotation while we were there. So as I'm speaking to the guys my husband told me to tell blk beauty we will give him $150US total. I told my husband NO I will tell him $100US TOTAL for both. My husband and I went back and forth with him telling me that I always wanna do SHYT my way ans never listen to anyone else. I told him, CALM DOWN! I KNOW WHAT IM DOING. Blk beauty responds and says NO! IT'S $200 TOTAL. I then told him NO THANK YOU. YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY to make $100US for one hour of work and you won't take it, my friend? He replied NO and I said FINE, we will pay you $120US TOTAL. he said NO again and I told him, NO PROBLEM, MY FRIEND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. I then strike up a conversation with the 20 year old. He takes the $100US and comes to the apartment READY, WILLING AND ABLE TO PLEASE. This guy was AMAZING. I threw everything I had at him and I guess in his mind he was thinking IS THAT ALL YOU GOT. the 3 of us carried on non stop for a little over an hour. He was so AMAZING and so eager to please that I gave him more than what we had agreed upon. We saw him a once more that day, 3 times the next day and once before we checked out of the apartment. The day we went to the park was Friday. Friday night around 930 blk beauty texts. I told my husband, YOURE ABOUT TO GET YOUR WISH BECAUSE BLK BEAUTY WAS HITTING ME UP. He accepted the $120 TOTAL that I offered earlier and asked for our location. He comes over, we all get naked and his dick is tiny AH. I'm extremely disappointed because you know I'm a SIZE QUEEN who needs a big fat dick pounding my insides. We start sucking his nipples and playing around with this guy. His dick grew and grew to the point to where I heard harps playing in my head. He asked for porn and told us that he didn't need to see the video, he just wanted to hear the woman moaning while getting fukced. The sex with blk beauty was MAGICAL. He made sure I felt every inch of his penis with each stroke until he plastered my insides with his Dominican leche. After this encounter my husband and I ate, then strolled past Marlowes. We saw this sexy guy leaning against the car. I spoke then another guy approached us and started talking like he was the guys agent/pimp. I asked the guy DO YOU HAVE A BIG DIKC. he replied yes then opened his phone to show me pics and videos. This guy actually had videos in his phone of him fukcing his girlfriend. I looked at my husband and asked WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO. he says GET HIM. I then tell the pimp, that we only wanted the guy and not him. I told him that the other guy was the only one allowed to come to the apartment and that he'd be back in about an hour. We discussed the price and again, paid $100US total for this BIG DICK SEXY DOMINICAN. these hot blooded, young Dominicans will punish you with their MASSIVE MEAT and I truly don't mind taking that kind of abuse. The next day, Saturday, my husband get a text from a blast from our past. This BIG SEXY DOMINICAN had stopped speaking to us because he heard that we were talking SHYT about him in this forum. He heard we were in town and wanted to visit. I told my husband that I would call my barber over while he spent time with this sexy stud. The barber was last so I played for about 15 mins with our BLAST FROM THE PAST THEN LEFT the room. These Dominican guys are just beautiful and their bodies are INCREDIBLE. Especially BLAST FROM THE PAST. I go in the room with my barber husband (lol) and he asks can he smoke a joint, i tell him sure but outside in the back yard. I briefly go back in the room with my husband and play around because the guy he's with is a beauty. I then leave the room for good, go get my barber husband and we start to touch and make love. I can't tell you enough guys, buy those bareskin thin condoms that I mentioned in my last post because you can and will feel every drop of cum when the top ejaculated. Those condoms are amazing. When you go through the colonial zone, SPEAK TO THE OFFICERS. they look intimidating AF, but they are some of the coolest, horn-iest men looking for extra side money. Their cops just turn me on and when I laid eyes on this one I was prepared for him to tell me to GET THE FUKC AWAY from him. The guy was 6'4 muscular, thick blk hair and the face of a model. I said to him ESTAS MUY GRANDE, AMIGO. and I asked did he work out. I shook his hand and fell in love. I know yall thinking WELL BITCH I THOUGHT YOU WERE IN LOVE WITH THE BARBER. Chile, i am. I'm just dirty ho like my husband says. So I asked the cop for his number. He gave me the number in Spanish and my dumb ass is trying to remember my number in Spanish and slowly I putting his number. He then walks away and I told my husband to keep an eye on him because I want to make sure I had input the right numbers. Sure enough I had the number correctly because when I texted him a pic of him in the gym with no shirt on popped up. I texted the cop about asked did he want to make money. He replied OF COURSE EVEYONE NEEDS MORE MONEY. we agree on my price and he gives me a time and tells me that he will change from his cop clothes and come to the apartment when he gets off. By this time, it's storming in the colonial zone. The cop comes over drenched, tall and sexy AF. he showers comes in the bedroom then drops his towel. My husband and I go to work on him to get his dick hard. It gets hard and is very underwhelming. Truly underwhelming for his size but the guy is a total beauty so I give him a bareskin, lube his dick and my ass and let him slide inside me. For every inch he lacked on his penis, he compensated with his graceful strokes and HUGE HANDS. omg! He took his fist and nudged my lower back to arch my back and raise my ass. Once he was completely in, he grabbed the back of my neck squeezed a little and put a memorable fukc on me. When we were done, my husband asked, WAS HE REALLY FUKCING YOU THAT GOOD OR WERE YOU ACTING? I told him, THAT COP MIGHT HAVE A SMALL DICK, BUT HE CAN FUKC AND I WASNT ACTING! HIS DICK WAS GOOD. I told my husband because the barbers dick is so big, it was good and comfortable to have a dick that wasn't so big inside me. On Saturday I told my barber husband that I wanted to watch him fukc a chick. He asked did I know someone. I told him no then he said he'd bring a female with him Sunday before we left. When Sunday rolled around, I was tired of being penetrated and couldn't wait for my barber husband to bring the female over. I told him I would pay them both. They arrived on his motorcycle, shower together then walk into the bathroom. He drops his robe and she begins to deep throat his big Dominican dick. I sniff my FUK JUICE then Start to touch myself. My husband glad the lube and starts to play with himself. We stood there watching him bang her puzzy raw for about 30 mins before he nutted all over her. Both my husband and I nutted while watching. He nuts all over her then his body collapses on top of hers and he just lays there in his cum breathing heavily. My husband turns to me and was said FUKC. THAT WAS HOT. On your next trip to the DR make sure you walk through Olympic Park or Parque Olympia. I promise you won't be disappointed. To you guys in Brazil, please stop posting!!!! I get so jealous reading your stories. Lol! I'm just kidding. They turn me TF ON. You MF'ers ROCK! I'm sorry if there are misspelling. It's late and I'm too tired to proofread. Pls forgive me.

Taipei Updates: Hans Mens Sauna Has Moved
ChristianPFC reacted to PeterRS for a topic
Since Aniki died 2 years ago, most of the discussion on saunas in Taipei has revolved around the relatively new Soi 13in. It certainly remains THE sauna for meeting mostly young Taiwanese and other Asians, especially at the week-ends when it always seems packed with way over 100 cute guys. But another sauna is undergoing something of a rebirth! For at least 2 decades, Hans Mens Sauna near the Red House gay complex of bars and cafes has continued to attract mostly older Taiwanese with occasional university students after classes and on a Saturday. The last time I went pre-covid it was pretty run down and sleazy, its one main attractive feature being a hot pool where you could sit and watch guys taking their showers, those having emerged from the very dark steam room often sporting sizeable erections. Four months ago it moved two blocks further up XiNing South Road into totally new premises. It now occupies the entire 8th floor of Wan Nian Building. It has obviously been designed from scratch and is spotlessly clean. It obviously hopes for a large number of patrons as I counted more than 300 lockers. I went twice, the more active being late on Saturday afternoon. Since it is so spread out, I could not accurately estimate the number of patrons but I reckon at least 70. Most seemed to make a beeline for the two steam rooms, at least to start their visits, and these were pretty active. The facilities also include a sauna, TV room with reclining loungers for relaxing and watching one of the regular TV movies, a corner with a long couch showing porn, a karaoke lounge, a decent number of private rooms (but not nearly enough if it ever gets packed) and about 4 totally dark spaces with mattresses. It also has an open-air balcony which I did not venture on to. I rarely if ever have met anyone I knew at a Taipei sauna. This time I was attracted to a young guy who came in and seemed to smile at me. After he had changed into his towel, he came up to me and said, "Obviously, you do not remember me!" I hate it when someone says that, but fortunately he went on, "It was at the hot spring about 4 years ago when I was 18. I only spoke a little English then but we chatted a little." Then the icing on the cake, "Really nice to see you here!" Needless to say, after he had showered and we had met up in a steam room, we chatted a bit and then proceeded to a dark room where we had a really great time. Afterwards we exchanged Line IDs and will keep in touch. The one thing the new Hans lacks is ambience, but then few attending will be looking for that. The walls are mostly industrial concrete and the floors linoleum. But overall I thought the clientele had moved down an age bracket or two. Clearly some guys were in their 20s but I reckoned most were between late 20s and mid-50s - except for me, that is!! To get to the sauna, probably the best way is to go through the Red House from near the subway exit to Sol Bar at the very end on XiNing South Rd. Exiting Sol, turn right, cross over the traffic intersection and walk up about 80 meters to the next intersection which is from the pedestrian area. Across the street you will see a large building in green. This is the Wan Nian Building. Find the entrance on XiNing South Road and walk through the small stores (a bit like Terminal 21 in Bangkok although these are mostly watch shops). There is no sign in English for the 8th floor, only one with two Chinese characters on a blue background. The lifts will be on your left. Entrance is now NT$400 (US$13), NT$50 more than at the old premises. I noticed there is a hotel on the 6th floor. No idea what it is like but I imagine pretty inexpensive. On a more general note, as far as the apps are concerned, I gave up on Blued a couple of years ago and was a bit surprised that some of my Taiwan friends had also ditched the app. Grindr was arguably the most active for young guys seeking older westerners, but Hornet and Jack'd were not far behind. I did venture out one evening to the gayish Hot Spring, Huang Tzu. Not as many guys as normally the case, but then it was very hot in Taipei last week and a hot spring is better suited to cooler if not colder weather. Still, there must have been 60 - 70 guys there with some as usual being agressively handsome.1 point -

Could very be, who knows? There’s an entire group of (mostly) black American travelers that often comes down to Santo Domingo and does “recreational” drugs. Not my thing, and I’ve somehow managed to avoid drug use for a lifetime without even having a hint of curiosity. I don’t judge people for doing it, but I prefer for anyone to do it far away from me. Drug users tend to congregate with one another, anyway. They tend not to like “squares”. Now, had he accused me of sipping a few too many Cuba Libres or caipirinhas… hell, guilty as charged!1 point -

This comment makes no sense. Yes you are stupid in the telling. You would be saying that somebody that responded to HV was projecting. A person may project introjects but not behavioural uptake of drugs. Likely was a projection of self-admiration; that tracks. I believe you are an avid cannabis consumer and project erotic images of youth. You might project cannabis by shot-gunning? I don’t know all the terms. But picking on HV tracks. Perhaps the only young fellas of value are those that pepper your blog agenda. Pompous arbitrary sorting much? I suggest you tamp down the amateurish formulations. I believe your drug use could be exacerbating impulsivity. Hazing him may be a projection of a drug haze; there, run with that in your next post. I’ve closed with a stupid idiom, but you might appropriate it.1 point -
Yet another garoto in Rio murders a client at another Lapa love hotel.
mixer17 reacted to SolaceSoul for a topic
The saunas are definitely the safest place in Rio for hookups. In the past, I had advocated for love motels, but this would no longer be advisable — tourist or otherwise, but especially not tourists. Both of the murdered were caught on closed-caption hotel camera, and they must’ve realized there were cameras beforehand (almost all hotels in Rio use them). But apparently, even this isn’t enough to deter desperation. Wallace de Oliveira in the past was both a sauna garoto and a gogo boy.1 point -

The problem about airing this problem on any chatroom site is that you are going to get a wide variety of opinions. Which should you consider appropriate to your situation? It's impossible to say. Further, we know almost nothing about you apart from the fact that you mention you are living in Singapore. Are you Singaporean or an expat enjoying a bigger apartment and a better salary that most salaried Singaporeans? For my twopenny worth, it's too easy to fall in love - or to develop a strong attraction for a bar boy - on first meeting, no matter the number of nights you spend together. Put simply, I'd say that's infatuation. It's not love. With respect to you and your feelings, you need to spend 2 or 3 more visits and a lot more time with him before you can really understand what your true feelings are for him. It also helps to find out who his good friends are here. What other posters have said is perfectly true. More than one boy has been known to "love" several farang at the same time and to have each send money for his room or his family. Please also remember that Myanmar is presently in the middle of a ghastly army crackdown with many murdered and no end in sight. China is probably the eminence gris in this scenario. The last thing it wants is problems on its borders. So it feeds cash to the Myanmar army to enable it to purchase weapons - and so on and so forth. That will not end any time soon, in my view. You must also think what might happen in the future if you find your feelings for him are indeed love. Are you happy for him to continue to be based in Bangkok with all the temptations open to bar boys here? Or will he return to what I assume will be poverty in Myanmar. Would you consider asking him to move with you to Singapore - or wherever you are because Singapore is actally 1,800 kms from Bangkok but you mention 3,000 kms which is more like Jakarta? If you'd like him to move back with you, how do you get him a visa to stay more than a very short time? Can he get a work visa? Does he have any work skills that will be welcome where you live - now and in the future? If the answer is no, how do you see the relationship developing? You move to Bangkok? Or you just visit perhaps more regularly? Just thoughts.1 point

My partner really likes living in Seattle. He has not been the least bit homesick. Nevertheless, we will return for a month in November just to get back in personal touch with friends and family. Seven plus years since we left Thailand. Will we be shocked?1 point -
Question about gogoboy in Bangkok
vinapu reacted to gayinpattaya for a topic
Most immigrant working boys rent rooms monthly, or their friend does and they stay with them. Very few stay alone. 2/3/4 to a room. Sure they return home often to see family if they are illegal, or do a border run (although some have agents that do it for them). Keep in mind many are straight, and live with their wives or girlfriend. It's extremely difficult for immigrants to get long term leases, not to mention save up the 2 month deposit, which is asked in most cases. Especially with condos. As for the love part. You are probably 1 of many customers he sends these messages to daily. Don't fall into that trap. Long game or short game, it's all down to money. I have never heard of a gogo boy working to find love, and not money. Prove me wrong if you want. Find a boy in his first couple weeks, maybe it's possible, but once he's in the game and understands it, you are an ATM to manipulate for cash, if you show yourself as a mark. As for the salary part, that's an impossible question. It depends if they are employed, on a Work VISA, what time they turn up to work to be paid for the day. There are simply too many variables. Generally, the answer is no. They don't get a salary. They live off tips, their cut from bar fines and well, whatever you give them. Keep in mind many have multiple sponsors who send them money because, well, they are "in love". You seem very new to Thailand's gay scene. If you want to find love in Thailand, you're not going to find it in a gogo bar.1 point -

If you wanted to place a complaint, you would have done it privately, as the regular protocol is. You are not a newbie. Your claim is bull shit. You wanted drama, and you are probably frustrated because, so far, you are the only drama queen. At this point, I think it is a mental health issue. I am honest when I share that I respect you, and even if often cryptic, I can enjoy your speech as poetic discourse. But I do not think participating in online discussion forums fits your current emotional balance. Please, take a break and look for help.1 point -

The end of Jomtien Complex?
Ruthrieston reacted to Shonen for a topic
I make one trip a year for six months, so luckily for me air fares are not a problem. In March the guy who runs 69 bar was complaining to me how the bar was losing money from lack of customers. I spend a lot there on Saturday nights as they have a pool competition and I buy drinks for boys so they can enter it. As the night progresses the music gets louder. Even when the guy behind the bar turns it down , someone will end up blasting up the music. At that point it doesn’t bother me as much as I’ve had a few Tigers by then. I think they just love to party with themselves and enjoy loud music. Every time I ventured to @ home bar, there was almost always a drag show starting. It’s annoying but M bar is nice and quiet so often I’ll spend time there. I don’t usually off any guys from 69 bar, though one night a real cute twink was dancing on the platform they have. Unfortunately I bought him a couple drinks but he was so drunk I didn’t bother bringing him to my room.1 point -
Bangkok Pride parade aims to boost Thailand’s 2028 World Pride bid
Ruthrieston reacted to PeterRS for a topic
Am I right in thinking last year it started from close to Samyan MRT station? My own view is that if a Parade is going to be a regular annual event, the starting point - and preferably the route - has to be the same each year. In Taipei with one exception the Parade has always started near the Presidential Office Building close to New Park. I recall only one year when it was switched to an open space close to Taipei 101. That did not prove popular and so the start was moved back. Even though numbers most recently were around 200,000, there was still room for almost all the marchers. Wherever it is located, there should be room for hoped for expansion of numbers in future years.1 point -
It's a great big world out there with lots to offer in so many places. No need for any explanation really. Thailand certainly has a lot to offer beyond the bars as well. Enjoy your visit1 point

There is too much animosity between bar owners. The Thai owners don't always see eye to eye with the farang owners. In some cases there is real hatred between some of them, who actively go out their way to try damage others businesses. It's far from an ideal situation. Some of the worst offending bars are not in it for the money. They have sponsors with deep pockets, and use their establishments as their own party place. Getting drunk is their motivation, not profits. Unfortunately, the complex management have little involvement in day to day activity. Maybe if they did, it would be better. 4 years ago, it wasn't like this. The soi was very different. Owners got along better and this current noise issue was only present on big parties, which was something all bars do for anniversaries and big events. COVID changed things. I would also assume that some are getting desperate with the lack of visitors.1 point -

Ruthrieston reacted to Londoner for a topic
I maintain that three noisy bars in Boyztown contributed enormously to its sad demise by the effect that they had on the hotels. It's something that I shall never forgive; driven away from our favourite location and favourite hotel by the selfishness of those bars, which weren't even necessarily catering for the gay community. I hope that JC doesn't go the same way. We love Agate but the JC isn't, and never will be, anything but a shadow of Boyztown in its vibrant prime. To ensure that we are not disturbed at night, we always stipulate that the room faces the swimming pools. And we've never been disturbed. However, we're not bar-goers and so I cannot comment on what's happening at the bars themselves....though I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't be happy if music curtailed conversation, as it used to sometimes in Boyztown. Bars should be for the customers, not the staff.1 point -

I love Pride parades. I don't know if I will get to this one as it does seem a bit out of the way for the gay area. Why did they move from Silom? I do remember when Hillary ran for Senate in NY. She walked the entire route (as did I for many years). I was impressed as most politicians would come and take photo and leave. I have many fond memories of the event. But, my favorite was one of my boys in NYC brought home an actor from Queer as Folk. It was a surprise to me, but a good one.1 point -

Ruthrieston reacted to PeterRS for a topic
I really wonder why you suggest that. Taipei started its Gay Pride Parades in 2003. It did not pass a law permitting gay marriage until 2019 in which year 200,000 attended the Pride Parade. Which comes first? There is absolutely no doubt that the develpment of the Taipei Pride Parades, each of which had a different social message about inclusion and education, helped in a major way to overcome the prejudices held by those with anti-gay feelings on the island.1 point -
Report about repatriating looted Asian artefacts
Ruthrieston reacted to PeterRS for a topic
Yes, I agree entirely. Colonial looters were just one group. I am sure that each country with looted artefacts had plenty of locals who were very happy to steal and loot for the cash provided by rich fat cats both from their own and other countries. But somewhere we have to draw a line. We can not rewrite basic history. Nor can we change basic historical facts. You mention Haghia Sofia. But that is not an artefact. That is a building in a specific place that was built at a specific time. Sure, it was built as a Christian Church by a Christian Emperor. And the Byzantine Christians were able to hold on to it for almost a millennium. Indeed, they might have held on to it longer had it not been a result of the attempt by other Christians led by the octogenarian Archbishop Dandolo of Venice during the Fourth Crusade, a man now despised by history. While answering the call to help Constantinople, this wily thief changed course and had his fleet sail up to the city state. The end result was not only his massively looting the city but, by so weakening its defences, rendering it far more vulnerable to later attack by the Ottoman Turks. It's no accident that since the early years of the 13th century many of Constantinople's treasures are to be found adorning Venice! So much for Christian against Christian. But that's another subject! Since you mention it, on the two occasions I went round Hagia Sophia it was a dedicated Museum. We all have the ultra nationalist Turk leader Erdogan to thank for changing its status back to a mosque. But this brings us to another point. Modern day Turkey is the legitimate ruler of Istanbul. The leader of Turkey made the change. Does the world have a right to mandate that the ruler of a country does not have a right to do what he might say he has been elected to do? Another long subject! Going back to looted treasures. I believe the world as a whole has to start somewhere. So nations of the world should be the first to show an example. In the colonial era lasting several centuries, they were by far and away the largest looters and thieves. Their governments at least have an electorate behind them which may eventually take up this cause. It's useless to expect the fat cats to start the ball rolling. Indeed, I doubt if anything other than very large bags of cash would persuade them. So that's just a lost cause. Nations, though, are another matter altogether.1 point -

I'd be happy to, but I have covered quite a lot of ground already, mostly in this forum on this site - https://www.gayguides.com/forums/forum/25-gay-china-taiwan-hong-kong-macau/ May I suggest that you first take a look at the various threads that relate to Taipei and Taiwan. I think these will give you a reasonably good idea. Thereafter, do please ask for any more specific detail and I will be delighted to answer here. I hope you manage to read the thread/s about the annual Taipei Gay Pride Parade which is always held on the last Saturday in October. I think it is the most fantastic day (week-end if you are relatively young and into rowdy gay parties with loads of handsome young shirtless guys). Taipei becomes packed with relatively young - but all age groups really as I am way at the other end of the age spectrum and I have been at 7 Pride Parades - gay guys from all over Taiwan and indeed from many countries in Asia. Apologies to those who have seen these photos posted before. The other thing is that as an island, Taiwan is scenically very beautiful. About 7 years ago I took a 5-day coach tour around the island. Although I had known Taipei since 1986, I knew little else about the island - and was stunned.1 point -
Report about repatriating looted Asian artefacts
Ruthrieston reacted to PeterRS for a topic
That was partly the argument for many stolen artefacts being stolen in the first place by colonial looters - that they would be safer and better looked after in Museums in the colonial countries. And sorry @vinapu, I regard that as total rubbish! What right did colonial powers have to steal anything from the countries they colonised. They were nothing but thieves out for personal glory - as so many books by so many experts now agree. Lord Elgin stole the "marbles" from The Parthenon in Athens "to protect them from being destroyed by The Turks." (The Turks in that age ruled Greece). That is what he told a Parliamentary Commission in 1801, but in prising some of the artefects from The Parthenon, Elgin's agents inflicted considerable damage to them. He always stated he had a letter from the Turks agreeing to his taking them as he was in the British foreign service. But Elgin was not an official diplomat and had no right to claim them for the British Crown. The British government eventually paid £350,000 for the marbles which ended up in the British Museum where they are displayed today. Did any of that money find it's way to Greece? Of course not. Lord Elgin used it to pay off his creditors! In 2013 British Prime Minister David Cameron stated he was totally against "returnism"! So much for official British policy! Another example. The Koh-i-Noor diamond is now located in the crown which the British Queen wore at her husband's recent coronation. But it had been tactfully removed prior to the public ceremony. This was a result of embarrassment of how the diamond came to be in the royal collection. It was originally mined in India, for centuries the only country in the world where diamonds were mined. In 1739 it was stolen by the Persian ruler, Nader Shah, in a mass looting of gold and treasure that left tens of thousands of Indians dead. In 1813 by which time the British East India Company held sway in India, the diamond was finally returned to the Sikh ruler Ranjit Singh. Noted Indian historians Anita Anand and William Dalrymple wrote an excellent book 5 years ago Koh-I-Noor: The History of the World's Most Infamous Diamond. In this they finally unearthed how Britain came to "own" this most precious of gems. "For the British, that symbol of prestige and power was irresistible. If they could own the jewel of India as well as the country itself, it would symbolize their power and colonial superiority. It was a diamond worth fighting and killing for, now more than ever. When the British learned of Ranjit Singh’s death in 1839, and his plan to give the diamond and other jewels to a sect of Hindu priests, the British press exploded in outrage. “The richest, the most costly gem in the known world, has been committed to the trust of a profane, idolatrous and mercenary priesthood,” wrote one anonymous editorial. Its author urged the British East India Company to do whatever they could to keep track of the Koh-i-Noor, so that it might ultimately be theirs." And that is precisely how Britain came to steal the diamond. In 1849 the British imprisoned one of Singh's heirs, 10 year old Juleep Singh, and his mother. In return for their freedom, they forced him to sign over the Koh-i-Noor diamond. The boy duly signed. The diamond was given to Queen Victoria in London. To suggest that this was anything other than outright blatant theft is utter nonsense! And further to suggest that Britain should still keep it is monstrous! I give high praise to many of Hong Kong's top Chinese businessmen. Many have been buying back priceless Chinese artefacts stolen by western powers and then donating them back to China. As anyone who has visited China knows, museums like the Shanghai Museum in People's Square are world class facilities. To suggest that stolen artefects would today be destroyed by their return as the Bamyan Buddhas (I cannot find any reference to Banyan Buddhas) were by the Taliban is a completely false argument, sorry to say. These Buddhas had not in fact been stolen!1 point -

Sao Paulo - Report Feb 2023
Connordrick reacted to KJ1993 for a topic
Hi guys, I'm on the plane heading back to London with 11 hours to kill so thought I'd use the time to share my thoughts on my first ever trip to Brasil. I hope it proves useful to someone who may soon be going for the first time, or anyone who cares to read it. Sorry if it's a bit long-winded but feel free to stop reading if you lose interest haha! For context I spent 5 days in SP and 4 days in Rio. Consider this trip an early 30th birthday present to myself lol. Sao Paulo Arriving in Guarulhous was straight-forward and without issue. Despite countless Taxi offers, I couldn't resist paying 4.40 reals for a train ticket to downtown Paulista. Plus the weather was great and I got to see the surroundings. FYI, the ticket offices for the metro only take cash or Brazilian debit cards. On average Brazilians are much better looking than your average westerner (no offence) and within an hour of landing I was already drooling over some heavenly specimens. l don't know if its the genes, the food, the weather, the mix of indingenous cultures or all of the above, but they"re clearly doing something right. Alot of Brazilians also seem to have very good teeth, both natural and veneers. After checking in to my airbnb in Avenida Paulista, I took a shower and explored the local surroundings. In the sunshine Paulista Avenue really is a sight to behold. I'd made prior arrangements with a hunk from garotolocal, potentially risky I know, but along with all the positive reviews and the security measures at the Airbnb I decided to go for it. Despite not having any issues myself, I would recommend sticking to saunas initially until you have some trustworthy connections. A few Brazilians here told me about the potential risks of using sites, even trusted ones. If you must use sites, check reviews, instagram, only fans, etc for evidence of an online presence. I booked an airbnb that was ok with visitors so I would have no awkward issues. Being super paranoid, I also removed any potentially dangerous items out of sight - sharp cooking utensils, irons, broomsticks etc I would also recommend hiding your passport and other belongings or putting them in a safe if available. I also let the garoto know beforehand that the apartement has security and is full of cameras for both our protection just in case they try anything dodgy. Security out of the way, Mr X arrives. Beautifully proportioned muscular frame with tanned caramel skin, arms and pecs bulging through his tight army tshirt. He was perfect for me as I'm into muscle but not overblown steroid-type muscle e.g. Simeon Panda or The Rock etc. He slowly removes his shirt to expose the perfect amount of chest fuzz before moving closer to touch me, what a sight to behold. I won't go into the nitty gritty but let's just say it was a good first night haha. To make it even better, he accepts card! FYI the Pound GBP £ goes a veryyy long way here, I think it's around 6 reais to 1. And that's with the pound being weak at the minute. I would highly recommend Chase banking as they guarantee the mastercard rate of exchange on all card payments, as well as 1% cashback on all purchases, no withdrawal fees either although some Brazilian banks will charge you a small amount. Also FYI, if you're going to be 'passivo', make sure its clean down there as I've noticed a fair few Brazilian GPs have a habit of checking the condom after sex haha. Brazilians in general tend to be very clean and hygienic, the ones I came across at least. All of them to smell great and use mouthwash etc, especially if they smoke. The next day after doing a few touristy bits, I decided to head to Lagoa. If you're a foody and enjoy the arts, culture, restaurants, bars, museums etc then you really cannot beat SP. I enjoy sex but it wasn't the only reason for my visit to Brasil. Beyond Paulisita, SP is not the most aesthetically pleasing city but its full of charm and has something unique to do around every corner. I wouldn't have it any other way. Check out Ibirapuera park on a satuday morning/afternoon to see lots of white topless, hunky, sweaty middle-class brasilians going for a morning run lmao. I was really nervous heading into Lagoa as I'd never been to any kind of sauna before and had no idea what to expect. I got changed into a towel and began to explore. At first it wasn't explicity obvious to me who was a GP and who wasn't (except for the guys stroking their dicks in a corner for all to see). Without trying to brag - I promise - I am in pretty decent shape and was approached by guys who either thought I was a GP, or they knew I was a client like them but wanted to try their luck regardless. And to be fair, there were some sexy customers too! Next tip, as you probably know, learn some portuguese before you come here, at least the basics. Ideally, invest in a language course, I definitely will get some lessons before my next trip. I can't emphasise this enough, especially for emergencies as google translate may not always be available, nor will it always be safe to pull your phone out. English really does not cut it here in around 85% of situations. I am by no means fluent but I spent about 3 weeks beforehand learning the basics. I do speak French so this was a massive help in terms of vocab and sentence structure etc, lots of words are very similar. Knowing Spanish is better than knowing English, but again invest in learning portuguese. Plus, I get the vibe Brazilians don't really like it when you expect them to speak Spanish - so yeah, learn Portuguese. It will also make your experience 10x more enjoyable. In terms of Lagoa, due to previous posts on here I had lowered my expectations. However as it was my first time I had nothing to compare it to and went with an open mind. I was pleasantly surprised, there was a mix of everything from muscular brazilian jocks, to bodybuilders on steroids to athletic swimmer body guy next door types, to slim twinks. There really was something for everyone. If you're into pure muscle then it doesn't beat 117 in Rio (will discuss Rio in a separate post hopefully) but you'll still find a few decent studs here to make it worthwhile. I am quite shy and had no intention of approaching anyone. The best I could muster was a smile and an extended gaze when walking past someone hot. I got myself a drink and made my way upstairs and awkwardly sat in a small side area where some straight porn was playing on a big-screen TV. One or two average GPs approached but I politely declined. Then after about 15 minutes, I made eye contact with a stunning muscular beauty, dark brown maroon skin, about 6 ft 2, looks around 25 - 30 years old, abs with some fur that could literally grate cheese, beefy pecs that you could squeeze and kiss for eternity, perfectly proportioned arms - amazing. For me this was the peak of muscular beauty - not too steroidy - just right. My absolute limit would be Joao Humberto, the gogo dancer who frequents Lagoa, even though he is clearly juicing I still find him insanely sexy. After making eye contact with the guy and smiling, he smiles back and comes to sit next to me. He doesn't actually say anything initially for about 2 minutes. I work out that we're both quite shy. After a couple of minutes he speaks.... 'how are you doing?'... in English. Either he knows I'm a foreigner or he's overheard me speaking broken portuguese somewhere in the sauna lmao. We chat for around 5 minutes with a mix of basic english, portuguese and google translate. Then the moment of truth, he starts bouncing his bulging pecs and asks me if I like what I see. I was sold at this point and there was no going back. This guy is very smooth. Some Brazilians guys really are naturally very charming. He is top and asks for 200 reals. I agree without hesitation and we make our way to a room. Again I'll leave the nitty gritty to your imagination but lets just say he took my number and we had another a session the following day haha Brazil really is amazing! After the session he heads home as he has a fair way to go. I go back to the bar feeling a bit more relaxed. I'm approached by an athletic mixed guy, not my type at all but he's persistent and I'm happy to entertain his chat. Btw I am being deliberately vague as to the personal details of the guys purely out of respect and their discretion. Long story short, me and the guy end up chatting for about an hour like two old friends. We're of a similar age and have similar interests. He's actually straight and only does sauna work to help support his family. I tell him that we're buddies and a programa isn't going to happen but I give him some money to help him out with some personal things. We exchange numbers and he becomes my defacto tour guide of SP over the next few days. He even drives me to a (straight) whorehouse in downtown Republica, very seedy lol. Be very careful if you go to Republica in the evening, or even getting into cars of unknown people. I took a risk here. I hate labels but if we have to use one, you could call me bisexual. We both enjoy the same girl at the brothel for only 40 reais each. A cute carioca from Rio with a big bunda (ass)! Another word of caution, especially in the context of GPs both inside and outside the sauna, they will always have a sob story and will continue to beg for your financial aid. It did become really onerous (especially in Rio) so just be careful and don't let people take advantage of you. I had to block one or two GPs from Rio because the begging just got more and more ridiculous, not to mention rude. It was clear they were only interested in money. A part of me feels sorry for them as life is tough over there. I went to a friend's place in Ipanema and his living conditions honestly broke my heart. I believe he was paying alot per month for the luxury of a shoe-box room with a shared bathroom and toilet. Tbf the view of Ipanema beach was great. I'm told by Brazilians that the average monthtly salary in Brazil is around 1000 to 1500 reals for blue collar work, and around 3000 reals for a working professional. Lots of them seem to have side hustles to supplement their income. From a money perspective we in the west sometimes don't realise just how fortunate we are. On the other hand, there is a correct way of asking for things - to be clear I have no issue helping out GPs in genuine need if it's done with respect and good grace - don't take the piss and try to take advantage of me. Any decent GP asking for money outside of their services will do so respectfully and is often embarrased to ask. They'll often say something like 'i'd appreciate anything you can help me with for X reason etc' In terms of GPs, I made some amazing new connections/friends in Brazil but only a small minority of these are not underpinned by a financial dynamic. Yes you can get free sex online, at bars, beaches etc but obviously its way more effort and is not guaranteed. Furthermore, I am told (by Brazilians) that Grindr in Brazil is becoming increasingly dangerous so again be careful using it. The following day and another trip to Lagoa - after some more touristy stuff. This time I've got my GP buddy with me as a wingman haha. Obviously I will tip him lol. Today I take a seat in the bar and watch some football (soccer) on the big screen upstairs. Brazil's under 21s are playing. I nip downstairs quickly to check something in my locker when I see the most delicious slice of white Brazilian hunk known to man. About 6 ft 1, massive shoulders, pecs, arms, creamy white skin and big full juicy red nipples, no signs of steroid use, what more could you ask for? His face isn't the best in the world but for that body I honestly don't care. We make brief eye contact but he seems to be chatting to another client. For now, he is the only guy on my radar. It's about 9pm and a few minutes later I see him putting his clothes back on in the changing room, my heart sinks as I think he's leaving. I head back upstairs to meet my GP buddy who seems to be struggling for clients recently. I tell him about the GP downstairs and he jets off to try and help me out. A few minutes later, my buddy comes back with the white hunk who could rival Hercules himself, my heart is racing. 'Obrigao irmao' I whisper to my wingman and tip him 50Reals. Hercules pulls me to one side and begins to chat in portuguese, I do my best to understand him but google translator is definitely needed. After brief small talk, I ask him how much he wants. '300?' he replies. I was hoping for less but no way was I about to negociate with this hunk and risk losing him. I agree and we head off to a cabin. The sex is decent, not amazing but it fulfills my fantasy of the hunky white personal trainer at the gym I've always wanted to bang. He's also a good kisser, as are all the Brazilian guys Ive been with, even the ones who are straight/Bi/top only etc. After a steamy session he tells me about his life and we discuss the gap between rich and poor in Brazil. He asks me if I'll be back tomorrow to which I reply 'yeah I should be' even though I was undecided at that point. We bid each other farewell and he leaves Lagoa for the night. After my encounter with Hercules, My GP buddy comes back to greet me. I thank him again for helping me out and we have a chat about gogo boys. He says it is possible to get one if you know the right people and he seems to be confident he can arrange it for me if the specific gogo boy was at the sauna. Other GPs also told me that gogo dancers are available for programas if approached discreetly and in the right way, but it goes without saying you will pay more. I did try contacting one or two on instagram but they have so many followers it's tricky getting them to even see your message. Alas, my dream of bedding Joao Humberto or Lipe remains alive, hopefully next time now that I have my wingman and some new tips. The following day, I'm all sexed out and I needed to get Ready for Rio. A GP/friend (a guy from a site i'd met a couple days ago for a quick session - yes risky I know) invited me to his place to smoke some weed in Vila Madalena. Under no circumstances would I ever suggest going back to a guy's place in Brazil unless you are 100% sure you know them well, especially in light of recent events at 117 in Rio. In hindsight this was probably a lapse of judgement but ironically this GP is now one of my few genuine friends where money doesn't dictate our relationship. He did have ID the first time I saw him and has a stable job, after sex we ended up speaking like old friends for hours. I trusted him somewhat then but now I trust him completely and we've made plans to travel to other parts of Brazil together next time. But I reiterate, under no circumstances should you go back to a guy's place unless you are 100% sure they can be trusted or you know them very well. It's just not worth taking the risk. Furthermore, make sure their building has security cameras and a concierge. I'm not really a smoker, but we had some weed at his place, some drinks and a bit of foreplay all before I headed off to the coach station to catch a bus to Rio! Another word of caution, there are young guys on Avenida Paulista riding around on bicyles stealing phones, bags, hats etc. I saw it happen to a gringo right outside Mcdonalds so be sure to keep your valuables out of sight and secure. I used a fanny pack which works pretty well. If you really need to use your phone, e.g. to check on an uber etc - do it quickly and keep your wits about you, ideally go into a shop, restaurant, shopping area etc. If none of these are nearby then stand up against a wall so you have no blindspots. You will get into the habit of being careful with your phone in Brazil. It's such a contrast to London or other big western cities where you can safely be on your phone at every given moment in practically any given location. Most places take card but I would recommend having some cash to hand, especially because ATM/cash machines in SP are few and far between and they tend to close around 8pm (the ones inside the banks). Also most GPs only take Cash or PIX ( a Brazilian money transfer service which only Brasilians can use). Lastly, unless you want to destroy your Uber rating, don't slam the Uber doors lmao. The Ubers are also dirttt cheap out there. To sum up, I had a blast in SP and will defo be back either this year or early next year God willing. I hope somebody finds this report useful, when I get some time I will try and do one for Rio. Currently waiting for a connecting flight to London in Lisboa, damn they have some seriously hot Portuguese immigration officers here haha.1 point -

Me? Put on airs? Self-absorbed? I'm a black man from the pork and bean projects in Miami. One of the dangerous neighborhoods in Dade County. Honey, I couldn't put on airs if I wanted to. Im not ashamed to say that the only reason I can travel the way that I do is because I travel on points accumulated through my SPIRIT CC. Someone cracked about me flying COACH to Rio in December, but babyyyyyy at that price, I will fly COACH EVERY SINGLE TIME! PUTTING ON AIRS would be me lying and saying that I'm flying FIRST CLASS and I don't have to lie about that. I'm a bitch that's financially aware of what I can and can't do and I will NEVER live OUTSIDE OF MY MEANS to IMPRESS ANYONE. NEVER HAVE AND NEVER WILL! It's just not that important to me. I'm also not ashamed to tell you or anyone else that I'm a SLUT, WHORE AND A NASTY FREAK. When I take my trips those trips include sex parties, watching my barber husband have sex with dominican women while i watch and suck my husbands dick or having multiple sex partners while im abraod. HELL, it's my money so shouldn't I be able to enjoy it like I want to. AND AGAIN, I'm a SLUT, WHORE AND NASTY FREAK! I've said that in almost all my post. It's not in my character to mistreat anyone or make anyone feel inferior to me. It's never that serious for me because anyone can do like I did and that's go to school, study hard and make your life better. We all have that right and ability and I encourage anyone reading these forums who vicariously live through our stories to do just that (get in school) to make a better life for yourself so you can be AN INSATIABLE, NASTY SEX CRAZED SLUT LIKE ME and a lot of other ppl in this group. There are thousands of people in this forum, but only a few main contributors. When I joined this group, I read, learned and was entertained by these forums and took the knowledge that the contributors were dropping and used it to my benefit. When I post, it's never for clout or make someone feel inferior to me. I post to educate the 300-500 ppl who visit my posts so that they will hopefully learn how to move when they travel internationally. We're all WHORES and all sleeping with some of the same men and swapping the same DNA when we travel so that would make us all brothers. LOL! As Jerry Springer would say, "Take care of yourself and TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER!"1 point -
I think you can talk to each boy and ask. Usually I am the one who asks for condom but some don't seem to mind...no personal experience because I prefer condom, not just hiv but hep-c. I also do not like taking prep so doing so for escorts is kinda off my limits. I could do for my regulars back home but not sauna...1 point

I am not looking for further discussion from the broad membership. I have been adequately informed about the existence of posted content on this board and the other MSM board, content that underpins the basis of my protest. Moderators can take it from here. Their Board, their rules. Wear a condom, literally and figuratively. You never knows, do ya. From what I can gather so far, a similar complaint has been brought upstairs over at the other gay forum. There are a few good dependable guys to lean on.0 points
