I see this board hasn't changed any..

The last time I was in Thailand, the drink prices in the bars were hitting over 400 baht per if tip is included in the transaction. Also the tips for the guys was on the rise as well. Then came COVID. Bringing with it desperate please for money flooding messaging apps and mailboxes. I'm thinking of my return to Thailand but I think my love affair with Brazil, Brazilian men and affordable tip requests. Not to mention the very low bar prices. I'm having a hard time pointing my travel compass towards Asia. I'm wondering if gay price inflation is still in full effect in Thailand?

I've just landed a fully remote gig that lets me work from anywhere with a decent internet connection, including making calls to the USA. Now, I'm thinking of spending a month working from Brazil. Any of you legends done this before? If so, spill the beans! What should I definitely do, what should I avoid, and what considerations should I keep in mind? And of course, share your experience if you've taken the plunge. Can't wait to hear your wisdom!

I just saw a news article today on the violence and crime plaguing Rio de Janeiro. They make it sound like things are starting to boil over out there. And with my friends messaging me complaining about all the crime telling me that it's different now than before. Makes me think maybe it is getting worse. https://news.yahoo.com/brazils-idyllic-copacabana-rocked-crime-013920036.html

This video was sent to me by a friend in Rio de Janeiro. It reminds us to try to be safe at day and night https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0Z8_KxuOwd/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

On my last trip the trouble I ran into was 202 not having a menu or a price list for drinks or food. So for a few days I went in and didn't spend a dime extra for a drink or food. I posted here about it and the next night when I went in they had a price list...

Every year people are getting older and every day more gay men are retiring. Where are they going? Probably not places where bar drinks run 15USD per.

At these prices, they wont attract new and younger crowds. They are milking the last of us before we meet our maker.

It takes one bar to successfully maintain an all-time high in drink prices for others to follow. Just like when Dreamboys was the first to raise drink prices to 400B per. It wasn't too long after that it became the common price for the area. In 2 years the price will be 600B or 650B per beer.

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.

Back in October, when asked for ID, I showed my expired drivers license and that was good enough to get me into all the places mentioned in this thread. Now I carry my passport id card.

From what I got from the story, they forced him to drink something. They didn't sneak it in his drink. I guess they racked his nuts while forcing him to swallow the liquid.

I have not updated anything because I made the mistake of visiting with a friend of mine that lays it down so perfectly for me that I no longer desire sex for a number of days after an encounter. So I never got to have fun with anyone from Lagoa even after my many visits there. I'm now in Rio and I visited point 202 last night. I was ready to order a drink but they don't have any drink menus showing prices or what they offer. So I just decided not to get anything. There were a few guys there that were interesting but I had to meet a friend in lapa so I left a little early without doing anything there. It seems like the guys in the saunas are operating as if it was an off-season. I have friends arriving from Sao Paulo tonight. Before they come I'm going to visit 202 again and see if I can make a connection. Tonight my friends and I will be visiting black cat and maybe sexy Rose. They love the sex clubs.

Last night was my first night in Sao Paulo. My friends took me to chili pepper sauna. I waited in a line I'm about 30 people waiting to get inside and the web app already showed that there was more than 250 people inside. By the time it was our turn ed for entry the line behind us still had 30 to 40 people. Inside the sauna it was a free-for-all. I've never seen so much blatant aggressive sex in a sauna. We got there a little after midnight and left there a little before 6:00 am. Inside there were so many hot guys. Three or four people needed assistance that I can only suspect was due to drug use. But even with that being said, it was a night I will never forget.

It's been some years since I have been to Thailand thanks to the Covid lockdowns, but even before then I found myself guarding my wallet while visiting the bars in Bangkok. The prices of 400 per drink was a bit expensive in my opinion. When people here in the USA ask me about the nightlife in Thailand I don't hide the price for the mandatory drink. Sure, a limited number reduce the price for the 2nd drink but I can only remember once place doing that in Bangkok. I show them the webpages of guys and the bar shenanigans captured by hidden camera and posted on the porn sites. When I am asked about Brazil, I can't help but gush on how attractive the common citizen is there. Even the homeless guys look like they could be representatives for Calvin Klein. The gay bars have cheap drink prices but they charge an entrance fee. The saunas are wild and I have been to some in Sao Paulo and Rio that put what you see on porn sites to shame. Thailand has Walking Street. Rio has Lapa. If I had to choose a street to party on, it would be the Lapa area. Lapa is a Gay/Straight party zone with bars and saunas peppered all around. If you are shopping. Thailand has it all over Rio in my opinion. Sure Rio has markets similar to JJ Market, but Bangkok beats Rio in shopping period. Transportation? Thailand... Bangkok has the Sky Train and Rio has the Subway. Thailand has motorcycle taxi's, Tuktuks, Taxi's and Uber type apps. Brazil has Taxi's, Motor cycle taxis in limited areas and Uber type apps. I have to give the win to Brazil for Transport of tourist if only for the no-haggle cheap taxi rides you get using the apps like 99 and Uber. I hear Thailand has a new app that make hiring any type taxi a cheap and painless process but I have not been there to experience that yet. The guys. Depends on what you like. If you like masculine guys with big dicks and plump asses wearing flipflops, you will love Brazil. If you like lean guys, with slight size bodies, sculped legs and solid asses standing on flipflops, you will love Thailand. Cost of guys? Brazil wins.... (My opinion). Food? Thailand wins! I have never heard anyone say they go to Brazil for the food... Thailand wins. AirB&B Rentals... Thailand wins. I've stayed in places in Thailand for $30 a night that can't be beat! I am not complaining about the AirB&B's in Brazil but they can't hold a candle to Thailand accommodations. As I write this I am packing my bags to return to Brazil. Brazil is a non-stop hump fest of beautiful guy after handsome guy, but Thailand has that certain allure that can't be duplicated in a Latin country. And often when I leave Brazil, I am often spent and ready to relax every part of my body by going home. When I am leaving Thailand, I often don't want to go. It's hard to say goodbye to an easy breakfast morning under the umbrellas on the beach. The waves whispering its lazy arrival to the sands of the beach. The toned guys in speedos hoping for your attention. The cute touts offering trinkets while your eyes buy every curve and bulge of their flesh. It's hard to say goodbye to the freshly made street food, the smiles of guys you have not had a chance to get to, or one of the many bars you never visited but promised you would. The musical singsong of love promises even when they forget your name.. Thailand is hard to say goodbye to for me. Brazil... Lets just say on my last day in Brazil I often throw away my leftover condoms as if I never need to have sex again. Is gay nightlife too expensive in Thailand? Yes. But that is not a good reason to stay away.

I'll be in Brazil October 7. I'll try to post some updates

I don't have any idea,. My friend in Rio has had it for 3 weeks going on 4. He's been lucky to be able to work from home but he thinks he will lose his job.

My friend in Rio informed me he has monkeypoxx for the last 3 weeks. I'm sure he got it in one of the sex clubs he loves to visit. When I was there he took me to about 4 clubs near the lapa area. I'm due to arrive in Brazil in October and I admit I am a lot more concerned over monkeypoxx than I ever was of covid. I am wondering what I will do when I'm in the mood for sex? Will I stick to regulars or will I just hope for the best? I talked to my friends in Sao Paulo and none of them have heard anything about monkeypoxx. This trip, I'm bringing friends from Sao Paulo to Rio for a weekend partyfest before they fly back to work and home. Before I planned a bar and sauna crawl till the wee early morning but now I don't know. And then there is the sauna. I hear the pox lingers on surfaces. Wearing a towel could expose skin to contamination? Maybe? Maybe not? For now I'm going to pull a scarlet and worry about this stuff another day...

🤣
