Thai boys vs. Amsterdam boys

Recommended Posts

Posted

Amsterdam was once one of my favorite stops for guys. The scene there was once amazing. Amsterdam has seen brighter days. Thailand has seen darker days. I like both places. I enjoy different things about each place.

 

The money boy scene in Amsterdam has changed so much over the years. It used to be filled with boy bars and houses. They are really dead now and the only place to find the boys are the Internet. There are several escort agencies that I have used in the past with success and most of the time I have been happy with them. The best way to meet there is gaydar.co.uk, escupido.com, gayromeo.com and other sites which have profiles. I have also found guys on Crag

Yes you are quite correct the gay scene in Amsterdam is now appalling. :( I used to visit from London every month for the last 10 years or so.

 

There used to be 5 or 6 Houses with Boys but now there is only one left, the Club 21. <_<

The remainder have closed due to poor management, boys on drugs,etc. etc.

 

Additionally, all the gay bars that had rent available have closed (Festival, Music Box etc). :wub:

 

The largest Gay hotel (The Aero) went hetero last year and was closed all this year for re-furbishment. I doubt it will re-open as a gay Hotel.

 

All this is partly due to the internet but perhaps a lot is down to the expanding scene in London, and the subsequent lack of UK visitors who started to use the cheap Airlines a few years ago.

 

I, for one,now rarely visit Amsteram but save the money for a long (2 month+) stay in Thailand

This actually costs me far less than 12 long weekends in Amsterdam and the whole scene is streets ahead.

 

I wish I had made that decision 5 years ago!

I met more than a few guys at Music Box and enjoyed them. It is too bad things changed so fast.

The best gay bar by far in Amsterdam was Club 44 on Spuisstraat. The demise of the Amsterdam gay bars began when the Berlin Wall came down and accelerated as more and more former eastern Europe countries opened up their borders. A great many boys came looking for a better life but unfortunately most of them arrived already hooked on drugs or involved in solvent abuse to deaden the despair of their lives behind the iron curtain.

 

Prague is now the place to go and in fact is far better than Amsterdam ever was.

 

However, neither can hold a candle to Thailand. ;)
