Great travel story continues, thank you. Sorry to hear about your misadventures at Boracay, it looks as you did not get enough paradise in paradise. Hope everything will work out and test will come clean. I like your attitude as shown in comments about hotel and sunscreen price . Very often we look for savings where they are minuscle and skip looking for bargains where it could save us plenty. Waiting impatiently for Cambodia installment

you have a good heart. I do it often, give money to the boy and ask them to pay for meals or taxi. They like an idea I noticed, What may be surprising almost invariably they make an attempt to return change if fare was say 60 and I gave them 100 and they like part when I tell them to keep change. Elevated status and nice surprise for really peanuts. Sometimes I pay for their small purchases if we stop at 7/11 on the way to /from hotel but never for their smokes.

very smart reminder that all travelers need to be aware of local laws and what we take for granted at home can be capital offence somewhere else i.e. gay sex in Uganda

I need to say I agree with all posts above, rare phenomena for me. Ladies would not bother me but their screaming would but if they had a good time I guess I'd stay and watch what happens. No shortage of place in BT if one wants to leave. I used to hate ladies in our bars but after they complemented my choice of boys I don't mind and at times even I plant myself beside just to see their antics / and to land another complement about my boy/ As long as those girls bought drinks and they did no need to bar in stop them having fun at their own expense. When they were on stage I'd send my boy with 50 baht to tip one of his choice , just for a fun. Bigger problem would be visit of bunch of straight men who would not buy anything , made some derogatory comments about boys and customers and gays in general and left after several minutes. Apparently it happens from time to time, ,even it was mentioned on another board recently although I never witness that. At Classic last year I saw straight couple kissing passionately in the first row for quite a long time during show. But they offed boy, most attractive from a bunch I haste to say and he looked happy going with them so where's harm? We may be disturbed by such invasions but may be they help bars to stay in the business so ultimately we'd benefit.

you are right , mamasans can be put to good use in cases you mentioned. I had one from Dreamboys spotting me sitting at Maxi's and running to announce that boy I'm hunting for for a few days arrived. Fact is he mixed the boys and brought me over one from night before but this was mistake I'm still one year later gratefull he made as this was fabulous boy and one I was hunting eventually turned disaster. So it looks mamasan knew better than me what I'd like.

are you sure they are charging per hour? just asking as it seem cruel to expect to watch the watch that closely during romantic encounter. BBB Inn and Suriwong hotels in BKK are giving you 3 hours. rightly so , fuck them with such an attitude but colmx may be right- you may run into trouble with our hetero brothers whoring there I think I saw sign and was kind of surprised on one some motel like hotel in soi Sri Bumphen across from Malaysia Hotel saying something about same sex couple not being accepted, may be Christian can verify since he is camping in the area.

nothing stops them here from lie and declare themselves as West Europeans for purpose of this pool. After all good people of Bavaria are calling their brothers from say, Saxony or Meklenburg just that - Ossies / Easterners /

Looks that Canadians are on right side of equation and have fun. Americans have illegal immigration problem but also ready source of cheap house cleaners, baby sitters and burger flippers. The same story all over the world, only Somalis and Afghanis need to do it themselves as nobody in right mind would try their luck there unfortunately.

Great and detailed report, thank you. Bar you did not notice name is X-Boys unless they changed name just recently. Good news is that erotic shows are returning, slowly but surely after post-coup hiatus. Bad news is that drink fees went up about 50 baht from last year, unfortunately as usual other bars are following lead of Dreamboys, too bad they don't have the same boy' s quality it seems. X-size trick with higher price for a boy's drink is old one but still pretty good deal. Sorry to hear about your disappointment with the boy but this happens over and over again from time to time to all of us no matter how many questions we ask and assurances we'll get. Chalk it to experience and move on just as you did. I start wondering if something is wrong with Cambodian boys, I had few disappointments with massage boys, massage was excellent but performance after off none. I thought it was just coincidence but started having my doubts after reading few reports here and there. Wonder what others have to say on the subject. Banking fees are going up faster than bar drinks , good thing we still have cash existing.

and thank God for that, sorry Confederates

This sounds like a great idea, certainly worth trying. But with recent reports of filthy water and floating debris I'd say it's no surprise beach is not attractive option unless one comes from great frozen north and is looking for some sun soaking, garbage or not.

now we know they did not

Dave, I have an impression that when we were younger even water was more moist than is right now.

if I'm there they are pain but if I'm sitting home like right now I missed all that action and I wish to be subject to such a harassment on Silom's pavements. Several more weeks, sigh

I found it by chance on youtube, since heard this tittle before decided to watch and liked it for eye flushing properties. Than thought some here may like it too so posted link. I'm glad you liked it, sorry to hear some had access problem

thank you for an explantion as I was puzzled with bkkguy problems, now I understand, I' d be surprised is this was subject of Thai censorship as there's nothing drastic and no nudity / unfortunately I haste to add / in the movie but what do we know?

we wouldn't mind to hear about your exploits firecat , your boy from #64 looks very kissable. I'm green with envy

what do you mean ''video is not available ' I just watched it yesterday and clicked on the link above, movie is playing. Serious. Please check your settings as something may be blocking your access

Great report and great to see you had good time in Bangkok. I like your writing style, makes for easy read. As for shortage of GWM you confirm what was said in various discussions here, demographic of visitors is changing with more Asians coming which is good sign for trade we are interested in. Travelers from far away places are more sensitive to swings in economic fortunes as is more difficult to find 2000 $ for air fare than 300$ for short hop from neighborhood. If so many people tell you you are cute , you must be. Hope you did something entertaining on your day

I must say boy from # 58 is incredibly cute. Not my type of boys but for this I'd make an exception and gladly let him to corrupt me or other way around

Excellent report, very entertaining, you are not boring us , quite opposite can't wait for a next installment. You started with biggies - Senso, Hero, Dreamboys, only Tawan seem to be missing yet from your adventure. After that will be easy and perhaps cheaper as Senso and Dreamboys are most expensive but in my opinion they can go away with their prices since quality of boys is superb. I'm glad you liked boys at Dreamboys since there were reports about changing line up at Dreamboys, glad it was just temp or rumor. Senso may be intimidating for selection as boys are very close but you did very well there it seems. Don't be intimidated by the mamasans and barkers / boys outside of bars trying to get you in /. I know is easy to say that but entering mayhem of soi twilight can be trying to newbies. Hero is sometimes busy so mamasan probably had good intention pushing you to speed as wait for room can be long up but there is the place you can take you time if you wish. If kissing or whatever is important to you try to clear that with mamasan or boy but if you like the boy take your chances and see where it will lead, some of them can be converted at least temporarily. Good luck and can't wait what your next adventures will be . While I second zombie's statement to uncover ' blah , blah ' meaning feel free to share with us only what you are comfortable with. We are blessed recently with few excellent and energizing trip reports , thank you all recent travelling contributors.

that's brilliant point, often less experienced visitors look around in awe and some fast thinking asshole / it could be me as described above / is snatching dream boy from them. Yes , there are plenty boys on stage but at times you see just one your heart is speeding to , don't waste time and at least have him sitting with you / with a drink /.

I would never either but I do not see it silly if somebody actually does it. This is what chemistry is all about. I can recall quite a few cases when I walked to massage or bar and in less than minute I knew whom I like, recall only one disappointment so almost always in those cases 'cold" pick up would would work for me. Still never did it since I actually like all those preliminaries before off , drinks, chats. etc

In such a case if I would not have an intention to buy a drink his insistence can be easily softened by slipping him 50 baht and you will be left alone for a while. Just make sure this while is short one,. enough to look around , don't overstay your welcome , after all this is a bar. If drink is not bought get out from there .

I'm tempted to make the rule that client can take boy off without paying off fee and wonder how it will go with the bar? just kidding Yes we are customers but even in bars there are some rules we should adhere too like not groping boys in the open, not to smoke if bar is non-smoking , not snatchng boys sitting with other customers already and so on. On a subject, I do very often exactly what you described, spy boy on earlier visit, walk in , if boy is there just call boy over , ask if he will go with me, pay off fee and we are gone. Even if waiting several minutes for boy to get ready I was never pressed to buy a drink. Just last year I did it three times in Dreamboys and once in Jupiter and no problem whatsoever. In A-bomb was planning to do the same but boy was late so I called another boy to sit with me , treated him with a drink and made my boy waiting when he showed up. After all what is better for bar- to charge 300 for drink and no off or to charge 400 for off and no drink? Only waiters will be unhappy unhappy but sometimes if in good mood I make up for that offering them a tip if they will hug me. Everybody has a good laugh and I have my hug
