I think that you guys may be being over cautious. I have travelled in Eastern Europe recently, and there are number of Thai Massage places, staffed by ladies. That are completely legit(no extras). You should know that Thai Massage is appreciated the world over. I would suggest getting the name of the venue in which she will be working, if legit it will have a website, and you can get a good idea from that about the kind of place it is.

TRANSLATION: Sawatdee Forum has problems again. Ultan(one of the showboys linked from here) is sexy.

I agree entirely with you GB, that the information is the important part. The original information in Wowpow's post would have piqued my interest. The embellished recycling of this, with it's implications of "this is the news that no one else has", by an acknowledged plagiarist, would have driven me away. I wouldn't have you do anything, but if Barnum is barking, don't be surprised if he gets heckled from time to time.

Of course not, which is why it is counter productive to try to hype it as if it is!

Excitement will build, sequins will be sown, lips will be lubricated for lipsyncing, bodies will be buffed, until Pattaya is in a fevered frenzy of anticipation. The tickets for opening night will become only available on the black market at vastly inflated prices. Dance and Theatre critics will jet in from around the world. Red carpets will be rolled out. Oh the giddy thrill of another drag show in Pattaya.

I read that Niddy's Nook went bust and closed down.

An interesting contrast in styles between Kquill's original post with the information, "if anyone's interested", and earwig's pr rehash "it'll knock your socks off............"!

Rene, you are quoting from the original articles of 31st October, as was the poster who opened this thread. The subsequent investigation and it's findings are quoted by me and Gaybutton above, and were published in the press yesterday 9th November. I can't really understand the determination to deny the admission of the pimp himself, which is that offences against the child took place at Ben Mansions. It may be that additional offences took place elsewhere..............

I would call that insisting that it didn't happen.

Article in Pattaya Mail says that the Thai pimp in this case specifically states that he took the boy to have sex at Ben Mansions, and it sounds like with more than one guest pervert and on more than one occasion. Never quite understood why ReneThai was so insistent that this didn't happen. "Police officers then went to Soi Sunee Plaza where they quickly found a man, identified as Yospol Srawichai, age 24 and a resident of Saraburi, walking in the street with the boy. Yospol was arrested and taken to Pattaya Police Station for questioning. Jo told the officers he had met Yospol at Carrefour. Yospol asked him to come and play games in his room. However, he had been taken to Ben Mansion on Soi Sunee and forced to provide sexual services to foreign men. He received 100 baht on each occasion." http://www.pattayamail.com/current/news.shtml#hd3

Thanks for the clarification. I was confused!

I am a little confused, the headline says "Mr Bangkok Pride 2007 chosen - a worthy winner,", but aren't the photos displayed of previous Soi 4 events?

So sad that such a generous invitation can be so quickly soiled by old and worn petty feuds

Thanks GayThailand for the info and updates

Wonderful Geezer. Your poor soft hearted friend. I hope that he had a better time next time around. I find that it works if you tell them that you are a butterfly, and if you want to make them laugh and emphasize this, tell them you are a slut! "Ee Ret" in Thai.

Middle Class Guys and Professional guys, in general, would not want to be seen in the Malaysia or Suriwong for example. They are the equivalent of short time rooms in a Motel. The access to these rooms in a motel in Thailand is usually concealed behind a curtain, so that you can drive right up to the door, and have the curtain pulled so that it conceals not only you but your car. It is a question of face, a concept that anyone living in Thailand for any period should understand.

The positive side of Joiner fees is that at least, at a small cost, you are allowed a member of the local population in your room. I can think of lots of countries where you aren't even allowed locals in your room, at any price.

Great! Please share this information on where these 5 Star amenities are available in Sunnee.

You certainly have! You have hissed and spat and stamped your feet...................and nobody gives a damn!

Much ado about nothing!

Thanks for the helpful information. What do you need to supply to the embassy to obtain the letter verifying your income? Is it the same with embassies other than the American one?

Maybe the guy looks at a farang, and thinks that the farang had a good body, but why did he cover it with those extra 50 kilos of fat?!

I think that the first consideration when deciding what to pay, is what are you looking to buy, and from whom? Since this transaction seems to be viewed in purely financial terms. The earning ability of your chosen long term off might also be a factor. However so will their attitude to their future. Are you looking to buy 24 hour companionship or guaranteed sex at the end of a phone, when you require it? Is he "exclusively" yours? Does he have to sleep with you every night? Does he get unpaid holidays or paid leave? Is he for decoration or might he be for real? Whatever the answers, the bottom line is always the same, each of these guys is a person with individual needs. For some, however much money you give will be never be enough, they want more from life, others will be grateful for your genuine assistance. But if you treat someone as a commodity, that is what they will always remain.

Thanks for this warning, I never realised that ATMs could even have guns. Did they slip it through the cash dispensing opening?

April the first.
