My underline. One of the reasons I rarely go to Jomtien complex is that I like to watch boys in underwear (like in gogo bars). Seems I would just have to stick around longer? But then, 3 am is way beyond my bed time.

I have been many times for their second hand book sales (twice per year, around May and Nov). Good luck with the renovation.

One could say I'm too lazy to eat. Most other activities are more interesting than eating, so I postpone eating until I feel hungry. I would rather put my finger into a power to recharge my energy instead of eating. When I travel, I have to make the most out of daylight. By getting up at 9 and leaving at 10 (after breakfast), I lose 4 hours already, so I might only have a snack during day not to waste time eating, and wait for nightfall for my second meal of the day (after breakfast). When traveling with friends, eating is always a contentious point. I can eat anywhere, anytime, almost anything, whereas my friends are picky (especially concerned about cleanliness of the place).

Probably referring to Sukhumvit Soi 26-38, Rama IV end? After such a heavy rain with poor draining, it's interesting to see how uneven the roads are, and where there are low points. This could even be something to consider when choosing a place to live: look for signs of flooding (like an elevated walkway built by locals to get across large puddles) - a friend complains about soi dogs in front of his place, he doesn't like going out or coming back in darkness for fear of being bitten. I observed the draining being cleaned (ususally by prisoners - their shirts or the car has the name of the prison on it), there is a lot of garbage and sand partially blocking the drains.

In your circumstances (pick them up in a bar and take them home, and being a well known customer), they probably are honest. And the outcome - sex for money - is clear. And no confusion about place and time to meet. However in my situation, looking for free sex, with the very distant prospect of the relationship, I encountered all the deceptions and manipulations I described in my blog. Some of them can pass as cultural or language misunderstanding.

So he tells you. You are planning and expecting too much. The same can happen from the other side, I have had boys I haven't met asking me if we could become boyfriends. Skip all the wedding planning, go to see him in real and spend some days together to see if you work out.

I don't drink water from bottles, and I don't have a filter at home. I drink water straight out of the tap, without ill effect. As for willpower and belly fat, genes play a huge role. Some boys just have perfects abs and pecs without ever setting a foot in the gym. Even if I went to the gym, I wouldn't reach their perfection. Anyway, I care little about my own abdomen and pecs, more about others. Those with the wrong genes fight an uphill battle trying to get slim. Unhealthy food contributes. I am blessed with taste buds that tell me that cold (refrigerator or iced) tap water is about as delicious as a drink can get. Sometimes orange juice or watermelon fruit shake can top that. And my sensation of hungry and full is that I only ever feel full after an all-you-can-eat-buffet. Before a normal meal I'm hungry, and after a normal meal I'm not hungry any more, but would have to eat the same meal (or similar amount of another dish) again to feel full. So basically, my nutritional status vacillates between hungry - not hungry. (Ten years ago, I had a friend who used to open the top button of his pants and hyperventilate after meals.)

You are a patient man. Thailand is a different game than the US or Western Europe. Read my blog for some stories. However, if the boy speaks English, that's a good start (part of the reason for my poor success is that I speak Thai and have access to all village idiots).

No thanks. I can see fully dressed, or some shirtless, elsewhere for free. I should go to the Bangkok bars more (or rather: go there at all) to see who is in the trade. Yesterday I saw a boy whom I would take for free in a sauna, and then learnt from a friend that that boy is money boy and would be available for 4000 Baht (sic!). Another boy (friend of the money boy) who showed an interest in me (but too fat for my taste) told me he is currently unemployed, but used to work as dancer before.

On chrome as well, the two models are shown in full!

I just noticed that ryanasia's user name in his posts is in grey (others are in dark red/brown) and when I move my mouse pointer on it or click on it, nothing happens (whereas for others informations about the member comes up). What happened to him? (his latest post in this thread is above this)

For a change, I recently opened gaythailand in internet explorer (normally use firefox) and there the two models on right and left side are shown in full! But everyone can read it, and everyone can create a membership account and see the pictures! The only thing that is not secure is your log-in data.

For the tourist, a tuk-tuk ride will cost at least twice of a taxi. Some people might find riding a tuk-tuk fun, I don't and haven't for years. Sometimes for fun I silently observe tourists negotiating with tuk-tuk drivers in tourist places, and inwardly cry "Get a taxi!".

And a reminder that Malaysia hotel has minimum age for joiners 20 years (just the hotel's policies, not the law) and even I have to leave my ID at reception when I visit friends who stay there.

What are your interests? If you want sex, go to Pattaya. If you want beach, go to Phuket. If you want temples, go to Chiang Mai. (But CM and Phuket are unsuitable for daytrip for distance from Bangkok, and in Pattaya venues that sell sex open at night, so you would want to stay over night.)

You lucky man! I have met well over 100 Thai boys (in saunas or online and then in real life, not moneyboys), and none of them is like yours.

I don't know, but I don't think so. There are a few reports of boys who are positive and continue working. Statistically, I must have had contact with dozens who are positive. I don't ask.

Sanam Luang is the name. "Thai masters" an oxymoron? When the Thai do something new that involves engineering or science, there is a good chance it goes wrong (the statues of the Thai kings in Hua Hin or the giant standing Ganesha in Chachoengsao, both had to be put into scaffolding for renovation because there was structural damage shortly after opening). This is a pyre, so everything will be burned in the end. In this case, an ample amount of duct-tape can be used to hold everything together until the main event.

In my experience, there are few Thais (and other SEA) who enjoy traveling the way I do. You can probably find someone to accompany you to a prestigious place (Phuket, Hua Hin, Chiang Mai), but for off-the beaten track, probably little interest. And those few I met who showed an interest, it's rather "Can I go with you?" than "I can show you around!". By now, my knowledge of Thailand is vastly superior to most Thais I have met. But the average tourist might with some luck find a boy who can organize a trip. But keep in mind that most Thais don't like walking, whereas for me everything under 5 km is walking distance. Meet the family ("poverty porn") in the boy's hometown is mildly entertaining once, utterly boring every further time to me. After mostly so-so or poor experiences with Thai boys, I wouldn't want to depend on someone in another country (where I don't speak the language). How did you (numazu and BurBoy) arrange that trip to Burma, I mean in particular getting time off work and making a plan where to go? I have several Burmese and Lao friends, but I don't know if any of them would be interested, able and could get time off work.

Does a bear shit in the woods? Does the Pope read the Bible? (Btw, interesting member name; in German, "Schuft" means "villain", is this intended?)

That probably involves putting a wall back in? The very wall that was removed just a year ago? Like that place, currently Stardust Karaoke, near Sunee, which had wall out - wall in in the last years.

Most saunas have been around for years. In the last 5 years, several closed and only two new opened: Waterboy Onsen and Nake (and Nake is reincarnation of Muffil in new location and new name). "cater almost exclusively to young Thais" I wish they did! But the age average is above 30, which is too old for my taste. Condoms and lube are given with locker in most saunas, or are available on request. Nowadays I avoid dark rooms, so I can't say what goes on in there. It's mostly too dark to see, you would have to grab the cock to feel if a condom is on. I think use of condom is the norm in saunas. Supported by two recent cases in 39 underground, where my partner wanted to fuck me and produced a condom.

This information is specific enough for someone in Chiang Mai to verify or falsify. I would be happy if we could move on from "I'm a 24-year-old Singaporean exchange student in Chiang Mai" - "No, you are not..." - "Yes, I am..." to this kind of post quoted above.

That might be. Actually Thai embassy in Saigon accepts only recent bank book with >20,000 THB, but not cash as proof of funding. Actually I bring both, cash and bank book. But when I entered in Sadao, immigration officer said "Show me the money!" and I don't think she would have accepted bank book.

You mean if asked at immigration to show 20,000, you just go to an ATM and withdraw the money? That thought entered my mind as well (better than carrying 20,000 THB in cash with me, in addition to about 500 Euro or USD depending on where I go), but I forgot once again to check in Suvarnabhumi if there are ATMs before immigration.
