I like it 1/4 gin and 3/4  tonic.

@vinapu will disagree,lol

The question was about using a good black label whiskey and drowning it in mixer vs a less expensive one where you won't notice the difference.....

I drink Bacardi, mixed...I don't like sipping rums, but most enthusiasts do. I don't know much about gin, but from a gin site about drinking gin like Vinapu, straight, the gin that is.:

Not only can you drink gin neat but it's actually the best way to try a bottle of gin, at least for the first time. Some gin enthusiasts prefer this way of drinking gin completely compared to mixing it with tonic or in a cocktail as doing so allows you to experience its full spectrum of flavours.

As for gogo bars, these places are more about flesh than culture, and flesh is flesh. The gogo bars of Bangkok have equal appeal, I think, to gay men of any culture. See my story about the Chinese visitor in Fresh Boy in my story https://shamelessmacktwo.travel.blog/2024/09/27/pouffes-ahoy-at-fresh-boy/ This guy took to things like duck to water.

It was kind of you to help the first time Chinese tourist! I am surprised that there wasn't a Mandarin-speaking mamasan at Freshboys that night! Every bar has at least one.

What’s the difference?

My point. Why are they so insistent on the more expensive version?

Fair enough, but I like to remain conscious! For various reasons!

I know that Dreamboys definitely has a Mandarin speaking mamasan as they do the announcements in Thai, English and Mandarin as I found out one night whilst listening closely.

Interesting information.

Question:

From what I am reading the guys approaches you or either you call the guy.

In the scenario where the guy approaches you, can you just say 'No' directly before the guy tries to sit with you?

I know this sounds very rude but why waste money and time on drink and tip. 100 baht tip does not sound too bad though and let the guy go?

[vinapu]

it's "you call the guy ' , either directly or asking mamasan to.

It's extremely rare that the guy approaches you on go-go bars and I'd say only endemic to The One(Tawan) and likey Atlas as many their boys migrated there. And even there boy will not sit with you unless invited. Mamassans , sensing newbie are another story . In either case " no, thank you " suffices for an answer .

Of course different situation is if you show up in the bar where you offed the same boy few times. As soon as he sees you he may treat you as his property and invite himself to sit beside but even that is not general occurrence. 

In general they take ' no ' for an answer without much fuss so don't feel terrorized , just go and have fun.

No need to tip anybody who did not sit with you unless you want to- this is how I signalize to a boy my interest in him on future visit.
