Gay Thailand

On a business trip to pattaya in the next month. Not interested in thai workers/money boys. More into western men . Not as slim as the thai guys so wondering what's the chance of hooking up with someone on grindr. Is it flooded by money boys or are there similiar travellers looking for other travellers for a good time with no monetary transaction. What are the chances to find someone into bdsm ?

I don't go to every bar in Thailand when I visit I tend to try them once and for various reasons may never go back ...loud music , uninterested staff , loud screeching , over enthusiastic staff , and shaking that ....glass One thing that never never gets me going back is when the waiter shakes my glass every few minutes, how fast would you like me to drink it? Only happened twice in my 25 years of visiting but memory is still there One beer bar in Jomtien complex done it on my last visit ,second drink in 20 minutes and he was still walking around shaking glasses Fair enough if someone has been sitting on a drink for 20 minutes I guess and ta…

Returned to Nice Boys last night with a former dancer there. Bought a bottle and mix for anyone. Tipped all 12 dancers and 4 waiters. My friend took care of this and as he was leaving a little early 300 of my extra money he put into a cup for a “contest”. Took a little longer than it used to - to get a “winner”. Another customer had brought in a ping pong ball and put 500 under a glass for a new game on the dance floor. Ten dancers all stood around playing the game with pants dropped. All the time they played the customer walked around and massaged their butt. Evidently they knew the rules but it took quite a while before the ball landed and stayed in the short drink…

Looking for Mr. Goodbar...😂 Mr. B used to work at Paradise and they informed me he is no longer there. Has anyone seen him at a different spa? Thanks!

In a few weeks I'm off to Pattaya on my yearly 2 month trip I sat in my apartment here in farangland listening to a song I first heard in Pattaya 20 years ago called "Take me to the clouds above " I first heard it in those Go Go bars in PattayaLand Soi 3 was it where wild west boys is .

I'll be going to Bangkok for the first time in a few weeks. I've been reading up on the massages, and I'm still confused how this works. I'd love some clarification and if anyone wants to recommend a good place I'd love to check it out! So: The price list says "thai massage 500 body 2 body 1000 thb" etc - ok great. So that's the first part of the price. Now, I know I have to tip. Will the price list always list the minimum tip? If not, how do I know? If it doesn't say, am I expected to know a minimum tip is required, or does their silence on the matter signal none is expected? Once I know the minimum tip, does this tip include the happy ending? For example, …

Hi, I am planning a 4 days weekend trip to Mexico city in October and looking for some recommendations for guest friendly hotels and clubs/bars with nude dancings. Thanks in advanced for your help

This Thai movie, Doiboy, which is on Netflix is worth a look for anyone interested in the subject matter, although it has it's flaws it seems a step up from most Thai movies. A refugee builds a new identity as a sex worker in Thailand and gets caught up in a client's risky scheme that might lead to a better life.

I'm heading to Thailand this weekend, and wanted to check a few things that hopefully can be validated or otherwise. I have 2 days in Bangkok and 6 days in Pattaya. I've made some connections on ThaiFriendly (boys and trans) - is it generally safe, accurate and reliable? Fees seem to be around 2K to 4K for a long time - is that reasonable? One or two said 10K which seems high? Is it normal to tip on top and how much? Are Gogo bars, massage places, sauna better than TF? Is Grindr good in Thailand? Any quick recommendations of places for boys and ones for ladyboys in Bangkok and Pattaya? If anyone fancies showing me around Bangkok and/or Pattaya I'd…

NOTE -- "Live and let live" is another reason why Thailand is a haven for gay men from around the world that keeps us coming back. From Thai PBS World Sereechai Sukmak is a senior sergeant major in the tourist police force in Nakhon Ratchasima province. For Thai TikTokers, however, he is ‘Phi Serg Nicky’, who has 132,400 followers. What makes him stand out from his colleagues is that he is openly gay, dresses as a female and attends parties as a drag queen when not on duty. His bosses have no problem with how he lives his life. Many times, Sereechai has represented his office in beauty contests or on sports days, as a cheerleader. He say…

From Thai PBS World A large group of Thai LGBTQ+ people rallied in front of a hotel in Sukhumvit Soi 11 in Bangkok late Monday night, reportedly to confront a group of Filipino LGBTQ+ people following a violent incident early yesterday involving members of the two groups in front of a food shop near the Nana BTS station.

Two Thais were injured in the incident. They said that the rally was intended defend the dignity of Thai LGBTQ+ people. Officer…

Has anyone been to these two places? Appreciate it if you have experiences to share. TCS SPA https://tcsspa.com/th and Prestige Massage https://prestigemassageofficial.com/

I want to hire (part-time, hourly rate) for a Technology person to help me when I move to Pattaya in Mid-March. I am in need of someone to assist me in phone apps, LINE and other Thai apps and eventually TV/Amazon firestick/ hookup - as well as learning some basic Thai Language instruction. All referrals and recommendations really appreciated. Thanks, JD

Hello traveling in may to Bangkok just wondering if hotels like Marriott or Hilton Have strict policy’s on guests

Found the following contact on google maps. Not sure if anyone has heard anything about this?

Which of the Massage Shops offer Massage with fun in Soi 6. Last year I tried nineteen and it was a normal Massage with the masseur fully dressed.

Haven't been active on this forum for a little while now, but thought I'd give everyone a heads up, esp. those of you who have plans to be in Chiang Mai and will be on the hunt for some R & R. If you find yourself at Circle, steer clear of the guy calling himself Jack. (Pic below.) It's the first time that something like this has happened to me in about a decade or so of hitting the bars. Was at Circle with a couple of friends last week, incld. a local, and ended up offing Jack. The bill came up to 250 BHT for his drink, 400 for the off fee, and 1500 for his tip. (Unusually, the tip was paid to the bar directly.) The group of us headed out for supper, and my Tha…

Pattaya seems to be a beautiful place, and a ideal location for me to meet and deve…
