Gay Thailand

To cut a long story short I'm thinking of packing it all in and retiring to Pattaya but I want to be able to do something all day I get bored & depressed otherwise. Im thinking of a boy go go bar ,one currently for sale actually I see for 1.5 million baht Dream boys ,or a boy massage maybe easier , I'm thinking a massage place in Jomtien complex open at about midday close at 10pm I have my retirement and rental income coming in from my home country, so it's not the money if I can "break even " it's ok ( as the owner of the former Corner Bar used to say to me ..."as long you can break even" I don't want something too time consuming …

A quick thumbs up review of a new massage shop in Bangkok called "Ganymede Spa." Map Line ID: Rubyricher Ganymede Spa opened two weeks ago near the Phayathai BTS station. It's easy to get to. It's towards the end - on the left - of a private road that leads to the Pathumwan Resort Condominiums. A short walk from Phayathai BTS Exit 2. Reception is upstairs, and the massage rooms are up another flight of stairs. Everything is very nice and new and tastefully done. Photos of the guys are on Line. It's a small shop, and new, so hard to predict how many guys will be available. On a Sunday at 5:00 one guy was available and the others (1 or 2?) were with c…

Rescued "Wild Boars" Footballer Dies in UK February 15, 2023 Luang cave survivor Duangphet “Dom” Phromthep, the captain of the Wild Boars football team, has died suddenly in England. One of the young "Wild Boars" footballers rescued from flooded Luang Cave in Chiang Rai in 2018 has died suddenly in England. The death of teenager Duangphet “Dom’’ Phromthep came as a shock to his family and friends. The cause of death was unclear. Unconfirmed reports in British media said he sustained a head injury. He had signed up for the Brooke House College Football Academy in Leicester, England, last year. Social media was inundated with messages of grief…

From Thai PBS World Senior Advisor on Research and Policy at the HIV Research and Innovation Institute, Professor Dr. Praphan Phanuphak, has expressed optimism about Thailand’s ability to end AIDS. Ending AIDS as a public health threat as part of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal agenda was achievable if policymakers fully invested in community-led responses, and sectors worked together to support and revise policies and regulations that currently impede the work of community organizations, said Praphan, the first doctor to diagnose an AIDS patient in Thailand. “We just need a strong, genuine political commitment from our government that we can end AIDS…

Hello Everyone I'm devastated to have just returned home from a trip to BKK. I hadn't been since 2019 and definitely made up for lost time. It was sad to see Soi Twilight gone since I was last there, but also exciting to see new (and old) bars sprouting up across the street. I don't do massage places, so this is just some notes on the bars I visited Dreamboys Dreamboys (original) was the first bar I ever visited in BKK, and we've made a tradition of always visiting here on our first night. I always remember this place more for its crazy shows - like where the big inflatable cock squirted water over everyone. That seems gone now sadly. New venue i…

Almost a week now this web site not available...do you know why?

Is there a really nice gym in Silom that one can pay to access on a daily basis? A large facility with a good selection of new, well-maintained equipment, very clean, good air conditioning. Bonus if there’s a concentration of good looking gay guys who work out there thanks.

Hi! I'm planning on going solo to BKK i next month. I've been thinking on going to BKK gay redlight districts to have some fun during my short visit. Do ypu have any recommended bar or place to start with? I dont speak thai, is it gping to be issue if I'm planning to go out with a bar boy. And Do you have an estimate how much does it cost to out for oth short term and long term?

Hi guys, wanted to ask if any of you have any recent trip reports on Chiang Mai boy bars? First time visiting Chiang Mai and was wondering if I could seek some guidance from our fellows here at Gay Guides. Thank you

I see that Dream Boys Pattaya was raided last night. Gambling and foreign workers were found, but thankfully, no prostitution. The Pattaya News website has a video of it all. Raid was prompted by reports from "a concerned citizen". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V75aC20mMHs&ab_channel=ThePattayaNewsThailand Wonder who the boss pissed off?

Hi everybody , Most of the reports here are about the gogo bars and massage places but very little info about saunas . Will be happy to hear your feedback particularly for Krubb and Chakran saunas . Thanks .

Was it 10 years ago? Longer? There was certainly a time when the internet had a considerable number of gay websites focusing primarily on Thailand. Many were informative, some more political in content, some just bitch boards - some providing both interest and amusement. This Board now has a much wider geographical range, but still with quite a number of separate threads on Thailand and others on Asia. To my knowledge there are only two left concentrating on Thailand - sawatdee network and gaybuttonthai. Sawatdee has gone through several incarnations over the years but now seems also to be slipping out of most readers' daily posting. In the last 14 days, it has had n…

It happened last holiday. If my memory serves me right, I was sitting at HM Beer Bar. A guy greeted me in the typical Thai manner. And then it happened: I greeted back with a Wai. Completely unintentional and I only become aware after I have done it, and I was a bit confused ... am I spending too much time in Thailand? Of course I watched one or the other video about how to wai correctly, but then I had decided I am a farang and it is better to greet as I am used to in the Western world. So now my question to you is: when was your first Wai? Intentional or Unintentional?

As I prepare for my inaugural voyage to Bangkok, I've taken the plunge and downloaded the "Line" app, which seems to be a staple for communication in Thailand. I'm excited to explore the naughtier side of things. Any suggestions on "must-have" contacts or groups I should add on Line? I've been trying to piece things together using the search bar but it's been somewhat of a chore. Thank you!

any recommendations on good male massage or sauna in krabi. thanks

Hi guys, anyone about for a bar crawl in Pattaya, 10th to 26th November?

This happened one month ago in 1st week of October. I was in Bangkok for a weekend. Took evening flight from Singapore. Once I checked into room at Le Meridien, off I went at 9.30pm to Hotmale Beer Bar downstairs to meet with forum member whom I haven't met for two years ever since Covid. New bar Sol directly opposite had some yummy shirtless guys hanging around once their rotation on stage ended. Was very tempted by blonde guy in photo but surprisingly, I didn't step into any gogo bar during my 3 nights. I shall explain why later. Sorry @vinapu for not being able to report on the show or the guys in Sol.

From Pattaya Mail By Barry Kenyon Hopes that visa exemptions for countries which provide big numbers of visitors to Thailand will create a further boom have yet to be realized. Currently, Russian tourists are awarded 90 days visa-free, whilst China, India and Taiwan receive 30 days. These discretions are currently timed for a six months limited period, although prime minister Srettha Thavisin would like permanency if no serious security issues loom. Visas on arrival previously cost around US$30. However, the customer savings would be partly wiped out if Thailand goes ahead with its US$9 entry tax to be levied on all international tourists. This proposal has…

From Nationthailand: With the implementation of the Smart Path system for the check-in of flight VZ626 from Bangkok to Singapore, Thai Vietjet has become the first airline that initiated the ‘Smart Path,’ an automated biometric identification system developed by the Airport Authority of Thailand (AOT). https://www.nationthailand.com/lifestyle/travel/40032378

From the BBC website For Chinese tourists in Bangkok, 76 Garage, an open-air restaurant on the northern outskirts of the Thai capital, has long been near the top of the list of places to visit. And they go there not for the food, but the waiters. In the middle of the restaurant is a swimming pool. The evening reaches its highlight when the waiters, all fit young men, strip down to their shorts and wade into the pool, offering to carry the diners for a photo op and a tip. There was a time when 76 Garage was so popular you needed to book a month in advance to get a table. These days half the tables are empty. …

Although health authorities are to be applauded for their proactive stance, they seem to have left out any advice for the other half of target population: boys. From Thailand News Agency The Health Department is urging teenagers to be aware of safe sex practices and the prevention of both pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) as the prevalence of HIV infection among teenagers increases. Dr. Achara Nitiapinyasakul, the acting director-general of the Health Department, revealed that the situation of HIV and STI infections is on the rise among the youth. According to data from the Disease Control Department, it is estimated that in t…

Due to my poor eyesight and bad night vision, I’m finding it difficult to scope out boys in the bars😞 I’ve used Romeo a few times in Thailand and Grindr in the USA. I was curious to know which apps the members here think are best in Bangkok and Pattaya for my upcoming trip. thanks in advance for your thoughts🙏

This is my first trip after I called it quits in the corporate world. I would've made this the trip earlier but didn't want to burn bridges with my ex-employer. Anyway, let's just jump to Day 1. Day 1: Arrived at the airport around noon. There seems to be a VIP in swampy during my arrival as there was a portion that was cordoned off to the public, and a few camera men on standby. Surprised with the paperless immigration process, this is an improvement - at least in the ecological sense. Took the skytrain to the silom area - where my hotel was located and decided to do some fruit shopping in the basement supermarket of silom complex. They no longer give plastic bags f…

Bangkok Guy and I took an apartment together this year and it has worked very well, until now. It came about as he planned to move to a larger apartment close to transport and I am now in Bangkok much more frequently so that an apartment makes financial sense versus hotels. So we combined plans and looked for an apartment that suited us both - higher-end for me and location for him. Looking at options in his preferred area we selected an apartment in a new building with fantastic amenities (required by me not by him, but enjoyed by him all the same) that was over twice as much as he had planned to pay but still a good deal for me compared to a hotel. All h…
