payless

I recently went to one of the 2 Healthland massage places in Pattaya. The one on Sukhumvit just a few meters on the left after turning towards Bangkok from Thepprasit. There are just 3 or 4 male masseurs working there and the one who attended me said he did both oil and Thai massage. I had a Thai massage and the cost was 600 Baht in a private room for 2 hours. I think that is their standard price and time-length on offer. It is best to book and the phone numbers are:038-412995 or 095-2069691. I doubt that they would be willing to go beyond massage but their Thai massages are in my opinion the best available. This info. applies at their Pattaya Nua branch apart from the phone numbers.

In my experience government and private enterprises implement dual pricing in a racist practice. The ticket sellers never ask for an Asian to show an i.d. card. I have told some that my companion is Chinese or Cambodian and I am then told, it it does not matter, they have Thai price. "You have farang price".

From about 20 years ago, played in every gogo bar that I visited www.youtube.com/watch?v=Va0vs1fhhNI "Lemon Tree by Fools Garden"

Thanks for the post. it is sick, sad and funny all at the same time. Not so much now but still a sight for sore eyes is the guys on motorbikes (mostly Farang but not all) who wear German replica storm trooper (Sturmtruppen) helmets.

Isn't that a transliteration rather than an organic Thai word. (I am no linguist).

The Thais don't have a word in the Thai language for "Gay" nor is there a Thai word for "Free" So simple logic says that sex that is not between a man and a woman is paid for.

An interesting and insightful speech ttp://www.academia.edu/8591086/Thailands_Twilight_of_the_Gods_Understanding_Thai_Politics_in_the_Interregnum

Aunt and you can call a woman it I must read page 1 b4 I read page 2 next time

Hi Ptya35 Welcome to Thailand which is classified by some institutions as a developing country. Bear that in mind as you look for the perfect PA. Thais like to work in an environment surrounded by people as they are sociable animals by nurture. References are not usually available unless you can contact the previous em[employer by phone. The maid is the easier to find but you will need your PA to help you to communicate with a potential maid. Go to a good hotel fine the head house keeper and offer her a fee to find one for you. You will need to offer social security insurance as well as a premium salary. You might also need to offer accommodation. For the PA there are many job agencies on the net- try these and some dedicated to Pattaya. You might try head hunting Bank staff but for the perfect English then a graduate from an overseas university might a deal-breaker qualification. You might also look to the Indian Community here as many are tri-lingual, Many people chose Thailand for its lack of rules, lack of order, lack of sophistication and for its spontaneity. I think your perfect PA is probably still in the States or wherever.

Thought your post patronizing and out of order Bob, because you did not appear to take in the fact that the 0p observed 'the boy had gone from slim to a bag of bones' over a relatively short time period. It is humanity to care for people and perhaps the poster should raise his concern with the bar owner or appropriate person connected to the bar. There could be many reasons for weight loss easily researched on the internet and of certainly HIV+/AIDS is one them. Since 1984 when AIDS information has been recorded over one million people in Thailand have contracted the HIV virus and more than half of those have died. (I suspect those figures are understated.) If the op can assist in anyway from another adding to the grisly statistics then good. It might weigh on his conscience if he does nothing. I think Bob comparing what kids looked like 10 years ago or whenever is irrelevant to this topic though it might be of interest to some in another topic.

I think your friend's account is probably pretty accurate. I have a lot of contact with Russians and thank their maker that they are here. They certainly have made a lot of people in Pattaya and elsewhere much better off than they would have been had Pattaya had to exist on the dwindling number of Western European visitors. They certainly outspend the Indians and Chinese. The police/immigration might think that the Russians cause the problems but then about 500,000 come to Pattaya each year. I think the Police remain the most dangerous mafia in Thailand.

Thought i would put my post in context:- You can read more at:Geography of sex Published in 2000, the 128 page The Penguin Atlas of Human Sexual Behavior contains a plethora of facts and data about sex and sexuality worldwide. First Encounters Maps in the atlas provide information about the age of first sexual intercourse worldwide for several dozen countries where data was available. For men, the earliest average age of first intercourse is 16 in Brazil, Peru, Kenya, Zambia, Iceland, and Portugal but the highest average age is 19 in Italy. A male in the U.K.'s average age of first intercourse is 18. There are far fewer countries with men's data than women's in the atlas (even the U.S. is missing from the map.) Sexual Intercourse and Contraception According to the atlas, on any given day, sexual intercourse takes place 120 million times on earth. Thus, with 240 million people having sex daily and a world population of just under 6.1 billion (as of 2000), about 4% of the world's population (1 out of every 25 people) is having or had sex today. The country boasting the longest amount time during sexual intercourse is Brazil at 30 minutes. The U.S., Canada, and the U.K. follow with 28, 23, and 21 minutes respectively. The quickest sex in the world takes place in Thailand with 10 minutes and Russia at 12 minutes. Among sexually active 16-45 year olds, the most active countries are Russia, the U.S.A. and France, where people report having sex more than 130 times a year. Sex is least frequent in Hong Kong at under 50 times a year. Modern contraception is most frequently used in China, Australia, Canada, Brazil, and western Europe but least in central Africa and Afghanistan. Condom use is highest in Thailand with 82% of people claiming to always use a condom.

I felt a little hard done by last night after having offed a boy we took a whole 12 minutes to have sex. On par with the many Russians I usually prefer. We had agreed in the bar before we left that he would get 100 Baht a minute for the sex act and so I had to scramble to find the extra money as I only allowed for the average. I was delighted that he proffered the condom as I find that about 8 out of 10 Thai boys use them; higher even than my Russian conquests. I was wondering if any other contributors here have had such a long sex session with a Thai guy or am I setting a record? I know I beat the average from info taken from a year 2000 survey: According to Geography of Sex - A Review of the "The Penguin Atlas of Human Sexual Behavior" by Matt Rosenberg Geaography of sex
