You have got me with that one spoon. I’m not clever enough to think it through. Perhaps I should try AI

Ladyboys mean nothing to me. Guys who fuck ladyboys think they are not gay !

Reminds me of when I was staying at the Classroom hôtel/bar on the edge of BT a couple of years ago. The main entrance to the lift and rooms is through the bar, where, virtually in resident are to be found a ground of elderly expat farangs . After taking boys that way to my room I discovered a door leading directly to the lift lobby which I found a more suitable route when accompanied boy-wise. One night entering that way and whilst standing in the lift lobby with boy, we were joined by a younger guy and a very pretty girl wearing not a lot. He was obviously interested in me+boy and commented “not a bad place” to which I replied “serves its purpose”. The small lift arrived and we four got in with the girl keeping as far as possible away from me. I nearly said “don’t worry I’m gay”, but I didn’t, and the doors opened and the two couples departed to rooms with the guy giving me a smiling “good night.”

Yes Keith I realised it was a joke, but perhaps some of the readership aren’t as smart as me !

I love gay sexual practices but i dont like describing them to str’s

We always have to remember that what we do is sometimes repulsive to many str. I’m sometimes not confortable in hotels with boys surrounded by str couples and families. I’ve had str men ask me about gay sexual practices - which I don’t,like and don’t describe in detail.

Soi Buakhow ? I seldom go there, especially not with boys. It’s full of Brit/Aussie yobs getting drunk,on 40 baht beer, starting at 8am. No gayest bars at all. the Complex is the place to be for gays like me. ive also stayed a few times at the Agate. Their rooms are perhaps nicer than those at the Zing but I don’t get on with their breakfasts, which are too Thai dish orientated.

Yes Kram it is the cool season in Thailand. it’s my hotel of choice because it’s mostly gay this time of year. Always someone to talk to. Good breakfast/

YouTube ? Channel ? Nope! thanks for the info

Returning to the subject of this thread -The Philippines of which my knowledge is very sketchy. Which location would be best from the point of view of the gay scene and most importantly availability of boys ? I rather like the idea of a beach resort with quality accommodation. I have heard mention of Davao and Cebu meeting my specification.

I’ve been trekking in Nepal - wonderful experience in the high mountains. Companionship in lonely tea houses eating mainly fried potatoes and eggs. Did it twice but need to get much fitter to do it again even with porters carrying our gear. Kathmandu like a mini Bkk but no gay bars I’m afraid. I forgot the boys whilst on the trails. Everything cheap but BASIC.

How did you find the Zing Resort. I’ve stayed there a few times . No problem with boys overnight. Very gay friendly

Interesting that this thread has touched on the subject of gay nude beaches. I myself spent several holidays in the resort of Maspalomas on the Spanish island of Gran Canaria during the years 1995 to 1999, before I and a companion discovered Thailand and Asian boys as my favourite gay destination in year 2000. Maspalomas (and I’m told still has ) a vibrant night-life centered on the Yumbo Centre. Flights from the UK taking around 4 hours including accommodation there could be had for around £300, The beach is magnificent, long with large Atlantic waves, warm sea, and backed by a large expanse of sand dunes. During the day gay men (no women) congregated naked around one particular beach section which had chairs and the usual beach facilities, where we cultivated tans and socialised with other vacationers from all over the world. This occasionally developed into flirting and even a “walk” in the dunes, although sometimes you had to beware of the cops, patrolling looking for gays going too far. I don’t remember any commercial sex.

Thinking about YouTube, Pattaya videos started to appear maybe about 10 years ago, but it’s only in the last couple of years that they started featuring the areas favoured by gays like myself ie The Complex, BT and maybe the Dongtan gay Beach. I’ve watched a couple of these taken when I was resident in the subject area, but I don’t appear. I wouldn’t be concerned unless I was featured taking part in activity featuring myself in close intimate proximity with younger boys, but movie makers thankfully seem to avoid this sort of activity. If somebody back home did show me one of these I would be highly embarrassed.

You mention the Jomtien Palm Beach Resort. I stayed there last January for 4 nights when my preferred hotel in the Complex, the Agate was full when I arrived with no reservation, but could offer me a room for the rest of my trip. The Palm Beach is a huge place with impressive facilities , including indoor bowling. I checked on arrival and was told that there would be no problem with me having boy joiners in my room, but it seemed to have mainly Chinese tour party guests, so I would not recommend it for gay single men like you and me. I transferred to the Agate after the 4 nights.

Yes I’ve taken the cheap option of the baht bus, normally from the bus rank at he junction of second road / south pattaya road to virtually outside the Complex. But this often involves waiting at busy times while the baht bus fills up. Not good when you have a hot boy with you !

Over the years during my stays in the Complex, I’ve brought boys back to my hotel (mostly Zing) without problem. For recent visits it’s been Bolt Taxi, but in the past I’ve used motor bike taxis or a rented bike. When Sunee was a popular gay area there was always a waiting bike taxi outside Winner. Not sure I would ride pillion on a boy’s bike ! It would be great if Winner survives and prospers, I loved that Gogo, but that’s another story.

My experience was the same, but it’s at a distance from BT and the Complex. I hired a motor bike when I stayed there. Occasionally boys weren’t keen to go there because of that problem.

The first time I visited tte Sansuck (nearly 20 years ago)I got a tour of the place by the owner, who I think was called Punya, when I had a few questions at reception. He took me around including the guest house. I was much better looking in those days and he started to feel my cock, but I was more interested to see what was going on by the pool and the upper floors. I had lots of fun on that occasion and subsequent visits, twice staying in the guest house, but I’ve not been there for about 2 years. I would be interested in an up to date report.

Nice to see two new bars open in the Complex both with a complement of boys and customers. I’m looking forward to a January/February visit when I’ll be able to check them out. The Complex continues to cement its position as the premier night time vunue for gay men, particularly those like me who enjoy Asian boys.

Nepalese boys in Pattaya ?. My only interaction with Nepalese was 15 years ago when I was part of a 2 week trekking holiday into the high mountains. They carried our bags and generally looked after us on the trail. Tough friendly young guys .

I believe that the Complex Hotels don’t have much availability in the run up to Christmas. I’ve got thoughts about being there during late January . Have any Cambodian boys returned ?

Yes Rob, I would have been anticipating sex and speculating as to the forthcoming experience. I think it would be rather different from my activities with the Laos boys i offed from the Complex bars.

I had a long chat with an older Thai guy when I was seated in a gay section of the Dongtan Beach. During my 18 day stay at the Agate in the Complex I made regular early afternoon visits to the Jomtien Gym on Beach Road and afterwards walking each time to a particular section arriving about 3pm to spend a couple of hours relaxing, sometimes reading and on a couple of occasions chatting to other farangs. On this occasion there were few customers and by 4:30 I was nearly on my own and had dozed off. When I opened my eyes I spotted an 40’s Asian guy stood near the sea. He was rather good looking - slim, brown and rather wiry and was dressed in loose briefs. He saw me looking at him and started strolling slowly along the waters edge but then deviated away from the sea and turned to take a path up the line of chairs to where I was seated, taking uninvited the next one. The section boss appeared but I said “no problem”. We chatted for about 20 minutes cumulating in a proposal from him for us to return to my hotel for sex, mentioning he was versatile and indicating his erect cock under his briefs. Discretion took the better of me and I declined. He just got up and walked away to an adjoining section leaving me to settle my bill and walk back to the Complex, wondering what would have transpired.

The “indoor swimming pool” consists of what could be described as a large bathtub, through which flows a pumped stream of water, against which you can swim. I found this quite amusing but my 2 night boy refused to join me in the water. I stayed there just before Covid - it was fine, but I can’t remember using the restaurent. It was 100% gay.
