some people may not believe in American cultural supremacy and very idea of giving money to somebody for doing his job may be very foreign / Japanese , most Pacific islanders and countless others including local Thais /. Not every Cheap Charlie is actually one.

almost the same here. I tip waiter 20 baht per trip to my seat. He brings me drink , it's 20 , he brings drink to boy I invited 20 minutes later, another 20. But when I order another round for both me and boy or I'm visiting bar with somebody and drinks are on me , it will be still 20 , even if he actually brings 2 drinks. If waiter taking order is the same who is bringing it , money will land in his palm. If that's different guy, money will go to the folder. Almost religiously I try to have always exact change so there's no misunderstanding. Mamasans generally are not getting tip unless I enlisted their help or are actually providing nice conversation which sometimes happens, again , usually with ones who recognize me from before, then it's 50-100. If they want more usually I ask ' can I see your cock"

every 7/11 or family Mart will carry those prominently displayed by the cash registers, no need to look for pharmacy, plenty of those as well. In Silom / Patpong / Suriwiong area this is last of your worries and absolutely no need to be shy , they saw it all , most likely in the last 15 minutes

welcome to the forum !

if he is your friend try to talk him out of it before it will become too late and friendship will be over among other things

and not only one can see but for small consideration inspection is available.

You got that right !

don't you have some Black Friday shopping to do ?

that's whole point, see first , talk later

answer is in your own original post

I may be there too. I don't discriminate in last few years offed their boys st least 4 times , 3 out of those LT. Results? Kind of mixed but rather on positive side

you just made my day, thank you

yes back in 1992 or 93 underscored part is one I don't like and hope nobody who uses credit card in bar will see one day a banner across the computer screen " Hot Male boy bar has naked night on Wednesday, we are waiting for you", all when his grandson or sister is looking on.

we only can wish them luck in new formula it means one more free chair for those who will do

When was last time you actually were in Moonlight or Tawan ? anyways, what is so hard to believe ? Anybody who is sitting in say , Maxi for more than 15 minutes between 10-11 p.m. will for sure see customer salivating and proudly marching with guy we would not even gave second glance , whatever our preferences are . And hundreds are walking with beautiful girls none of us wants. likes , desires , find hot , sexy , sensual etc. I'm pretty sure that whatever your favorite type is you still find plenty specimens of that type you will not want , like....

My card was blocked not because I was travelling but because bank's system "thought" that I made purchase qualifying as ' unusual activity ' in their opinion. Not that easy to straighten out in the days before smartphones at 10 p.m. in relatively unknown place when one couldn't phone because did not have a cash and couldn't pay with card because she was blocked. No , I'm not leaving my vacation fun to decision of some cold algorithm or malfunction of power supply while I'm thousands kilometers away. Yes cash can be stolen . As strong believer of not keeping all eggs in one basket I'm happy to take a risk.

if you said " a recent story from that idiot vinapu about arriving without an ATM card" I'd not take any offense , yes it was me To all those planning on using credit cards in bars I wish heartfelt good luck

this is precisely why I almost never use credit cards when I'm travelling. Learned my lesson many years ago when I was stuck in Montreal, Canada without cash and with blocked credit card and only kindness of strangers took me to the airport and even treated me with some sandwich. Never again. Cash is the king and my best friend when travelling. What is better than wad of banknotes ? Two wads of banknotes

Christian, have mercy. That is the question I sometimes ask myself when reading about your adventures in BFC / boy friend candidate / hunting.

of course it is. After all it's guys , all, twinks , hunks and all between and only them who really know their market value and what market pays them. we can observe only that much when visiting bars, unless one camps in the bar night after night , from opening to closing, we have only vague idea of how often buys are offed and really nothing of how much those offs are generating for them. Boy may be sitting with 5 customers over the night and treated with 5 drinks but may be tipped for his efforts pretty stingy, like 20 baht a sitting , another one seems abandoned and glued to his phone but client who was sitting with him perhaps 5 minutes could leave him 500 baht as a tip.

no harm done, it may feel awkward but places and guys are used to it , I witnessed it many times and never noticed any nasty grimaces or comments, . maybe just ' him no like" or " him shy". Best excuse , if somebody needs one is to pat yourself on empty pocket and say ' I forgot money" - that part everybody will understand.

I think you hit the nail !

I actually considered massages as short time offs in my responses

that's typical to many massage places- websites are outdated and showing many boys long gone and not showing those actually working. For umpteenth time the same advice from me - go and see for yourself

actually , surprisingly perhaps even to myself my votes are in the mainstream in almost all categories, I must start becoming more generous
