Since so many of you are posting about your Asia destination here, I'd like to take this opportunity to ask for your advice. I'm planning my FIRST trip to (East) Asia. I've always gone to South America before because I simply love the Brazilian and Colombian muscle tops, and the saunas in Brazil and Colombia are so incredibly easygoing... I'm a bottom and I'm just really into masculine tops.

But lately, I've realized that I also find muscular Asians quite attractive. On RentMen, I find many muscular Asians that I find appealing.

may I ask you for your advice: Which Asian country would you recommend for me as a first stop – considering tourist infrastructure, the diversity of the landscape and places, and of course, also with regard to (paid) sex? I'm at an age where I'm willing to pay for good-looking guys. But I don't need a companion or anything like that. 

Considering all the variables, I would give Taipei a chance

I'm planning a trip there for early May, my first time in the Philippines and planning to stay in Makati.

I'm wondering if there are gogo bars of similar concept to maybe Space Hair Salon in Phnom Penh or the gogo bars in Thailand. From what I can find online, there's one bar in Quezon City called The One 690, but not much info on how things go with the guys etc.

If anyone has experience to appreciate, would appreciate it 🙏.

I go to the Philippines almost every year and visit my favourite gogo bar called White Bird in Baclaran, which is closer to Makati. There are actually three gay bars in that area too; Machete (unattractive go-go boys, weird sitting arrangement, I left after watching one dance number) and Apollo (a very sexy Filipino go-go boy opened the show, the music is blaring very uncomfortable, big gap between each dancer, I left after seeing two other dancers who were not attractive). I prefer the White Bird. They have plenty of cute guys, very good rotation of dancers, some of them would get off the stage to get your tip (PHP100 is acceptable) that you can stuff in their briefs, and while you're there feel free to cup a feel, they won't mind. There will be 'floor manager' that would pimp you one or two boys to sit with you. DON'T. Because once the boys are sitting with you, you're not allowed to touch them and they will remind you. You can only talk to them, and they are not good conversationalist. They would make money off you by ordering food and drinks and they would pick the most expensive ones on the menu because they get 25% commission from that. But there is an exciting part of the show where 6 to 10 'talents' would come out of the stage fully naked with a raging hard on. They would then get off the stage and approach each one of the audiences for tips. Make sure you have plenty of PHP100, because that's how much I give each of them. Some will ask for more and if you like the guy, you can give him more. And if you like to get to know him more, this is the best time to tell him that you're interested and would like for him to join you on your table. Or you can tell the floor manager who you like and she will get him to join you. These guys are usually 'game' and happy for you to fiddle with them but you have to move to a booth located on the right side of the bar. There's another one located in the back and if it's free, I'd go there with my go-go boy, if i were you. You can freely do whatever you like but discuss with him first. When I was with my talent, he agreed for me to blow him for PHP2000 but he didn't cum but that's ok with me because he let me kiss him in the mouth too and that was hot!

The other thing i like about White Bird is that they have masseurs walking around looking for business. When I go there I always treat myself a 30 mins back/neck/head/arms massage for PHP100.

If it's your first visit, then maybe you need to have a week in Bangkok in an area called Silom where the gay area is. There are many gay Saunas in Bangkok also that you could try.

Then a 2 hour bus journey further south to Pattaya to visit Boyz Town and 15 minutes short bus ride is Jomtien where there is a gay complex of dozens of bars. There is also a nice gay sauna called Sansuk which is quite good.

I'd recommend staying in Jomtien, not Pattaya as it's more laid back and a nice gay beach. 

A good hotel is the Agate Boutique Hotel which is right in the middle of the gay area but quiet inside.

Good luck 👍

Yep, heading back again in September. A few nights in Manila, a week or two in Davao and a week in Siargao ( the trying to be Bali of the Ph's).  I think i'm looking forward to it but not quite sure yet as could do without the horrendous flights either way from Europe. 😞

A lot of news and tiktok vids of a certain nationality causing anti social behaviour in Siargao, have no idea if it's true and I certainly won't be saying the Country it's alleged they are from 🇮🇱, ....oh don't be racist !!

Yeah I've noticed those same videos and actually the more I look at the place in general I'm thinking of taking myself to the outskirts just IF AT ALL even as its starting to look just a little bit TOO much of a backpacker vibe for my liking ( including the people you were speaking of there too and their current besties across the pond as well perhaps)

Mind you....it could be 😊 FUN.

If your "young at 💜 Heart " so to speak and can get along with younger people including those from other countries eg Israel 🇮🇱,then go for it 

I'm sure not all are bad ,it's like many say the🇮🇪 Irish☘️ backpackers🍾🍷 are trouble 🥊🇦🇺,

im sure it's only a minority of all backpackers and we were ALL young once..m.so if you are non judgmental and chilled 🥶out type of guy then it could be ...fun... and might even meet a few backpackers for ...🍆🍑

Yeah in general I agree with you however as a lot of video's are showing said backpackers "skateboarding" down the only main road in the place I'm guessing no matter how chilled I may be I'm not THAT chilled anymore and would worry more about breaking a hip than getting laid if I was to try it ;-)

i also would disagree with you re Irish backpackers as you rarely hear a bad word said about them as most have good manners and enjoy a laugh. And as for maybe GETTING laid as I'm visiting there with my Ph's BF all I can say to that is that "chance would be a fine thing!" lol
