Bangkok Report - Starting 2026 Right

[Shax]

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share my experience on a recent trip with the bars and massage places:

Part 1/2

Moonlight - visited purely because of nostalgia. The bar is pretty much dead on a Friday night. There were only 3 customers including me, with probably less than 10 guys on rotation, mostly the "boy next-door" type. Didn't stay for the show but had a good chat with the other 2 customers before leaving.

Total cost: THB 500

Dreamboys - I went here twice, once during a weekend and the 2nd time on a weekday. Out of all the bars I went to, they probably have the most guys on rotation, with a wide range of variety on types.

On my 1st visit here, it seemed like there were more customers compared to the other bars I visited over the weekend but I didn't off anyone. Had one of the muscle guys sit with me for a drink and chat, but he was so stiff that I decided to end my visit there earlier. Paid my tab for the drinks and tipped the guy for his time.

Total cost: THB 1300 (with the tips to boy+mamasan)

On the 2nd visit to the bar, I offed a cute lean guy from Vietnam I recognized from Freshboys, a pure top straight guy. In summary, it was a bad experience for me and probably would never take him out again.

While at the bar, I told him that I was not in the mood for a fuck and just wanted some vanilla, side fun (Google translated for him the exact things I was looking to do since he speaks limited English) and he confirmed that he was ok to do them all. He was also quite touchy at the bar, which I thought was a good indication.

But once at the room, he went and showered on his own, got on the bed and asked if he could watch straight porn on his phone. I don't mind so much if the boy has to do that when he is close to finishing (I understand he is straight) but this is way too early at the start (and this is also the first time in all my offs that a guy asked to watch porn on his phone 😅). What made it worse was that most of the things he said he could do (like kissing etc), he ended up not being able to do at all or did some half-hearted attempt with heavy reluctance. I tried pulling him away from his phone a couple of times to actually have some physical activity other than me giving him a blowjob or him jerking off, but finally gave up (and lost my mood to continue with the session).

He eventually came after masturbating to porn and asked if I wanted to finish too 🤣. I said no and just went to clean up. He awkwardly joined me in the shower but we ended up cleaning ourselves separately. I think he sensed I wasn't happy but I still tipped him what I originally planned to.

All in all, I basically paid to give him a blowjob and watched him masturbate 🤣.

Total costs - THB 1650 (my drink + boy's drink + off fee+ tips for mamasan and another cute guy) + THB 3000 tips (sure, I could've paid lower but I was too pissed and tired to really care).

Than Tawan - I went here twice, once during the weekend and the 2nd time during a weekday. Hired 2 guys here. They have a bigger selection of guys now as the Atlas boys are now here too.

The first guy I offed was a slim fit Myanmar guy (happened to be his last day too). He is not the type that I would typically go for but he was cute, in a rugged, twinkish, bad boy next-door kinda way 🤣. He was a pleasant guy though, friendly and did everything I wanted. I had a good time with him.

Total costs - THB 1800 (2 drinks + off-fee, and yes the off fee that weekend was THB 800) + THB 3000 tips (yes, the off-fee was THB 800 on a weekend)

The 2nd was my regular muscle guy, so all good with him as he already knows what I like.

Total costs - THB 1500 (2 drinks + off fee) + THB 3000 tips

Just an observation on Than Tawan - I was surprised at how pushy the mamasans (and some of the boys) of Than Tawan have become, unlike how Tawan (or even the One) used to be. Almost all of the mamasans (and even the doorman) came asking for tips/drinks for themselves (without really doing much). Some mamasans pushed customers to tip the boys performing (even when the customers declined the boys offer to touch their dicks/ass). I saw a few unfortunate tourists who were surprised by having to tip when they received unsolicited lap dances that they were visibly not comfortable with 🤣.

Shax, thx for the well-organized report.

With ur permission, a challenge: why tip a guy who doesnt deliver on his promises?

It does allow you to end the encounter in the quickest, cleanest way. I’m sure he just wanted things to be over.

Yes, tip him but not the full amount although I have a feeling a more assertive Thai customer would have just kicked him out. The Vietnamese guy was clearly toying with @Shax and was setting him up to reel him in by being warm and friendly at the bar and not delivering on what was agreed upon later. Why even go "off" with a man if you need to watch straight porn to turn yourself on which is not only off-putting but rude? Couldn't he have just used his imagination? He's probably done it dozens of times before and was confident he'd get away with it and he did. They're working illegally in Thailand on a visa exemption, they don't speak Thai or English and they don't even want to do the work they promised. The gall. Locum doctors and dentists get about 3,000 Baht for an evening's work at a suburban clinic and they actually have to DO the work for three hours.

I suspect I know who the guy is. A very chiselled guy indeed. He was reviewed here before while at FB and the client came within 5 minutes and was very happy. 

As a risk mitigating measure I usually off gay guys for side fun. However, I know this topic is very divisive on this forum.
