Any tips for Bangkok??

[Louis]

Hi everyone, I'm sorry if this is inappropriate topic but I’m planning a trip to Thailand soon and I’m looking for some guidance. This will be my first time booking a male escort, and I’m feeling a little anxious about the process.

 

I’m specifically looking for one night stand because I’m not interested in the spa, sauna, massage, or bar scenes. I'm just looking to find a cute, professional guy to have a fun night with in a private setting.

 

My main priorities are safety and a strictly safe-sex-only experience.

 

Does anyone have recommendations for reliable websites or platforms used in Thailand to find independent providers?

 

For a first-timer, how do you usually verify that a provider is real and professional?

 

Any tips for ensuring a smooth, stress-free night would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks so much for the help!

Hi, welcome to the forum

 

 as for first timer your goal is too ambitious. Why comb platforms like Grindr, Hesay, Romeo etc in country where whole business is so well developed and organized ? 

With internet hookup there's always possibility that who you saw on screen  is not who  knocks to your door - not necessarily bad thing but that's beside the point.

go to bar or massage venue where you have at least a chance to see and talk  with who you will be engaging.

as for safety , you are in good place as for safe -sex ,  your companion is likely interested in it as much as you are if not more

Like @vinapusaid, you’re in the candy store, why not pick and choose what you like in front of you?  Why insist on order something you cannot see, touch and feel?  If you insist on website or platform, I recommend Rentmen, I think they have more legit provider, pick a provider with many positive reviews and you shouldn’t have any issues.  RM is also more expensive in general than other platforms.  Good luck and Happy hunting!

I've always had good service from Grindr,  though I may have been lucky! As @vinapu says, however, there is a lot to be said for inspecting the goods in person. If in a go go bar, 100 Baht, what @vinapucalls a red note, will often enable a thorough examination on site!

Hi Louis! Welcome to the forum.  I can understand your anxiety and don't find your "goal too ambitious". The fact that you're putting yourself out there may encourage others to do the same.

I haven't used any but I've heard from friends that there are professional escort agencies out there with their own websites. The quality of services, as is in the nature of this business, varies, and prices tend to be higher than hiring a sex worker off the hook-up sites such as Grind'r. There is no scoring system or official reviews as far as I know as this is not how people primarily hire sex workers in Thailand's highly established commercial sex industry.

As for safety, take the same precautions as you would any random meeting from the web: video call to verify their identity and meet in a public place to suss them out. Don't worry; nobody's going to notice. This sorta thing is very common in any big city in Thailand.

I can totally understand it if you do not want to partake in the overt commercial sex scenes in Patpong and Pattaya; they're not for everybody. While there are plenty of crusty prostitutes, not everybody is a seasoned punter or wishes to be one! 😅 We all come from different backgrounds with different sensibilities and levels of comfort when it comes to trying out new things.

That said, may I suggest you start off by going people watching in Silom Soi 4 and getting your feet wet a little, so to speak. Go earlier in the evening to, say, The Balcony, before it gets too busy and the waiters won't have time to chat with you. Soak in the atmosphere and if you find it all too overwhelming, leave. No biggy.

And when you feel a bit more comfortable, take in a show at one of the busier show bars in Bangkok such as Freshboys where you can get lost in the crowd. Just don't tell anyone you're a newbie and ward off bothersome mama-sans by telling them you're there to watch the show. 

You may stick to your original plan of hiring an escort from an agency or you could dip your toes a little in the glitzier manifestations of the commercial sex industry. There is no right or wrong. Will you feel you've made a mistake or an awkward mis-step at some point? Sure, who hasn't? Just learn from them...or shrug them off...before trying again.

Good luck and have fun!
