This is true however never say never! Depending on the guy, chemistry etc etc fun can still be had during a Thai massage 😅

Yes, especially if the guy is totally str8 lol. Even with oil massage, towards the end, the masseur will do some thai massage maneuvers, and if your str8 masseur has been keeping his distance before, he wont be able to during this part lol.

Ok, fine. Last few times I had 'proper' Thai massage, masseurs were middle aged ladies, so no fun part!

I had never allow a lady to violate my body lol

That was low key the gameplan. After reading so many of the posts, I dropped by Foodland haha... but only 1 diner. It's OK I've gotta pace myself... I'm here for almost 2 months.  But it's definitely a kid in the candy store life rn.  

You won't see the guys eating alone at Foodland. They eat there with customers. Before they report to work in evenings, you can see them at roadside stalls along Surawong Road.

Yeah at 2:30am there was literally one person dining at Foodland.  But the scenery of the clubbers leaving DJ Station was off the chart. So many hotties. Looking forward to tonight.  Goodboys I think is the plan.  I've still only been to Fresh.

- Muy Thai live suggestions anyone? I might go to one Sunday that's big.
 

 For a nice muay Thai experience, book a ticket for a SATURDAY visit in Rajadamnern Muay Thai Stadium. Saturdays are when big fights are held and mostly the fights that is broadcasted online. Oh and every Saturday, they have free-floating LEO beer for everyone.

Thank you. Looked it up and looks like the next big one is a week from tonight. I might do that!  Have you been to the Sunday one that's apparently near a popular market. (That probably doesn't help much.)

Update: I think this is it... "Every Sunday at Channel 7 Studios in Bangkok there are about 4 or 5 bouts of Muay Thai. The fights begin at 2:30 p.m., although sometimes the schedule varies a bit according to live broadcasting tv schedule. In any case, it is advisable to go well in advance to secure admission. Watching the show standing up is free, or you can get a ring-side seat for THB 300. To get to the studios, you must go to Mo Chit Skytrain station, and then walk 10-15 minutes or take a motorcycle taxi (bikers with an orange bib). Tell the driver that you want to go to Channel 7 to watch Muay Thai. In case of verbal communication problems, just make a boxing gesture and he will understand. The short ride should cost 10 or 20 THB."

Ohhh I haven't been there yet.

The one I watched in Rajadamnern started 7pm until midnight. Though I only stayed till 9pm as I already had my fill of the fights and of almost a gallon of beer had there 🤣🤣. It was fun and high energy is very infectious there. I remember mostly Westerners are on the audience. They also have this laser projection on the ceiling of the stadium too.

During late December and early January (white party period) the amount of eye candy at least quadruples compared to low season now.

Thats what I’m afraid of.  This place might retire my passport.

Amazing how many are so drunk out of their minds.... but then again, DJ Station and G.O.D. use adulterated alcohol in my experience that combined with I've never met an Asian that can hold their booze, lol

I used to pick up guys there at that hour, but after quite a few limp noodles and falling sound asleep as soon as they hit the mattress... I concentrated on guys that looked like hustlers on that strip of Silom between DJ and Soi 4 instead. Not always something, but sometimes yes.

Exactly. And the gamble is half the fun!  I wasn't even particularly horny last night, but when in Rome... errr Bangkok. Roll the dice see what happens.
