FH, I respect that. I'll just bring up my friend LetMeTellYou and one of this favorite 2 words: Super Star

 

 

I have looked far and wide on GR and I have yet to find anyone from photos that I would consider a Super Star. SilverDaddies is not a site I would visit so I don't know it. And, you are right, Fridae is not a site I visit either. You knowledge in these areas is much greater than mine and we all come to this from our own experiences. I consider GR like Craig's List in the USA. Sometimes you get what you want and sometimes you don't. I found one stunner from LA on my last trip. He was a Japanese surfer boy from a wealthy family. He didn't need money. But, he was looking for it and I did give him taxi money (150 USD) for each visit. He kept coming back for more for at least a year. I loved the sex with him. But, I would not even call him a Super Star.

Here I have to disagree with my good friend Michael.  First we all have to acknowledge we each have different standards for what we consider a super star.

 

 

Perhaps Michael's definition of a super star is someone that he has never found in the Bars or online in all of Thailand

 

I have posted photos of  Original_Bangkok from Gayromeo and I can personally attest he is even better looking then the photos. He is not even close to the only one I have been with and all from Gayromeo.

 

 

If he is not a Super Star then I don't know what is .  It is completely unfair to compare photos on Gayromeo with model photos etc that have been photo shopped and air brushed under perfect lighting conditions.

 

If this is what Michael refers to as a Super star then that person is not available to any of us unless of course we have the bank account of Donald Trump.

 

To compare Gayromeo with Craigs List is just ridiculous.  I can find 10 x as many attractive boys (IMHO) in 10 minutes as I can on Craigs List in 10 days.  

 

And come on Michael you saying you have looked far and wide on Gayromeo is equally ridiculous.  I spend more time on Gayromeo in 1 week then you have in your whole life.

 

FH is right there are many boys especially in BKK that do not want money or even taxi fare.  They are mostly boys next door types who can be very attractive especially to an old fart like me.

 

However they usually require a little romancing , something I have no time for in 1 week visit so  find the boys who need money quite acceptable.

 

I certainly would not be posting information on any of those type boys.  The posts about Gayromeo Boys should be strictly for money boys.

 

In Pattaya 90% of the boys on Gayromeo are money boys .  BKK that % is much lower .

Superstar

In your opinion.  He looks like he needs a few good meals and a surgeon to fix his ears and even then his face would be soso at best!  He also needs a new hairdresser!!!!  LOL

Now this previous posted photo in this thread would be my definition of a SuperStar!!

In your opinion.  He looks like he needs a few good meals and a surgeon to fix his ears and even then his face would be soso at best!    LOL

He is a manly boy! Alpha. Hot. Sexy. SUPERSTAR. My opinion and the millions of others. Great singer. Great dancer. Great sex (dream last night).

It must have been the pizza?? No wait a minute there were no LEFT OVERS!!!!!

It must have been the pizza??

I am not in Cambodia!

Are you sure?

Are you sure?

Trust me. If I had a special pizza in Cambodia, I would know it! Or, maybe I would? ? ?

Really? So, it is the indexing by Google you have a problem with? I don't see that as an issue.

 

you may not be concerned about who knows your sexual orientation or even your sexual exploits but not everyone is in the same position, and in Thailand there is one important word to remember - FACE!

 

why do most upcountry guys in the sex trade in Bangkok and Pattaya still maintain the facade that they work in a restaurant when the whole family and the whole village know they are selling their body? FACE - if it in not exposed publicly then you don't loose face!

 

when do so many guys working at go-go bars and massage places not want their pictures on the venue web site? FACE - because their friends and family will not stumble on them in the venue but may on the Internet

 

why do so many profiles on Romeo not include a face pic? because until they trust someone enough they are not willing to reveal identifying information

 

and for others on Romeo they perhaps feel safe in a "closed" environment where people who log in are (probably) gay, but they are still not comfortable with the customer taking other pictures during the "act" etc because these may end up on the Internet!

 

but now people here want to copy the Romeo info to an open (google searchable) openly gay web site with identifying pictures and a rating on a scale of 1-10 on how good they are at selling their body and you don't see this as an issue?

 

even if we are not willing to consider showing some respect for these pieces of meat - sorry human beings - at least can we show some sensitivity to local customs like face?

 

OK - I was castigated for expressing similar ideas on another thread here about drooling over posted pictures of guys from Dongtan beach here (no expectation of privacy in a public place, I was the only one identifying the beach as a gay beach etc) so I don't know why I am wasting my time here again!

 

and interestingly how may of you would be comfortable with a Thai site by the Romeo and go-go guys posting pictures of you and details from your Romeo profile with a 1-10 rating of how good you were at sex and how stingy you were with tips or how much of an easy mark you were for "buffalo died" stories?

Thanks firecat69. Michael seems to think I make up what I say about non-commercial guys on gayromeo. I suspect that if one believes every young guy interested in meeting an older farang is primarily looking for cash, then that's precisely what you will find.

 

And thanks again firecat because you raised an important point I should have included in my post. The non-commercial guys generally require more chat before you get near a meet. Some locals and many tourists won't have that time. So for them, the commercial scene fits the bill.

 

But I have been delighted to have met quite a few non-commercial guys. Last year, I spent the better part of 2 weeks with a guy with his own business in Thonglor. He didn't want even taxi money - because he had his own car! He drove me around! Yes, I did buy one rather nice dinner. But thereafter he insisted on splitting the bill.

 

So it really does make me quite angry when people lay down the law according to their experience and assuming it therefore covers everyone's experience, the more so when stating categorically –

 

"I do not believe the a 20 year old Thai will want to have sex with a 40-70 year old often out of shape farang unless there is something in it for him. I don't think the enjoyment of sex is the reason."

 

You are wrong! And it has nothing to do whether a farang is a 'man of the world' or a tourist staying in the cheapest guesthouse. As you have rather hinted, perhaps you have spent too much time in the commercial side of the business!! 

Michael seems to think I make up what I say about non-commercial guys on gayromeo.

Not at all. That never once crossed my mind. I hope that is not what you thought of my responses.

 

"I do not believe that a 20 year old Thai will want to have sex with a 40-70 year old often out of shape farang unless there is something in it for him. I don't think the enjoyment of sex is the reason."

Sorry, I still believe that for the majority. There are always exceptions to every rule.

 

As you have rather hinted, perhaps you have spent too much time in the commercial side of the business!!

Sorry, if I hinted. Let me state point blank, that I have spent a great deal of time in the commercial side of the business. Perhaps that gives me a bit more insight than others. Perhaps it does not.

"bkkguy"

These arguments are mostly ridiculous at least for Thai boys.  I just searched Pattaya 18-24 online (at prime time)  .  There were 67 boys with photos and   Zero boys with out photos.  The very few that you might find with out a photo , will quickly send one if asked.

 

Really only farangs that have profiles without photos  and they won't be getting reviewed.

 

In addition this is how the overwhelming number of boys survive so if a positive review gets them more customers , I am sure they will be quite happy.

 

Boys who get a bad review in most cases will be because of misrepresentation.  In other words not the boy in the photo or considerably older then photos.

 

I resolve that particular problem by telling the boy if he shows at the door and does not look like the pics, he will be sent away with nothing.

 

There will be some who are not willing to do what was agreed and they do not warrant any protection.

 

Your arguments about GoGo boys also do not hold water . This forum is meant to be for boys on GayRomeo only.  If they do not have a name and profile number then no review will be allowed.

 

Also this Forum is to be for boys on GayRomeo where money was involved.  No one should make any post of boys who gave away their favors. This is between the 2 people involved.

Anyone posting their photo in their Gay Romeo profile can delete it any time they choose.

 

Here they can merely ask for it to be deleted, if they can figure out who to ask. 

 

Although people posting photos on Gay Romeo should realise it's at risk, I think it would be better if GayRomeo photos posted here were only visible to members

Although people posting photos on Gay Romeo should realise it's at risk, I think it would be better if GayRomeo photos posted here were only visible to members

All photos that are attached to posts are visible only to logged in members. I do believe this has been set since the beginning of the board and I hope that is not changed. I just tested this and can't see photos when I am logged out.

 

Now, the exception to this is if you insert the photo via a hyperlink. For example, you like the image to the post by using the url to have the image shown in the thread. I have not done that is years so I am not sure if that still works but I think it does. However, I don't think you can do that with images at GayRomeo.

Sorry, I still believe that for the majority. There are always exceptions to every rule.

 

To be fair, you did not add that qualification in your earlier post. But I still take issue with the second sentence. As it is commonly used, an exception generally implies just that - "one" exception. As firecat seemingly agrees, of the roughly 22,500 profiles in the Bangkok and vicinities section of gayromeo, I'll bet that a fair number of these are non-commercial guys. A minority, I grant you - and probably a considerable minority. But still a number that in my estimation is way, way over 30%.

Good try.

 

Early on in this thread I said: "And, while there are many guys that are not money boys on the site, the vast majority of the users that go Farang to Thai guy, use it in the same way they use the bars."

 

Also, I said Exceptions with an S at the end. It is true as you say that an exception may mean one. But, when you add an s to the end of exception and make it exceptions, in every definition I know of that means more than one.

 

I have also agreed with you that there are a fair number that are non-commercial. But, I would only agree to that if I added that most of those guys are looking for similar age experiences as opposed to multi-generational experiences.

 

So, I'll take your 30% that are not looking for commercial. I'll have to take away 70 percent of those that look for similar age experience. Thus, we have now determined that about 4725 profiles in Bangkok are looking for non commercial and non similar age experiences. And, I also wonder how many are actually foreign. If we estimate that 3000 of them are foreigners, that leaves us about 1725. Then, if we take away those Thai profiles that are over 40, we have about 870 left. Of those 870, 300 have not logged on this year. That now leaves us with 570. Of those, most of us would not be attracted to 400 of them. That leaves us now with 170. Of those, 100 are looking for monogamous relationships. We now have 70. I venture to say, we would have better luck walking out the front door of a hotel and finding 70 people that we can try to date. (yes, before anyone says my numbers are off, I'd say, "really?")

HaHaHa.  I love Michael but since he really knows so little about GayRomeo , let me enlighten him that any search on Gayromeo of more then 600 profiles will come back as that exceeds 600 and no definitive number will be given .  

 

Therefore he just made up all those figures.  But thats ok because eventually you will find the 257th Love of your Life on Gayromeo with no baht involved.   LOL!!!!!

 

Just promise you will tell us????

ha.

 

I used numbers based on your initial number of gayromeo profiles in Bangkok. I then used the best scientific data available to mankind to analyze the data. That is what scientists do Firecat! I realize I know as much about gayromeo as you do about scientific interpretation, but be that as it may, I stand by my analysis. And, yes, I also work for the Republican party analyzing data so I know how to interpret data.

A promise in vain I suspect   After all, Michael does not need to go on gayromeo. He has his boys on whom he dotes and who dote on him.

 

I also agree the math above is just the product of a very fertile but not very experienced imagination (I hasten to add, though, experienced only insofaras gayromeo is concerned - take in other experiences and dear Michael probably outstrips the rest of us by a country mile   ). If anyone thinks that 3000 out of 4275 profiles in the BKK section are foreigners, there's no hope for rational argument    I'd be hard put to find 300!

 

Oops, but then this is of course not a rational discussion. We're all using our own estimates with no way of proving them. So let's just agree that non-commercial gay romeo guys (of which there are many   )will not be included in this thread once it gets really up and running.

 

Oh, what fun we are having!

I agree! Finally, resolution!

But please, after the name/profile number, can we have the location? It will save some looking it up unnecessarily.

Last night I logged out & could still view the photos.  However, the more robust test of opening the site on a different browser without logging in does indeed show non-logged in people cannot view the pics.  Which is good.

 

As for working boys, GR Pattaya seems to have a very high percentage.   However, during the admittedly small amount of time I spend on GR in Bangkok, I only ever seem to find people interested in long term relationships or people of their own age.  

2. We do not want photos that are nude in the threads if they show the cock, however, other photos are encouraged.

Good to see clarification on where we draw the line with nudity.

I presume rearward shots that show some testicle, but not the cock are OK?
