PDA

View Full Version : New perspective on Thailand



May 10th, 2010, 19:49
Hi everyone..
as the name says, total newbie here, the basics: italian just turned 30yo but i still get away with my claim of being 25!

i've been reading the posts for quite some time and decided to jump in..
i just returned from my 5th travel to Thailand and as odd as it may sound to some people i've never had a sensual massage nor have i ever walked into a gogo bar.. simply because i never had the chance as i was always travelling with other people..

during this last trip i accidentally met a Thai guy at a minimart in a secluded area of Phuket.. he was strikingly handsome, air asia flight attendant from BKK, 2 minutes after greeting we were having a quickie in the toilet of the resort he was staying at.. it left me wanting more..much more

upon return to Italy I decided it is about time I visit Thailand on my own.. started reading forums all over the net and I planned a 3 week trip starting the last week of july.
First of all will get my fix for Arabs in Bahrain and then get to BKK. I still need to decide if I wanna do Pattaya as well (never been)

I'm just a regular guy but I can be very shy at first so I'm somewhat skeptical about this whole adventure.. though my hunger for sex has always gotten me over my shyness and has pushed me way beyond unthinkable limits, especially in the Arab countries where things aren't as easily accessible..

I hope I can make some new friends here, learn from your experiences and maybe meet someone for a beer once I'm in Thailand..
Leo

welcome leo,
it is a joy to see a newbie who really is a newbie and not just one of the repeat offenders back again for their 15 minutes of wasting our time with endless streams of nonsense.
but, I digress..

some of us would be interested in hearing about the Arab scene you mentioned and if
those past their prime (way past in most cases) would be able to participate.. you write better than many native speakers/writers here and some will find it hard to believe you
are Italian as many are not truthful and actually fabricate..

You will find most of the posters here and the expats are much older than yourself
but full of fun and desire.. if you are into old guys, you will find many takers.. :hello2:

May 10th, 2010, 20:38
Thanks for your very warm welcome! I truly appreciate it!

I didn't want to waste too much of people's time by talking too much about myself but since you brought it up..I've always travelled extensively and enjoy knowing people from different places and backgrounds.. that keeps me from being/becoming one of the many close minded Italians who eat Pizza and Pasta anywhere they travel to.. ;)
It helps that I spent many years studying abroad including Canada where I attended University (of Toronto) where some professors too told me I write better English than most natives lol

Anyways, I am rather open minded when it comes to people I like to hang out with.. I seem to connect well with older guys because most people my age are fairly shallow and lack interests and hobbies. Living in a fashionable city like Milan doesn't really help lol
I am an avid Opera listener and unfortunately it is an art that doesn't really draw many youngsters.. so I am accustomed to hanging out with older guys.. besides, I love anyone who can teach me things I don't know of and make me a better/wiser person..
Sexually speaking, I've never been with anyone older than 35/40 but never say never..

Arabs.. well, wow, they drive me crazy! Mainly because my biggest turn on is straight guys.. and in countries like Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria there are loads of "gay for pay" straight guys.. in 95% of my experiences they are all tops.. they will go mental if you even touch their ass accidentally.. and they will not touch you at all..
They are the true essence of manhood, no frils.

I am senior member in a forum not so different from this one which is completely dedicated to Arab men.. I post there many of tips, stories and summaries of my trips to Arab/Muslim countries but I don't know about your policies here about sharing links.. I can tell you in pvt if you want..

May 10th, 2010, 21:26
thank you for all the great suggestions just a moment!

over the past days i've been reading another blog with lots of reviews of gogo bars and massage parlours.. especially in BKK..
I know I wanna visit Hero and Albury massage for sure.. and I indeed read good things about Tawan.. you're a good guesser.. I love muscular guys..
skinny guys and more feminine looking guys, though I deeply respect, aren't my cup of tea!

As you said, it's very easy to get sex in Arab countries, the thing is that it is VERY dangerous.. To be fair, the first time I visited Marrakech/Morocco I felt like I was in a porn movie.. I had cocks coming my way from every angle.. some say it's because I'm youngish, some say it's because I'm blondish, some say it's because I'm ok looking.. regardless, I had to rush back to my hotel around 9.30pm because I was exhausted from handling and servicing so many guys lol

One thing I must make clear, I didn't meet the flight attendant in a toilet where I was cruising for sex... I met him at outside a drugmart in Phuket where he was staying a couple days for crew change.. my travel companions were having a massage and I was waiting for them.. he wanted me to go to his room but I only had 20 spare minutes so to avoid wasting time reaching his room we got into the lobby restroom of the resort...

I am still unsure about the right approach though.. being used to Arabs I know what to do and expect and I know how to whip their assed back into shape when they freak out..
I know there's loads of passive guys in Thailand and I don't wanna find myself with a masseur who can't get it hard or whose idea of "happy ending" is wanking me and then buh bye.. my idea is I wank him/blow him and then buh bye..
Also, offing a guy, I get the idea. You pay a bar fee and then you pay him ok. Fixed prices or bargaining as with Arabs? Also, do all hotels allow guys in? I was eyeing the Ambassador Hotel in BKK.. it seemed like a good location (close to Hero, Albury and Body Club)..and I read somewhere they have good male masseurs..

There's more than 2 months before I leave.. with all the info I'm getting I fear I will leave with very few clothes and lots of notes lol

Hi Leo,
Well to start with just to get your taste buds dripping, go to XBOYS in Bangkok, Soi Twilight, even though I have seen this type of show thousands of times,this one is something special, Then over the road to DREAMBOY it can be good these days and your get the idea of what to expect when you want to off some one.


Are you sure you don't mean X-Size? The one upstairs, just past Dreamboys? X size has a few sex show stars, one boy on the dark side, funky hair cut with two strands of hair down the side, very toned/smooth body and an appendage that is both very huge and beautiful. He has a nice smile too if you can lift your head to see his face. I don't know his name or anything about. Anyone know him? He really rakes in the tips when he makes the rounds.

Xboys, downstairs, OK with the coyote dancers and all but I like X-Size a lot more.

Leo: I would suggest that you visit the saunas in Bangkok, Babylon for starters and see what pops up. If you look 25, you will not have any problems finding something though, you could get overwhelmed.

May 10th, 2010, 21:58
.Wow TrongpaiExpat you mean your a Bangkokian and you have never seen the amazing show at XBOYS, well naughty Boy, go tonight and educate your self its a must 10 pm show must be seen to be believed? or are you opne of those Dicks Cafe Flies, who just sit and watch the Boys go by and never venture in yourself :laughing3:

LMTU you continue to confirm that you are nothing more than a very sad analphabet idiot.

May 10th, 2010, 21:59
Oh dear!
The photos hadn't loaded the first time I saw your message.... now that I see, I don't think I can wait two months!!

Trongpai, I've never been to a sauna in my life.. and knowing what italian saunas are like.. I don't really care to go.. I can't stand group sex.. actually I even hate 3somes though for some reason I always seem to get in one anywhere I travel to.. I always find these open minded couples who ask me to join.. the drama is that in most cases I really fancy one of them so I sacrifice myself :p

And I hate saunas per se too!

May 10th, 2010, 22:07
Thai saunas are NOTHING like Italian saunas.

If you want to hook up with young, cute, non-commercial guys -- you could overcome your bias from past experience. Trust me.

May 10th, 2010, 22:10
Sweet! care to explain how it works there please?
The more I know the less I risk ending up in a corner thinking to myself "damn I shoulda brought my cellphone to play solitaire" lol

I'm just a shy innocent grey eyed boy :tongue3:

May 10th, 2010, 22:22
Yeah, I noticed and I was wondering!
I did see in some other posts a few guys that can get a bit aggressive towards other people if they express a different opinion.. in fact I was a bit scared to start a convo lol

So what's this Babylon sauna like? Walk in, wrap a towel and walk around and browse the shelves? when you say "on offer" you just mean all those guys charge? i'm wondering where i'm supposed to keep my wallet if I'm naked in a sauna... for the record, at least until now, my ass is only one way.... out :rolling:


If you hate saunas try Babylon, its the best for any age, you would never know you was in a sauna, more like a five star Hotel, and if you sit in the middle, just taking in the sites on offer, you never know you might even find your self following one of the free hunks, into the sauna, even though its very dark, but you being a young guy your find many others your age also. And Model looks, they even want me and even though IтАЩm a handsome man, I still have to look in the mirror to see if the light has just caught m in the right light.

As you see the Nutters of this forum pop up, now and then, you must ignore our house Piggy Back rider, it will show up now and then, with some verbal diarrhea, but just ignore him, he cant help it poor thing :headbang:

Never said I never went to Xboys, but it been a while. I'll check it out when I get the chance. How's the weather in Sydney/Bali?

May 10th, 2010, 22:35
Babylon is for CRUISING, not for selling sex. You will find Thai guys who just want to get off with you...like your Air Asia steward. And there are plenty of private places for you to do it with them there. Don't think, just go.

May 10th, 2010, 22:42
Alrighty Sir! Will do!

May 10th, 2010, 22:58
and I thought 5 days in BKK would have been more than plenty..lol
I'm forced to reconsider my itinerary..although I must get my ass (which I suspect will be very sore by then) to Sri Lanka around Aug 6 for a few days because I already have connections for naughty plans.. and also because I already have a ticket Colombo-Italy to go back...

So I land in BKK July 27th early morning.. I'm trying to decide whether I should hit Pattaya first and then BKK or viceversa..and how many days each.. I have a total of 10/11 days I can split between Pat and Bkk

May 10th, 2010, 23:11
At your age, I would skip Pattaya altogether.

It's "target audience" starts at about twice your age.

If you want to hit a beach nearby, Samet is the place for you. Lots of young gay (non-commercial) Thai guys go there, and it is about 1,000 times nicer than Pattaya.

LOL... cocks coming form all angles. Right.

If you're young and good looking, FORGET Pattaya (especially Sunee) and all the crap there.

Go to Bangkok. As well as the saunas etc. go to the two main clubs in Silom - DJ Station and G.O.D. You will have an amazing time. Really... cute boys coming at you from all angles... but a little more civilised lol. Thai boys are so friendly and heaps of fun to hang out with.

Needless to say, do not fail to use protection, whatever you do.

AS I have already said, your get most of the hunks your looking for in Bangkok and the Massage parlous, but give Pattaya a few Days, even though its not over run with big hunks, it has the beach and it has something for every one, then if you like it, next time you cum, stay longer, yes 5 nights in Bangkok 5 nights in Pattaya. if you donтАЩt like Pattaya and I do know very few who donтАЩt, just get back to Bangkok and stay there, for the end of your trip, as long as you do something different each day, you wont be bored and just one tip, try not to keep a boy more than 2 times, thatтАЩs when your wallets opens wider or have one boy all the time and he will show you around, if you trust him, but make him know you want to try all you can see you fancy, as well. Good luck happy hunting?

No, fuck Pattaya. Spend all 10 days in Bangkok... you'll never want it to end.

This is exactly why you shouldn't go to Pattaya... you have to put up with meeting old loser con men who haven't got a dime to their name like this fellow, just a moment (AKA LMTU).

This forum has been plagued by a flood of newbies, who are just the same old farangs
who keep getting banned and they keep coming back and post pure nonsense and
obsess about other posters..

Your posting is a breath of fresh air and much needed here.. Perhaps, some of the silly geese
will get a clue and realize that we are here because of our interest in Thailand and Thai
men and not in obsessing over old farangs and getting pissed out of our minds nightly..

Leo, do pm me the info you mentioned earlier .. :glasses7:

Emphatically a Troll; a guy who knows how to find sex with men in Arab country's would most certainly not need to search out advice from SGT members, most of all from sordid, sad creatures such as LMTU who's idea of a good time is getting his knees wet from too much kneeling in men's toilets servicing complete strangers who pass on to him such delightful STD's....

May 10th, 2010, 23:44
I obviously don't know what's been going on in this forum before my arrival.. perhaps I don't even want to find out... but in all fairness Just a moment has been really kind and helpful.. and I like to base my judgements on how people treat me rather than issues they may have with other people.. i may be young but i'm more than a decade past those high school things..

besides, thus far you've all been extremely nice and helpful and i very much appreciate all your suggestions!

Sanook, read what I said above. I don't know what's up with you but I don't care to be dragged into your drama.
Reading back I don't see any of my comments being misrespectful to anyone so I don't understand your attitude towards me.

Besides, you have written a couple posts in this thread already and none is pertaining to what I asked. I think that resembles much more the definition of troll than me asking for advice from people.

I know the Arab world because someone shared experiences with me, and I pass my personal experiences to other people so they can avoid risks and scams. As easy as that.

The trolls who dwell here have created a poisonous atmosphere but with newbies like
our Italian friend, things are looking up..

It appears to me that our usual trolls have gone back into their caves for the moment
and even lmtu has been responsible and infomative on this thread.. I always regret
any positive references in his direction, usually within minutes..
jinks is cleaning house and deserves a heads up for his efforts..

hang in there Leo and give the guys a chance to get used to the idea that this forum

Sorry, but I'm listing on the side of troll but as always, I'm willing to meet up with him when he's in Bangkok and dispel or prove this one way or the other. I have made this offer before to several suspected trolls and none have ever taken me up on the offer and PM's only result in either I have nothing to prove, sorry--next time or no, get lost. Often the suspect troll then just fades away.

I'd rather undergo a root canal without anesthetic.

"You might be surprised to learn that it is possible that even without anesthetic many teeth needing root canal treatment could be drilled on and you would feel no pain what so ever. In fact, it is conceivable that in some isolated cases (those where active infection and inflammation are not complicating factors) the entire root canal treatment process could be completed without any anesthetic or pain. Why? Simply because in these cases the nerve tissue in the tooth has died, and dead nerve tissue cannot transmit pain sensations." *

are you guys sure newbies don't disappear from this site because you scare them off these feuds? lol

besides, i didn't say i would meet someone overnight.. i'm always very skeptical with internet meetings.. i've been online since i was 16 years old and i have barely met 4 people (all of whom when i was living all alone in Canada very far away from home family and friends.. starting a new life from scratch..)

i'm here and i'm here to stay, of course unless things get out of hands.. for the record, i'm a psychologist.. doesn't mean i can spot weirdos/trolls by a chat but I'm well aware there are many freaks in this world and that they frequently gather on the net where they can be whatever they wish.. so i like to chat and get to know people..

anyways, I hope we can all move on from this "the newbie is a troll" thing because it's neither true nor funny

i've been reading the posts for quite some time and decided to jump in...
Pardon my dropping out of my usual character for "just a moment" myself, but if Leo truly is the grey-eyed newbie and has indeed "been reading the posts for quite some time" he's already aware that LMTU/just a moment/et al is so full of sh*t that his eyes are brown. Unless you're hypertensive take most anything he says with a handful of salt.

Good luck to you, though TotalNewbie. You're wise to do some varied research on different forums as well as doing some basic searches here. For a level-headed and interesting read and interesting source about on-going dealings with gay Thai guys try browsing through http://www.ricequeendiary.com/, too.

Thailand's a beautiful country with a vast amount to offer beyond what LMTU/just a moment sees. I urge you to explore it.

May 11th, 2010, 02:39
thank you bao-bao
by "i spent quite some time" i didn't mean a month.. i've only started my searches about this "side" of Thailand 4 days ago.. have gone through at least ten blogs/forums/guides etc

I did notice these "feuds" as I defined them earlier.. but it all looks out of context to me since I really know no one here and my reading of the posts was very selective

as I said before, Just a moment or LMTU as you call him (is that an acronym for something by the way?) was nice to me by sharing some info.. as he did name some venues that I had already decided I would visit - based on reviews I read elsewhere or their own websites.. so his suggestions or at least part of them didn't seem foul..

I did mention I visited Thailand 5 times.. from North to the extreme south Satun province.. and none of those trips was a "sex holiday".
Lately I have developed the urge to start travelling on my own, just to gain independence and freedom from friends and family really.. and it will be a long and varied trip touching 2 continents and 4 nations in slightly over 3 weeks.. It's not like I'm gonna lock myself in a massage parlour and not visit around and live some sort of "ghetto life" - that's not me in Italy, that's not me travelling.

I must say I was a bit saddened by someone's post in another thread saying there's nothing else to Thailand than gogo bars etc.. then again it could have been a bad joke..I dunno really!

Good luck to you, though TotalNewbie. You're wise to do some varied research on different forums as well as doing some basic searches here. For a level-headed and interesting read and interesting source about on-going dealings with gay Thai guys try browsing through http://www.ricequeendiary.com/, too.

Thailand's a beautiful country with a vast amount to offer beyond what LMTU/just a moment sees. I urge you to explore it.

If you hate saunas try Babylon, its the best for any age

I totally agree...the first sauna that I've ever been to and it was great. Handsome young gay guys, many of which wouldn't be caught dead in a go-go bar. It's where you're most likely to find college educated or guys from middle-class and up families.

The bar scene is a different type of guy. Many of them make good companions but they're typically from the North and probably left school by 16yrs old.

Try a variety of venues! Each one gives you a different view of the guys in Thailand.


i'm here and i'm here to stay, of course unless things get out of hands.. for the record, i'm a psychologist

Welcome to the nuthouse. And you don't need to be a model there. A decent looking guy in his 30's will get hit on left and right, both by guys looking for money and guys that are looking for someone to take care of them (perhaps not much of a difference). You also might be alarmed when 17 yr olds take a fancy with you. The guys prefer older guys for whatever reason, which is a boon for Westerners which seem to be raised with the opposite inclination. Same goes for skin color...they are nuts about white people whereas they catch my eye. Match made in heaven? Perhaps.

The only real risk in Thailand is getting attached to anybody. If you don't live there then it really is impossible to figure out who is sincere and who is not. It sounds like you keep things casual, so I'm sure you'll be fine.

You really have to be the most random person I've ever stumbled into!
I like it!
The Merlin Law makes straight guys suffer, besides, for the lucky ones living in the north.. it's just a one hour drive to to Switzerland..where it's all legit..

oh, i need some help here... i got a message in my mail saying i have a pvt message.. i click the link and it says i'm not authorized to read pvt messages..
i did look at previous posts about this problem.. must i assume i have already pissed someone off? lol

thanks for your suggestions mlomker
in a way i'm somewhat scared because i can never guess people's age even if it was to save my life (which in certain situations may be more than a saying!)
the main cause is that i always see myself like when i was 21yo so sometimes i may find a guy who's actually 20 and think he's over 30 and sometimes i find a guy who's actually 16 and i think he's 25..

so i'm wondering if there is a risk of finding underage guys in massage/gogo/saunas or they hopefully have a ban that is seriously enforced US-style? In Italy nobody checks a single id so one has to be very cautious - although our law says 16+ isn't an offence..

You did guess right, I like to keep things casual all the time because I need to be free and I have no idea what monogamy is.
I may feel some sort of "brotherly love" as it happened during my last holiday in Phuket with one of the resort's beach boys.. totally straight guy and not at all my type.. but the sweetest most genuine smile and the day I left he gave me the strongest hug and even 2 kisses.. almost bringing me to tears (what a wuss lol)

anyhoo I'm highly trained with arabs who tend to be cruel profiteers most of the time.. think i'll be able to handle the greediest of thai boys :blackeye:

[X] Only straight guys? Have a look at the Merlin Law:

"├И vietato l'esercizio di case di prostituzione nel territorio dello Stato e nei territori sottoposti all'amministrazione di autorit├а italiane."

[X] You are bisexual?

May 12th, 2010, 03:09
I do know the Merlin law very well, simply because many Italian politicians over the years have tried to abrogate that law.
I meant no such thing as male brothels ever existed in Italy - not at the Merlin time anyway!

And yes, I am bisexual

[X] Today there is no brothel with boys in Italy BECAUSE OF the Merlin Law.

[X] In the past Italy was the brothel of Europe. With boys, of course.

Sort of. There aren't now because of the Merlin law but the Merlin law didn't really close any gay brothels because gay sex was always very hidden and more street/battuage.
Now, in Milan and elsewhere, you can still get that or freelance professional escorts/masseurs who have their own apartments

No risk in saunas since everyone is carded. If you bring someone back to a regular hotel room then your guest has to leave their ID card at the front desk (and the hotel staff will verify their age and in many cases will already know them). If you meet a freelancer on the street then it'd be advisable to learn how to read the Thai ID cards. I always seem to end up with guys just a little younger than me so I haven't had to be concerned. I had an 18yr old sit next to me at Wild West for a few minutes and it weirded me out. Not for me.
