Phnom Penh

I'm planning a trip to PP and would like to hear about the gay scene there from someone who has recently visited.

I was there a few years ago and didn't find much. I'm hoping it has changed for the better.

Along with responses you're likely to get, I would suggest also making contact with some Phnom Penh boys on Gay Romeo. Even if you're not going to meet them, if anyone would know the gay scene there, they would. If you find a boy who is responsive, you might even consider making him an offer to personally show you around the gay scene. Chances are good he would not only know the places where farang go, but he might also be able to show you lesser known places too (which would interest me much more than touristy spots).

I've never been to Phnom Penh, but if I were to go that's what I would do.

Hi,
Gaybutton's advice is good, also use Jack'd to pre-meet. The gay scene is pretty low key and the bars are often small hit and miss places but usually friendly. Blue Chili is the most reliable and quite fun with a lot of rent. Often the nightclubs are a better bet if you can go with someone. There's usually a bit more going on in the sauna's for someone young and virile like you...
Cheers

I didn't use online dating for my trip.

.....someone young and virile like you...

Leaving aside the "young" - exactly how "virile" do you have to be to get your legs up in the air at the drop of a hat?

Rudolf Nureyev was pretty virile...

Well the Blue Chilli bar is always a good place to meet people, including friendly locals.

Also see comments on saunas in the other Cambodia threads on this forum.
