There are bars all over Thailand which cater to women who wish to meet with guys. There were at least two in Pattaya 2nd Road, one of which had a mamasan whom I knew. I saw photographs of the line-up; they were very handsome- probably, as a group, better looking than those at the gay go go bars I knew.

The clients included those whose husbands who couldn't perform, were absent or estranged and younger women- even bar-girls- looking for fun.

My information is a decade out-of-date but these bars- allegedly "karaoke bars"- are not well-publicised, which is why some women may end-up in bars like BBB.
