Everything in Patpong kind of has that amusement park vibe like it’s trying too hard to put on a good show or is a surface act. It’s hard to describe. I think Devil’s Den of Sukhumvit is the real deal. Like everything else it depends on who you meet there, not just the decor.

Do you identify as transgender? No officer I am gender non-conforming. Are you a man or a woman? I’m neither, I have both sex organs and can identify as either gender depending on the situation and my needs.

Somebody said earlier that all the submissives were katoey’s, and the doms were natural females. I guess I would find that out after paying the 1000 baht door charge. Also, if I’m picky about partners I need to pay the cover first before seeing anyone, that sucks.

Why would none of the girls at barbar assume a submissive role? That’s probably what most people are interested in. Wanting a dom is very niche, not much clientele there.

He must be getting pretty old by now. 70’s probably.

Use Facebook Groups. The agents list on there. The units have to be manually updated so you know the recent ones are available. You don’t search, it just gets bumped up as it’s listed.

The embassy may be shoddy (no problems with LA embassy so far for me) but it’s nothing compared to a shoddy agent in Thailand. If it were me I would get an O-A from the LA embassy and be good for two years. You would need the insurance, and a clean physical and criminal check though, not sure if your already covered. Big plus is that you don’t need to move funds or have a Thai bank account. Depends if you have a mailing address in the States and would return every two years. You have more control of the situation because your not pressured by dates and stuff expiring. Anything in the states secured beforehand is easier than dealing with stuff in Thailand after arriving, in my opinion. You’re going to have everything you need, not bopping around town looking for a “reputable agent”, or trying to convince some bank clerk that they deserve your business. Like the saying goes “if you want it done right, do it yourself” has worked great for me so far.

Yep, just take bell. It’s much easier. You can book in English on their website.

Do gay bars have a bar fine system with barboys? I wonder what kind of tools they are working with.

You could also get the O-A visa in your home country and keep your 800k where it is, but you will need to get medical insurance, physical and criminal checks.

How about going into a visa agent and asking them to sort it. They do everything else seems like they could sort the tm30 out. Your landlord is a nothing, a loser. There’s nothing they can do to you. They deserve any problems that come their way.

Japanese St seemed more than that to me. I mean when you walk down the street and all the girls holler at the Asian guys in front of you, then immediately turn to their phones as the farang walks past it’s a little off putting. I think the bars are instructing the girls to not make eye contact with farang, maybe because the Japanese are comfortable with their own kind in the bar.

It’s Barbar fetish club

See the guy in the shadows on the right at the beginning of the vid who yells “SM Show!”? That’s an S&M club. Has anyone been in there or know the name of that club?

Looks like it’s dying ????

Is Patpong nightlife still open for classic older western tourists, or is most of it shut down or catering to Japanese? Last time I was there Japanese St (not very welcoming at all to non Asians) was busy but the rest seemed like it was dying. Just wondered how it has evolved over the past 5 years. Are there any expats here in the forum that like Patpong regularly for nightlife?

The last time I was in a go-go in patong the dancers were clothed. I thought that was the new thing, naked not allowed, especially the ones you can see in from the street.

Not for me. I hate balconies with nets and won’t rent or live there.

Men don’t have penises.

You’re asking here about how to count your money, buy a SIM card, and whatever else. Is this a joke? Can’t you do anything yourself ????.

I’m not in the mood for any type of holiday or celebration.

UPS-FedEx etc do deliver to P.O. Boxes. You just put the street address of the post office and the box number and pick it up at the post office counter. They leave a slip in your P.O. Box. I would check with that particular post office, they may not all be drop off locations. Most gov’t offices go buy postmark date, not received date, so the one sitting there has a chance of being valid when it is received.

They are lucky he did not have a grenade in his other hand. The way he was just standing there in the first vid was a bit strange.

Most animals <deleted>, except for the best among us. Is there a reason in particular that pigeon’s shouldn’t?

That’s very common. Family wants to pull together as people age or have problems, or just in general. There is something about proximity that helps the family unit survive. I don’t think they like members leaving the country. My family gets nervous when I return periodically. I get constant repeated questions even though I have lived abroad for years (the same question over and over, like what country are you going to, I need to know the exact country, etc) about travel that seem like genuine interest, but it’s really nervousness.
