Bangkok Reports

What did you use to measure? (not a joke, I'm serious)

There are tools specifically made to measure microns, ie 1/1000 of a mm, used in the plastic film industry.
Adding seriousness to what seems a joke, I am wondering, as I am not an expert, whether the lubricant (film/layer) has an influence on the thickness. but this risks to become a bit too much of an analyses

[Mangofan]

I must admit that since using Comfort, I haven't read the fine print lately, so the size number could have changed slightly, due to correcting slightly false advertising. However, they used to read 54mm.
They are thinner than average and have a slightly bulbous shape rather than straight.
Carrefour and Big C may not have them as cater mainly for Thais. But plenty of 7s and pharmacies in mongering regions have them. Go to 7 store on Soi 23 and I am sure they will have them.

You are correct - Durex Comfort measures at 54mm. They are quite snug on me, and rather thin, but in a pinch they do the job. I have no idea where to get bigger condoms in this country. I live here, so last time I went home I went to Costco and bought 3 boxes of TROJAN-ENZ condoms. 10 bucks buys you a box of 40. They are slightly thicker than the Durex but not by much - and they are longer so very comfortable (at least on me).

He also wants lovely ladies to attend to him while he (we) take the full spa treatment.

You mean like Alexis in Jakarta :-)
I don't know of something like that in Bangkok.
I suspect the closest might be an upscale soapy, e.g. La Belle or Utopia ..

What did you use to measure? (not a joke, I'm serious)

I used a tool that we normally use to measure the thickness of paper.

@ MP lurker: Sure if your dick has been beaten flat, it may get close to the
width rather than the diameter. (It's a joke, I'm not serious)

@ Nvslim: Use whatever you feel comfortable with, as long as it does the job for you.

@ Pekkakoo: You guess right. Durex makes different sizes for different folks.

[Nvslim]

On an UK site they have the following info on Durex Fetherlite:

Length: 205mm
Width at base: 56mm
Width at base of head: 52mm
Width at head: 63mm
Thickness: 0.055mm

Wouldn't it just be easier to buy trash bags and a bungi cord?

But who knows, maybe the thai version here in BKK is smaller? The pack says it is 52.5mm but probably wider that somewhere. Why is it this hard for a consumer to find the perfectly matching size? Durex have same products under different names in different countries and also their sizes may vary so it is difficult if not impossible to find accurate information on each product.

They are 54 somewhere in the middle (Which is the width=half circumfence. The diameter is only almost 2/3 of the width, head: 40, right thereafter: 33, at the end: 36)

I guess it depends if your dick is very round or very flat.

[Wendella]

They are shaped, the head is 63mm, right thereafter 52 mm, expanding to the end to 56 mm. They are 54 somewhere in the middle (Which is the width=half circumfence. The diameter is only almost 2/3 of the width, head: 40, right thereafter: 33, at the end: 36)

The best condom Durex makes in that size is called Maximum Love and made only for the US market (The one in Thailand is smaller) - the difference is in the lubricant which is silk smooth and it is slightly thinner (I cut one open and measured 0.05-0.06 - The Comfort which sells in the US as "Extra Senitive" and in the UK as "Elite" is 0.07-0.08 )

I just ordered a large pack of Maximum Love from the US. If some senior members want, i can mail you some from Hong Kong. Just PM me.

Actually I have a pack of Durex Comfort but on the front side there is also in English size 56 mm, which is maybe just a little too big for me. My favorite has been Durex Fetherlite, which I think is thinner than average condoms. On the back side there are thai characters only and number 52.5, which I think refers to size 52.5mm? However they feel considerably bigger than standard 52mm:s in my home country so I don't know maybe Durex has its own size standards. On some web sites some sex shops that sell condoms online say that at least some Durex models are wider than the nominal width from the bottom. So who knows, difficult choices. If it really is 52.5mm then I think that 54mm would be perfect for me as Fetherlite a just a little tight perhaps, but still ok but I haven't seen any packs that have the number 54 on them.

Maybe I should try Carrefour or BigC if they have a wider selection than 7elevens, Tops and Villa Market.

I hate to change the topic from the Viagra et. Al. Posts, but I need some advice. Perhaps I should have posted in the Travel Announcement section or the Massage Section, but I will risk a stern word from the administrator.

I live in CM and occasionally contribute a post. I often respond with private messages from people posting on the CM section.

Now, I need some advice about BKK. I will be arriving in BKK with a farang friend after a very long flight from the USA. He wants to go to a full out spa with hot tubs, steam room, etc. He also wants lovely ladies to attend to him while he (we) take the full spa treatment. I think he is remembering an old MASH episode where the docs went to Tokyo and ended up in a hot tub with a couple of Japanese beauties. Anyway, I know of plenty of massage shops where he can take care of his most basic needs but I really don't know of a totally luxiourious, full service spa that also has ladies to flatten out the rough spots. Of course having ones basic needs taken care of is important as well. Price is not the biggest consideration here, rather I am looking for a luxury spa with lovely ladies that does a full spa treatment for guys and, pardon my political incorrectness, is not a gay bathouse. Any advice would be helpful.

Interesting talks about enhancement drugs...

So let's say a young guy would like to try and see how this could increase performance? Not that I have problems, but I am just interested in comments any other mongers would have.

I'm a young guy (late 20s) and have tried Viagra recreationally. For me personally, I used to take 100 mg pills (this was 2-3 years back when they were expensive) and use a pill cutter to get them down to 12. 5 mg pieces (one 100 mg pill split into eight). This is the difference between using enhancement drugs for fun and using them because you need to. I have no problems attaining and maintaining an erection, and even 12. 5 mg was more than enough for me. I had the usual responses of a flushed face and light headache. Over time it changed to just the flushed face and drowsiness after a few hours.

As for performance, it made me last a fair bit longer, which I've read is a common result from enhancement drugs, but people should know that this is because the drugs desensitize you a bit. I've read reports where guys are fucking girls for an hour before cumming and seriously people, that's not enjoyable for yourself or for the girl. When I climax while on viagra it doesn't feel as euphoric as when I'm not using it.orgasm tends to feel more like a goal than something of pleasure. And I think because of that I don't cum as much when on viagra (not that I'm Peter North, but normally I can get pretty close).

Another effect is that I can maintain my erection post-climax. It's like there's no cool down period, I can go fucking again almost immediately. The bad however is that the second time takes a lot longer to climax, and in combination with the loss of sensitivity it's not as enjoyable as sex should B.

Overall, I would advise against enhancement drugs for guys if you don't need them. They can definitely help you in attaining quantity, but not quality. Reading the reports on ISG and other forums where older guys (50s, 60s) are taking (needing?) the enhancement drugs and then fucking for an hour without climaxing tells me that the drugs have the same effects regardless of the age of the user.

I'm quite happy with the 52mm Durex Performa. I first found them during an emergency minibar raid and am only sorry they don't sell 12-packs of them in Bangkok.

I also took a full sacket of Sindenafil jelly once. The only time I've tried any of these drugs. All I got was a bad headache that disturbed any ability to get it up.

Durex Comfort are 54mm and avail in most 7eleven stores in Sukhumwit bar areas or Silom near Patpong.

The pack is dark blue but has some pinkish swirls on it.

See web site above shows its colouring.

Priapism (constant long term erection) can cause blood supply problems leading to gangrene of the penis which necessitates ....

Put it this way, you will come out of it with a fine soprano voice!

Actually no, the merely chop off the penis, not the testicales. So you would still have your bass, and your sexual urge, but no way to satisfy it.

I used to get priapisms years ago during much of my late 20s through mid-30s - sometimes they would last 2-3 hours, but thankfully never the full 4 that the warn will lead to permanent damage. Very painful and strange, but in my case unrelated to viagra as I hadn't taken it yet. I think they were from excessive masturbation.
