Rants and stupid shit in Prague

[DwayneJohnson]

But I also think that we're witnessing a global cultural shift when it comes to sex work and the Covid lockdowns sped up that shift. I've personally noticed in porn, both Stateside and European, that the attractiveness of talent has declined since Covid. Whilst I am not a frequent strip club attendee, I have also have limited anecdotal evidence that the same has happened at strip clubs too. The talent just isn't as physically attractive as it used to be. I think the reason behind this are webcam sites (who often have lovely looking ladies on them) and Only Fans.

AI fixes this. OF and Cam are about to be dead end for girls just check out deepnudes and AI girlfriends. I am pretty sure there will be an army of indian call center employees faking as an Insta thot or Only fans model during lunch breaks. This will put a dent in Simp economy for girls and they would have to come back to physical work place. Golden era of punting is about to start again.

[DwayneJohnson]

I can't see any of this getting better either, because the liberal European attitude to sex is also changing. Anti sex work and anti porn used to be the domain of the religious right. Now the movement is growing among the liberal left that porn and sex work isn't empowering for women after all. We're seeing movements, in places like Amsterdam, to clean it up entirely. Prague won't be far behind. I fear the golden era is long gone.

It's cyclical in nature. Capitalism brings golden era == > golden era makes people dumb == > dumb people bring Leftwing nutjob utopia == > Leftwing nutjob utopia make people destitute and brings hard work era == > Hard working capitalists bring back golden era.

I don't understand the need for the hostility in your post. We are having a discussion and this isn't Twitter. There are no echo chambers to show off too. For the sake of civility, I'll refrain from being equally as combatitive and try to stick to logic.

What exact question did I fail to answer?

As for being a simp, I think you'll find that is a label that can be pinned to almost every punter alive. There is a strong argument, especially when levied against single men, that anyone who pays for sexual services is a simp, especially those deluded enough to think the sex worker actually has a good time with them. And of course non-single men are just cheats, which isn't really any better, but depending on their motive can be construed as less simpish.

I don't live under any delusions or illusions. Nor do I regard myself as a "big shot". I have certain needs that need to be fulfilled and I can't get them fulfilled at home. The question is, why can't I find a non-sex worker to fulfill them? And the answers are very simple. I don't have the time to look, it's too risky to look, there is no guarantee that if I found someone they'd be into what I need, it's too risky to have a friend with benefits and finally I am under no illusions that aesthetically I am not exactly Brad Pitt or extremely rich and therefore if I want a good looking attractive young woman it's very unlikely that I'd be able to pick one up at a bar, on a dating app etc.

So given what the definition of a simp is, I don't believe I am a simp. I know what I like, I know what I want, I know what I am willing to pay and most important of all I know the arrangement is 100% transactional and I'm under zero illusions that if it wasn't for the money, then the girl wouldn't be at all interested in being there with me.

As for trafficking and exploitation, let's keep using the word simp. Simps convince themselves that most of the girls are there through choice. Simps convince themselves that trafficking is a rarity or doesn't happen in the places where they monger. Simps convince themselves that the girls actually like them and want to be with them. Simps convince themselves that the girls actually have a great time with them whilst carrying out sexual services. That's a simp.

The article I posted was intentionally before the war as it is well known that Ukrainian women were being exploited before the war. If you think that this situation has gone away then I have a bridge to sell you. It's got worse since the war. When a sex worker is robotic in her process, it's because she doesn't want to be there. At best this is because she's having a bad day and just wants to get it over with. Usually it's because she is either really disgusted by the punter or because she's not there through her own free will. There is a reason why so many Ukrainian girls are charging more and why their services are inferior. They aren't setting their own prices and they don't want to be there. But they are expected to bring home a minimum amount of cash or they'll be consequences for them. Anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of human nature, history and common sense can put two and two together on that one. And being in the country legally has nothing to do with anything either. Most trafficked girls are not illegal immigrants. In the UK we've had tremendous problems with trafficked girls from Central and Eastern Europe, including Czechia but, primarily from Romania. I would never monger in my own country, but if I did? Then I'd stay away from every Romanian sex worker there because there more chance that they're trafficked than not. Fuck, I'd pretty much stay away from Romanian sex workers anywhere.

I don't really care what you like or what you can do, or what girls you can find for what price or even what you believe to be true. You do you, I'll do me. I have zero interest in quick wham, bam thank you mams. I have no interest in being the eighth punter on that day, knowing that several other man have sweated away or cum on her before me. I have no interest if I have to use a condom. My desires go beyond the mechanical requirement to just get off. I can use my right hand for that and get on with my day in a much more efficient manner. If I need basic sex or a blowjob, I can get that at home anytime I want.

Finally, a fair price? Fair is a human subjective concept and doesn't actually exist. There is no such thing as fair or a fair price. It's an illusion. Ironically given the simp statement, one could argue only a simp would believe in the concept of a fair price. For this particular topic this maxim, often inaccurately credited to Publilius Syrus, comes to mind. "Everything is worth what its purchaser will pay for it."

As I stated elsewhere, I believe the sexual liberation of Prague is coming to a rapid end anyway. Politically and socially the right and left are becoming more aligned on their perceived damaging impact of pornography and sex work and when both sides of the political spectrum come together like that, then the end is inevitable. It's just a matter of when.

So, instead of answering the question Gentleman John, you just counter with your point on human trafficking. I don't deny that it exists, but it is everywhere around the world. I don't believe that the majority of the girls are trafficked because as refugees, these girls are legally in the country. Your article seems to be from 2019 when girls were not free to move from country to country to work. As refugees, girls can go anywhere a visa is granted. Does a pimp boyfriend count as a trafficker?

So, you believe that if you fly a girl from city to city that you are a big shot. That just makes you a SIMP! In Prague, or anywhere else in the world you can convince any girl to travel with you. I too have been provided passports of girls who wish to fly somewhere with me. Sure, but not for a first meeting. I will need to know the girl first, including her real name and her skills in bed. Is she even worthy of a second meeting, let alone a trip to another country? What better place to go than Prague to take a test drive? If I wanted to, I could splash money around and "make it rain". There is no need. Where I find myself in is a buyer's market and I won't go beyond what the market would bear..

[FiddyCent]

I think it is very naive to believe that large scale trafficking doesn't take place in Prague. There will even be Czech girls from the countryside who are being exploited and trafficked. Of course there are plenty of girls out there who aren't too. I'd wager that since the conflict began the situation has gotten a lot worse.

https://www.unian.info/society/10615...king-ring.html

I'm in a privileged position where I am able and willing to spend a decent amount of money and usually take the girls out of the country. One of my primary motives for this is that I then get to buy their plane ticket and that gives me access to their real name. I can then perform some due diligence, including finding out how local they are, whether they have another career and are escorting on the side (which is often the case), their real social media presence etc. That's not to say that clever traffickers couldn't set up a fake history but I doubt they'd go to those sort of lengths. But you're right, no one can ever be 100% sure, especially if the girl is a single parent.

As for these girls also working out of a club, it is again possible but working out of a club doesn't automatically equate to being trafficked or pimped out. Independents work clubs too.

There is no need. Where I find myself in is a buyer's market and I won't go beyond what the market would bear. If a girl quotes me 5000 to 6000 CZK to start and for basic services, I laugh and move on. She would have to prove that she is something special before I would even consider her rate or to take her to the next level. It is not hard to find out what a girl does for a living outside of escorting. All you need to do is ask. I know the real names of several Czech pornstars and escorts. It really isn't a big deal to get to know them. So answer me this, of the girls you have taken out and interrogated, how many of them were trafficked? Are they doing this with you under their free will? If a girl appears to be distressed in the introduction with me, it won't even get past the first 5 minutes. By performing your due diligence, what did you hope to achieve? Are you thinking of a LTR or marriage? As I have said before, there is something for everyone in Prague. If there is a girl that you have found on Tinder or Instagram that catches your eye, I am sure she is hiding something from you. Hey, if you want to be somebody's Sugar Daddy, that is your right. Knock yourself out. Our topic of discussion began with why prices have increased and services decreased. You cannot just pin this on inflation or other job opportunities. There are enough providers in Prague. I am advocating a fair price for a set standard of services. Clubs had a set price and options to upgrade services for said price. Same goes for privats. What I don't agree with are girls that set a price and refuse service. You hear stories of that all the time in Show Park and recently in one of the Prague clubs where the girl said the 3000 CZK was not the price for sex. Come on ! If you let girls get away with that, then the market is screwed. If you invite Cinderella out to the ball, eventually the clock strikes midnight.

You do bring up some valid points Gentleman John, but I don't believe the girls that are working in Prague are doing things against their will. I think these girls are doing this line of work because they like to earn money. It does not explain why Czech girls are still charging local rates 1500 CZK, while Russians and Ukrainian girls are charging 5000 CZK to 6000 CZK for essentially the same service. Prices for everything are going up. Yes, inflation has its grip on the market! The economy is better, but I am almost certain that local men are not making double or triple what they earned from just a few years ago. I read reviews of bookings that are only 30 minutes because these men are priced out of the hourly sessions. For girls, I don't believe their options are that much better. There may be Only Fans and other webcam services that are offered, but there is competition in those fields as well. Sure, the girls can work as independents, but they also put themselves at risk for violence. Many girls just find that they could earn an equal amount just by working at a massage parlor instead of an apartment brothel. Blame could go to the tourist who is willing to pay, but the girls know there are those tourists who are willing to pay. These scenarios have all been well covered on this forum as well as on others. Bottom line is the girls still need to pay rent and pay for their education. Jobs cannot be that lucrative compared to earnings through selling sex. Just look at the sex map. Every point on the map is one place where you can find a girl offering sex. The girls will charge up to what the market will bear. If men are willing to pay, the girls know they can get away with it. Why not work half as hard and get paid double or triple? There comes a point in time where tourists will say, why go to Prague for average service when they could stay home and get so much more? Why pay for inferior service when there are better options elsewhere. It might not necessarily mean destinations such as Amsterdam, Prague, or cities in Germany, but there are many other options around the world. An increase in the talent pool should drive prices down, due to the increase in supply. I don't believe that demand has increased so much that it is surpassing the supply. Rising prices are as a direct result of decreased workload and rising costs. That added pressure to meet their monthly quota will lead to poor service and unhappy customers. So long as men are willing to pay, the girls will keep trying to get away with it.

Let's discuss your independent girls. How much are the ones you have vetted charging you for each meeting? You say that they are worth the extra money because you believe they are of a higher standard. How so? You could be dating the exact same girl working out of a club because you think you are getting her exclusively booking through an agency. You could be very sadly mistaken, but it is your coin to toss around.

[FiddyCent]

I think that there are many factors in play, including human trafficking and desperation. I'd wager a fair few of Ukrainian girls (and Romanian girls in the German FKKs) aren't entirely there by their own choice, so it's not surprising that a lot of them aren't the most enthusiastic of providers. It's one of the main reasons why I'll only use independents and do as much due diligence on them as I can prior to confirming.

You also have to factor in that the Czechia is wealthier than before. Sex work is no longer as comparatively lucrative as it used to be for the locals. Well paid regular jobs are more abundant than they used to be, as are the opportunities to go and live in other EU countries to earn good money. It's not like the old days where an average sex worker would earn so much more than a normal job. Likewise as Czechia has become more popular it has become more expensive for everything and because it's not as cheap for sex tourists, as it used to be, demand has probably dropped.

I can't see any of this getting better either, because the liberal European attitude to sex is also changing. Anti sex work and anti porn used to be the domain of the religious right. Now the movement is growing among the liberal left that porn and sex work isn't empowering for women after all. We're seeing movements, in places like Amsterdam, to clean it up entirely.

The talent just isn't as physically attractive as it used to be. I think the reason behind this are webcam sites (who often have lovely looking ladies on them) and Only Fans. I'm only guessing here, but the escort business must have been hit hard by the pandemic. To make a living a lot of providers turned to webcam sites (as did pornstars and potential pornstars) and probably found it to be rather lucrative and a lot safer and convenient than turning tricks or doing porn for studios. There's also the possibility that the pandemic forced a few girls to go Cold Turkey for any addictions and that cleaned them up enough to get out of the sex work industry. We may find over the coming years that this corrects itself and goes back to normal, but I think this cultural shift was already underway pre-Covid.

Another factor is that I think mainstream porn is getting more extreme. Or rather acts that were historically considered kinky or taboo have now normalised. This means punters are more likely to fulfill kinky desires in their day to day sex life. I was chatting to a mixed group of teenagers on a night out recently (celebrating a 19th birthday) and they were drunk and talking about sex and the girls were saying how much they loved giving sloppy blowjobs, being face fucked, slapped, spat on, choked and having guys give them facials. It's been 30 years, but no way teenage girls were like that when I was a teenager! They were talking about it like it was perfectly normal. All these kids have been exposed to porn and are imitating what they see. Teenage boys have always been a nightmare when it comes to pressuring girls for sex, it must be a fucking nightmare for young girls now!

I think the growing extremity of porn has had other effects too. I would imagine customers are far more demanding with the girls now. There have obviously always been guys who are into rough and / or kinky stuff (like me! But that number has almost certainly grown. Girls that are willing to do more, will obviously get more business and be able to command higher fees but girls that won't do those things may find themselves not getting enough work and therefore leave the industry, especially local girls when combined with my next theory.

You also have to factor in that the Czechia is wealthier than before. Sex work is no longer as comparatively lucrative as it used to be for the locals. Well paid regular jobs are more abundant than they used to be, as are the opportunities to go and live in other EU countries to earn good money. It's not like the old days where an average sex worker would earn so much more than a normal job. Likewise as Czechia has become more popular it has become more expensive for everything and because it's not as cheap for sex tourists, as it used to be, demand has probably dropped.

Prague won't be far behind. I fear the golden era is long gone.

While I do not argue with your economic theory DwayneJohnson, most of which I do agree with, you simply cannot ignore that the local girls are being displaced by other foreign workers. There are already fewer and fewer clubs available for the girls to work in. They must go and become independents or work out of privats. While this is happening, there is competition. Instead of turning 5 tricks per night, they might only get 2. The price of rent has not gone down and forces the girl to charge more to make up the difference, while at the same time reducing their quality. This is the problem. I don't blame the Ukrainian girls themselves, nor am I complaining about inflation. I am saying that the girls do not operate under the same standard as I and many other locals have become used to getting in Prague. I can tell the difference. The facts are spelled out in the reports I am reading. They said some girls barely put any effort into their jobs and still demand the same payment. Quality down, prices up! This is echoed throughout the boards and not just on the Prague forums. More competition, although you get more variety, does not mean higher standards and lower prices. This is not supply and demand. If that were true, the influx of girls would have dropped the price of sex to a street hot dog. You know that's not true!

Why does this HAVE to be a global standard?? Every. Single. Time. There is a nice congregation of mass presence with an economy in tow, its seems to be a clarion call to the dregs of society. Totally sours the atmosphere. Can't trust that the price you pay for a simple bottle of water or whatnot is fair market value. Too many traps make me hate the place and never want to come back. Destroys business, and then in turn brings in hyper-regulation to tame the corruption, which in turn discourages business. Who lets these scumfucks in??

Got stung by a cabby, got stung by an outcall agency, got stung by a vietnamese owned convenience store, almost got stung by a food cart. Its not like the apartments and living conditions here are top notch or anything, we're getting jobbed right off the bat with those. If I didn't know any better I'd say this place was hand-crafted by a consortium of Texas-based businessmen!!

I guess the disgusting embarrassment of it all is that the cabby all of about got me for an extra 50 czk and the convenience store for about 35 czk. We'll round it up to just under $5 in total. It amounts to stealing pennies from the tray or something. You're going to label yourself a THIEF, a progenitor of bad faith and ill will, over that little!? It'd be funny if it weren't so sad. Do these cowards think they're going to steal their way to the top? Do they think their diligent efforts towards connivance and duplicity will be duly rewarded by the universe with a real estate empire or something? Where do they think they are, Texas? I was talking to a (more) honest local store-owner and he said he has seen them come and go over the 12 years he has stayed in business. Its not the transient you rip off that keeps you afloat as much as its the local who keeps stopping by.

And yes, you read that right, I called them cowards because that's what they are. You see, the businesses they run here are under the gun by the state. Govt is the most corrupt of them all and squeeze these businesses out like toothpaste from a tube. Except for the food cart, (that one is secretly owned by the mayor and is registered as a tax-free charity) businesses are taxed to death and are not terribly profitable at all. Business owners work themselves to death and have no life or free time. So instead of agreeing with the idea of hurting innocent customers, stick it to the man. Just don't play ball like that, give the middle finger to the state. When the govt takes the hit with lower tax intake because businesses don't bother starting up under these conditions, govt has to take its foot off the gas, which in turn allows business to flourish. But that takes bravery and conviction. We only have cowards here.

Bangkok is great but wait until you hit the city of Pattaya. That city was BUILT for sex.

I've always wanted to visit Pattaya, it's definitely on the bucket list. But for me, just getting to Thailand itself is an issue, finances and all.

Now that I've gotten shit off my chest, some of that was actually written months ago before I went on my Bangkok trip. But I'm back baby, and I had almost a month of one of the best if not the best mongering trips I've ever had in my life. Definitely the way to go for an old man like me. Definitely a great way to spend your old age. I'm tearing up now just thinking about the trip, wishing I was back there. I'm getting my shit together, and I'll write a detailed day by day report for my Bangkok trip. Fellas, Prague will always have a special place in my heart, and Jesus H Christ willing, someday I might even go back, but I think Bangkok is it now. It's my Caribbean cruise, it's my Vegas. It's that place for me, the equivalent to some people and how they go back to the same place to do the same thing year after year. I think Bangkok might just be it. God, just the prices alone can't be beat. After paying for 3 girls what one girl would cost in Europe, I don't know how to go back. I mean, I know it's a matter of taste, sometimes you just got to have a blonde, but at my age, I can't be top picky no more, pussy is pussy fellas. Well, at least for me anyway. I know the Thailand pages of out vaunted forum is pretty toxic, but I just got to report on my trip. I have to. I need to remind myself what I experienced but I need to drive myself to go again one day, hopefully sooner than later. I've pretty much given up on Europe as a whole, but I will never give up on Prague. I'll be back someday Prague. *.

Not too many years ago, I was in India ostensibly to 'work', but it was so dirty, loud, messy, and shitty, literally sometimes, that I had no mood to hobby. But Jesus Hiram Christ fellas, you want to talk poverty? You want to talk homelessness? India and south east Asia's poverty and homelessness will make those in the US look like the middle class. That's where we come in ain't it? Sure we're debauched, traveling the world to fuck. But we also see the world. We got perspective. Edumecated or not, seeing the world opens the mind. You can compare, you can enumerate, you become a little more enlightened. Dare I say it, maybe even become a better person? Nah, fuck that shit. Man, I remember that one time I was in Dubai or was it Abu Dhabi? One of those camel jockey shit places. And it was a blazing 115 degrees. But apparently, nowadays it's around 150. Holy shit. That makes Death Valley look like the Arctic. Man, my life sucks, I've been through hell and back, and as depressing as it sounds, to help me sleep at night I have to know that there are some people out there that have it worse than me. Believe me I know, not many people out there have it worse than me, but there has to be some, even just one. I can't be the unluckiest person in the world. Fucking hell, just kill me already. *.

Think about it, the sheer genius of the plain simple logic of how the US are doing things with the covid restrictions, and that Thailand is following too. It's incredible. I wish other countries would do it too. The US isn't fully open, it's not zero restrictions, you still got to show that you're vaccinated, and you just show your airline, and at your port of entry. The actual document, qr code, piece of paper, certificate, cardboard, what the fuck ever your country gives you. The US will look at it, no apps required, no pre-registration, no websites, no nothing. But other countries? You got to download apps, log into websites, you got to upload shit, everything's glitchy as fuck, and then someone on the other side checks it, days or weeks later you might get a QR code, then you got to download or screengrab shit, maybe print it out, or have it on your phone always. Jesus Howard Christ. I mean fucking really? As much as I hated the 1 day pre-departure test requirement, this thing with the zero apps required is just pure genius in its simplicity. Thailand ain't zero restrictions either, you got to show you're vaccinated when you arrive, but if you ain't or can't they just test you then and there at the airport when you arrive. If you got it, they'll even accept your shitty cardboard CDC card. Talk about simplicity. Kudos to both the US and Thailand. But oh no. So many other shitty countries need some fucking high tech mumbo jumbo impossible to use, glitchy fucking app and website shit nonsense just to certify you've been stuck 3 times by a needle. Like, goddamnit man. I hate that EU digital*covid certificate so much. Most of them' are gone now, miraculously even*Austria, that's why it's*on my radar, but see'Mon. Rest of Europe, get your head out of your ass. Finland's another good example of the use of logic behind this, for over a year now I think, if you're arriving as an American from the US, they'll take your shitty CDC cardboard vaccine card as proof. Done, that's all ya need, and off you go to Helsinki or wherever the fuck you want to be. Again no fuckin' apps, websites, and all that bullshit. The point is the 'proof of vaccination' certificate. Ain't it? If it's a piece of crap cardboard, some fancier laminated paper certificate with a QR code, or a shiny wallet sized plastic card, or some fuckin' dumb shit app on a phone, that's all it fucking is. PROOF. That's fucking it. All those countries with their bullshit apps should just get their shit together. You know someone*is making money from this shit. That's why it's being endlessly re-implemented in certain places. I hope those fucking places never recover tourism wise. *.

You guys should read my review of Nuremberg. That was a fun trip. Not half bad. It's the experience of a lifetime fucking a window girl that just woke up, in a red light district that's literally by the old city walls, walls that date back to the middle ages. Just fucking historical. Not too far away from the freaking town castle, fairy tale like in the way it looks and on a hill, etc. Again, I wish I wasn't there in the middle of summer, but I was there in Germany for a convention, so timing wasn't a choice then. But doing the math though, I am happy to say that in my long, tired life, about only half of my trips to Europe has been in the shitty months of summer, the rest though ranged from the depths of 2 feet of winter snow, to the glorious orange yellow explosions of fall foliage and just plain old spring. Now with my current employment situation, maybe I can swing another Europe trip in the fall or winter, Jesus Henry Christ willing. Sometimes, I find it hard to believe the places I've actually been. I've even been to Loch Ness. It was so many years ago I even forgot. But yeah, I did. Jeez. *.

I've been pretty rough on myself, I just don't get it sometimes. I got to cut myself some slack. Here's the deal, I keep forgetting that up until May and especially June, most countries still had some level of arcane and confusing restrictions, what with the apps and shit. And even us over here we still had that pre departure and attestation thing all the way to June 12th. For literally months I scanned, researched, surveyed, piled through websites, algorithms, combinations, anything to try to make a trip to almost anywhere, hobbying or not, to find that in the end, finally by mid to end June, and by July itself that most places were good to go, open for fucking business. But by then of course it was too late, air fares skyrocketed, travel chaos, etc. Stupid pilots picketing? Shit really? Fuck you assholes. You're lucky to have a job. Just fly the fucking planes and fuck the stewardesses. Stop bitching. The irony of it all, aside from that being my middle name, was that weirdly some places the hotels were affordable, but the flights were through the roof. And if by some miracle, some flights were decent, the hotels at said place were through the roof. Just can't win. The litany of things I went through those months, the rollercoaster of emotions, of years of not having had the chance to hobby, the desperation, if it wasn't one thing, it sure as shit was another. The work situation was and is not great, but by March and April I figured fine, fuck it all, let's travel. Let's fuck somewhere. At that time, countries that were 'open', to me wasn't really, cause they still had apps and shit. I was jonesing to go to Prague then, but it hit me with the 1 day pre departure test, I could get stranded if I tested positive. This applied to anyplace in the world of course. So okay, onto some heavy research for land border crossings into the US via Canada or Mexico. I also had passport issues at that time too, so it wasn't impossible, but not ideal to travel. So fine, I said to myself, "dude, let's just wait, see how things pan out and keep looking. " At a certain point, I'm not even sure when now, I kinda gave up on Europe, sort of. I know I still had some domestic locations in mind, just to travel, to go anywhere. Like a Honolulu or San Francisco, Denver, Dallas, Portland or Seattle, but Europe kinda hovered around in my mind still. Always checking the news, websites to see what countries would do as the world inched closer to summer. So of course, no funds were exchanged, cause I was still waiting.

When the news came that the pre-departure test was finally hallelujah scrapped, any domestic ideas were immediately thrown out the window, good riddance if you ask me. But by then flights were already rising, and rising fucking fast. I don't like Europe in the summer heat, so it was pretty much out. Expensive too. Long story long, by the time I finally clicked 'purchase' on my Bangkok trip, it was a long time coming, but here's where it breaks my heart. And I swear to Christ, I'm not making this up. Not 1 hour after I made my bookings for Bangkok, flight and hotel, etc. An old acquaintance*messaged me, said 'Hey, look at what I saw in the news, just announced, great right? Turns out one of the countries I had on*my mind, but decided to skip on, had literally just removed more restrictions, if not entirely, it was supposed to be easier. I was thinking to myself, wow, I just can't be allowed any joy at all right? I was super psyched for Bangkok, ecstatic, high on life, ready to go and fuck, fucking finally, I made a decision and clicked the buttons. And boom! Life comes in and rains on my parade and says, "Uh uh uh. No way, you don't get to celebrate, if only you waited one more day, or if only that idiot had told you one day sooner, you'd be able to make a different more comprehensive trip, so fuck you". For the longest time my middle name was humiliation, but it's also irony now. I would've gone to Bangkok in July in a heartbeat if I could've, but by God, the flights were insane. 3 times more than what they would be any time outside of the summer months. I just couldn't do it. I tried different combinations, maybe a layover in Europe somewhere to justify the higher cost to myself, but my brain just couldn't make it stick. In the end, even with everything*I've been through in life, even as old as I am, even with nothing to lose, I still couldn't allow myself to splurge. But Bangkok it is then. Yes, it's hobbying mainly but I just want to laze around, eat some good food, take long showers, get plenty of massages with the sex, drink beer, talk to bargirls, just have a slow, chill, relaxing time. I'm fine with the heat cause I know here and Europe it'll be the same 90 degrees anyway. Being in a tropical place when it's winter here, just feels like such a waste of the cold weather. *.

I don't mind writing all this shit down, it's a free forum after all, with no person to actually talk to, I want to get this down somewhere, you're free to not read it. In the Bangkok forum, under the 'foreign escorts' section, for literally pages and pages worth, everybody was just discussing BBFS. Almost no salient information at all on foreign escorts. So by God, I'll talk about whatever the hell I want. I do miss the old days, I was looking back at some of my trips and man, they were definitely cheaper. But to be fair to the world of today, it wasn't that much cheaper, but it sure as shit was easier. It was the days of just showing up at the airport to check in and at that moment asking for an aisle seat. Those were the days when I started hobbying. Jeez louise. I don't know fellas, I'm too old for any of this shit. Too old, and while not 'lonely', most definitely alone. With everything I've been through, you'd think I'd be more confident with what I wanted to do, especially with the splurging*of cash. I want to do it though, after Bangkok, I want to do it. Go on another trip, back to Europe finally. Not Prague anymore, but someplace else. To hobby. Not a huge balls to the wall fuck-tastic extravaganza, but not on the cheap either. I've got limited funds, but unless you're rich, most people would have limited funds too. Bit of deja vu*here, but I remember somewhere*in this forum I must've made the exact same*comment, but years ago. But off I went anyway. I've always been a huge proponent of experience over material*things. Always. Money's always been tight, but after so many decades, it's the experiences I remember. Not the amount of money spent on them. And definitely not the things I've owned or currently use. It's the same thing as that old joke about how when someone's on their deathbed, would their last words ever be 'I wish I had spent more time in the office'. Probably not, odds are, especially for us old guys, it'd be more along the lines of 'I wish I had fucked more hot babes'. I've always said that if you want to go somewhere then don't penny pinch yourself. Cause if you're going to be a scrooge, especially to yourself, then just don't go at all. By all means don't lose control and bet your life savings on the farm, but at the same time don't fuck yourself over. Cause years down the line, you're going to remember that you took that cruise, or that you went up that observation deck, that you fucked that sex worker while you were in that city, cause odds are very high you'd never see that place ever again. I look at it like this, if you're going to drive 100 miles, why stop at the 99th? Just one mile to go. You're there in said city, fuck that girl. Do that thing, go to that place. Life is paradoxically*both too long and too short at the same time. Too short for the good things, like sex and food. But way too fucking long for the bullshit in between like dealing with people and work. I keep thinking that maybe I wish I was dead, but I know deep down inside it's more that I wish I was never born. How does anyone deal with trauma? The way it just makes a home in my head, it's just downright depressing. It's bad enough that it happened, but for it to replay itself over and over again. Sisyphus indeed. This is it for me. Bangkok is for me. I got to get this out of my system, literal years of being deprived, I got to go and fuck and fuck and fuck. Then if and when I get to Europe again, I'll throw in some culture shit. Fine, fine. There's going to be culture shit too in Bangkok, but fucking first. *.

It's weird how when the hotels are pricey the flights are cheaper but when the flights are pricey the hotels end up cheaper, just can't win. Just for shits and giggles I was googling for hotels in Helsinki, and strangely this summer it ain't half bad, it actually becomes more expensive by October, but Jesus Hogwarts Christ, the flights going there this summer are expensive. What the fuck is wrong with people always having to travel in the summer? Jeez. *.

It sucks to be so cursed like the way I am. Literally by the way, but that's a long story. Let's just say don't mess with natives or indigenous people from anywhere in the world. I wasn't messing around either, for normal people a breakup is a breakup, but when it comes to more animistic traditions, a breakup means that the family has to curse you to a lifetime of pain and suffering. Whoop de fucking doo. I've looked into how to break it, but what can ya do? When you're fucked, you're fucked. Look, I don't feel like I wasted too much time these past months, I picked up a lot researching all this travel shit that's going on, all the restrictions and shit, I looked into just about every country in the world, even thought about places in and around Africa for possible mongering options, especially in relation to travel restrictions, workarounds the then existing*stupid 1 day pre-departure test thing, it's a whole new world now, the so-called 'new normal' and all that, but still, with all this shit constantly*in flux, it's damn near impossible to lock anything down. I miss the old days of just "Hmm. It's Monday, I want to get some snatch. It's Friday, I'm in Amsterdam and I'm fucking hot pussy!' Those days are long gone for me. It's still possible for some of you fellas out there with more disposable*income. Oh hell, I just found out about this whole amazing high speed train thing that goes to Venice from Vienna. Venice! Sure, there's no affordable and or accesible*prostitution in Venice. But jeez, who doesn't ever want to go to Venice just to experiene that fucking place before it sinks, am I right? Just another reason Vienna is a good idea, but again outside of the ridiculous*summer months though. It's amazing to think that the last time I was in Prague, the Wien Hauptbahnhof was still under construction. Man, I hope I die fucking a hot girl. I mean of course not right on her. That'd be pretty traumatic for the poor thing, I mean after she leaves the room, and I'm having my post cum high. I'll have a heart attack and boom! Lights out. *.

Here's where I'm coming from. What does it mean for a country to be fully open? Zero restrictions. Absolute zero. We're talking pre-covid shit. Passport? Check. Your plane ticket? Check. You're good to go. These past months I was so desperate I was willing to consider. *gulp*. APPS! Those fucking accursed godforsaken covid entry apps! Europe's*digital covid certificate, Canada's arrivecan, Thailand Pass, and so so so many more it made my head*spin, I wanted to puke in place. It's one thing to go to these places with all these*restrictions*in place, back then anyway, but back then too with the frankly*ridiculous 1 day pre-departure test for the US, risking any of us to be stranded on the way back if we test positive, jeez. Jesus Hank Christ. His middle name is Hank right? Anyway, Mexico, Iceland, the UK and a handful of others last year had the right idea, they removed all restrictions months ago, like a year ago. But the rest of the world? Holy Moses. Stupid uploads to glitchy apps and websites are one thing, but pre departure tests as well. The countries that had that were off of my list from the get go. But again, things always being so ironical, of course now that a lot of restrictions*'be' gone, it's stupid expensive to fly now. At least the hotels in Europe and Asia*are still reasonably priced, unlike here in North*America where a hotel for one night in Burlington Vermont is over $300 dollars. Vermont? Burlington? WHAT?! WHY?! Dear God, why? I get it, Montreal is super expensive now, at least $300 too, but Vermont? Connecticut? Maine? Puh-leeze. Sure, the southern states are cheaper, but not by much, but they're*hot as hell now, not going anywhere near those places and apparently*there's no water in the southwest, great. So why is it expensive then? Fuckin' hell. Montreal being expensive makes sense, plenty of hot escorts, great strip clubs, fantastic food, European architecture and culture, but Dallas? Denver? Even New Orleans should be cheaper than what it is. See'Mon. Don't get me started on Atlanta. *.

While we're on the topic of Europe, let me just put in my 2 cents about Brexit. Fuck those British fishermen. I laugh my ass off when I see videos of them regretting their Brexit vote. You made that bed fuckers, now sleep in it. Ha! They ruined the UK by voting for Brexit, for entirely selfish and self-serving reasons, and now their lives are destroyed*and the British*fishing*industry is in shambles. Good for them. Idiots. I've been to the UK many times, and it was always better off with hot young Eastern European*babes in it. Now all you got are pasty, good for nothing, entitled, lazy buck toothed margaret*thatcher looking bitches there. Ha! No wonder most of them are on strike, because all the actual hard working people were forced to go back to Europe, all the lazy fuckers left want to get paid for doing nothing. Idiots. Lazy fat fucks always living off the government. It's like people never learn, look at the Greeks, lazy*asses there damn near destroyed their own country. Who the fuck gets to retire at 45 and then collect government checks for the rest of their shitty lives? Who the fuck are they to be able to do that? Say what you want about the Asian countries, but they got nothing there. I mean nothing. No social security, no safety net, zip, zilch, zero. From day one, you're on your own, your government*aint going to do shit to help you. That's a huge reason why those fuckers are so hard working there. Believe me I know, I was in the worst of it in Vietnam those years. Through it all, their work ethic never changes. *It's amazing to me sometimes how the rest of the world, from Asia to Africa, South America, it's survival, people hunker down and move on. They shut up, work and move on. But here in the west, people just fucking ***** and moan. ***** and moan. Got a job? Sure, but not good enough. It's got to have better benefits! Living in a house with a backyard, frontyard, attic, garage, and 4 cars, one each for your 2 kids? Yes, but not good enough! Got to have a pool! Own a boat? Sure, but the lake's drying up. Boo hoo. Just sell the fucking boat asshole. Jesus Hermione Christ, who in this day and age gets to own a fucking boat anyway? What are you? A Russian oligarch? God almighty. *.

I know it's weird for me to rant about this stuff in the Prague section of this vaunted forum, but bear with me guys, I think of these Prague pages as my hobbying 'home' if you will. It was Prague so very many years ago that taught me what real, consistent, excellent, sustained hobbying can do for a man's psyche. * Anyway, it's been fucking ages. Freakin. Fuckin. Ages. But it's almost time for me to go out there and get some snatch. With summer travel a whirlwind of chaos, high costs and all that bullshit, I'm going to have to think about*the fall. As much as I love Prague, every bit of research I've done, it all comes back to Thailand. Cost being the main factor, but accessibility, options, and so much more, it just makes more sense to go there. I'm way older now than I was when I began this hobbying journey, with both time and funds running out, I can't be too picky no more. Pussy is pussy. There was that one time in FKK Mainhattan, this borderline racist german fella was making disparaging*remarks to me about Thailand, and I was thinking 'Man, this guy doesn't know what he's missing'. Thailand ain't all ladyboys and ping pong shows. The great variety*of how Thai girls look makes it a viable and more affordable option than say Japan or South Korea. Can't afford Japanese nuru AV type massages in Tokyo? Get some in Bangkok, and some of them even look like they could be Japanese. Want them to be more brown? Plenty of that too. *.

I miss Prague though, or in my case Prague of the past. Most of you guys don't know about 'Best-Privat' but Holy Moses. It was beyond words. Sublime. Those girls. Forever seared into the folds of my brain. If I get to fuck another thousand girls before I die, I'll still remember them. Even independent escorts I met in Prague all those years ago, of course with how time works, they're older now than when I first met them. Would I still see them today, sure why not? But given younger options, and since cash is king, funds and time are tight, got to get tighter pussy ain't it? Let me paraphrase McConaughey "I get older, but the girls stay the same age". Ha! But still, it's hard to beat a good MILF. I'd pay good money to fuck a Cherie Deville type. I kinda got something like that in Auckland, not half bad. Simply Top in Vienna seems to have a supply of good MILF's, piques my interest. *.

Spent weeks to months trying to figure this shit out, what countries have what restrictions and when they'd be rescinded and all that shit. Slow ass, drip drip drip removals of restrictions one by one, but just in time for summer! Great! What a coincidence because that's when it's the most fucking expensive time to fly! Wow, it's like they planned this shit! Not April or May when it was way cheaper and I was dying to get poon in Europe or Asia. Don't even get me started on that stupid dumb shit 1 day before your flight back to the US pre departure test thing, Jesus. With that bullshit requirement it had me looking into flying back via Niagara Falls or Tijuana and just walking over the border. For a while I even had this dumb shit idea to maybe travel domestically like dallas or Denver. I must've been out of my mind desperate to just*get on a damn plane, and sure as shit I wouldn't be able to hobby in those places, nothing affordable or easily*accessible*anyway. San Francisco and Honolulu were options too but Jesus H Christ, they're expensive, and it aint just a summer thing, or a travel chaos thing either. For some inane dumb shit reason, San Franciso, Honolulu and Seattle are just stupid expensive. I mean why? Jesus man. Sure, they have their uniqueness and*touristy shit but in the end, it's mostly like any other US city. I can't wrap my head around paying $300 a night for a basic hotel room in Honolulu. So it all goes back to Europe or Asia, but of course, chaos in airports then and strikes in europe, heatwaves, fires, drought, bla fucking bla. So fine, if I got to wait till the fall for Europe, so be it, whoop de fucking doo.

I just can't justify to myself the cost premium of about a grand to get there in July versus the much cheaper option of waiting till the fall. I'm lookin at google flights everyday and nothing is really affordable. The slow drip removal of restrictions one by one by freaking one by every other country in the world the last few months have been like the worst case of blue balls in the history of mankind ever. In Thailands case, it was the quarantine shit, test and go, don't test don't go, vaccination lanes, then an easier Thai pass, medical insurance, whatever 'sha' hotels were then now fucking finally no Thailand pass. And even this country in it's infinite wisdom finally got rid of the pre departure test, but guess fucking what? Travel chaos! Idiot airport fuckers going on strike, not enough pilots, pilots overworked, boo hoo you pieces of shit, cry me a river. Douchebags are paid so much money to fly around the world, stay in nice hotels, have their dicked sucked by hot stewardesses while machines fly their tin cans, but they're bitching and moaning now? Jeez, some people have no clue how lucky they are. And the government bailed them out for the past 2 years and now they're caught with their pants down? Jeez. In the midst of all this, when I can finally freaking fucking fly, it's so Goddamn expensive it's just beyond me. I spent so much time buried in websites about restrictions all over the world, travel websites, news feeds, just dying, waiting for less restrictive travel, and when it finally fucking happens, it's expensive as shit. And I got to wait another 2 to 3 months, after damn near 3 years? Just kill me. Even that ridiculous EU digital covid thing is going away country*by country but what's the point when airfare is through the roof now, and when European airport staff don't even want to work, cause somehow*even though*they have jobs when most people are unemployed*these days, they ain't happy. Fuckin' typical. Here's what I predict is going to happen, I finally get to go, and by September / October, the US government*decides*to reinstate the stupid pre-departure test thing, I end up testing positive*and I'm out another coupla*grand to cover the costs of being stranded. Great. Again, please just kill me. *.

Man, like those bitches in London doing' the rail strike. Man, really? Your government gave you money to keep running the last 2 years and now when shit's trying to get back to normal you go on strike? I say fire those fuckers and give the jobs to people who actually want to work. Give me that job, sure as shit'd be better than what I do for a living now. Man, I'd kill for some job security and benefits right now. It's exhausting to have to hobby on a budget, but I don't want to nickel and dime myself, but just as I'm saying that, here I am trying to justify not paying an extra grand for an earlier trip to Thailand. It's a no win situation. Spock was right. But Kirk never believed in the no win scenario. Things have changed a lot, I've known for years now I'm an old man, but now I feel older than ever. *.

I*feel like going on google flights and paying 800 dollars for a one way trip to San Francisco, paying $350 for one night in a shitty hotel*by Union Square*and then after walking for about 2 hours, jump off the Golden Gate. Fuck My Life. Goddamn fucking hell man, what's it got to take these days for some paid pussy? Jeeeeesus. See'Mon. Tell me Jesus H Christ. What's it fuckin' take? You know, as bad as it is, I try to console myself that even other monger paradises are still not at 100%. Curacao's new campo doesn't exist yet, Singapore's geylang is back but not at 100% just yet. But those of you lucky fucks at places where there is some poon acitivity now, are pretty set. If you're in Thailand, Vienna, Prague, etc. Man, don't fuckin leave, don't ever leave. Just keep fuckin'. Stay there, get a job there, make it your home, and keep fuckin'. Don't be unlucky like me, don't be cursed like me. *.

I tell ya fellas, I've been alive for a long time, been through hell and back. I'm so old, I remember how to use a rotary phone. Been to over 150 towns, cities and villages round the world, been to about 80 countries, some that don't even exist anymore today. Some so long ago, that if I ever went back, I wouldn't even*recognize it no more. But only about half of the states in my own country. Fuck, if more states did what Nevada has, but cheaper, I'd be a little happier here. Man, I can't even say I get it now. Everybody knows, it makes total sense, everyone wants to be Canadian, Scandinavian, Singaporean, Swiss, Dutch or New Zealander, cause those places are as perfect as countries get, with no problems, streets paved with gold and lined with cheese. Everybody's happy, safe, rich, edumacated. It's not that I wish I was dead, though*that's a part of it, it's more I wish I was never born in the*first place. It's been a long, slow, painful, sad life. My PTSD doesn't help either. Hell and back fellas. Hell and back. All I got is fuckin'. Pussy, poon, snatch. That's it. It's all the joy I ever get to have. *.

I had a Bulgarian once at one of those London Soho walk ups. She was pretty damn good. Well worth the dough. It's ironical these days for me cause I betcha if nothing else, this is what's going to happen too. Right fucking now it's a great time to travel for people with Dollars, but sure as shit, as soon as I get on a damn plane, I betcha the rates are going to drop and it won't be as strong no more. Go figure. Story of my life. I'll cut myself some slack though, been to Canada a few times over the years and there was a time when it was bad enough that it was damn near dollar for Dollar, but I been there too when our currency was way stronger so I got way more bang for the buck. Same goes for Singapore. I think even the Euro, though it's never been weaker now against the Dollar, I wonder if I'll ever be able to maximise*on this shit. In another time, so long ago it might as well have been another life, this colossal douche and asshole I knew was giving me shit about how the Australian dollar*was equal to the US Dollar, bla bla bla. That was a short*moment in time so*very long ago, and it's never happened again, and now the aussie*dollar is weak as shit against the Dollar, so there, hope that asshole is dead in a ditch somewhere. Give me a Kiwi person any day, way nicer people. *.
