Western Style Strip Clubs
I was told by a girl in Makati that their are Western style strip clubs in Makati / Manila but they are hard to find like an underground club.
Have any of y'll found a Western style strip club in Makati / NCR area?
I would love to visit a club like that here.
Thanks.

Are there abundant Skinny filipinas (as seen on Monger in Asia porn site)
Have never been to phillipines but have always wanted to visit. I prefer the skinny, flat tummy type of girl. The hungrier they look the better. There are tons of girls that look like that in Thailand and especially in Cambodia. I've read there are alot of thicker girls with tummies there, but are there plenty of skinny looking girls? I like them as well <25 yo.
Also I've never been there before. For a first time visit, should I spend the whole time in manila or should I travel to get the full experience. I am primarily there to find spinners, but it would be fun to relax on a beach somehere similar to pattaya where I can do the beach and still bang girls. Any tips or itinerary ideas?
Top 10 post-trip observations and musings.
I've been home for 6 days now and I think this is a good time to post some random thoughts, observations and lessons:
1. Everyone in the Philippines speaks English. Except Grab drivers. LOL.
2. Speaking of Grab, addresses in the Philippines, or at least Manila and Angeles, are less than definitive. Google Maps is not always your friend, and locations often have multiple names and addresses. It was not common, but till annoying, that I would input an address into the Grab app and get dropped off a block or more off target.
3. Grab vs GCash: I was able to attach my US credit card to my Grab wallet. A big convenience. I was not able to do so with a GCash account, and only realized why when I found out that according to GCash's TOS, the service is only available to Philippine citizens.
4. Its hot. Not warm, not temperate, not balmy. HOT. Ave mid-day temps during my 16 days was mid-90 degrees.
5. Lady boys are present, essentially as described in various discussions and reports. I had no problem spotting them, but then I was never drunk during my visit. Those that I did talk to were freindly and quick to self-identify. Never got the sense that a LB was trying to dupe me.
6. My inclination to ignore the drama-posts here about fuglies, overpricing, Koreans, and any other attempt to whine and comlplain that we no longer have the Philippines of the 1980's was a good call. I had no problem finding women I wanted to bang, at prices I was happy to pay and (mostly) had the experiences I was hoping for. Lesson: enjoy what is available to enjoy, and don't waste time thinking about what was available in the past.
7. Hotels:
-Price is not always indicative of quality. Read reviews, send emails with specific questions about specific needs in advance.
-Bring a travel size bar of soap and shampoo. The 1st hotel I stayed at had a shower gel dispenser in the shower that was empty. And it stayed empty while I was there.
-You are almost always within 1-2 blocks of a 7-11 which will have needed items like soap, shampoo, power adapters, and bottled water.
8. Currency exchange: NEVER buy PHP's at US airports. They will tell you all kinds of reasons why you will spend more when you get to the PH. These are lies. Buy a small amount when you land if you need it for a Grab or Taxi. Buy more from a location near your hotel, or from your hotel if offered. The best rates I found were in a booth in Mall of Asia.
9. Do the online eTravel forms a day before you fly. Immigrations and customs at NAIA were fast and easy (for a US citizen).
10. I found many more girls who (tried to) insist on condoms than I expected. Despite the comments posted by others, I found I had to ask up front and with specificity before I pulled the Bar Fine trigger.
There probably other observations I could make. But these are most significant I can think of.
Will I return? Most definitely. But it may be 6-12-18+ months before I can actually schedule it.
All in all, I allocated a generous budget of $10,000 USD for my 16-day trip, including Business Class air fare, and I came in within budget. But to be sure, I could have made less expensive decisions if needed.
