Bangkok WITH A MIXED GROUP OF FRIENDS
[QUOTE=RyoSaeba;3016678] out of the blue, an occasion to visit Bangkok presented itself. But it's going to be outside the range of my previous experiences[/QUOTE]As previously explained, this was a quick visit (my fifth).
I'd done Thailand both solo and with a wingman, but this time I was with one of my best mates and two lady friends. And none of my companions had ever been to Southeast Asia, much less in a gogo bar environment.
We only had 3 nights in town. My plan was to take them to Soi Cowboy on the first evening and, if they enjoyed the scene, to take them to Nana Plaza on the last night.
And that's exactly how things unfolded.
I had a few other options at the ready, but ultimately, I felt that the gogo scene was the best choice given the circumstances and interpersonal relationships.
Just a few hours after landing, we entered Soi Cowboy, where we first visited Baccara (a little dead on that particular evening), then Suzie Wong (where our ladies observed in rapt attention the pussy-shooting-darts show), and finally the ladyboy bar Cockatoo, which was easily the one place where my friends had the most fun.
I think it was my second time ever in a ladyboy bar, and I had a great time too: the Boys were all a little wild / crazy, they spoke better English than the average gogo girl, and were very engaging. I do think, however, that being with farang ladies made a certain difference in how our group was perceived and treated.
It's worth noting that all my companions thought that the guys were better looking than the girls they had seen in the two previous regular gogos.
That opinion eventually changed the last evening after we interacted with some very pretty girls in Nana Plaza, but on that first night, the quality around Soi Cowboy was quite low.
Between gogo nights, I took some time for a quick, discreet visit to 7-Heaven BJ bar in Soi 33.
The lady managing the entrance spoke good English, the available choices of providers, services, and rooms were explained clearly, and overall the process was very straightforward.
In the looks department, the girl I selected was short and a little chubby, but had a cute face, which was more than enough for me considering the venue and cost.
The last evening, after a very good dinner and a couple of glamorous rooftop bars, we showed up in Nana Plaza around midnight, not entirely sober.
It was immediately evident that Nana had a much livelier atmosphere than Cowboy both inside and outside the gogos: we started off in a first-floor bar the name of which I can't recall, and the fun level quickly escalated.
Minutes after seating, our ladies were invited by a gogo girl to jump on stage, and after a little prodding on my part, they accepted, dancing for a few minutes and generally having a blast, also doing tequila shots with us and the mamasan and a few other girls.
After that we entered Spanky's, which was completely packed with girls and patrons having riotous fun. Seriously, I don't think I ever stepped into a gogo so charged with positive energy and fun vibes.
And after Spanky's the night continued in a blur: for sure we spent some time in Butterflies, and also in another gogo in the top right corner, where some fully naked girls were soaping themselves on stage. Throughout, we chatted with the mamasans, and kissed and fondled the girls, while our ladies were being constantly complimented for their looks, which of course worked wonders for their self-esteem and the general enjoyment of the whole group.
By the time we called it a night, it was a little past 3 am, and I realized that while most of the lights around the Plaza had been turned off around 2 am, some gogos were still letting customers in.
None of us bar-fined a girl for sex, which was to be expected all things considered, but my companions all agree that Bangkok shifted their stance on various issues of paid sex and sexuality. As for myself, I can now attest that the gogos, visited with a mixed group of friends, can definitely be a lot of fun, and even reveal some new aspects of the whole Bangkok experience.
That's it.
So, not really a post full of info or news about paid sex per se, but hopefully still useful or interesting to some of you.
I'll visit Rio de Janeiro soon, where I plan to live the sort of single-male experiences which will lend themselves to a more mongering-heavy post.
Have fun,
Ryo.
