General Reports

[QUOTE=Crocodilexp; 1546541]Where, in your opinion?

I read the forums regularly (and travel often sticking my nose into odd places) , and do not have said insight. Not Cambodia, it's in decline. Not the Philippines, in serious decline, with AC being a holdout. Not Laos, oh no, girlies are still quite underground. Not China or Vietnam for sure. Plenty of prostitutes, but quite mercenary, no trace of relaxed Thai GFE attitudes of the 1990s and early 2000s. Where! Burma? Indonesia? Saudi Arabia?

Sure, a fair number of prostitutes can be found in almost any country (with the exception of Saudi or USA) , but I haven't traveled anywhere that approaches Thailand's golden age (say, Pattaya in early 2000s) by a mile.[/QUOTE]What's your definition of "golden age" & relaxed "GFE attitudes?

The PI certainly has a rep for the GFE and LT sessions being allowed by the girls. If that is what you'ld liken to a "golden age" & how it was from 1990 to the early 2000's, then I'd say the present Siam is what I'd prefer and call a superior golden age.

I don't care for clingy, chatty, LT, or girls who want you to cum inside & impregnate them. I do enjoy BB, DFK & a nice friendly fun girl who will, apart from sexercise, keep her mouth shut & is willing to please. In today's LOS, & since the mid 2000's, I have had my wish come true & discovered this easy enough to obtain.

Moreover since that time to 2013 in my area of interest prices have remained at 1000 baht ST with the quality & quantity remaining fairly constant. So zero percent inflation. BTW low seasons IME tend to be more golden than high seasons.

Further, from recent reports since the protests of Suthep late last year, there is some anecdotal evidence that BKK is presently experiencing something of what may be described as a golden period. That is, reports stating how easy it is to pick up the more stunning ladies at the gogos, etc.

The Stickman article that got this whole "golden years" discussion going was based on one guy's experience. It made some silly comments about prices now being the same in BKK as in the West. It spoke of TGs today being fat relative to the thin days of a quarter century ago. If almost anorexic is your thing, then maybe that is golden. Others prefer girls with a bit of meat on their bones & a curve or two.

So maybe Mr Stick should look elsewhere in Asia, to countries that don't have the golden arches on every corner, & the culture remains relatively pure & uninfected with Westernism. Like it was in the alleged heyday of the Kingdom.

OTOH there's always Africa where those unhappy with present day LOS can have stunners for a daily banana.

Re "no trace of relaxed Thai GFE attitudes of the 1990s and early 2000s." How many ladies from these countries have you been with? I'd suggest trying more. I expect that in any country on this tiny ball we live on, & certainly the ones listed, one could find what I'd call a relaxed GFE. Though I'd settle for an exciting turned on horny girl GFE too. As it can be found amongst your mercenary nationalities in mechanical SG, where can it not be found?

[QUOTE=PinkPearl;1547098]That is, reports stating how easy it is to pick up the more stunning ladies at the gogos, etc.[/QUOTE]I guess that's where we differ. It's been many years since I saw stunning girls at agogos, or anywhere in the Farang nightlife areas. Simply compare any agogo with Siam BTS station, and it's obvious they only range from dogs to acceptable. Thai working girls have never been exactly top-notch looks-wise (good looking girls rarely get into the industry and tend to get out quickly) , but used to more than make up for it with great attitudes. Which is no longer the case, in addition to declining looks. On Sukhumwit, I find that the best looking girls these days are those good looking girls from 5 years ago. Just older and more jaded.

As for elsewhere in Asia (e. G. China / Vietnam) , sure you can strike a nice one once in 5-10 sessions, but since I'm still under 50, given those odds, I'd rather invest time, money & effort in actual girlfriends.

Of course, for someone who just flew in from Bumfuck, Iowa, available girls in Bangkok are absolutely amazing, but for a resident the decline is difficult to miss.

Very hard to believe.

And at best they only range from "dogs to acceptable?" LOL.

If you once drove a Ferrari Modena and now could only afford a brand new Porsche 911, would you then complain the Porsche was really a crap box? Yes, you might in fact IF you took the Ferrari for granted and became complacent, spoiled, and jaded.

Gogos, MP's & other types of P4P or FLs are not my thing, so I won't comment on what I haven't experienced. Even with the street scene I am not out there 24/7/365 & restrict myself to a very small area.

Within the past 3 years I've picked up some of the hottest girls I've ever seen anywhere, including SG, Siam, MBK, tens of thousands of online porn images, etc. These were found at the Nana parking lot NEP area vicinity, working from the street as FL. I had no real problem with their attitudes as they were polite friendly & willing to please, including BB sex. Of course people living in BKK who only occasionally visit the scene, just like short visiting sex tourists, may easily miss finding such gems. If you want to do the crime, you need to put in the time.

As for GFs, they are anathema to me, as are any clingy creatures who can't stop chatting & get physical. So I prefer to find keepers in P4P, often those fresh off the farm who speak no English or are deaf & dumb, but happy to spread their legs for what is, to them, a lot of baht. The infamous lower Suhkumvit area will forever attract this type of girl.

I would appreciate it if some of you gentlemen would take the time to reply to this post with any knowledge, experience or thoughts you have on this topic.

For some time I've taken 5mg of Cialis daily for a benign enlarged prostate. I'm not convinced it's doing anything for my prostate. It does affect my sex life. Without taking an ED medication the best I can manage is a semi-hard-on with the use of so called herbal or natural ED pills. With daily Cialis I can get a raging hard-on any time of the day or night, including immediately after ejaculating. Unfortunately as I bang away, even on a tight, sweet, young pussy, it feels as though my dick is rather numb, it's difficult for me to cum and my orgasm is a bit of a mild letdown.

So I've tried an experiment. I went of the Cialis for three days. It's supposed to take up to 36-hours for the medication to get out of your system. Sometimes I overdo things. Then I've experimented with Viagra (50mg) and Levitra (10mg). I write the brand names but I'm actually using good quality generics. Here is my observation. The Viagra takes a good hour before I notice any significant effects. I'm able to get a great erection from about 1 hour until about 5 hours later. As much as 12 hours later I still get some diminished benefits. I have more sensitivity, climax more easily and my orgasms feel more intense. Levitra seems to work faster. It takes full effect in 45 minutes or less, seems to last a little longer but while better than Cialis is not as good as Viagra for not diminishing the sensitivity and intensity of the orgasm. I also notice I get mild side effects from Levitra: a mild headache and a stuffy feeling but no mucus production in my nose. I can also get these side-effects with 20mg doses of Cialis. I get no unwanted side effects from the Viagra. However, even with the Viagra I would not describe the sensitivity and intensity as being as good as I experienced even ten years ago when I was not taking any ED medications (I'll be 63 this summer).

I take everything I just reported with a grain of salt. I'm one subject. I know which medications I take each time. While I have long experience with Cialis, my experiences with the Viagra and Levitra are much more limited.

I am having great fun conducting these experiments with a couple of local strippers who find it funny, and profitable, that I'm using them to advance science.

So my question is simple. I'd like to know what the good readers' experiences on this matter may be. I've done searches on the subject, and while there is a plethora of information, and nonsense, on the general topic, I've not run across anything that directly addresses what I'm trying to determine. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong places.

I appreciate any thoughts or information you may wish to share.

I appreciate any thoughts or information you may wish to share.[/QUOTE]All of your symptoms are quite common. They just tend to vary in intensity by individual, and by type of medication.

Loss of sensitivity is a common side effect. I have friends who report that, and I have experienced it with Cialis, too. Also when mixing C and Levitra as an experiment.

I find that Viagra causes me to become quite stuffy and flushed from about 45 minutes after ingestion, for about 30. 40 minutes. If I take too much I tend to get something akin to heart palpitations, for lack of a better word. Very unpleasant.

Levitra has similar, but much milder, side effects.

I like Cialis due to having less sever side effects, but in my case it takes several hours to begin having an effect. I need to take it over a few days to see significant effects. One funny story, similar to yours. Several years ago, during a trip to BKK, I took 20mg every day for several days. Things were OK but one day it happened. I was exiting the Skytrain with my ex-GF who I've always though was very pretty. We exited at MBK, she was slightly in front of me. I looked down at her shapely ass in her jeans and BAM! Instant tent pole and there was nothing I could do about it. Luckily my pants were slightly baggy. I was very embarrassed walking into MBK sporting major wood.

I find that all give me something of a headache and / or stiff neck later that night.

In your case, it sounds like you're on a bit too heavy of a dosage of C. Have you considered 2. 5mg per day? Or 5 every other day?

Cutting back the dose may work. I'll try that, starting with 2.5mg per day, because after a few trials with the Viagra or Levitra I'd go about 48 hours taking nothing and then do 5mg of Cialis. I'd still experience the diminished sensation. I know Cialis generally takes 36 hours to get out of your system, so you always have some of the last dose in your system when you take your next dose.

I think I just need to continue my experiment and try different doses.

I suspect you're right. There are great individual differences in reactions to different medications and doses.

Your story about walking into MBK with a raging erection is funny. Baggy pants or not, you know at least a few other ladies noticed.

Ok fellas. It's been a while but here is my report.

First off I apologize if it's a little lengthy. The thing is 1. I will be reporting on two areas. 2. I will be sharing some of the thoughts and experiences of my wingman who is not on the board. Going forward I'll refer to him as "Sam". In addition to this I normally don't bring up race and age as an important factor however IMO (and that of my wingman) in Thailand it was a relevant in some instances. That said on with my report.

So we decided to hit Thailand and Philippines this trip.

The first night we landed in Bangkok with plans to spend one night and then fly out to Philippines in the morning we have both been to Thailand before so we are a bit seasoned. Since we were only staying one night in BKK we decided to share a room at our old favorite the dynasty. We like that place because it has a sweet little alley way you can take the girls thru instead of doing the walk of shame thru the lobby.

Now both of us tend to to go for SWers as opposed to MPs, GoGos. Just our personal preference. To each their own. That said since we were sharing a room the first night we figured logistically it may be better for us to hit up a MP to get our rock off there as opposed to playing hot potato with the room while someone waited. We went to a place that was suggested to us off of soi 11. Sorry I don't have more details. I guess if I really liked the experience I would have written down all the particulars. Anyhow we are ushered in and agree to the 700 baht 1 hour full body massage with hope of a happy ending. I am in the room for 10 min and she pitches the happy ending. I ask her what she wants and she rep lies with 2000 baht. I say no partly because the fella who recommended the place told me he pays 1k and because I thought it was too much. Long story short we go back and forth for a while and settle on like 1300 and her frowning face. She scoots off and quickly returns with condom and towel. Right off she tell me certain positions are restricted. Like doggy style, her on top. And basically any other position I really like. 10 min into the position SHE wants to be in she asks me if I came? I didn't and told her so and the reason why. She said ok well hurry. I said no its fine we can stop and I paid her the 1300. She then extended her hand for a tip. Let's just say some facial expressions need no translation. I left and asked her to tell Sam I went back to the hotel.

When Sam met me back at the hotel he told me he had a similar experience. He was rushed and she tried to gouge him for 2300. We decided we need to find others girls for the night and this time freelancers. We grab some food and one of the street establishments. We like these places because we can eat a decent meal for like 100 baht and we get to see some regular local girls who happen to be eating there also.

After we finish eating its now around 2AM and we know our chances will begin to dwindle as the night goes on. Time to rock and roll. Within walking distance from our hotel there is a little area that seems to have a high population of arabic people. I tend to like the look many arabic women have so I always find myself going to that little area while in Bangkok (Another thing is the last time I was there a Thai girl stopped me on the street saying "please wait. My friend soon come back. She saw you earlier and wants you." long story short her friend was arab and we hooked up. Nice GFE). So w are walking thru the area and see like three women in nearly full Burkas standing on the side of the road. I think nothing of them until I one of them locked eyes with me. I thought "no, wait? Is she?". Next thing I know she grabs my are and says "short time 1000 baht?" I'm like. Hell yeah lets go! Later on that night Sam told me his thought process was similar to mine when he looked back and saw me speaking with her.

Anyhow the walk to the hotel and the stares we got was comedic gold. Imagine an Iranian woman in a full black burke walking down the street with a dark skinned black dude in the middle of a red light district in BKK. I could hardly contain my laughter. We get back to the room and I got to say I never thought I would ever see the day a woman would be stripping off a burka in front of me so we could have sex. The novelty of it all was a turn on in itself even if she was not the finest (about a 7) specimen in the world. That said I kept my cool because I knew I had a golden opportunity here about potential inside mongering info info in Iran. So I made sure I grilled her with all my questions before we started. For those interested she said its dead unless you know a local. Even then its really difficult in Iran. Nothing like Asia. I figured as much but Just wanted the inside scoop.

We had a nice session. No rushing, GFE, She came multiple times. After we were done I met up with Sam he met a girl and it was time to pass the room on over. I waited downstairs and chatted with the the local Lady boys while waiting for him. They always seem to be nice to converse with and at 4am basically they were the only ones left on the street.

After Sam was done we went back up and crashed. We woke up early to calls from the states. Apparently our flight was in the air the same time as the "missing" Malaysian flight.

We were off the next AM to Philippines. I will report the details of that trip over in the AC forum.

We returned to Thailand and it was straight to Pattaya. 1200 baht for a taxi. I hear shuttle is cheaper. IMO it is in every respect better than BKK. 1. Nicer more relaxed ambiance 2. Easier to get around 3. Cheaper prices for everything 4. Many more hotel or apartment options 5. The possibility of hooking up with Russian tourists. And a host of other reasons I have been to Patty before but decided to RTFF to get some hotel ideas. You guys rock but I didn't decide on any of the ones I saw mentioned. Sam and I tend to like more low key spots where we can fly under the radar. Yeah I know we are only visiting and will probably never see these people again. However we still want a little privacy when bringing girls back. Most of the ones mentioned were either on the main road or had bars downstairs with too much going on. That said when we got there I decided to take a stroll and price shop. Unfortunately for me we got there and noon and it was an inferno. I eventually won and found a nice apartment / hotel on a quiet side street off 2nd road callerathome apartments. The place seems pretty new, it has wifi, balcony, tv, ac, fridge. All the basic amenities. No bar downstairs and only two people at the desk at any given time who are usually paying us very little attention. For 900 baht a night we found it to be a steal Pattaya action as usual never disappointed. We had fun meeting girls on the beach road or just by chance. I will just mention situations worth noting.

One late night we were eating and a couple of girls were on their way home. They were a little on the chubby side but one was clearly better looking. I fell back and let my friend take her back. I couldn't take one for the team with the friend / cousin because she was just too large. He said he had a great time with her. The following night we bumped into them again only this time there were 3. And the new edition was to die for. Sam was now kicking himself in the head because he knew I would go after her and he couldn't pass up the lady he was with the night before we went back to the hotel and come to find out the girl was a newbie. Yep according to her I was the 2nd man she had been with. The next day Sam told me her friend told him the same thing while they were in the room."you friend I hope he be gentle". It was and it was a nice GFE.

Aside from working girls we did try our hand at regular girls. Both Thai and Tourists. Sam is of the opinion that I had an advantage over him with the Thai because of the way I look. First I'm black and there are relatively few black people in Patty. Many of the regular Thai women seemed to be curious. Most of the ones I was with said I was the first black person they were ever with. Often times I was stopped on the street and women asked to touch my skin. We get regular foot massages (legit) while in thai and at the end the always do a quick scalp massage. They ask if my hair is real. Once I say yes they say something to the other girls and they all ask permission to touch my hair.

I once asked a girl what was up with all that and she told me it may sound funny but the only time some of them see black people is on TV. White, Indian. People they are used to seeing. I am sure my color could have rubbed some people the wrong way but I didn't experience it.

The other factor he thinks helped me with regular girls is age. I am about 20 years younger than him. Personally I think money reigns supreme when it comes to motivating women but meh. Who knows. Now twice we did exchange info with regular girls a few times but no fruits. I think what works best is if you meet them online before coming so you can build the rapport and anticipation. Meeting a girl on the street and expecting to hook up first night probably won't happen.

Now the Russian tourists are everywhere and may have better luck with them as they are under the same vaycay time constraints. However and we had zero luck with them. Maybe we needed more time or to hang out in areas they were hanging out in; but it seemed hard to even get eye contact out of them. I am quite sure its possible to hook up with some ladies traveling in pairs or small groups but it just didn't happen for us this trip. I would encourage my fellow mongerers to keep that option open in the back of your heads because its totally doable (pun intended). I think a lot of guys are so focused on natives they don't consider that option. I have done this before in other countries it can be fun fellas.

The rest of the trip went without incident. We will no doubt be returning to Pattaya.

Sorry so long and for typos and stuff.

i too notice viagra takes about an hour to kick in. the lag time can be even longer if i've eaten a meal before going out for the evening. this can present a problem when i pull a stunner from a nana go-go bar and head for a nearby hotel. there just isn't enough time for the medication to work. i've found i can speed up the process by chewing the tablet before swallowing. it's a little bitter, but easily washed down with a drink. this reduces the lag time to about 30 minutes. i have also taken a 100 milligram tablet, and used a pill cutter to divide it into two dose of 50 milligrams. the resulting tablet is slightly fragile, but easily protected by wrapping in a square of toilet tissue. i've found a divided tablet takes effect almost as fast as a chewed one.

unlike mr. kausch, i find viagra slightly reduces sensitivity. this isn't necessarily a bad thing. when i'm sitting with a soi 6 hottie in pattaya who is trying to "convince" me to go short time by jamming her tongue down my throat and running her tiny little hand up my shorts to jack me off, there is always the risk of finishing too soon. with the viagra it's like i'm 18 years old again. i'm rock hard during all the preliminaries, but secure in the knowledge that when we get to the room i'll still be ready for the main event. the decreased feel never reaches the point where i don't enjoy myself. (unless i'm really drunk, but that's not the medication's fault.) i usually find i'm ready to pop at about the same time most girls are ready for the same. the sensation when i do is excellent. i'm usually a one-and-done guy, so i can't speak to how well it works for any encores.

as for delayed benefits, i find that if i take viagra two or three days running there is a residual effect in between doses. again, this can be fun when i'm sitting with a girl who thinks letting me "run the bases" will convince me to spring for a session. sometimes i'll duck away after lunch for an hour in some cool dark place getting all worked up, but not going any farther. (i'm a gentleman, of course. so i spring for a few lady drinks and tip the girl a few hundred baht for her efforts.) with a low dose of viagra on board the girl can play with mr. wood to her heart's content while i try to stretch a double into a triple. is there any better way to relax after lunch?

Bunky[/QUOTE]I should have done a better job of organizing one of the paragraphs in my post. Early in a paragraph I wrote that I have more sensitivity with the sidenafil and then at the end of paragraph mention that my sensitivity was greater ten years ago before I started taking ED meds. All these meds reduce my sensitivity; sidenafil the least.

You last observation is interesting. Are you taking the sidenafil at 24-hour intervals?

Thank you for sharing your experiences.

Don't overdo the dose of ED's, I have learnt the hard way. First time I tried it just for fun I popped a large 100mg or what ever it is. It was embarrassing to have to sit in the place after the deed was done and just try to make it go down. Had to push it down a pant leg and hobble out like a pirate with a peg leg.

One of the warnings is go to the ER if you get a prolonged erection or you can get permanent damage. I find more is definitely not better. When I was using Cialis once in a while I learned 10mg was better than 20mg. I'm on 5mg daily for my prostate. I'm going to try 2.5mg daily as Phordphan suggests. Also I'm going to experiment with 5mg Levitra and 25mg Viagra. A few years ago I started with 25mg Viagra. My doctor told me to double the dose if 25mg didn't do the job. I found I needed to do that. But that was years ago and I'm in better health now so 25mg of Viagra may be fine now. I'll report the results, but it will be awhile because I will try each dose a couple of times and I allow a couple of days between doses when I switch to a different med.

I always joke that the last thing I'm going to do if I have a four hour hard-on is go to the ER. I'm going to start calling every woman I know inviting them over. Viagra does a good job for me. I thing for me the desensitized is more related to frequency. At home if I pop a 50 and have one girl for the night I'm good. Do that a few nights in a row and it starts to desensitize the whole process. I'm about at my limit on this trip. Really need to take a breather.

[QUOTE=Paul Kausch]Are you taking the Sildenafil at 24-hour intervals?[/QUOTE]Not in the way that some Cialis users do. But when I'm on holiday the "as needed" dose sometimes works out to be a daily dose. (At least during the first week. After that I find time for other activities.) That's when I notice the Sildenafil has the lingering effect I described earlier.

If these numbers are nation wide, the decline in Bangkok is even greater as the tourism industry noticed travelers changed itineraries from Bangkok to other parts of Thailand.
