Chinese new year in Bangkok
Hi,
I am thinking of going to Bangkok during Chinese new year. Are all the fun places like nana plaza and Soi Cowboy still open? If so is it busier or quieter than usual. Sorry for the question but I don't know if Thai's celebrate Chinese new year or not.
An economic treatise on the price of pussy
[QUOTE=MrBigy;1116000]Yo players, anyone who pays 3000 baht to bang a peasant thai hoe is a loser, period. There is a great economic depression ready to set in. But none of you farang seem to understand this? Do you want BKK to become the next RIO? If you give these bitches 3000 baht today, tomorrow they will ask for 5, and then 10, you see what I mean? Why is the price of ass getting to be ridiculous? Lets blame the ozzies.[/QUOTE]I would like to rebut your statement that anyone who pays 3000 baht to a Thai working girl is a loser.
First, I have noticed that there is a correlation, in general, between the currency exchange rate and the price of pussy. In countries with a higher standard of living, prostitution is simply more expensive. The US and UK, with strong dollar and pound sterling, have the highest escort prices. Canada, Germany and Netherlands all have decently priced currency and pussy. And countries like Cuba and Thailand and Cambodia, with weak currency, generally provide the best bargains. In fact, an effective economic indicator to gauge a country's strength is what I call the "blowjob-index." The idea is that the value of a local currency generally maps to the cost of sex in that country. In other words, there's a correlation between the strength of the local economy and the price of a blowjob, just like the Big Mac Index. So in the UK, a blowjob might cost you $150-200, but in Amsterdam about $60-80. Then look at that country's currency. A hundred Pound Sterling would run about 175 bucks, a 100 Netherland Guilders (pre-Euro) would cost you $60. Voila! An index!
In fact, when Herodotus, the king of Lydia, invented the idea of a standardized coin, his metric for the value of his coins was based on the value of things like a day's wages as a laborer, a bag of rice, or a visit to a temple prostitute. Thus, the price of pussy in Thailand has more to do with the underlying economics of the country, than the generosity of patrons. Thus, prostitution is not only the oldest profession, but money was partially invented to serve that profession.
Thus, the price of pussy isn't really driven so much by the level of generosity of the sex tourist, so much as the fundamental economics of that country. If you want cheaper sex, go to Cambodia or Laos. Thailand and China have strong and emergent economies, so you can expect the price of pussy in Bangkok and Shanghai to keep rising over the next decade. The flip side of this is that the price of pussy in America will likely slowly decline over the next decade, along with its fortunes and in inverse correlation to the unemployment index. Even if you got every member of this board to agree to toe the line on costs, it would barely make a dent in the economic trend and the pussy index for Thailand.
Second, the typical head of household in the city of Isaan makes roughly $200 per year income. Thus, when the family sends a daughter to Bangkok to ply the oldest trade, she is in fact, sacrificing her life to save her family. Oddly, they'll send one son to the monastery to make up for the karmic implications of selling a daughter into prostitution. The typical Isaan girl sends home 20, 000+ ThB per month, or about 80% of her salary. So when I nail a Thai working gal, and she tells her the story about her family. It opens my heart and I'll tip her a few hundred baht, because it's good karma. In fact, when you use the term "peasant thai hoe", you are being both sexist and classist. It is better to see all human beings as fundamentally worthy of respect and dignity.
Third, I'll tell you a little story about why showing Thai girls respect can lead to a better outcome. I picked up an absolute 10 at a club a while back, and negotiated a long time. Her asking price was exorbitant. 6000 baht. And instead of bargaining her down to 3 or 4 like she was expecting. I said sure, why not. I was staying in a suite in the Shangri-la, and boy did her eyes pop out when she walked into the room. Then, instead of treating her like a working girl, I treated her with respect. And ordered a bubble bath, champagne with strawberries, and went down on her for two hours. (Many working gals, in order to withstand excessive sexplay, deaden their orgasmic response.) After she came. She admitted she orgasmed infrequently because her life was duty, she cried. And then suddenly, she bolted straight up and asked,"you know you're paying for this right?" After I assured her that I was paying her the small fortune in the morning, she did her absolute best to make me happy in return. Afterwards, I bowed with genuine respect and thanked her for a wonderful night of pleasure and we dozed off, holding each other in our arms. In the morning, she begged to stay and offered to fuck me. For free for the entire week that I was in town for a conference. All she asked was the right to go out and do a couple of short times in the evening, but promised she'd be back by midnight. The quality of the sex was so much better than paying for it, as she actually opened her heart and wanted me inside of her. She became a star in the bedroom, not a starfish.
Anyway, I had no intention of falling in love with her, so I felt bad toward the end of the week. Getting so much sex and not paying anything except providing room and breakfast, so I offered to take her shopping. She was careful not to ask for anything too expensive, to impress on me that she was not a gold digger. And of course, she wrote me quite a bit once I was home, hoping for a rematch.
So does that make me a loser? My advice to you is that you take off the blinders and see life in a different way. It's better to be generous and respectful, than being the kind of guy who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Anyway, I apologize for writing such a long post, as I didn't have the time to write a shorter one.
Regular Go Go's and Coyote Bars
[QUOTE=Amjeck;1116592]Has anybody successfully hooked up with a non-barfinable coyote girl at one of these places? I've tried many times exchanging numbers with them and offering them money to meet me during off hours and never gotten anywhere with them. I've found it to be a complete waste of time and will not patronize these types of establishments on soi cowboy. These type of "tease" joints should be shut down or boycotted. Just a bunch more of the Japanese nonsense that doesn't belong in the farang orientated zones. Soi cowboy used to be one giant farang dominated whroe house![/QUOTE]I agree, that's why I called attention to these 2 bars after another poster reported on how hot their girls where. There is probably a small minority of guys that like this type of bar. That's fine with me, to each their own. But what I object to is the bait and switch tactics employed by these establishments which is especially offensive to me because they are located on Soi Cowboy which as you write "used to be [and still is] a giant farang dominated whroe house!" Most customers do not know the set up when they walk in. All they see are some very attractive girls dancing on stage and hanging around, so they sit down order a drink and start buying drinks for the coyotes unaware that these girls are not barfinable. I understand that Midnight and Sahara are owned by the same business group. All I am saying is everybody should be made aware of the situation and then let the free market determine the winners and the losers.
I will be back in the big mango shortly. I am looking forward to it, but you won't find me buying drinks in these Coyote bars. That's for dang sure.
