This mysterious bm who introduced you and the kingpin sounds like some sort of mad genius putting together a crack team of super mongers for who knows what nefarious purpose! Buddha help sissies everywhere if he finally manages to assemble them all at once!

I only ever met Paultain online but I felt like I knew him; for me is the Godfather of Ladyboy Mongering. Back in 2011 I was a member of a lot off different boards as I prepared for my first trip to Pattaya (which would also be my first solo trip) and I my third to Thailand. At that time I was only dabbling in the dark side but two BM's stood out amongst their peers as they were openly posting their LB experiences on the mainstream boards (Pattaya addicts etc). One of those was Alaskan Bear and the other was the legendary Paultain. He introduced me to LBP where his Trip Reports stood out amongst everyone elses as they weren't just a clinical list of conquests and fucks but real adventures, mixing mongering with mainstream activities. His ethos became something I would try to emulate and he was kind enough to write me a detailed guide that I'll post below. I picked up his self-published book - it used to be on sale in Cantebury Tales and all profits he gave to a Thai orphanage - and although the writing was lacking in professionalism and truthfully the printed word is not a good a format at Boards / Blogs (that allow different media to be inserted) it was still an entertaining read. I got the impression that his was a life well lived and I'm sad that I never got to meet him in person; a light that burns twice as bright burns half as long. (excerpt from my "Snoop Dawg and the Bakers Dozen" TR above | Paultains "lb bar guide" written circa April 2021 below) Well let me tell you about a few places, starting with Walking Street; Just above Pattaya Beers Garden, there is a new LB bar that just opened called ‘Koyo No 7’, I personally haven’t been in there as it just opened during my last trip, and didn’t know about it until I came back. But good reports about it, not being pushy etc. A lot of guys who are not into LB’s go there just to chill, play a game of pool with them, and have a laugh. I personally avoid ‘Jenny Star Bar’ and the ‘English Bar’ which is on up the street a bit, as here a lot of hard core drugies/ thieves/ and scammers hang out among the good one’s, and simple hard to tell which is which. Another one to avoid is the ‘Limaquay’ (spelling) on Soi Diamond, which LB mongers never go in there, as it is a place famous for scamming drinks/ bill padding/ and very pushy. A favorite of all LB mongers was the ‘EZY Bar’ in Soi BJ, now closed but I personally never took any from there, as Karl the owner, is an old mate, and always famous for his music archives, which is in the thousands, and any thing you mention to him, he will play it just with one click, even though it was too rare for any body to have. He is now moved too his missus’s bar, ‘Famous Bar’ in Soi VC. Most of his old staff can be found in the ‘Orn Bar’ among the beer bars in Soi Diana. Lita his missus, can have a party there at a drop of a hat, including a pig on a spit, for just over 4000 baht, and she also run’s the ‘Famous Road Trips’ which I’ll report about that later. She also has a special promotion going…… 699 baht includes barfine plus shortime room plus tip for the girl. This is afternoon special from 14:00 to 18:00. Not my cup of tea, I don’t think much about the selection there. Two story, with pool tables upstairs, and a large out side balcony, were a few tables are, to chill out. No hassle, and drink are reasonably priced, and no bill padding. La Bamba is actually a LB only bar in Soi Yamoto, it's pretty much laid back, and your not pestered in there, and because of that the LB mongers like to meet up there, where they can have a laugh and a drink without interruption, before going else where. Then going back into town, you have the ‘La Bamba’, like I said it’s a meeting point, and no hassle, and drink are reasonably priced, and no bill padding. Can be a good laugh in there, but again as it’s a place I regularly go to, I never take from there also. Some guys who are not into LB's go in there for a quite drink, and to have a bit of a look round, and a laugh. Some find it intimidating to go inside these places, but after doing so, they find that they are more intimidated by you. Before getting to La Bamba, there is the ‘Obsessions/Kitten Club’ on Soi Pattayaland 3, which is a large ago-go bar which is split in two, one side is for girls, and one side is for LB’s. I’ve only been in there 2 times my last trip, but never before, as I heard a lot of bad reports about the place. Not from the LB’s, in fact far from it. The problem is the old fat ugly LB mamasan there, on the LB section, which is always hustling drinks, pushy, and sometimes abusive, if your not buying drinks fast enough, and also bill padding. Some good and very feminine LB’s in there. But back to La bamba, and up the same street there’s the ‘Stringfellows’, no trouble with bill’s or drinks, but the LB’s can be quite intimidating if you were a newbie, as they are quite hard core, but a good laugh at the same time. Like most of the bars I mention here, a ST = 300 for the room and 700 for the LB. LT = 500 bar-fine and 1000 for the LB. Some guys might pay more, but that’s my going rate, and for most of the guys. Next would be the ‘Orn Bar’ in Soi Diana which like I said, has the old staff from the EZY Bar. Then on up to Soi Bukhaow, and to one of my favorite bars, the ‘PookSwan House’, which has a new upstairs section to chill out. I’ve seen this place paced out even in low season, which all sorts of people, gangs of young newbies, that didn’t know it was a LB bar at first, but soon didn’t mind, as they are a good laugh in there. Young, middle aged couples, right up to old age pensioner couples, with zimmer frames. Basically a tourist trap, because of the LB novelty. Most of the LB’s in there are quite feminine, and very passable, and never a bad report about them. Then just down the Soi Bukhaow a little you come to the ‘Pink Panther Bar’ which is a mixed beer bar, but the LB’s out number the girls there. Never been before, but all good reports about it. Then to Soi 8, the ‘Blue Dragon Bar’. Classified as a LB bar, but doesn’t hit it off until around 10-11pm, as they are mostly freelancers there, and don’t show up until that time. No problems with them, except there are one or two in there that think their superstars, and try it on, asking for a ridiculous amount of money for ST, but the rest are fine. As every body knows the rest of the bars in Soi 7 and 8 have a few LB’s working for them, which I personally prefer. Then to Pattaya Klang, you have the quite ‘Di Di’s Bar’, with 5-6 good LB’s, with a couple of girls. Very laid back, absolutely no hassle at all, and very friendly. On my last trip, an old friend of mind took very ill, and ended up in hospital for a couple of days, then went back to his hotel room, but couldn’t manage to get out of bed for a few days more. Two LB’s from this bar took care of him during that time, one would take care of him during the day, and the other took care of him in the evening, making sure there was always somebody with him at all times, regardless what went on in the bar. Next we go to Soi 6, and start at the ‘So What Bar’ owned by Hansi who is always throwing parties, for any excuse. A little bit more laid back than the other bars in the Soi, drinks reasonable priced, and never a problem with the bill. Just past Pook’s Bar, there is the ‘Lucky Love Bar’, again owned by Hansi, who is a really nice guy, and the same rates like in all the bars for ST & LT. Then back up to ‘Pook’s Bar’, another one of my favorites, which I’ve bar-fines a couple from there. Good place for a meet up also.

You made a typo @Sylvester so I've corrected it for you. ;)

I think it was JPP over at LBP that gave her a very favourable review recently. She's certain quite striking.

If I remember correctly there's only limited flight from Buriram Airport to Bangkok my bet is she would get 4 bus.

Thanks for all the tales from the dark side! Is there another update pending in this one? I get the feeling there is more that you could share?

I totally get that. I think in recent years the Thai girls have got a lot more savvy about the internet / forum etc and even asking for casual photos can raise red flags for them which is why my TR's don't often feature photos and very rarely nudes.

Thanks for the TR. I'm glad you ended up with Phoebe Cates again it's got a nice symmetry to it events have come full circle. Most people will never know how much effort goes into posting each update nevermind a full trip report, you've got nothing to prove and no need to justify yourself to anyone. See you in Lisbon!

You must be getting old, Valar Dohaeris would not have balked rugby tackling a pretty young sissy and wrestling him to the ground to add to his harem!

These 2 look seriously pissed off! lol

What have you done to the poor lads ass that he's unable to sit on a chair properly!

Stay strong bro! Su su! Remember the pain may end at deaths door but so does any pleasure and there's so much to enjoy in this world. Things will get better. x

I'm here in Emmy's Bar with 2 other "legends" @Quinn and Uncle @jimbo34 plus a load of other great guys @blind boy grunt and Alain Breizh, @PadThaiBoy, Tony Soprano... Plus many others. Keeping the fire burning.

...

I'll look into it. Maybe I'll do a directors cut post-trip, or something elsea bit different.

Merry Christmas, but why am I dancing with you instead of one of the sexy divas? 555

https://www.thestar.com.my/aseanplus/aseanplus-news/2021/11/08/over-20000-tourists-enter-thailand-since-nov-1-15-tested-positive Very few are testing positive though. I rather run the risk of going away then definitely having to stay at home for three weeks with nothing to do.

Wishing you a full and swift recovery Annat!

I think they started running a boat again, that'd be worth looking into. It's roughly 2hrs to BKK and 3hrs from BKK to Hua Hin by road. You can do it by minibus for more or less 300 baht, for a taxi it'd probably be 3000+ baht. You'd probably want to stay near the Bintabaht area. I put together a map a few years ago, it may be a little out of date but more or less accurate. https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1nSQ1KNGTb5xRFv9v4ib6-TSCpZE&usp=sharing It's also a good stop over if you want to go to Koh Samui, you can get a coach down to the Chumpon then the ferry across. Much less expensive than Bangkok Airways. That trip was a favourite of mine a few years ago but I think I'd be temped to to go to Koh Samet or Koh Chang (never been to the latter but they do have LB's there) if I wanted a short escape from Pattaya these days now I know a little more about Thailand.

I remember when The Game (by Neil Strauss) was published, every halfwit who'd ever read FHM considered themselves a PUA, and starting using terms like Negging and Peacocking without fully understanding what they meant like children acting out scenes from their favourite tv shows. There was some interesting pop-psychology mixed in with the half/quarter truths but the whole thing was one long pick-up line itself, he even got one of his cronies to write a letter that was included as a chapter providing social validation by singing Neil's praises. But yeah, confidence is definitely the key.

With Compliments... It seems to me that many BM's simply don't know how to talk to women. I'm no silvertongue devil, and there's no secret I've learnt that will allow me to talk my way into to any girls panties, but I'm willing to give it a go. Sure women fantasize about a fella with movie-star looks, but in the West having some game just as sure a way to getting laid. Pattaya is like shooting fish in a barrel, however BM's like Rom, Kendo The Sith know that if you've got a bit of raport with the girls you'll both have a much more enjoyable time. We all notice how the girls swoon when some adonis walks into a bar, the old cynics declare in that their baht is just as good as anyone else's but there's more to it than that. Whether it be the most seasoned bar girl or the civvie who just claims to "freelance sometimes", they are not just coin-operated fantasies but real people who appreciate being treated as such. I truly despair of guys who complain about the time they've been in such-and-such bar and have been ignored, when with the slightest bit of effort you can be surrounded by honeyz. The thing I love about Thailand is that with a little bit of initiative you can pick up hotties from shopping malls or some small corner of deepest darkest Issan - more often than not all it takes is a smile to break the ice. I think that was what I liked about the Pinays so much, that I found so refreshing, the need to build a bit of rapport before bedding them. Granted so long as you're not a total douchebag they are pretty much a sure thing but there is an element of the unknown. And in that situation a bit of banter and some compliments that would seem disingenuous in the West are truly appreciated in the East. I recall one of the ladyboys I had arranged to meet in Manila complaining that her glasses make her look like a librarian, I countered with "a sexy librarian" and told her that "smart is sexy" (she was a university graduate). Anne, feeling insecure looking like (in her own words) a librarian. Conversely the Thai's seem to have an heirachy of compliments they give; everyone is aware of the (ironic) shouts of "hansum maaan!" as a potential victim walks down Soi 6 but in more tender/intimate moments Thai's will often pay their man a more honest compliment and I've noticed there is a distinct order: 1. If you're a young stud you may get: "You're handsome." 2. For those of us who are no-longer so young and were never what you'd call conventially handsome but keep in shape you may get: "You have nice body." 3. If you're neither handsome or fit but treat the girls nice you'll get: "You're jai dee " (literally good heart) 4. After this the girls are grasping at straws for a compliment, one I remember with a smile was one Steve (former owner of Stringfellows) recieved from Pancake when he was managing Dark Side Bar in BKK for a while was having to be quite the hard-ass with the lazy staff members: "You smell nice." i.e. You may not be handsome, or have a nice body and you're a bit of a grouch but at least you have good hygene. 5555 Kendo and the staff at Darkside December 2012

Thanks Rom! I've only just spotted this, I'm obviously not on the ball. Thanks for hosting this interview, let's do the next one in person over a few bevvies, with a gossip of ladyboys to keep us company.

I only know Kendo so he would get my vote by default, thought that's not to say he doesn't deserve the recognition. He raised TR's to a new level when he joined LBP and later moved over to BKK from the UK to be closer to the ladyboys. There's a reason why he featured in the Sky Living documentary, is a Mod at LBP, and is regularly asked to attend/compère/judge at major events.

Looks like she's posted another - not watched it yet but the first two have been really well put together (much better than most Vloggers)

OMB! Gays in Thailand. Whatever next!?!
