How can they possibly be accurate. You continuously post about 'at breakfast an acquaintance of my friend who visits three times per year told of a third hand report etc etc etc'.
Plus human being tend to 'flavor' things. I know of one resident farang who tells his friends that he enters every boy he takes home, he demands it, and he takes boys at least twice a week, for many years. Bar boys all tell that the farang in question can't get an erection, not ever, which would tend to fit with the guys numerous permanent medical problems.
I agree with ICON, the majority of mamasans with any brain will be a little careful what they say, but not all.
Commissions to mamasans and captains, well I never, who would have thought it? Old news, and what else would you expect from this type of 'profession'.
As ICON says the most reliable 'method', is to talk to the young man that you fancy. Learn enough Thai to start with some polite phrases, then, perhaps with a bit of a joke mention what your looking for, be polite but be specific, and end with 'can you do that'. If the answer is yes then the old 80/20 rule kicks in, but no guarantee. you win some / you lose some, part of the game.
