Yes, there was a place called the Safe House -- a sauna -- with its back door opening up right next to the State. Possibly the same location. The soi is not one of Bangkok's more salubrious, as it is filled with thinly-disguised (straight) brothels and crumbling buildings. Take care.

State cinema ...
 

-- For dir'ns. to THE STATE CINEMA - S'vit. soi 78. - vide the thread SUCK CINEMA, (UPDATES), posting #44..
- The SAFE HOUSE SAUNA - above thread, SC.(U.), posting #317., also this thread posting #275..

recently have been to Muffin 2/Muffil 2 which is called Men Factory Sauna on Silom. Poor "show", just weak. However, quite a mix usually coming from work or before going somewhere.
Have to say that Bangkok 10 has had some attention to it, with some repairs done and the junior staff are helpful and pleasant. Same cannot be said of rather large guy at the counter. Theme nights and naked zones.
Farose 2 soi 21 Ramkamhaeng - Saturday night. We arrived at 8pm and there were only another 5 clients which worried me but quickly filled up. Maybe 200-300 boys. It seemed cleaner that a few years ago. An old mansion of 5 floors and a "show" at 2am around the pool. They have a well patronised garden for further cruising. Naked zone also, big disco. No surprise that most were not taken by a chubby over 50 yrs guy (me) but I enjoyed enough success.

I should add that guys are not as shy as in years past. Group action
going on at all these places (and 39 also)

However, precautions not always being done. At Mens Factory I saw a very handsome uni student taking 3 other guys with no condom before urging me to do the same. Nearly did but I just imagined the possible contacts he must have had before my interest waned. At Farose 2 I though I could spot many with no bums, little tummies and sallow cheeks. I might be wrong but maybe they are all on meds. Imagine the bar boys and the risks they take. Medicine has enabled thousands of Thai guys to have a life and this is a very different scenario than when I first came here in the 90's

also, none of the guys I have recently been with has wanted to use poppers. Maybe a good thing. Are poppers and wasabi peanuts related?

The sallow cheeks, etc, could just as likely be a sign of crystal meth addiction. Seems everyone is getting "cool" these days.

Farose ii. Sauna ...

-- E&OE. as long time since I last visited.

did not think of crystal meth, not my scene. The only Krystal I know was on Dynasty!!
be right though. I had a friend who went on meds here in BKK and they gave back his life so that he now works full time. But those early patients did suffer from fat loss in the face. Back then I thought every second person had shallow cheeks. Just wish more boys said "no condom, no sex". As I have said before, take a visit to
Thailand's Official MSM website / Thai Red Cross AIDS Research Centre

or visit Red Cross clinic to see the newest batch of HIV + to scare you back into safe sex

Farose 2 now 260 baht on Saturday night, closes 6am

there is a presence of money boys asking for cash after being in a room. My BF strongly said no. No other problems.

Last night (Thurs) Dejavu sauna soi 122 Latprao. A few steps down from the main rd. Maybe 100 naked young men (and me!) for a party night. Many steps (wear sandals as the surfaces are slippery). A rugged sex show on the base floor and the sauna is open till after 2am. I will go again although no action for me. They tried to encourage others to add to the sex show of some of the staff. Hope we have gone past the old "macho guy fucking a femme" routine.
Tonight at 10 Bangkok for Halloween party. Nothing Halloween except the poster. Before a two man sex show (well, dancing not actual sex) there was, I think, a talk about HIV and importance of condoms. Highly commendable. Guy on the desk smiled so I will be back. Naked top floor but all seemed friendly. Had a good time with a great kisser.

Thanks for your reports-you seem able to find your way across this city.
Just a minor note; in Sukhvit 78-that Safe House ''sauna'' is still advertising and has different nr as new reported other. Which means 2 in a row

I can see how IT happens. Today I fell in love with my massage boy. Nothing really happened but there were winks, a little touching and I was in heaven all with the prospect of more to come. I big tip left. This was in a Pratunam street massage shop. Once home and telling the real BF I could see more clearly. Have to give it to him, very clever and well worked.

at the much improved 10 Bangkok last night. I spent a long time in the porn cinema sucking a nice guy (chubbier than my usual type). received a clap from the guys in the karaoke room (followed by kanom and a laugh). He was a great kisser and rather nicer than the guy in the garden who just wanted to push my head down and did nothing in return.
