Ha!

That's a good one!

The guy in the pic doesn't look 60-to-70 to me. Maybe it's a matter of pounds, not age.

In any case, as long as I don't malign gym queens (I probably never would, in fact), I don't see any cause to insult the less-fit, the overage, or both.

Self-awareness? But not aware enough to know when he is being ageist and plain rude!

I personally don't like thongs either but I don't think I have the right to make fun of people who do.

Sadly one of the prerequisites of being a moderator is not good manners!

I say good on him. People who have the confidence to be what they want to be whether fat, skinny or whatever should be welcome on Dongtan beach. I;ve spent many happy hours there marvelling at the whales in thongs and jandals (Ha!) dragging their big butts/bellies to the water and deckchair. I don't let it detract from my enjoyment. Good on them for gettin' on with what they enjoy.

I remember a guy who came daily for a massage a few years back, very bloated and obviously quite ill. Not a pretty sight but good on him too for getting what he needed. I thought thats what I'll do should I be struck.

Certainly don't want the fat, beauty, agist or whatever police interfering in what I do.

Now anybody want to talk about CRUISING FOR SEX

Hey Taoboxer, I think silly thingthongs on old men are quite entertaining. Sitting on the beach is quite boring after all, so looking at the beached whales and wrinkly old leatherbags cruising for sex on Dongtan beach makes the time go faster. Before someone accuses me of being ageist, I am a wrinkly old leatherbag myself, and keep my burqa on when visiting the beach.

Is this one more appealing, maybe?

Ageist AND fat-ist.

Oh, my!

The guy sitting down looks really nauseous or embarrassed. Actually, probably both.:eek:

The Thai guy seated is in fact one of the hotest / cutest guys on the beach. He works at the "yellow " chair concession and has a hot muscular body and cute face. He flirts a lot with all the farang - particularly the one's with big bellies ! I'm not sure however if he's gay - I suppose I should ask - but I'm really too shy :(

Ha Ha ha. Sorry I didn't see your replies earlier, guys. Thanks for the naughty picture, Icon. I don't have a problem with it, really. Obviously he thinks he's sexy and if he's got the confidence to wear a thong like that, then he might just be interesting enough for me to do him if we met. I have always had catholic tastes, I confess.

And guys, I don't have a problem with guys who don't like thongs on men of maturer years, either. I don't object to people saying what they think as long as they don't expect me to think the same way.

As for wearing thongs myself, I am just vain enough not to wear them until I have enough meat on my buns and sufficient muscle over the rest of my body to look better than a beached whale when I strut my stuff in my favourite pair.

And I really and truly don't have a problem with men who think surfer pants are going to hide their bellies (or any other full figure malfunctions). They have every right to look like one of Snow White's Seven Dwarves if they want to!

To return to cruising for sex, is the sexy seated guy in the picture really Thai? He looks more Caucasian to me. Him, I'd do in a minute.

What's the going rate for long time in Pattaya anyway? I understand it's quite high in BKK nowadays...should I try to hookup with some older guys before I come? At least the sex would be free:D

Those heavy farangs might have a lot of Thai guys falling all over them. I bet they'd be very successful in Babylon. It's mysterious who the real successful people are.

I am quite sure that heavyset men - even men with a lot of excess avoirdupois like the one in icon's picture - are sexually attractive to many younger Asian gentlemen and not simply because of any pecuniary considerations, either. I know this for a fact as I have been told by one or two of these younger Asians that I am too skinny for them. Here's my latest picture. Judge for yourselves.

Incidentally, this was a very lucky shot with my old camera so the only thing I did with Photoshop in this picture was to remove the background (it showed my extremely untidy living room).

-- Khun Taoboxer, being an Asian himself, might be expected to be MORE IN-tune with fellow Asians as to their preferences for companions.
- As a farang, and an occasional visitor to BABYLON SAUNA, it's been an often source of wonderment - and envy - to me how it is that the heavier farangs seem to attract the younger Thais and I don't.
- My vital stats. are ht: roughly 6ft.02.ins., & wt. roughly 10 stone, thus a Western BMI. of let's say 19.; possibly a bit too skinny! :eek:

I think the all-too-popular phrase "no sissies no fatties" in Thai on local personal ad sites contradicts the theory that young Thais are particularly into blubber.

We've already established that Babylon is not representative of society in general. It is a place for fetishists of a certain persuasion.

Do you steer clear of strong breezes, Khun Sextile?
