Bangkok gay saunas update
There is a scare monger around who reports places as closed that are still open, and others spread the scare by asking on all forums if it is true.
Here a list of saunas that are currently open (to my best knowledge) and a list of places that are closed, based on a previous post http://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2014/08/bangkok-gay-saunas.html

Appreciate comments if readers know better. I have been to 21 out of 27 reported open (in case of The Beach Resort one visit four years ago, in case of Fab Sauna when it was Bangkok 10). I have not been to Macho, M-Place, Orion, Out, Paradise, Safe House.
Best website for gay saunas in Bangkok is http://www.travelgayasia.com/bangkok-gay-saunas/
with addresses, telephone number, maps and reviews. I can now applaud them for quick reply to a comment (that place reported as closed is open).

enjoy your trip whenever you went,
ReplyDeleteas usual very comprehensive list, you should be commended for all that work, not unpleasant task I guess visiting all of those places
Beach Khon Kaen- good time but soooo dark, Could not get taxi back to hotel but a boy at the sauna took me back on his mtocy and then came to my room. Sent me pics of himself working at lawyers office the next day. No money discussed but I gave him 500 anyway. They said MunDay sauna closed. Dolpin massage also gone,
ReplyDeleteWater probs at Mens Factory so I went to Fab {Bangkok 10}. Only one other there. Renovating maybe . Farang fitting fire extinguishers. New owner>? They seem to have taken down the greenery and other setups. No pool. Funny boy from Lao maybe does massage.
a lot of interesting information on this blog. thank you. i'm a straight guy and frequent traveler to bangkok. i'm straight but i do love cock and usually hook up with ladyboys during my travels. despite not being sexually attracted to men, i have fantasies of going to a gay sauna and sucking as many cocks as possible while there. the thing for me is i want it to be as impersonal and anonymous as possible. my fantasies involve dark mazes with glory holes and an endless stream of takers. can you recommend a sauna or two where a straight cocksucker might feel comfortable? i'm caucasian, late 30s, fit, handsome. i prefer thai cock, but will suck whatever come through the glory hole.
ReplyDeleteAn absolutely straight man who loves cock?
DeleteMost saunas do not have glory holes (with different floor levels on both sides, to allow both participants to stand), at the moment only 39 underground and Male Box come to mind, and the glory holes were never busy, in fact I don't recall them ever being used.
I complain about darkness in saunas, and the darkest darkroom I know is Farose 2 (with plenty of activity, 10 pm to 2 am).
In Babylon you will encounter plenty of Farang, for anonymity and Thai cock I recommend local saunas.
thanks, christian. can you tell me if 39 underground has a dark room?
Deleteyou'd be surprised to know how many straight guys like cock. there's a reason the ladyboy bars of bangkok are busy all the time.
No darkroom in 39 underground, but it's dimly lit so people don't bump into each other inadvertently. Whereas Faraose 2 is so dark, you have to walk slowly or grope your way so you don't bump into others or hurt your feet on the furniture.
Deletethanks. cheers.
Deletei got beat at my back side around 10 pm tonight 14 april 2016 by one BAD ATTITUDE THAI GAY GUY in cakran sauna at 3rd floor. it bcoz i touch his chest.
ReplyDeleteif u don't want somebody touch u in the gay sauna. just sitiing in the house with ur boyfren or dog
or put some big tag / tattoo ' DONT TOUCH ME' in your chest
he wear red speddo underwear and have tattoo in back right side.
he sitting in the gym area at around10 pm after he beat me. and watching tv .
so think more than twice if u want go to cakran sauna.
this is another ANOTHER BAD RECORD for CAKRAN SAUNA and THAI PEOPLE IMAGE. coz this is Songkran day
So where do we find a glory hole in Bangkok? Does 39 Underground still have them?
ReplyDeleteI never actually checked if these two cubicles to watch others watching porn in 39 underground are actually glory holes. I vaguely remember Male Box and Paradise having glory holes. But it's not my area of interest, so I do not pay attention to glory holes when I visit a sauna.
