Gays in Pattaya


Pattaya Beach is a truly welcoming, comfortable place for gay travelers. There are several reasons for this. Among these are that:
  1. Thai culture is generally more accepting and tolerant of homosexuality than are many  other cultures.
  2. Pattaya is a major tourist destination and, in Thailand, gay Thais tend to concentrate around these places. Thus,   the population of gay Thais relative to the general Thai population is quite large.
  3. There are many businesses in Pattaya that actively seek gay customers. Many have gay owners.
  4. Gay foreigners have felt comfortable in Pattaya and   have settled there.
  5. Most non-gay people in Pattaya have no interest in gay people one way or the other. They are too busy making money or chasingwomen to be bothered or interested.
  6. The Thai tourism industry is naturally hospital to all guests…with the possible exception of terrorists and so forth!!!!
Thus, Thailand is an excellent place for gay tourists, either traveling alone or with a partner, to visit and have fun.
Where in Pattaya is the best place for gay people to go? Well, most gays are comfortable on all the beaches and in all public places such as shopping malls and restaurants. There are a couple of areas in Pattaya that have many gay bars, massage parlors, A Go-Gos and  other businesses that serve gays. One area is called “Pattayaland” and is located near the walking street, east of the Royal Gardens Mall, and between the first and second beach roads. When on the second beach road, one can easily identify the area by a large “Boyztown” sign. A second area is located on and off of Soi 17, “Soi VC,” in South Pattaya, next to the VC Hotel. If one walks up Soi VC a few blocks,  beginning where it intersects with the road heading toward Jomtien Beach, one will come to a smattering of gay bars and discos. To the right are two sois which together are called “Sunee Plaza.” Unfortunately, the “Sunee” part of the welcoming signs have been removed but the area is easy to recognize.   The number of gay establishments here is very concentrated and is distinctly separated from the surrounding area. There is also a nice gay area in nearby Jomtien Beach, which also has its own gay beach, Dongtan Beach (lots of straight people go there, too). The gay area in Jomtien is located to the left of Theprasit Road between the north police station and  the sharp right turn where TheprasitRoad heads due east to the beach. Dongtan Beach is to the right of the police station and a short walk from the gay bars andbusinesses.

What is the lesbian scene in Pattaya like? Unfortunately for gay ladies, there are no lesbian bars and there  is no organized lesbian scene in Pattaya.  It is possible for lesbians to meet young Thai ladies in heterosexual bars but everything is hit and miss. Many of the ladies in the bars will be as happy – maybe more happy - to go home with a young foreign lady as with a foreign man. Money will, however, always be involved. Some ladies working in the heterosexual bars are gay, but most are not. Many Thai ladies in heterosexual bars would not consider being entertained by a foreign woman in the woman’s hotel or guest house. A problem gay foreign women face in trying to meet a partner is that the Thai ladies often do not speak English – or any other foreign language except perhaps Lao – very well.  Lesbians traveling with partners, however,  will have very nice time together and will not be disturbed in anyway!! All doors will be open to them.

Pattaya Massage Parlors



Pattaya Massage Parlors are all over the city just about in any street or alley.




'Adult' Massage parlors don't advertise the manual happy end with much more than sometimes advertising it as a body or physical massage. I have seen signs like "1 hour happy hands massage" and it seems obvious what that means in Pattaya.
These massages usually cost 300-600 Baht for 1-2 hours and the happy end is oftentimes included in the price. You may have to ask for your happy ending though and maybe give a tip for the optional "extra".
Pattaya massage parlors of the above mentioned adult nature are really just about anywhere in Pattaya and the best you can do is to just walk around the Streets (Sois.)
There are many Pattaya massage parlors in the Sois or alleys from Beach Road to 2nd Road, up to Soi Buakaow and further on to 3rd Road. Some of these Massage parlors disappear just as fast as they opened. Usually there are several girls sitting in front of the massage parlor.
If the girls call you by your favorite title (Sexy Man), you can be assured you have come to the right place. Sometimes this may be emphasized with a hug or arm pulling, in which case you can be dead sure.

Pattaya Girls and Nightlife The Beautiful Bar Girls Of Pattaya



Beautiful, exotic, fun loving, feminine, and taking care of their men.


Pattaya Girls. Sounds like the right description for a woman you would like to meet?
It definitely is the description that comes to mind when talking about the girls in Pattaya.
With an estimated 3,000 Entertainment venues and it's crazy and fun nightlife, Pattaya is not a true representation of Thailand, although geographically it is located in Thailand. The women in Pattaya are not to be confused with other women in Thailand. 
Pattaya is far from being a true representation of the rest of the country and it's culture.
Even though the girls working here will be going back to their families, family members usually do not know what the girls are doing in Pattaya.
Eventually, most of these Pattaya girls want to go back to their families to live a Thai life with all its values and culture.
The estimated numbers of girls working in the adult industry in Pattaya during high season are as high as 40,000. That does not mean that every girl or woman in Pattaya works in the adult Industry !
The ones that do work in the Nightlife and "adult industry" work as Bar Girls in Beer bars or in Go Go bars, massage parlors or as 'freelancers' mainly along Beach Road are usually available as companions.
Most of these Thai girls come from Isaan, the poorer northeastern part of Thailand.
Some Girls come from Bangkok, some from the north and other parts of Thailand or maybe even from Laos or Cambodia.
The reason they come to Pattaya is for economic reasons. Meaning they work in Pattaya to make money.
They come to work and that usually means work for you 'the rich farang' and help you part from your money while offering you companionship.
Some of these girls may also hope to meet a 'rich white' man who will take care of them and their family. From their point of view most or all farangs (foreigners) are rich...which compared to most Thai people is true with your spendable foreign currency while vacationing.
Pattaya must be the easiest vacation destination for men to find beautiful women available for companionship for fairly little money compared with many other parts of the world.
The beauty and Femininity of Pattaya girls/Thai women can be quiet mesmerizing and some are turning heads where ever they go and may have been the cause for vehicular collisions.
Most men would agree that once you have been with a Thai woman it becomes hard to enjoy the company of their sisters in the western world where gender equality and feminism is on the rise.
Femininity seems almost something of the past in western societies and according to conversations with a lot of men in Pattaya, that is the main reason why they are seeking out the companionship of women in Pattaya. 
The beautiful "Pattaya Girls" employed in Pattaya's Adult Entertainment industry are the main attraction for many foreign men coming to Pattaya.
No wonder, because the girls are not just happy, beautiful, friendly and fun-loving, they also have this inner beauty and an abilty to make men feel welcome and good about themselves.
It seems natural to them to make Pattaya visitors feel like royalty and it's impossible to take a walk in Pattaya and not to fall in love about every 15 minutes.
That's why many men become Pattaya addicts and return as often as they possibly can and if they don't move to Pattaya, they at least dream about living here.
