Go-Go bar experience

It was about 9pm when my friend and I got out of Diamond beach hotel. The hotel is in south Pattaya and is within walking distance to "Walking street". All set and ready to get a hang of the nightlife in Thailand. Walking street was all up and running by 9pm. We could see loads of people walking around, many foreigners hanging out at the bar.

We decided to drink a little bit at the bar near by, before we go around looking for girls. We were wrong; we didn't have to look for girls at all. They were all over us at the bar; believe it or not they wanted us to buy them drinks, a glass of Coke that would cost us 100 Baht each. After all the talking and fooling around we thought, its time we experience the Go-Go bar.

I got into one of the Go-Go bar; there are so many Go-Go bars in South Pattaya that you need not look around much. As soon as we got in, there were girls coming to sit with us. After about 5 minutes of talking, again they wanted us to buy them drink. I think they get some kind of commission or something.

The girls were dancing half naked, they had their top off. Touching and feeling them is ok, they don't seem to mind. We were around for quite long, there was a lady that kept coming and asking us to pay the bar fine to take the girl out.

Well, it works this way. You get into a Go-Go bar. You meet a girl that you think you would want to sleep with. You have to pay a bar find, usually it is about 500 Baht to the lady who takes care of all these girls, called "Mama Sung".

Now once the girl is allowed to go out with you, you negotiate the price for a night with her. This can be from anywhere between 1500 - 2500 Baht.

That night I got lucky, so did my friend. When we got to the room, the girls ask for money in advance. We had to pay them before. I did not sleep properly that night until she left in the morning. I was trying to stay awake all the while because I have heard story of the girl, stealing your money and stuff and leave you before you wake up.

It is a hard life for these girls and they will try to do anything to get money. Most of the girls that work in Go-Go bars come from the poorer north eastern region (The Thai called this region "Isaan") of Thailand.

If suppose you get caught in a relationship with these girls, which is very much possible. Be sure that all they're trying to do is not taking your money.

Too right Go-go girl. Speaking for myself I ve yet to get to know a Thai working girl who wasn t an absolute sweetheart. Chose carefully, treat with respect and as a real human being and you ll get back what you give. Two of the finest people I ve ever met have been active or retired working girls. One of them, OK this was Shanghai rather than Pattaya so off topic, went back on the game for a week earlier this year specifically to raise money to donate to victims of the Sichuan earthquake - and before you scoff, she gave me the money to add to a donation to a charity that my company supports.

Who cares, I say if you pick up a girl from the bar and the next night you like another girl I say bar fine her so what about them losing face do they realise what they are doing, they are providing a service (whoring) and we are the paying customer. In any brothel around the world if you see a girl and then the other night you take another girl from the same brothel the owner doesn t give a shirt nor does the girl(whore) so what is the big deal about losing face? Such is life. Added by: Ned Kelly    Report abuse

I do agree however with Markios, marrying one of these bar girls really will be hell-on-earth in 90% of cases but if you suggested to a German or a Brit that he go and marry a hooker from London or Munich, he would think you are crazy. Yet, these poor Thai gals from the countryside somehow are not hookers...they imagine. Also, beware of any on ya-ba and be very careful, despite what some have written here, on taking two at a time unless they are very cool and the Mamasan okays or blesses it. The worst horror stories come from guys who get one ya-ba gal ( ya-ba is crank, or meth, many bargirls are on it) going nuts in their room only to have a second one ditto. Ever fought with a hooker? Tougher than Tyson... Hey, though, don t get put off. Use your wits, have fun and remember most of the bar gals and lady boys are good fun and nice folks who give as good as. they get Added by: G    Report abuse

Pattaya is inexpensive for gals or ladyboys especially in low season. Anyone paying more than 500-1000 Bhat Short Time and bit more for long is getting ripped ( exclusive of bar fine)unless the hooker or ladyboy is a really famous one. It always helps to talk to the Mama San though some few are thieves. There are as many or more bad stories about bar girls/boys in Thailand than most places. But, whores are the same the world over, except some white folks seem to lose their senses in Thailand and start hearing words like lover , needs my help , girlfriend instead of hooker , wants my money and walletfriend . The number of deluded and bamboozled farangs is legendary. Try not to be one. Take lots of care and lock your valuables in the wall safe, carry only as much money as you intend to spend/lose, always but always agree the price firmly, buy a few ladydrinks to show you are not a Cheap Charlie , dont pick up a different gal from the same bar the next night ( Butterfly man )- just be cool, be nice and you will probably get the same from some pretty hot gals/ladyboys.

I love Pattaya been there 5 times and 6 times to Thailand in total. About to go again in May 08. There is a lot of good advice on this page. Don t be so negative about the girls though. They are working and from a very poor economy. I have never had any trouble with any. A golden rule really is to go to a good go go or beer bar and any problems with the girls will be resolved by the Mama San. I had a regular girl from Spicy s (now on Soi Post office) and the Mama San re-paid the bar fine when i just mentioned what had happened the night before. I hadn t asked for this and wasn t saying to get the girl in trouble, just telling them what happened. We got back to mine, pissed and she went off to a Disco and said she would be back, didn t come back. The rest of the stuff is just sensible, use your room safe. Use condoms, don t do illegal drugs ! I have been pissed on walking street at closing time whilst life wanders by and never felt any problems. It s a great place. My favourite places from my last trip 26th Dec 07 to Jan 20th 08 were Buffalo Bar - a beer bar on 3rd Road - dancin and girls there, beer good price and a pool table. Kiss Kool on Soi Six and Beavers on Walking St - the original table top knickerless dancers ! And Angelwitch off Walking Street, the show is actually erotic not just girls gyrating on the poles. Lastly did get kind of ripped in Secrets as in spent a ?100 in about an hour, but to be fair it was good fun and i had my eyes open. I have no connection with any of these places !! If there not your cup of tea i think you l find somewhere else you love Added by: BrummieBoy    Report abuse
