First Time In Pattaya - Part 1

OMG !!!!!

I have never been to a place like this before !!!!

Okay, let me talk about my travel experience in Thailand. 

Before I went to Thailand, I knew that Thailand is very famous for ready made clothes & brands, tailoring and sex tourism. So I had a concept that there will be malls, bargain markets, lido shows (topless dance shows), massage parlours with happy ending massages and bars to booze. 

My first day in Thailand was in Pattaya. Pattaya is 1.5 hours away from Suvarnabhumi Airport. The roads in Pattaya looked like any Indian town. And later in the afternoon, I attended the Alcazar Cabaret show. Before I visited the show, the guide informed me that the performers in the show are not girls though they look like beautiful girls. They are the lady boys of Pattaya. 

Pattaya, is famous for the Lady Boys or the She Males. 

In Pattaya, there are 3 different categories of Lady Boys. (May be more categories I'm not aware of)

1. Men, with all male organs, dressed as ladies. 
2. Men, with silicon breasts, and beautiful figures, dressed as ladies. Pattaya visitors, who think these lady boys as ladies, and try to have sex with them will get a surprise ending as their reproductive organ will be the same as men. But there are many who come to Thailand to have sex with these Lady boys.
3. Men, completely changed to ladies, with silicon breasts and no penis.

But in all the above cases, they have male voice which helps us to identify them.

Outside the Alcazar theater, there were more than 2 dozen very beautifully dressed ladies posing for photos with the visitors. They were taking 40 Baht (= 4.5 AED) or more for standing in these photos. Though I didn't take a photo with them, I noticed that they were very rude in handling people. I was surprised to know that they were not ladies, but men. Oh Sorry, the lady boys. They all looked so colorful in their stunning costumes and were calling all the people standing around them for taking photos. Along with them, there were men to control the crowd.

You are mistaken !! They are men. Not ladies. .
They are the lady boys of Pattaya in their stunning costumes standing infront of the Alcazar theater.

And then we got into the theater to watch the live performance. There were many well choreographed dance performances and the stage changes between each performance was so quick and amazing. They danced to the Indian, Chinese, Thai, Arabic, Japanese and Western tunes. All were preformed by Lady-boys with stunning figures of a girl. In a few of the performances, they were showing princess, and it was tough to believe that, that princess was not a lady. There was also humour in it performed by a fatty lady-boy. She (he? I'm confused. I may say he or she) was making everyone laugh by her figure and gestures.And then she even came to the audience and made humour after making two men touch and rub her big breasts. I was feeling a little shy then, but could not control laughter. At the end of the show, a lady boy performed as both the genders - i.e. half of him was dressed as man and the other as a lady. After the show, we saw the lady boys outside posing for the photos. Then, I took a lot of snaps and even sent a few through whatsapp to my friends. None of my friends could believe that they were boys.

One lady boy dressed in half as a lady and the other half as a man. 

Then, we went for another show called as Big Eye Show. I went with my friends - another lady and 2 men. Prior to this, I have attended the lido shows in Paris and therefore I was a little disinterested to spend 800 Baht for this show. With an "I know all this" attitude, I told my friends that there will be a lot of nudity in this. Among us, I was the first to walk in and the first sight of the show threw me into a speechless state. Our first sight was a couple doing sex on stage. Then the bouncer boys showed us seats. When I sat down, I found that it was not one couple - there were 3 couples doing the same. I was shocked!!! Though sex is not a taboo now-a-days, it is still done in closed rooms and were not talked about much. And here, I'm watching it along with hundreds of people. I didn't even look at my friends (and they were not looking at me as well) for the next 10 minutes. Then, as I could not believe my eyes, I asked my lady friend (who  is also equally stunned and surprised) whether THEY ARE REALLY DOING IT ?????? A blank look was the answer.

It was not like a proper stage show like Alcazar show. There were audience sitting on all 3 sides on steps (like a stadium) and the performance was in the middle of everyone. The seats were completely occupied. This show was shown in a cyclic manner. It starts and never stops in between. Every hour, the performance is repeated. So at whatever time you get in, after 1 hour, you will be asked to leave. 

In the entire show, nudity show was at its maximum. Even if they came to performance area in shorts or bikini, they made sure that they removed it before they left the floor. It was the same for all men, ladies and lady boys in the show. In between a pole dance, a lady removed her top and bottom while swinging on air holding only one hand on the pole.  Another surprising factor of the show was that the girls with beautiful breasts also had dicks. Yes! They are the lady boys. The men performers in the show were lean and short, but their dick size was almost equal to their arm. And above all, these performers came to the audience and asked us to touch their private parts. Most of the girls in the audience were yelling when they came near. Thankfully, then never came to our side. By the time, we tried to hide our shyness and to overcome the shyness, we started talking about the show, performers and even joked at it.

While coming back, there were many massage parlors on either sides of the road offering traditional Thai massage, foot massage and sensual and erotic massages with happy endings. A few of them were big enough with a very good interior designed with yellow bulbs. In such parlours, there will be a big room where in you can see the pretty Thai girls dancing. Yes men, you can choose them and take them to any of the small rooms inside to get the massage done. 

Yes. Now I got a small picture of Pattaya.
