LOS is a great place for gays. Two or three of our gay friends come regularly down to the island to visit us. However, the younger farang gays tend to be quite amazed if I tell them that their Thai boy friends are not actually gay but just in it for the baht. The older gays know the score and rather like the idea of their boys making out with Thai ladies from time to time.
I must admit to being uneasy with the Thai boy friends and ask the maids to watch them like a hawk in case they take off with the silver. In fact, we record their ID details before we will let them stay overnight.
Never had a gay hit on me. They seem to sense that I'm not of that bent. Lady boys though still offer me their wares...when I'm around Nana...which isn't often.
