Why different tips in Boyztown vs Sunee?

PostAuthor: malexan » Sat 10 May, 2008 1:15 pm

Hi guys,

I'm new to the Pattaya scene, and I've been reading and hearing from various people (including a boy I know well) that boys in Sunee are tipped less than boys in Boyztown; any explanation for that? I haven't seen any good one so far, and I really don't see why it should be like that. Wondering if anyone has ideas about it?

Thanks :)

Marc

First , tip is "Up to you." Tip what you think the service is worth. Second, don't be shy talk to the boy and find out what he expects, and if you think it is too much negotiate the price. Contrary to common rumor business is slow and the boys are very open to listen to whatever you have to offer. Third, a lot of the price expected will have alot to do with how attractive the boy thinks you are handsome, good hearted, clean, well dressed, sober, etc. Fourth, Boyz Town has become a tourist trap and a place for the folks that are afraid of Sunee , so they try to jack up the price just like any good capitalist would do.

As a personal observation, I find the boys in both Sunee and Jomtien Complex to be much less "full of themselves" and I have a much better time just hanging out chatting, flirting, and teasing a bit. Of course, you should leave a nice tip after chatting with a boy, and if you take a boy off he should be treated well and paid fairly.

1000~1100 short time seemed to be appreciated by both Sunee & Boystown guys last year.

Also at Jomtien Complex, I was specifically asked for a 1000 bht tip, so he wasn't expecting more either.

Boyztown

I think in Boyztown, it is supposedly "the" main place to be and many of the lads won't do it for 1000, well certainly the good looking ones, however, a lot will also.

Hey guys,

thanks for the answers - I know the tip is up to me (and I hardly ever go below 2000 B), but it still doesn't say why Sunee boys tend to get less tip than Boyztown boys - maybe this is not true in the first place, but I did hear or read that many times.

Maybe WhiteDesire and Soi 10 Tom's explanations that Boyztown is more "in trend" is an explanation, but it seems a little weak, no?

Perhaps it is because Sunee Plaza can be considered off-broadway to Boystown's Broadway. The boys are less polished, less experienced, and -- some would say (I would definitely say) -- lower quality. Some may eventually make it to Broadway, but for the moment they cannot expect to be paid as much as their uptown cousins.

This is my OPINION which this forum is about... To me, Sunee Plaza if for the 60 or older crowd that is into the "young" boys...the younger, the better. And true, the "boys" there are younger; thus, not charging as much since they are new into the game and not as commercial. The guys in Boyztown are mostly a bit older, more "commercialized; therefore, charging more. In Boyztown, it gets more of the tourist than the farang who lives here for a year or during the winter; thus, they're use to getting the price they ask... but, they are mostly a "quickie". They may look more buffed and pour on the smiles, but in bed they're a joke... If you are into the skinny, nellie types, then you go to Sunee... if you are into the more mature buffed look, then you go to Boyztown.

I agree with you, but there is no reason I can think of that "skinny/nellie/young" should be cheaper than "buffed/masculine/a little older".

I still think it is the fact that Sunee is the bottom drawer of the boy industry. Any emaciated, drug-addicted waif of questionable age can walk in and get a job there. The Boystown bars are more slective, their quality is higher, thus the expectation for tips is higher.

A "big tipper" is always appreciated by the boys.
