Gay men don't necessarily like Katoeys, or sipping sherry, or dressing up like girls.
It is an ignorant schoolboy bennyhill response to "giggle" about it like that...and just a bit homophobic.

Joyasia how you know what gay men like are you gay men? Benny Hill not ignorant school boy was very smart and creative comedian. For right baht there are many gay Thai mans no problem,not homophobic, why you so aggressive person? See, I not call you feminazi, we must be understanding.
I found the katooey to be way sexier than the real Thai girls were. Don't ask me how I found that out...;-P
Sunshine- I cannot read that! :-)
I'd like to congratulate heterosexuals up and down this thread for being so helpful on this topic and please don't tell me that heterosexuals go to Thailand, see ladyboys and think that's the 'gay scene'. That would be like homosexuals going to Thailand and seeing Patpong 2 or Soi Cowboy and judging only one or the other to be the only example of a straight scene in Thailand...which would make every full moon party, every budget bungalow and every flip flop wearing beach goer part of a big bi affair randomly taking anything they can get. Oh wait. THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS...and its not gay dammit. Its a holiday
The public gents' room scene in Bangkok is probably the most active one west of San Francisco. You'll never be alone in a toilet.

Hi Rick. I am planning my trip in February and I have found this to be the best website for help with the gay scene. It has listings for Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Pattaya, and Koh Samui. Just use the 'city directories' on the left of the page.
