According to their very detailed accounts the answer is yes.
IMO...A person could have just as much luck hooking up with a local boy at the beach, a 7 Eleven, night market, shopping mall, etc., and it would be much more appealing to me than getting (or giving) a blowjob down in the bowels of a smelly old fishing boat. To each their own.
One of the things I've always loved the most about Thailand is the opportunity to meet someone spontaneously...when you least expect it...when you're not necessarily looking for it...just out of the blue as they say. I'm not interested in finding anyone new right now...perfectly content with HIM, although, if I were, there is a doll (slim, cute as Hell, perfect curves, big bulge, puffy lips and 2 dark and mysterious cat-like slits for eyes) working at the local Home Pro who is overly friendly..a smile that could make you melt...and acts as if he's available and definitely interested. That's more my cup-of-tea.
Ship's Ahoy!
