I was merely quoting another person. One who I think is reliable.
I'm fairly sure I'll cope with it, as man has endured far worse hardships. It's not like being in Poland in 1939.

Also looking forward to your on site assessment. Divarium would be at a safe distance.

No promises as to when that on site assessment will be, but I'll get there.

I got there.

This evening I had dinner in Jomtien. I decided as long as I'm nearby, I might as well have a quick look. Maybe I was in the wrong part of the complex or something. I entered from Thappraya on the Yupins soi. I walked down as far as the Question Mark bar. No girlie bars anywhere that I saw.

Maybe it is further down the soi or in the other Jomtien Complex sois, but if there are is a girlie bar anywhere near I was, it is very well hidden . . .

As far as I understand, Question Mark bar is now called Divarium, although to add confusion, they still have the QM2.0 sign on the wall as well as the new branding.

According to the description, the girly bar is opposite Dragon. Which means it's the second bar on the right after Divarium. I doubt you missed much.

I see. Apparently I didn't walk down far enough. I thought it was supposed to be at the beginning of the soi. Whoops!

I don't know when I'll be back there again, but next time I'll see if I can find it. I don't know why someone would open a girlie bar in Jomtien Complex, but it's definitely a unique idea. I don't know whether to be annoyed about it or whether to congratulate the owner for taking that kind of risk. Jomtien Complex is the last place I would have thought a girlie bar would appear. It will be interesting to see if it succeeds.

Unfortunately it stands more chance of success than opening a gay bar in a girly area.

Let’s hope it doesn’t catch on.

Memories of all those women in Boyztown bars.

Agreed.

I'm still hoping the Dragon Noise Lounge fails, on the basis that one of the main advantages of Jomtien is all the open fronted bars which allow you to watch what's going on on the entire soi. The front of the bar should only be closed if it's a gogo.
According to the source on the other forum, the girly bar was opened by the same people from Dragon Noise Lounge. So even more of a reason to boycott the place.

From what I've read on the Sawatdee board, the girly bar is devoid of customers and seems likely to fail.

Are we certain it is actually a girly bar at all? Perhaps it is a ladyboy bar.

I'm only reading what was posted elsewhere, but by a reliable source. If there are half a dozen of them in underwear, it ought to be possible to tell the difference.

Not everyone would agree, but for me a lady boy bar would be even worse, as they're even more likely to be pushy.

Dragon Music Lounge offers both an enclosed, air conditioned, area and an outside sitting area so you can make your choice. The inside is quite nice.
