Even if you are not interested, I sometimes see posts on the various boards from people looking for suggestions for gifts for their favorite young gents. Taking him, or sending him, to some of these events might be very meaningful for him - far more than anything you might buy in a store as a gift or by just handing him some cash.

No mention of Pattaya Pride at the end of June? I thought it was supposed to be a big event. I've never been but thinking of going this year; will Boyztown and Supertown have special shows featuring manly men or will the fay boys take centre stage?
