I don't know if I'm coming or going, or if it's heaven or hell. There are so many angles, so many places the girls are coming from, that to make any kind of sense of the area is impossible. The only thing you can do is go with the flow, turn up there and see what kind of creature comes out of the insane density of women. Have to be careful not to insult the girls to their faces, they mostly have fierce blood and a liking for instant retribution. I really, really wish they would dump the shows in Nana.
Nothing is ever simple in Thailand.
Patpong isn't confusing at all. There are only two bars I actually like to hang out in, but both of them have an extreme density of pimps on the premises. Some serving behind the bar, others pretending to be waiters. Some mind bendingly beautiful women, mind. They largely ignore me, been there too many times without coughing up bucket loads of dosh.
