Friendship can be such a fragile thing. The boy who invited himself to free beer at my expense in a karaoke bar doesn’t know me anymore. He came towards me on a bike in a narrow street and stopped, but didn’t say hello. He did say hello to everyone else.
I cried myself to sleep over him. (Not really).
I did a gaydar sweep of a busy outdoor market and found the gay percentage to be satisfactory. I found four gay boys, including one very fem one, a possible ladyboy.
I spoke to one guy, a fish monger. He pointed to another boy and said “he is my girlfriend”. As far as I can tell this fish monger is straight. He wanted his picture taken with his “girlfriend” and I obliged. He also wanted printed copies, which I promised to make.
Sorry, but I can’t put their photo in the blog. Not now that I have told you their secrets. They are Muslims and by definition they can’t be gay.

The hotel staff used to wonder about me. But after the local boy trio came to visit they wonder no more. I don’t detect any negative vibes from the hotel staff but you might say the episode brought me down to earth.

I met three Afghans in the market. One of them behaved like the Arab who surprised me in Burger King Silom a while ago. He began asking a series of silly questions without listening to what I said. This while grinning broadly. The other two also grinned broadly and stared at me. It was a shameless flirting.
They claimed to be from Pakistan but they didn’t look like any Pakistanis I have seen before. They looked like Pastuns or some similar Afganistan tribe from the border area with Pakistan. One of them had the trademark large gaps between his teeth and a Taliban beard.
I am in hot demand among such people. The scene repeated itself when I entered a cafe run by some Arabs. They looked me up and down, complimented me and said I was handsome. Again this homosexual flirty grinning.
Maybe I should go to the Middle East. It seems like I could do well there.

Most Europeans DO have a good time in the Middle East. Or at least they did, until this nonsense about beheading infidels came along.

The CIA complains that the Taliban is impossible to infiltrate with secret agents. They should try sending a pretty gay boy and see what happens.

You are right about a pretty gay boy being able to infiltrate the Taliban, SF. My old Army buddies tell me that just before Ramadan, it should be called “Ramitin.”
