J Says: Well, unfortunately, Silom Farang, I can beat that story. I just won’t be able to tell it as well.
It was a couple years ago and I had just arrived in Bangkok. One of my first stops was the big Watson’s on Silom, across the street from Patpong. I was picking up supplies — condoms and gel but also some sunscreen, shaving cream and what not so I wouldn’t be too embarrassed at the cash register.
There was an item right next to the condoms that caught my eye; it was a box of something I’d never seen before, something called Stud. It was described as “a desensitizing spray.” And the only ingredient I recognized was the same suff my dentist used to inject into my gums before drilling. Which should have sent red flags flashing across in front of my eyes. But instead I was probably nodding right there in the aisle as I was reading the label and thinking, “Yeah, not a bad idea. I wouldn’t mind lasting a little longer, perhaps prolong the enjoyment.” So I put the box of Stud in my basket and headed toward the checkout counter.
The shaving cream beeped OK. So did the sunscreen and my Van Houten chocolate bar. Even the condoms and gel. But, of course, the novocaine for my penis did not.
The solution that popped into the clerk’s mind wasn’t to try another nearby scanner but to hold the box above his head and scream across the store to another employee to check on the price of “this premature ejaculation spray.” And, in case everyone in the store did not hear that, he then yelled out, “It’s right next to the condoms.”
Of course, at that point, I got that wonderful Thai smile that was meant to ask me to please wait a minute while they sorted things out.
And after all that, I don’t even know if the stuff worked. I had no feeling down there, so, of course, I lasted all night. But since there was no feeling there was no pleasure. And it was the only time I’ve ever heard a go-go boy utter the words, “Please hurry.”
Which didn’t exactly make me feel like a stud.
