Introduction
Thai Girls, Sex and the Supernatural is a collection of essays about love and sex, mainly in Thailand and the Philippines (and a brief foray into Cambodia). They offer a frank, and sometimes humorous, description of what single males get up to in the fleshpots of Asia, but the author has spared the reader any blow by blow descriptions of sexual encounters. The essays were first published on www.thailandstories.com, www.stickmanbangkok.com, and other Thailand forums over a period ranging from 2005 to 2013. Two of the articles in the title series have been in the Most Popular section of Thailand Stories for five years (with over 29,000 views between them).
Thailand Stories went offline about five years ago, and even the celebrated Stickman disappeared for a while. The author also quitted the scene to focus on a relationship with a Filipina. However, Stickman is back, and so is the author with a broken heart, but a tried-and-tested medicine to cure it. The medicine was not to be found in a pharmacy, but in the gogo bars of Thailand and the Philippines.
He started writing for Stickman again in October 2019 with submissions about a new wave of adventures to Subic, Angeles, Bangkok and Hua Hin, but March 2020 brought an email into Bangkok Byrons inbox stating that his flight to Angeles on April 3 rd had been cancelled. After an initial period of doom and gloom, Bangkok Byron pulled himself together and comforted himself with the thought that he would have time to revise his publications, this one included. Indeed, he was so into it, yesterday, that he even forget to check the online newspapers something which he has been doing obsessively for weeks!

PART 1 (2005 2013)
Part 1: Palmistry
One evening, at about 7 pm, I was standing outside Shark bar in Soi Cowboy, wondering whether to go in or not, when I noticed a touching little ceremony. Over the door of the bar is a Ying-Yang symbol. As the girls turned up for work, each one of them patted that symbol not a single one forgot to do it. After a while, I did the same, and guess what it worked! That was the night I met my girlfriend! OK, you cynics out there, heads stuffed full of decadent western ideas, will say it was just a coincidence. But my girlfriend was not at all surprised. Of course, we were going to meet that evening! hadnt she said a special prayer to Buddha as well as touching the Ying-Yang herself!
Whether its Ying-Yang, palmistry, card-reading, astrology or ghosts especially ghosts Thais are true believers, so when I began trying out my somewhat limited palm reading abilities it was an instant hit. Suddenly, I was no longer just the fat guy in the corner, another customer to be relieved of a few thousand baht I was a real person, I was interesting I was even sexy!
The more I used palmistry, the more useful I found it to be. I soon found that it could do more than make me stand out from the average customer. For example, it is very effective at:
> convincing a girl that you are powerful (they deeply respect this kind of skill), yet sensitive
> filling the gaps in conversations when a girls English (or your Thai) is not up to much
> opening a girl up (Im speaking figuratively here!) and getting her talking about herself
> starting the stroking and fondling in a subtle way (what you dont bother with subtleties!)
> revealing a girls personality and future fate (but only if you believe in it yourself, and have a reasonable level of skill!)
So hows it done? The bottom line is that you dont need to know anything at all. Just gaze at the girls palm and bluff! But be warned, you may not get away with it that easily. True, most of these girls have only had an elementary-level education, but when it comes to supernatural matters, they probably know more than you do. Not only that, they are (if you hadnt already noticed) very street-wise. They can spot a charlatan faster than you can say barfine, so it pays to have at least a basic knowledge of the lines of the palm. To help you with this I give below what could be described as The Dummys Guide to Palmistry (but which Ive had to rename The Dumbos Guide to avoid an expensive lawsuit for copyright infringement).
The Dumbos Guide to Palmistry
A full palm reading is a very complex business. Apart from the main lines, there are numerous minor lines. Also, each area of the palm is ruled by a different planet. But dont worry this is the Dumbos Guide. You wont get a very accurate reading of her fortune from it but you might get to know her better and have a lot of fun. All you have to do is to learn the main lines of the palm (see diagram at http://www.crystalinks.com/palmistry.html) and then follow these simple steps:
First Impressions
Take her left palm in your hand, caress it gently and look at the general pattern of lines. Dont say anything at this point making her wait for it is all part of the fun (same as in bed really). Heres what to look for:
A hot, moist hand: this is probably not the only place that shes hot and moist, or in the words of Othello to Desdemona thy palm denotes a lustful disposition. To be honest, you dont really need to work through the rest of this guide just barfine her and get on with it.
A cold, clammy palm: this means just the opposite, Im afraid. Why not start again with that hot little number just coming off the stage?
Life Line
Broadly speaking, a long line means a long life, but its better not to get drawn into discussion about this its not very sexy to be told youre going to drop dead at 25, and you dont want her worrying about the arrangements for her funeral when youre trying to get the bed rocking.
Head Line
A long clear line shows intelligence, a short faint line shows lack of intelligence, but this is another line which it is better to lie about being told youre stupid is a real turn off! Whatever the line actually says, take the opportunity to pay her a compliment or two, e.g., if youd finished your education, you would be at university by now (and then I might get you for free!)
Line of Fate
This shows a persons course through life. A simple line, with just one or two forks, is the sign of a straightforward life with few wrong turns. A complex line, with several forks, doublings, and other lines crossing it, is a sign of a complicated life! Point to a fork or cross and tell her that she has a decision to make or a problem to solve. This is quite likely to be true, since shes probably deciding how to play you off against her two boyfriends, one of whom is due to arrive tomorrow.
Be careful though. Talking about problems could provide her with the ideal excuse to bring up those sob stories sick water buffalo, sick mum, drunken father or anything with a price tag over 20,000 baht.
Love Line
This is the line that will stimulate most interest. Shell be gagging with anticipation so dont let her down (again, same as in bed!) Heres what to look for:
