The shapes of Mimosa

Keen to expose she who must be obeyed’s little sister to the many delights of Pattaya, we take her to Mimosa.

She is subjected to the mainly awful katoey show:

And afterwards meets some of the gorgeous performers:

With an hour to spare while the chicks with dicks prance around and mime to crap songs; I slap the Jupiter 11 or Jupiter 3 on my E-M1 and go seeking shapes.

I know, just shapes; but the alternative would be more ladyboy shots…

Following a comment on a previous Mimosa post, I check the pricing on the way out (we gained entry with our soon to expire VIP card). For a foreign tourist the entry fee is indeed now 600 baht. For that price you can get blind drunk in Walking Street and have a katoey sit on your face. Allegedly.

I know there are two sides to Pattaya, but . . . really, honestly, I mean really it is a freak show. Really it is.

The place is kind of tragic. Raw and desperate.

For reasons that elude me, ladyboy shows are very popular; at least four in Pattaya and at least this place has some shops and restaurants to soften the pain.

I believe they’re popular everywhere, especially on Saga Mediterranean cruises for the over fifties. My mother always used to say “Oh, there was the most wonderful ladyboy cabaret, you’d never know they were . . . blokes.”
