Okay...so I believe the ladies of Hanoi will not disagree with me that the ratio of men to women in this city does not work in their favour, and what is out there is limited, unavailable or just wanting to fool around etc etc (not that there's anything wrong with that, but I'm a bit over it). Which leads me to ask whether it is at all possible to locate a certain battery operated device or do I have to leave the country to purchase one of these? Smart business entrepeneurs listen up - there's money to be made here!
For anyone who enjoyed the recent B.O.D thread, you will be pleased to hear I have organised a party/fundraiser to celebrate the launch of the Sex in the City movie at Green Mango on 12 July. Check out the Facebook Vietnam Network events page for the 'Sex in the City - The Movie at Green Mango' event for more info! (proceeds going to a local community mental health clinic for women and children).

well this has created quite a stir! fantastic! thank you for the link to the very interesting newspaper article and the info on the official legal status of these certain battery operated devices. I'll be sure to keep mine in a well concealed hiding spot! Re the statistics on the male/female ratio in Hanoi - bah humbug... thank you MissKiss etc for your insight on how statistics mean bugger all when it comes to this particular 'shortage of decent men in Hanoi' crisis. And I have no issues with local men either, it all just comes down to personal taste and preference, which I believe MissKiss was trying to express. Pulling it back to the initial question being asked, I believe I too, shall be paying a visit to the aptly named 'Happy Market' (if any of you do have success in your search there please let me know the go). Oh and sign me up for the next trip to SexyLand man!

A trip to SexyLand is a fab idea however I believe we need to nip this at the grassroots ladies... maybe a screening process when guys first enter customs? Ultimately it's quality, not quantity (to a certain degree!) An added section to the arrivals card that determines whether they can get a stamp in their passport? I've got a few ideas myself on how to write the questionnaire, THAT'S for sure!

oh qwerty qwerty, that is the question? why not Rome or Paris? Or Timbuktoo? It's more the dire lack of access to battery operated devices that I'm really lamenting. Teacherman you give back faith in the male population, True Women are also hard to find, I entirely concur (and maybe I'm a little bias if I say there is however, a larger percentage of True Women to choose from in Hanoi than True Men!!! lol) Yes...us women are at least lucky enough to have the battery option (once we can damn well get hold of them here) when faced with these turbulent times, however it has to be said they don't really replace the real thang!

wesmo wesmo wesmo, your girlfriend must be one unbelievable female speciman for you to not find anyone appealing here, but then again, it could just be that you love her so much you just don't find anyone else attractive!!! Although I can't speak for the other contributing ladies on this particular chat topic, I'm afraid it's too hard for me to give a dossier on my ideal guy. These things are kind of intangible in my book! Maybe...er.....Available? ummmmmmm....honest, trustworthy (upper case & bold), sexy, intelligent, fun, smart enough to know a good woman when they see one!!!!! lolololololol
Anyhow, what I really want to know is if any women reading this have had a chance to check out this happy market in the old quarter yet? I'm kind of not sure how to approach someone to ask for what I'm looking for. How do you say 'battery operated device' in pidgeon viet? I don't think sign language is appropriate under these circumstances!!!!!
ps. Miss Kiss...your fresh produce suggestion was formidable however cucumbers generally don't cut it for me! lololololol

Seriously to all you lovely darlings who have become involved in this highly amusing forum chat, thank you! The majority of responses have been highly enlightening and I believe this could make quite an interesting offshoot to the New Hanoian....Hey Elliot - a 'Sex in Hanoi' website in the making???!!! I believe my anonymous identity has possibly been compromised though so may need to change alter egos... What started simply as a drunken dare by a fellow luscious girlfriend over a 'B.O.D' discussion (ahem...I believe I am still owed that cocktail), has turned into quite a lively chat. For the record, I embrace my freedom and love my life in Hanoi with or without a man. It's just that 'B.O.D.'s don't talk back...lololololololol Oh Ladies & Gents, it's all fun!!!! Dance, laugh, sing and vibrate!!!! xxx

ps. pippasweetie, the marrow/toothbrush combo tip, rock on...at least you can get electric toothbrushes here! lololol I did do a double take on those marrows just the other day, but I dunno, could be biting off more than I can chew with that one!!!!!!!
and yes, i don't mind watching a bit of football player public dak dropping, have witnessed this on more than one occasion (actually it was the full kit and kaboodle and led to a rather interesting relay race through vineyards with champagne bottles as batons..er that's another story!) Don't think I'd get quite that display at the UNIS matches but it's still a great perve tip, cheers!
unfort. am still not anymore enlightened on the viet word for this particular device, but get ya on trying to ask for what you want on the 'B.O.D. blackmarket' and actually pronouncing the tone right, I can't even say bun bo correctly to save myself so goodness knows what I'd be asking for. Yeppo pippasweetie, I think it will be a suitcase smuggle job inside a footy sock on the risk of the Hanoi Hilton (ps. I hear they're illegal in Thailand as well for crying out loud, who would have thought?!!)

So my friend and I decided to set up a little organisation aptly called 'B.O.D. Entertainment' (hey, it doesn't get better than that) - and our first social soiree will be a launch party to screen the new 'Sex in the City' movie at Green Mango on Sat 12th July, 7.30pm. Donation of 100K at the door gets you a free cosmo and nibbles prior to movie in the outdoor courtyard. Live acoustic beforehand and party after... door & raffle proceeds go to TUNA - a local mental health community clinic for women and children. Oh yes...and guys get free beer between 7.30 & 8.30, bonus!
There will also be some fantastic themed cocktails and shooters created by some talented boys from Melbourne as well...woop woop!

ah! it's a free cosmo for the girls on arrival - we added the free beer part for the lads as we figured it might be a better drawcard to help balance the numbers then a passionfruit cosmo!!
