Showers were communal,and often guys would be showering immediately after having sex with each other in one of the cubicles. Somebody would brush up against me in the sauna,but nobody forced anything. You could not beat the hours or the price. As a result the mainly gay clientele respected the straight members (!) who gave the club some kind of cover. The only catch was it was a gay club.Īpparently it had been a gay bath house but had added a great deal of health club features to avoid being shut down. He used these if he had to work late and did not want the 2 hour commute. He had joined because it also had about thirty cubicles with beds which you could rent for an additional 6 dollars a visit. It was open 24 hrs, had pristine equipment and was cheaper than any other club in town. I happened to hear from an older colleague about a club near his office. I kept saying that I had to join a health club, but it would have to be very near to my home or my work. I had been overworked and was losing weight due to a lack of time to lift weights etc. I guess you could say that I never felt anything against gay sexuality, I just did not think it was for me. I am a white male in my mid 20s living in a large city.I have been straight all my life, although I have gone out with several bisexual women.
