feels more and more like you're a troll.

That word "troll" is used very loosely on these forums to censor information. While I have no interest in the subject manner of gay-friendly Bangkok, I would think the author should have the right to ask the question as well as someone expressing their opinion on the matter.

Maybe because we hear much about gay people, but in reality they are very few. So, nor you count the total amount of saunas in Bangkok. Se how many it is for the stright population. After that take the few saunas for the gay population. As a finish you will make a percentage calculation that will show you the is seen in percentage more saunas that cater for the gay population than for the straight pop.

I find yout post very funny.

Gay saunas are about sex.

There are very few saunas in the world that are about straight sex.

When did i say it was about sex. I only separated straight from gay. Same as saying hetero and gay.

Seems like the one who combine gay and sex is you. And then you got a hip OMG! in to, but sorry dude, you were wrong.

Some memories.

 

Steamworks Berkeley 

Babylon Bangkok 

Man's Country Chicago

8th and Howard San Francisco 

Watergarden San Jose 

 

I think all closed except for Steamworks. 

The best city in the world for gay saunas used to be Montreal but not sure about now.

I have no idea what you're on about.

 

If you're just talking about spas not hookup palaces they are everywhere and gay men could go there as well for the steam, etc.

 

Gay sauna means sex. Period.

Hi,

 

Why there are only few gay saunas in this gay-friendly Bangkok city?

Is it not that profitable?

Thanks

What's the difference between a gay sauna and a sauna ?

 

A sauna refers to the experience of a steam cleansing. ? What is a gay sauna ?

Well its a huge city.

I'm surprised so many would still.be open.

How did they make it through Covid?

On the other hand it kind of makes sense.

They are mostly for Thais and so many Thais live in family group situations.

Gay saunas can act as a cheap hotel as well.

There were a lot of bath houses in that area back in the day.  There was one called Sutro Baths that was the only man-woman place I knew about.  But the customers were mostly male, when the straight guys spotted a woman they behaved really aggressively, like baboons in heat, which I guess is why it didn't become more popular with women.

 

There are days when Bkk itself is like a steam bath.

8th and Howard was like Ground Zero for HIV and was closed with good reason by health authorities. 

 

I remember being there before the disease emerged thinking something  like that was going to develop as the debauchery there was at historically extreme levels. It had kind of a "not since ancient Rome" kind of vibe.

 

Yeah there was that one coed place also.south of Market. I never went but it had a reputation as a place straight people went to watch gay people have butt sex.

I only went there a few times, can't say I saw that but trans guys would get rooms and the otherwise straight guys would wait on line outside the door for their turn.

How can a gay sauna act as a cheap hotel?

Most gay saunas close at around 11 pm except on weekends.

Can you sleep well while listening to  moaning sound next door?
