#GAY MEN CRUISING HOTEL GYM STORIES CRACKED#
“Is cruising in the locker room something to be tolerated (or even encouraged), or cracked down on?” We know return you to your regular scheduled programming. The girls have it right- Why is it straight men are often so rude and inconsiderate when it comes to sex?Įnd of rant. At IML they would always ask my boyfriend for me first -Now that’s what I call polite! (OK, I admit it, one time the guy asking was so uber-hot we actually said yes – but that doesn’t make me or my bf easy! And my point is he asked before squeezing the fruit.) Yeah, they may want some sex, but they always talk to you and ask before groping. The funny thing is, the few times my partner have stayed at gay resorts or attended some frickin big gay event, the guys at the resort or hotel gym are way more polite. Just because a guy is gay does not mean he’s easy! Just because that same guy is smaller than everybody else doesn’t mean he’s there for the taking! I spend the time and money going to the gym because I’d like to gain forty or fifty pounds, not to satisfy some straight men’s pre-conceived notions of easy sex. But just because you find some skinny gay guy in your gym doesn’t mean he’s going to fall over himself have sex with you in the shower or sauna. Take that elsewhere!Īnd to all those straight men out there busy making sure my partner and I can never get married: I’m very sorry your wife or girlfriend won’t do anal or oral or just put out as often as you’d like. Gyms, like bars, may be for cruising, but not for sex.
And the one thing that sometimes creeps me out is when some big straight guy pegs me (OK, to be fair, correctly as it happens) as a skinny gay twink and then thinks (incorrectly) that this means he can just grab a little ass on the side ’cause he’s hard up. Live in a big city but not in a gayborhood, so my local gym is, well, just a gym. (One friend repeatedly reports locker room play to his gym’s management.) So I’ll pose the question to Queerty readers: Is cruising in the locker room something to be tolerated (or even encouraged), or cracked down on? Does it matter of the gym is in a gayborhood, or obviously caters to a gay clientele? Should we insist those who get caught be arrested? At the very least, lose their gym memberships? Does it harm The Gays’ reputation, or should that not matter? Maybe it’s just an innocent pastime we should honor and, if we don’t like it, ignore? And I also have plenty of friends who, while they don’t take part in locker room play, have no problem with it - so long as it doesn’t impact their ability to shower, shave, and change.
#GAY MEN CRUISING HOTEL GYM STORIES FULL#
Some are more discreet than others, choosing to play only behind enclosed shower stalls, while others don’t care if there’s a hand under their towel in full display of others taking a steam. Now I know plenty of other gay guys (some are my best friends) who engage in locker room activities. In London, two men were just arrested for doing just that in the sauna at a Virgin Active gym they’ve been charged with “outraging public decency” after employees rang the cops. But what I’d really like to see if those cameras inside a gym locker room, finding out how people react to seeing other guys screwing around in the showers and steam room.
We all know ABC News’ What Would You Do? cameras are willing to film people’s reactions to seeing two affectionate male soldiers or a father attacking his son for being gay.
