LA GYM TELLS MEMBERS TO STOP HAVING SEX IN MEN’S LOCKER ROOM

What? People there actually use the exercise equipment?

OP's jealousy is showing.

Isn't that what the steam room is for?

R2 no. I’m sick of gay men acting like animals with no self control.

R4 was uninvited.

....

Try to stop the tide from coming in… I’m 68 and I have yet to be in a gym that did not have hanky panky going on from university gyms, to Y’s to the posher clubs. Ever since I came of age (mid 70s) it’s been pretty ubiquitous. My guess is that it will never halt, men being the horn dogs that they are. Frankly if you don’t look for it or ignore it, it’s pretty much a non issue.

I love this comment from the article:

[quote] I belong to a gym that has several locations around LA that will go nameless. I can tell you that I have seen everything in the locker rooms from circle jerks to trains. If you are in an area where there are horny men that are GBTQ and straight men that look the other way, as they often do, it’s naive to think that it’s not happening.

Have the nacreous layers of perma cum been moves to the locker room floor from the steam room floor?

I prefer to have sex in the lobby of my gym.

That means you, John Travolta!

R4, not a gay thing, but a MAN thing. Men do shit like this regardless of their orientation. Straight men have been getting away with shit like this forever.

[quote]I’m sick of gay men acting like animals with no self control.

Davida, is that you?

Will no one think of the children?

I sure am.

Sluts are gross.

I'm not a slut, I'm a sex addict

They should approach it differently:

LA SEX CLUB TELLS MEMBERS TO STOP USING GYM EQUIPMENT

I'm sure the sign has nothing to do with the fact that the WeHo 24 Hour Fitness closed last month, and Crunch has taken in many of its former members.

I've never understood why some privater gyms don't just allocate a certain private area, accessible from the showers/lockerroom, for sexual activity. Like a small cruise maze or just build a second steam room. I mean, its not gonna stop as long as young guys have hormones.

Bally's clubs in Chicago used to have this going on constantly back in the day. When I worked out there in the early 90s, there was a near continuous circle jerk in the steam room, and I even saw guys fucking there (despite it being the heyday of the AIDS crisis). And you'd often see four feet under the curtain in one shower stall.

Locker room/future CDC hot zone.

Century Mall Bally's, r21!! I never joined, but it was infamous.

I think "La Gym" is what they call Congressman Jordan down at the member's health club.

R23, I was actually referring to the one at 25 E. Washington, on three levels below the ground. It was dark and filthy throughout and poorly maintained. But that worked to keep away people who actually wanted to work out, so it was just filled with sex addicts.

The Century Mall one was fun as well, but I think that had more of a 'gang shower', which is fun for watching but didn't offer as many play opportunities.

There is a Y in Evanston IL that had a steam room that was quite known for fun activity between Northwestern students and hot daddy types. How do I know? Because I participated. My point is it happens everywhere. Enough with the sex shaming.

Was Mike Pence caught there?

The issue is that folks shouldn't have to contort themselves not to watch people having sex.

It is NOT sex shaming to insist that people have sex in non-public places.

People shouldn't have to avoid the steam rooms or saunas to avoid being an unwilling participant in some exhibitionists fetishes or avoid getting hit on.

Even at "gay" gyms that caters to gay men, not everyone wants to see that - especially after getting a look at some of you people IN clothes. I definitely wouldn't want to see some of you people nekkid and grunting like a rutting pig.

If you're really into public sex you're going to have to learn to be more discreet.

I'd like to see MORE guys grunting like rutting pigs!

I think it's amazing that the gym is publicly acknowledging the gay sex occurring there.

It must be out of control.

Give 'em a break, OP. It's possible that among the sexual activity that took place there, there was a musclebro getting his ass eaten out as if it was the rimmer's last meal. Surely you can have an ounce of sympathy for that.

I knew a guy in the right before grindr days who would get blown in the crunch steam room practically every single day.

r31 or it's a cultural trend right now to reboot everything including gay panic.

consider the non stop discussions on pride with the only target being gay dudes

34 comments and not a single "This is why they hate us"

You all are slipping

[quote] especially after getting a look at some of [bold]you people[/bold] IN clothes.

Wow.

Them R35? This is why I hate us.

This is why I avoid gyms. This kind of activity is disgusting. Think of the athlete's foot or any of those communal diseases. I much rather jog outdoors etc away from people.

^ Fat whore who’s jealous because the fit bros won’t fuck his fat ass

From 2018 ...

^ It is called class and decency. If I am horny in the middle of public should I just take off someone's pants and begin fucking? Seriously, have some decency.

It's really easy on a board like this to dismiss any criticism of locker room antics as moralistic prudery, but the issue is more complex than that. I have no problem with sex in places like this is it's done with a bit of discretion. No one should have any problem with it. But to pretend you won't see this activity unless you're looking for it, is delusional. I've seen some wildly inappropriate stuff within eye shot of kids at a public pool in my town. I've had dicks waved at me in the shower when I've had no interest. Tone it down please.

Gym?

Crunch should stick to "inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated". Some poor guy is reading that thinking... gays fuck here?

R33, you knew John Travolta?

You can always get some action at the Y.

Can't they just create a separate area for man-on-man sex?

Think of the straight bros at the gym, whores.

My gym in downtown Chicago used to have "nap rooms" in a separate area of the men's locker room. Small rooms with a leather covered daybed, used mainly by old farts in the middle of the afternoon. But the rooms were also popular with some of the members in the evenings for extracurricular activities, even though this particular club was not known for having a gay clientele. I would see guys cruising each other in the showers or the steamroom, then discretely head back to meet in one of the nap rooms. It became such a problem the club had to remove the rooms. Pity.

East Bank, R49?

R50, yes.

God, I miss East Bank, especially the rooftop pool and bar.

Did it close, r52, or did you move?

I moved. Also the $175 a month plus parking was difficult to justify. I saw Senator Obama, Oprah, Stedman, Jessie Jackson there, among other local celebrities. Had my 40th birthday party there on the river. I loved the market where you could buy healthy food to go.

Stedman? Was he cruising for guys?

Well, it was in the men's locker room, but hard to say he was cruising.

R54, monthly dues are now $220.

"My fellow gays"????

OP's cheap hair dye has finally eaten through to his brain.

Whew, r57. I figured costs went up. It's been 7 years or so since I left Chicago. It was heaven, though, as far as gyms go.

I thought all those porn scenes set in gyms were meant to be educational.

Thank you, Barrett Long!

I had two years of membership in East Bank thanks to my job at the time. It wasn't every visit or anything, but I tasted quite a few cocks and hairy asses there. They aren't plentiful nor obvious but there are private rooms and spaces if you know where to look.

Still remember being between two hot daddy types in a steam/hot tub area ....one a news anchor and one a somewhat well known restauranteur. Fun was had by all.

I also remember a downtown Y in my hometown that had most of the city hall guys there after work. Still remember the hairy ape of a man who worked in the public works department and worked out there. Married, 8 kids, never passed up little gaylings like me with hungry mouths that could take his half gallon loads.....man, he could get hard if a gust of wind blew past his zipper. LOL

Dongs need exercise, too.

This is why we cant have nice things like all male steam rooms.

Seriously, this is why all the gyms in LA got rid of their steam rooms inside the men's locker rooms during "upgrades" and made them co-ed and out in the open. Now going to the steam room usually means I have to stare at some fat Frau in a tube top.

R8: “From Circle Jerks to Trains”, the Aaron Schock story.

If only you had cleaned up after yourselves. Someone else’s spooge is only appealing if you worked for it.

This is not the first time sings like this appear. I remember the gay gym in WeHo that had a NO J/O sticker outside the steam room. Their attempt to be humorous about not having sex in there. News Flash, didn't work.

Am I going to say it? Not surprised this was at Crunch. Of gyms I've been to, I'd say Crunch is the one that most conceptualizes "activity" as something that needs to be crushed, eliminated.

Why don't they just call the cops and have these freaks arrested?

All guys, gay or straight, are generally looking at any given time, just need a willing interested partner. Men are men, the sex drive is very strong, it must satisfied and satiated, men will not be denied, sex is a biological imperative, you handle your business and then go about the rest of your day.

My sense is that some of it is pretty innocent. And some straight guys discover in the more crowded/active gyms a guy can tug on himself a little bit and go back to work.

The seething jealousy of certain posters, like r68, is hilarious

R68 is probably a frau.

It's all pretty innocent.

People are.....

It's time

for sex

with strangers!

eh. that version at r75 is fucked up

I want a full service gym so I can get ALL my muscles exercised

[quote] I saw Senator Obama, Oprah, Stedman, Jessie Jackson there, among other local celebrities.

R54, if you have stories to tell, please spill! (But you can skip any involving Oprah).

Younger out gay guys, outside of meth freaks, are not having indiscriminate sex with strangers. In fact they look down on it. It's only older gay guys who grew up in the 70s, and closet cases who are doing this. Who goes to the Baths for instance.

This whole thread reaks of eldergays and married straight men.

R61 That you, Michael Musto?

Seriously, some low class gays continue to perpetuate gay stereotypes and that’s why GP hate us. You fucking trash

Obviously, r79 has never been to a gym in his life.

There are so many younger guys fooling around in my gym’s sauna, showers and locker room.

[quote] Still remember being between two hot daddy types in a steam/hot tub area ....one a news anchor and one a somewhat well known restauranteur. Fun was had by all.

R79 says HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Call me an eldergay but I miss the sauna and steam room (haven't been to a gym since covid). I wish I'd taken more advantage of the sneaky opportunities. Yes, there were some elderly trolls, but as R82 says, also some young guys and plenty of horny hot guys in their 30s and 40s.

Pics?

R25, the really cruisy Bally's in Chicago was the one on the top floor of Illinois Center, which they closed around 1990. I was fresh out of college and I had never seen so many hard dicks in the one year before they closed. The steam room had a double door, so there was plenty of warning, and it was just non-stop action.

Is t that what men do ? We are pigs and love getting our clocks sucked, anywhere! Deal with it OP. It’s pry of the gym culture.

Look the other way.

R87, I never went to the Illinois Center one, as I didn't move to Chicago until 1991 and it may have been closed, In addition to Bally's, I went to Athletic Club at Illinois Center (it later became part of Lakeshore Athletic) which had plenty of action of its own. On a couple of occasions, I ended up jacking off with one of their hot instructors (who was a lawyer by day) in a bathroom stall and also in a rarely-used stairwell between floors off the locker room. Damn, I was a slut as a youngster.

[quote] Is t that what men do ? We are pigs and love getting our clocks sucked, anywhere! Deal with it OP. It’s pry of the gym culture.

Are you typing with one hand from a steam room?

Jaysus!

Hey, Did anyone hear about that new strain of Shigella going around?

[quote]Younger out gay guys, outside of meth freaks, are not having indiscriminate sex with strangers. In fact they look down on it.

Yes, now they all rely on the apps and show up at a stranger's door, and despite the conquest not looking remotely like his 10 year-old picture , and having an extra 40 pounds on him, they go ahead and blow him and get fucked, because by the time they have gotten to the conquest's house, well they're horny and they're there now, so wtf! And how very very convenient that the majority of them have 'open relationships' to absolve themselves of any guilt for their flagrant promiscuity.

Young guys are having indiscriminate sex all over the place; you live in lala land if you think otherwise. Granted covid has slowed down rando-hook-ups in the past 24 months, but it'll be back, bigger than ever.

Its all going on, there just isn't the 'out on the street' that there used to be.

[quote] no. I’m sick of gay men acting like animals with no self control.

Then what are you doing here?

r79 you're right the young women cosplaying as anime gay dudes probably aren't doing that.

[quote]Younger out gay guys, outside of meth freaks, are not having indiscriminate sex with strangers. In fact they look down on it.

Bwhahahaha, the current generation of young gays is no different than their predecessors when it comes to hooking up; its only the actual mechanism of hooking up that has changed. Just ask any doctor working in an infectious diseases clinic.

Just don’t mention my name there.

What these men need is fellowship in a more wholesome setting, like my men's prayer group.

r97 they need to join a fratnerity, a brotherhood, a secret club like balls and shaft, er, I mean skull and crossbones.

A-fucking-men.

Oh, excuse my language, padre.

Oh shut up, OP, you damned scold.

Sex at the gym was the primary reason for my working out for 30 years and I had more fun than I can say.

Sex with hot, beautiful, married DILFs at the gym was my motivation for going to work every day and getting through the day.

I saw and tasted some beautiful men, and working out meant I was on a later train home, with far fewer people....win win, bitches!

Yes, it’s like call girls saying they are different than street hookers. Hooking up via app doesn’t make you any less of of a ho.

Describing people as fitness enthusiasts strikes me funny. Some guys want to be in the gym every day. Some guys want to be in Jim every day. That's the difference.

Voltaire said that puns were the death of humor ^

Puns are for the lazy. I plead guilty.

Fat, lazy whore R106

R79, nice try , lol-

[quote]Younger out gay guys, outside of meth freaks, are not having indiscriminate sex with strangers. In fact they look down on it. It's only older gay guys who grew up in the 70s, and closet cases who are doing this.

Spend two minutes on Sniffies, where the average age is about 27, and you'll discover how wrong you are.

It may be only a minority of younger gays, but it was only ever a minority of the older gays too.

Is that the LA gym where John Travolta went to?

[quote] r79 reaks of eldergays

Oh, DEAR…

R2 OP is the moonfaced Ewwdwin in Brooklyn . It is an unfuckable obese bald seacow that pretends it’s ex was a straight webcam “model”.

It got so bad at some locations of NYSC that certain gays would take over the steam room for sexual activity and if you didn’t fit into their plan they would be nasty to you until you left.

I get it because there were a bunch of ancient pervs who would go to the Harlem branch especially for black men and nobody wants some crypt keeper clawing at your junk. However to take over a gym steam room and act like it’s Studio 54 and you don’t get in because we don’t want to associate with you is ridiculous.

But NYSC was/is the lowest class gym ever. They never cancelled anyone’s membership as long as they could collect that monthly fee. There used to be a mentally ill gay guy who would scream at people if he was trying to get sex and didn’t want others around.

[quote] reaks of eldergays

I’m going to start saying a Wreak of Eldergays.

That retard E d w I n is the OP?

That explains everything…especially the outrage that young gays don’t hook up. No guy would deign to tough that fat stupid retard with a barge pole.

The standard creepy guy in the gyn locker room who is perpetually getting dressed and showering is like a bridge troll in storybooks. It’s one thing to jerk off/play when no one is around, but too many gay guys are either too indiscreet or are such brazen lurkers that it’s an actual problem. People should be able to use the facilities without being stalked or harassed.

Is there any correlation between increase of gay sexual activity in the gym and the decrease of gay bathhouses?

I’d prefer a bathhouse, because at least that’s what it’s for. But between COVID and all the meth junkies and homeless guys using them as a drug den/flophouse, bathhouses are a thing of the past.

Does the semen clog the drains there too?

R78, I don't have much in the way of stories. Jessie Jackson and Stedman I saw in the locker room wearing towels, not together. They looked fine, but not hot, for men their age. Obama I saw on a treadmill in the huge cardio room. He's whisper thin. He still plays basketball at East Bank when he's in town. I know you don't want to hear about Oprah, but I spent half an hour on a treadmill looking at her ass crack, so you're going to hear about it. She was two rows in front of me on a stairmaster. It was fairly late at night and it wasn't crowded. She was dressed in cute gym clothes that didn't provide enough coverage for a woman her size. On the stairmaster, there was a significant amount of skin shown between her shirt and pants, with several inches of ass crack. She always had a trainer and a bodyguard with her at that time.

Why don't they hire bouncers or call the cops on the creeps that are fucking in there?

With all Oprah’s money, why did she use a public gym?

She liked to show her ass crack to the public, R121.

[quote] that pretends it’s ex

Oh, dear!

R122 Oprah does it as a courtesy to those that haven't visited the grand canyon.

East Bank is pretty private, it's not like Francine Frau can go in there and ask Oprah for an autograph.

The exclusive feel was actually part of why I liked to go - I can't say I was dedicated to fitness. But it was a mix of very notable high-up muckety mucks of Chicago business, notable local (and sometimes worldwide) stars, and then also - some of the hottest fitness types you've ever seen in your life.

Not a lot of towel dancing in that locker room, and it was beautiful! LOL

Gyms, the baths, the docks, the meat packing district...they're all the same, aren't they?

Oprah's downtown Chicago place was in the Hancock Building, which had limited space. Harpo Studios is in the West Loop and is actually closer to East Bank. Based on the timing, she was going after work.

I loved the locker room at East Bank and the massage therapists weren't lookers, but did a fantastic job.

Pics?

R115 Yep this is the obese tard Ewwdwin’s “timchalametsbitch” account that he uses to troll the site along with his other main account.

R128, Oprah had a 9600 sq foot 2-story condo on the northeast corner of the 56th and 57th floor of Water Tower Place. She never lived in the Hancock, which could be seen from her north facing windows. (She backed out of the purchase of a full-floor co-op on East Lake Shore Drive when that building's maintenance workers went on a well publicized strike.) While she lived in Chicago, she also had a huge "farm" in Indiana.

When she was going to EBC, she would show up around 7pm in black sweats with a black baseball cap pulled down low. If people recognized her (most did not), they left her alone. She stopped coming to EBC when she purchased an adjoining condo in Water Tower Place to create an in-home gym. It took her a couple of years to sell the condo after she moved to California, and then only after it was sub-divided into three smaller units.

Stedman still comes to EBC when he is in town for work.

Just as there will always be members who will have sex at the gym, there will always be people who will complain (kinda like the DL). The sign is the gym showing the complainers (and their potential lawyers) that they're 'doing something' about it.

It's a sign.

R131 I thought she lived in the building that was the only building on the lake side of Lake Shore Drive. Is that Water Tower Place? (I assumed Water Tower Place was off Michigan.)

I had a lot of fun at my gym. We had private showers. Is a great place to play between sets.

No, r133, r131 is correct. You're thinking of Lake Point Towers and that's not where she lived. I was wrong about Hancock Building too.

When I lived in West Hollywood there were men hooking up in the sauna and cruising going on at 24 Hr Fitness. I also caught a man in the women's locker room (I am a woman obviously). I'm at a gay gym (mostly) and I end up encountering the one creepy straight man. Apparently he would take a bus in, and go to this gym. No matter what time I would go it seems I'd find him there. He would stare at me on the floor while using the equipment. It was scary because I lived around the corner and I worried he'd find out where I lived. No idea why he singled me out.

One night I had a feeling, and I went into the locker room. I waited around the door/corner and sure enough he walked in. He saw me and ran. Another time, I went in and he was already in there looking under the women's shower. He ran. I told the staff but apparently he jumped over a wall and was gone. I can't remember if they were able to identify him by his membership but I think maybe. There were a lot of various creepy things that happened here.

My other story is I ended up hooking up with the girl at the front desk briefly, I really miss those days in wild WeHo!

Thanks for a pleasant answer R135.

It appears I was misinformed but I came by that misinformation honestly......

No one wants to step in your Santorum sluts.

So wear flip flops!

In that kind of a toxic dump, flip-flops would probably dissolve.

I am always shocked when I see guys walking barefoot in the showers and steam room.

Sign

No sex?

Management is such a wet blanket.

Keep it at home sluts!

Lots of old threads being bumped today, when there are also a lot of Putin trolls active.

I prefer public sex at private clubs.

Just have the heteros stay out.

Anyone remember the old 24Hour Fitness on Bellflower in Long Beach in the 90s? If there ever was a locker room designed for cruising that was it. I'm sure it was "remodeled" years ago.

I liked to take a shower were everyone could see my ass, bend over, wash my legs, and then quickly turn around to see the guys watching me. Fun times. Then there was a time a Hispanic guy reached over and stuck his middle finger right up my butt! The nerve.

R149, You’re the creep dudes refer to on social media. And not in a good way

Do gym shower trolls fight over gym locations like panhandlers fight over intersections?

You Should Be Towel Dancing

r150 Innocent fun. Never did anything with anybody.

If that gym expelled the gay guys having sex there, their memberships would drop 60%.

Then why bother going there?

Bring back communal showers! And steam rooms and saunas where guys are stroking cock.

The recent and current crop of locker room architects are uptight, homophobic Nazis that have done away with every gay locker room vice and cruisy element. Knock it off. You're ruining everything and making my cock wilt...not to mention making everyone paranoid. Let men be naked with other men! It's the way it is meant to be.

Hey there

Shower together

Shower together

Locker room

Whose gym is this?

The good ol' days in B&W...

boys

sneak peek

Shake it, boys

While my business associate Benji and I are appalled by the "homo-sex-uality",

we sometimes find the smell of all that semen and testosterone intoxicating...

As a gay man, I’d like a revival of the gay ghettos. I want gay neighborhoods with gay owned businesses. I’m sick of assimilation, I want our own safe space. If we had our own gay owned gym, sexual activity there wouldn’t be an issue.

We need to take back our neighborhoods from the straights and their fraus. They’ll turn on us anyway.

Oprah had a bodyguard with her at the gym? WTF? ==> He was only there to make sure everyone recognized her. <==

I was jerked off there at around 10:45 in the morning on a weekday. Right out in the open in front of the lockers. The guy was short, had memorable pecs and he stroked me until I came…admittedly all of 3-4 minutes. Then I went back to work.

Workout and then Go Home!

Exactly. They should ban people who engage in sexual activity in public spaces or gyms

Bump

Anyone else think that if a “kid” catches a couple guys fooling around in an adult gym (not likely) of a public space that it will traumatize them? Why? What’s traumatic about, unless they were witnessing a rape.

Bold

R174 what?!? 👂🏽

I have no idea what the old guy said in R 174

Is he telling him that he’s supposed to put his phone to off?

OnlyFans whores can't help themselves, no wonder gyms have had sufficient.

Maybe we should go back to the original way it was done where Roman baths were public places to bath, socialize AND have sex. Where they were a part of life celebrated as a city gem in beautiful buildings, not some dirty sex club with sticky floors in sketchy neighborhoods with security guards.

Every now and then someone posts “outrage” at the randy behavior of men in gyms. I’m 68 and have been using gyms since I was 18- college, Y, posh clubs- you name it all going back to the early 70s. Got news for you: It’s ubiquitous and has been so my whole adult life since I became aware. And it ain’t gonna stop unless someone comes up with an anti testosterone drug- which no one will use. Men are men: horny. Always has been and always will be. Doesn’t bother me, hardly!

[quote]Roman baths were public places to bath,

Oh, dear!

R178’s link is riddled with pop ups. Do not click.

Who the fuck doesn't use a basic pop-up blocker these days? Even your own browser should have a setting to prevent them, Jesus.

It got past both my pop up blockers.

I think that this is a stealth advertising campaign: "Our locker room is hotbed of sex--even YOU can score here! Sign up now!"

R148, I used to go there. I was so naive, but even I could tell it was the epicenter of cruising. They once put up a sign that went something like: "No smoking, littering, sexual activity., drinking..." I laughed that they just dropped sexual activity in the middle of the list.

Makes me think of that bit in Sex and the City where the girls go to a gay club and wonder why no straight men look like the gay men surrounding them. "Gay men have the possibility of sex at the gym" is the reason they give for gay men looking so much fitter, haha.

That’s obviously a very dated, preInstagram, preTiktok, preGenZ, pre male aesthetics bros reference.

Exactly, R188, I think that episode was in around 2000/2001? I was thinking as I typed that that it would make no sense today.

as a lady, i am flummoxed by the filthy proclivities going on wherever y'all go.

Not sure how this is a good idea with everyone walking around with w smart phone camera in their hand. Plus public sex would probably even be offensive to the average gay millennial and Gen Zer. I would assume most would report you immediately to management.

[quote]Plus public sex would probably even be offensive to the average gay millennial and Gen Zer.

Ha ha ha!

I would say the average age of the guys hanging around outside the sauna at my gym, looking for someone to hook up with, is 30.

The guy at R178 looks like he smells of meth and protein drink farts.

Maybe that’s why he’s so lonely.

For those who think this is a thing of the past or that hot, younger guys aren’t into it, visit any Equinox steam room this afternoon.

R168- He wasn't guarding Oprah. He was guarding the dozen jelly donuts she was going to WOLF down after her workout.

[quote] And it ain’t gonna stop unless someone comes up with an anti testosterone drug- which no one will use. Men are men: horny

Excuse me… I would take it. I wish I didn’t have such a high sex drive that doesn’t see, to get lower as I age! It would save me a lot of trouble if I just didn’t feel sexual desire anymore.

The Op the Brooklyn Seacow Ed.win is such a hypocrite, the fat beast stalks white men and films them and zooms in on their asses in grocery stores behind their backs. Ed.win is a disgusting sex pest with zero self control!!

R178 Hungskater also has a nice body, ass, and feet.

I had no idea people were in the gym to hookup... yes, I am a gay man. I do not like gyms, I prefer to get my exercise outside. The gym seems like an odd place, everyone is smelly and sweaty after a work out. Who would even use those showers? Probably filled with disease, athletes foot, maybe Monkeypox...lord knows what else these days. Plus sex in a public place is illegal, wouldn't people be worried about being arrested? Risky risky behavior...

He still looks like he smells.

Gee r201, you sound like fun!

2016 J. K. Booster opines on the joys and politics of gym sex at 5:28

R204 He is painfully unfunny.

Is Booster the one that tells a story about tonguing a guy's ass and having the guy shit in his mouth?

Op Brooklyn Seacow would you be opposed to these guys getting down in the gym?

This is why I work out in the outdoors. Sex is not for the gym. Cruising should be punishable by death.

LOL R208, you sound like that Slo4n guy who got so incensed that another guy cruised him when he was walking down Vaseline Alley at 3 in the morning.

R209 hunny I’m so hideous I don’t even know the signs of being cruised. I don’t think I have ever been in my life.

R210, please don't talk about yourself like that. I can't stand people beating themselves up like that.

You're beautiful.

R198, my point exactly earlier in the thread. Calm down ladies- men are glorious pigs!

So....they should have sex in the fish locker room instead?

If I was paying the monthly membership price for a gym in LA... hell yeah I'm having sex there.

Men having sex at the baths is as old as time. Ancient Romans in the public baths were hooking up. It’s inappropriate, however, in a modern setting where people are just there to get cleaned up after workout.

Been there done that. I'm glad to hear there is still sauna and gym action. Whore on!

The presence of fish ruins everything, as usual.

R201, MARY!!!

So? So is murder. That doesn't make it permissible.

[quote]The Suburban Baths of Pompeii had erotic wall paintings featuring group and oral sex scenes suggesting that people back then would not have found such erotic scenes offensive.

The Romans had different views on sexuality.

[quote]Men having sex at the baths is as old as time. Ancient Romans in the public baths were hooking up. It’s inappropriate, however, in a modern setting where people are just there to get cleaned up after workout.

Do you have other historical proof besides one perverted writing?

Yes. There is a plethora of academic writing on the subject of Roman sexuality including what went on at the baths. Google and you'll find examples of those books and many articles on it that have appeared in the popular press. The website I linked to is hardly "perverted".

WW for R204

Crusing is a vintage thing and I want to bring it back, like some people like churning butter. 😂

R224 Cruising is gross, disgusting, public, and wrong. We should hang those who have sex in PUBLIC!

My experience with my straight male friends who are quite comfortable with gay men, obviously- are envious of the ease with which gay men hook up. They get it because women are a tougher nut to crack in general.

No one wants to worry about sitting or stepping in your leavings, so take it home or at least to your car.

Just take him back home, why do it in the showers with the risk of getting caught?

Because that’s half the fun, R228

Fun for who R229?

R204 he is so not funny

R225 = Russian frau alert. Why do they even come here?

R232 Ahh the famous “they have a different opinion so they must be a Russian troll” person… I am gay and think cruising is disgusting. Not everyone thinks the same way as you dear.

I prefer the person who accuses anyone with a differing opinion on topics pertaining to race as a black woman from Lipstick Alley. I’ve been accused of that numerous times.

Sex in the gym/locker/steam room is a common porn fantasy scenario because let's face it, it's fucking HOT

If I ever owned a gym I would love it to be a free-for-all as long as everyone signing up knew what they were getting themselves in for - if you aren't able to conduct yourself respectfully in an environment where NOT everyone is 'on the same page' so to speak then you shouldn't be there.

sorry, gym sex is hot. it's a shame some are unwilling (unable?) to experience it.

Nope, that's not it all. What's "disgusting is how uptight you are about men flirting with one another. That's all cursing is. But apparently you don't know that. Not all eyes that meet suddenly result in sexual hookup. Only a woman ( from a very repressed country) would think men making eye contact because they are sexually attracted to each other is disgusting. If you really are a gay man then you need some counseling.

I blame onlyfans

More for you R236, so lap it up.

R237 yes I am gay and I think sex in a public or semi-public place is. It right. Call me prude or Mary or whatever but that’s what I think.

^^ isn't right

Oh Dear!

Oh I didn’t know getting naked in a semi-public place and jerking each other off is flirting. No one’s ever done that to me so I guess I am just that ugly…

Oh dear!

I had really hot sex in an old YMCA gym repeatedly with a muscle guy when I was young and single. When I worked in a gym later though, these men were sad, lonely and absolutely haunted the place.

They deliberately design gyms, restrooms and other areas to discourage this nowadays- my fancy new gym has half a dozen coed, seperate shower/toilet facilities for each member and it seems to be a trend in the boutique gyms.

Cruising is also why you’ll often see trash bags covering a urinal as “out of order”, and why most newer restaurants have only one instead of two- because guys were meeting up on Sniff. I wouldn’t nowadays because it’d be too easy to get caught and go on record as a sex offender, especially if children are around!

I feel sorry for all the young prisspots!

"so I guess I am just that ugly"

Probably.

All the comments about the East Bank Club remind me of where you could find sex if you were in Chicago. Of course, you could always go to Steamworks ... still can. But in the late 1990s and early 2000s, you could get some good gym sex downtown at the Lakeshore Athletic Club.

The one north of the river on Wabash had a huge steam room with a two door entry. That steam room was long, deep, and dimly lit. When the steam was running, from where you walked in, there was no way to see all the way to the back of the room. Lots of hot guys getting off together. And if you wanted a little privacy, you could go to the showers on the other side of the locker room and share a private shower.

The one on Stetson -- behind the Illinois Center -- had a large steam room, banks of showers with lots of men peeking around the shower curtains, and a hot tub with bubbles that hid some friendly touching under the surface of the water. I can remember times when the steam room had five or six guys all jerking off together. When I was traveling through Chicago for work, I went there enough that I saw the same guy working out in the gym and then later stroking his cock in the wet area. His name was James and he became a kind of a regular gym sex buddy. He was dark haired, fit, handsome with a sweet smile, and had a big meaty cock.

Fond memories. I think both of these locations are closed now.

I miss at you R245 as no one would touch me in a steam room and they’d probably ask me to leave.

R246, were you trying to say "hiss?"

Did they clean up the foot thick layer of petrified cum?

I was totally unaware this happens. This is disgusting. What’s next? Sex in the restaurant booths?
