Filled with the nastiest of manwhores and old trolls, all snorting coke and huffing amyl nitrate.

deplorable

>>8324562
I've never been and would never go because I'm not built like Chris Evans.

Far beyond my capabilities but something I support in spirit because the meaning of life and all that.

>>8324562
I think it's gross and can't really believe people actually go and fuck a stranger in some dirty place.

>>8324604
Nothing wrong with a lil amyl nitrate, friendo

>>8326685
Actually, there is a lot wrong with it. There is a major connection between the spread of amyl nitrate poppers and the spread of HIV. Poppers more than double the risk of infection.

>>8326726
Yeah if you're fucking retarded enough to have unprotected sex with a stranger in the first place
Poppers are fun

>>8326726
>Poppers more than double the risk of infection.
Correlation isnt the fucking same as causation you actual retard.

Do you also believe Ice Cream trucks cause skin cancer?

>>8324562
Cool concept but in reality really gross.

>>8324562

i find the idea of them hot, but in practicality the likelihood of STDs repulses me

>>8326726
>Poppers more than double the risk of infection.

By what mechanism?
Correlation does not imply causation.

>>8326822
I'm worried about the gay community--myself in particular--when HIV is no longer an issue.

I had gonorrhea once. It was fine and cleared up a day after I got the shot, but there are resistant strains out there these days that the gays will undoubtedly spread like wildfire when AIDS is gone.

>>8327019
Meh, won't notice much of a difference between gays and straights.

HIV is relatively hard to get.
Gonorrhea isn't.

>>8327777
Except gay males are already spearheading the resurgence of syphilis.

To be this basic.

>>8324562
So everyone says no to bathhouses. Even Steamworks in Chicago, Illinois?

>>8328167
The kind of people that go to those kinds of places are not hanging out on 4chan, generally speaking.

>>8324562
I've been to one once. Was during a bad time in my life where I was very depressed and addicted to drugs. Went out drinking then was given some addies by a friend and we went after. It was a weird experience... everyone took laps around the place all night/morning and it was filled with mainly older men (and a lot of Arabs). I sucked off a muzzie or two and fucked one of the only twinks there in a sling and felt very dirty and ashamed for the next week or so. Thankfully I didn't catch anything but have had 0 desire to go back since then.

>being this stupid

>>8328154
So then what mechanism of poppers causes an increased risk of HIV transmission, exactly? Do poppers contain AIDS?

>>8328167
>tfw my straight roommate's uncle owns that steamworks

I'm really amazed when it gets brought up as the pinnacle of the bathouse world.

>>8328301
what is amazing about that, exactly?

>>8328301
Just that of all the bath houses in the country, he owns THAT one.

>>8328425
Does he live in Chicago?

>>8328301
soo, do you go or not?

>>8324562

A good way to 'legally' spread STDs, STIs, and HIV.

A good way for desperate individuals to be sexually intimate with others.

>>8324562
They're disgusting and unsanitary.
I can't believe people actually go there. Like do people seriously just not give a fuck about STDs? It's no wonder the hiv rate is so high.

>>8324562
I wish there were lesbian bathhouses, but not for fucking, just for hanging out and bathing. Sort of like what they have in Japan except with a few private bath or shower stalls/rooms. Am I weird?

True story incoming.

Grab a seat.

When I was young, stupid and horny I'd heard of a bath house in my area and rumors of unbridled ahegao fuck you silly fun times with delicious muscle men.

And I, being young stupid and horny was intrigued. I longed for a tsunami of cocks to crash upon my face and the thought of getting spit roasted by an army of Adonis incarnates was music to my ears.

So a sunday morning fuckbuddy and I made plans to visit this venerable mecca of manly men and get plowed while kissing each other.

I arrived 30 minutes early. Sitting in my car I gazed at the neon sign but I didn't see a soul enter or leave. My heart raced, thinking of the fun we would soon be having

Minutes before I committed I received a text reading something akin to "lol coldfeet your on your own lol"

He was always a cold fish.

But hey, more cock for me right? With a light step and a sexy strut I walked in, expecting to be surrounded by gorgeous men.

First thing I noticed was how dark it was ala raver night. A deep voice from behind a metal panel asked if I was a member, no. he said there'd be a $15 first time charge and asked if I wanted a membership. No I said, just browsing. Got a locker key, a towel and a gross grunt from the faceless metal panel.

Still no men, I quickly made my way to the matching locker, undressed, wrapped the towel around my waist and ventured into the spa...

If hell is a place, it was here before me; Fat disgusting old men. and Buffalo Bill cosplayers everywhere. I could SMELL the degeneracy on them. Every synpase in my body told me to RUN but like I said before

I was young, stupid and horny

Suddenly all eyes were on me, the whisper thin twink with long hair and brown eyes, surrounded by freaks.

I figured "there's got to be a Hercules around here to come rescue me" so I slipped into a hot tub and waited. There was hardcore sling orgy porn on the flatscreen and godawful 1980s electro wafting through the bath house.

to be cont.

Minutes passed, I began getting anxious. I could hear whispers and groans from the men around me. In that moment I contemplated celibacy, possibly castration.

I almost bolted when a giant bear with a gut that screamed Natty Ice is Whats for Dinner slipped in and put an arm around me.

He smelt like sweat you could only accumulate from swinging a sledgehammer all day and invisible dingleberries. He had a face only a blind semi retarded mother could love, red with heat and the potential of violating me.

"Hey there sweet thing, want to fool around? I got a couple buddies in the back with a private room and they'd LOVE to make your acquaintance!" or something to that effect.

My cock did a complete 360 and for moment became a vagina. It took all my will power to squeak out NO THANK YOU.

"That's fine, I understand. Plenty of fish in the sea." and he jumped out. The hair on his ass reminded me of an nightmarish Ewok, gazing into my fragile soul.

Minutes passed and I was beginning to understand I'd been shanghai'd, if Shanghai is a giant hairy man clawing hungrily at your asscrack.

Fuck this, I was ready to opt to and count this as an embarrassing strike on my youth.

I got out, wrapped the towel and headed for the exit before I heard a voice I could only describe as smooth olive oil called to me. I quickly turned around and laid eyes on the very thing I had come here for.

Six foot two thousand, rock hard abs you could grind diamonds on and a face I wanted to sit on for the rest of my life.

"You're new here aren't you? What say we ditch this party and grab some drinks?"

Best advice I've heard all day mister! Get dressed, head to a nearby cock bar. He buys me drinks and tells me the ins and outs *snrk* of the bath house Like a young aspiring monk sitting before the master atop a mountain, he opened me eyes to the ugly reality.

"A dainty little thing like you is better suited to messing around with your friends, not ugly people."

"B-but what about you? You're gorgeous!"

He smiled briefly followed by a sad look of resignation.

"I have AIDS. When guys hear that kind of thing, they balk. I was actually waiting on a couple friends like myself until I saw you."

H-huh?! My heart skipped a beat. Then he laid some truth on me

"The idea of a sweet thing like you enduring that kind of shit is abhorrent to me so I got you out of there."

Stirred my drink, maybe it was the 5th Mai Tai or my heart bleeding for this man but I asked if he was interested.

He laughed "You? Not a chance in hell sweet cheeks." I was crushed but despite my youthful stupidity I could see what he was driving home.

"You should go home little guy." That was my que to plant a kiss on his cheek and leave. I asked what his name was, Francisco Alamillo. My heart fluttered hearing that.

I left and never saw him again. Years later I'd heard he had succumbed. Broke my heart but I think he saved me a lifetime of suffering.

~le fin~

>>8328469
Nope. His uncle does obviously

>>8329192
lmao if you rememeber names

>>8326726
Complete uninformed, probably-straight person detected

There is no link between amyl and STDs except correlation of risky behaviors.

>>8326816
>he doesnt know icecream trucks are turning the frogs gay

>>8329192
TIL morally good gay people exist

>>8328592
Never been to Chicago, sadly

Only been to one bathhouse. It was in London. Walked in, got naked and immediately ran into a guy that I had given a business presentation to about an hour earlier. He got me out of there.

Lets assume it was all hot guys and they were clean. Im still not sure I would like it. I understand it, I think, but theres something about people who take it so casually that turns me off. Once you commercialize anything, its ruined.

Maybe Im f'd in the head, but I like some intrigue. I like the chase, the eye-flirting, trading hints. That interlude where you know some guy you've been schmoozing with from some random conversation just realized theres a chance to dump his nut in a fag and he is thinking it over without saying anything. When you drop a hint and he is figuring it out. When he already caught you looking at his basket and you deliberately let him catch you again.

Thats a thrill for me. All these things where everyone cautiously feels each other out through apps and sites from behind the safety of a device seems so dull to me. Wheres the adventure.

Your own eyes can tell you all you need to know in a real world encounter. Dont fish in a sewer and you wont catch shit and trash.

>>8331790
Nah, I have that deep internal fantasy of a whole gang of hot gay guys taking turns filling both holes and cumming in both ends.

Of course I'd never do it just because of STD fears, but if I could do it free of consequences if jump on so fucking fast.

>>8329192
>despite my youthful stupidity I could see what he was driving home.
Really tugged on my heartstrings Anon. Thank the gay gods for Francisco Alamillo.

>>8331790
Though I'd probably like that as well, but I've never picked up guys in person. The closest is a non-explicitly-sexual Grindr date I had where the guy told me about the guys he goes home with and I by the end I asked if I was one of those guys. Needless to say we went home and fooled around, but that was still pretty explicit.
