Gay locker room shower
Some saunas will have snoozing areas - nothing too fancy, maybe a few sofas or sticky mattresses on the floor. Get a room. Traveling is often better than arriving. That might be why some seem so reticent to do anything. Then again, you may find yourself having a very memorable experience with one or more people.
The men's locker room contains 5 shower stalls, 3 on the right and 2 on the left. Gay saunas are sex-positive places. One of the idiotic issues with gay teammates in the locker room we’ve heard over the years is that maybe the gay guy will “look at” a teammate in the shower.
Also, some people like to watch and not participate. Some people will walk around the maze waiting for Jonathan Bailey or Matt Bomer to show up. Not engaging or acknowledging is perfectly acceptable in a public space where sex is happening. Expect men in towels looking at other men in towels.
Communication occurs on a nonverbal, almost psychic level. The first time you step into a gay sauna can be an unnerving experience.
Experiences in the locker : That’s when I heard it
It all comes down to sauna etiquette and the luck of the draw. No one hands you instructions when you walk into a gay sauna. I'm working up a sweat in the sauna when I noticed two dudes go into a single shower stall. In many saunas, the insides of the cabins are quite visible for peeping toms over cm.
Others will continue their quest for the unobtainable. Eyes to yourself and just go about your business. The gym locker room rules are simple and apply to every person gay or straight.
People will naturally check each other out and size each other up regardless of their orientation. They may even be chatting so much they forgot to turn the bubbles back on and the jacuzzi water is now flat. This is a more informal space. You then find yourself cruising around, trying to figure out the space - or at least reacquaint yourself with it.
The anticipation of what you might find can outstrip the pleasure of actually doing it, so to speak. You take a shower on your way in, and even more eyes are roving. Flirting often occurs in the jacuzzi, along with fairly muted conversations about where people are from.
People who missed the bus home after the clubs closed may have no choice but to head to the sauna. They may eventually manage their expectations and settle for something else. Some people will couple or throuple up very quickly and disappear into a cabin.
