Ha ha yes I did of course mean Alcazar - mind you I have also been in those very showers in Alcatraz that you mentioned !!! But that's a whole other story for another day ! :-)
And by the way speaking of being GAY ( in the modern sense ) only you two poofs could talk about a gay sex sauna and end up talking about how the shows are and are there dancing girls with lots of lights and glitter and pink ponies everywhere etc etc ( I'm paraphrasing of course :) - it's a gay SEX sauna - if you want glitter and west end productions GO to Alcarzar and leave our SEX saunas alone damn you :-) !! God what am I going to with the pair of you, here we have "Her majesty the Queen" and then there's you two other Queens wanting no doubt to strip out the sex cabins and the dark rooms to make way for a bigger stage and more lights and LOTS more glitter !! :-) - god spare us, I just don't know anymore :-(((( lol
well we know scottish-guy is past his prime in the sex department, but I'm still young and virile (and have just booked my trip for next June) :party
I was never IN my prime in the sex dept - I was always rubbish at it :crybaby:
wow...unbelievable...actual people living in Thailand and have never visited one of the 7th wonders of the world....Babylon sauna...one of the best gay sauna complexes in the world...pool..2 bars..2 resTaurants..hotel....private garden bungalows..a well equipped gym...large clean cruise area and "rest"cabins...and lotsa free sex...men of all shapes and sizes....whats there not to like....many a long weekend have I spent there...only venturing out at night to dine at telephone bar..and catch a show at best boys bkk......
Yes the best 2 saunas i've been to are Babylon and Thermos in Amsterdam
I've never been to Babylon or any gay sauna anywhere. I would like to give it a try but am not sure what to expect or how to behave. I'm not really a shy person but do find the whole gay sauna idea a bit daunting. Any tips on gay sauna etiquette in Thailand?
Liam as I'd mentioned to Scots Babylon would be a good sauna to go for a first trip as its not perhaps what you are expecting, yes there's the sex element to one area of it if you chose to dander down that way but aside from that there's a nice relaxed bar area where you can just sit and relax and have a drink in your towel ( and likewise everyone else in their towels too by the way) and you can go into the steam rooms, jacuzzi etc and genuinely chill out or hit the gym etc so it's not all about sex- then ( and to answer your question I guess) just have a wander around the rest of the place, in the "sexy" part you'll see quite a few small cubicles with sliding lockable doors with like a light / dimmer switch and a padded raised seating / lying down area inside suitable for short time fun ( just I find I wish they would make then a bit bigger !) and a tissue dispenser on the wall ( which comes in handy as i find its so bloody warm in babylon the sweats dripping off me before i even THINK about the sex !
So then just have a wee dander about ( again all in your towel like everyone else so no worries there) and basically as you walk around ( and everyone else is doing the same - lots!) if and when you see someone you like just like just give them a wee smile, maybe some eye contact and with a subtle nod of the towards the cubicle if they're interested then hey oh in your both go, youll also see guys standing in front of the cubicle doors waiting for passers by to give them a smile as a) it means they've got a cubicle when they need it and b) it saves you getting knackered walking round and round in circles all night ( as can happen sometimes :-) And remember if you do go in somewhere to lock the door when you're both in ( unless you're a bit if an exhibitionist and then you won't have to I guess and you'll have a audience if that's your thing lol) and have fun at your own pace and I know you've said you're not shy so that's good but just remember basically everyone is there for exactly the same thing as you so you don't need to worry about beating about the bush to much and just go for it, and should someone who you don't wish to have fun with follows you a bit of runs your leg or something it's quite ok just to either walk on our ignore then ( rude I think personally) or just smile and say a polite no thanks.
Needless to say condoms should be a must always with no exceptions - especially in a sauna perhaps ! And when you pay in you'll be given two condoms and a sachet of lube, I inevitably lose mine within minutes of arrival from assing about wrapping my towel round me awkwardly but a wee tip is to fold the top edge of your towel over double, just about an inch and basically "wrap" the condoms and lube into the fold of the towel as that seems a safer bet for keeping them longer until you need them.
So that's it in a nut shell, there's no hard and fast rules and sure absolutely your first and second time if feels a bit strange / risqu├й etc but after a while you won't even think twice and will just relax into having lots of good dirty fun and meeting and chatting with some nice guys I bet, hope this helped, have fun :-)
* oh I should just add just for clarity that not all saunas are as nice, clean, relaxed as the likes of Babylon and may not have the same facilities and whereas most have some form of steam room and cubicles etc some ( in the centre of Bkk perhaps ) ARE just intended as more or less basic sex joints - but the same basic "smile and a nods and wink" system is the same worldwide I find.
Well explained NIrish. Thanks. Think I'll have to have a look next time I'm in BKK. :ow:
Looked on the Babylon web site for a Foam Party in early February??
But no Events are listed.
Anyone know the schedule??
My friend from the Philippines is SHY but I think this is a event he would remember for years!!!
Thanks!!

Who needs TWO towels...
:hello2:
I have visited some nice saunas in Europe, but many, like the one is Zurich, allow (actually approve) prostitutes in the facility who expect payment. IF I want prostitutes for pay, I will just go to a massage place. As to whether or not is just a bunch of fat, sweaty old farangs, it really depends on when you go. If you go during the day mon-fri, it's mostly farangs. Any asians present tend to be visiting from other asian countries. The Thai boys show up after work or on the weekends.
It's still a bargain. Dirty, dark, small saunas in the US charge four times as much.
