Oh …. And maybe take your vacation in Ptown instead of JH …..

To the op i am really sorry that you had to put up with that I think It depends on where you are. … But not based on location like pool or churches etc … but location based on country/ state/ city in Boston there are actually a lot of churches where gay lesbian couples can show affection (hold hands … kiss, etc) in addition to holding hands walking down the street Of course … even in Boston you will run into the hateful nut job… and I fear that as the MAGA movement spreads there will be fewer safe places for us But I hope that all you couples out there keep showing a few PDAs …. Unfortunately it is still a revolutionary act

Oh …. And being the early 70s …. A lot of guys had long hair …. Do they had to wear swim caps …. Seeing a guy …. Totally naked …. But wearing a swim caps- was at times rather conical (especially if in protest they wore their mothers with flowers on it) - so that helped defuse the sexual energy of a bunch of teenage boys

So I am old enough that we had Junior High (starting at 7th grade) and Senior High I don’t remember taking showers after regular gym class in Jr H …. But we did have swim class for about 4 weeks or so in the winter …. And (this was back in the 60’s) and so swim class for boys was in the nude… and we had to take a shower before and after swim… and it was a big gang shower HS also had a gang shower… and there I do know we had to shower after every class… and Swim again for about 4 weeks in the winter) was nude - where we had to shower before and after) and the school provided towels … but you didn’t get your towel until you were leaving the shower, so you had to strip at your locker … then walk totally naked to the gang shower… (looking back now I would live to have been the towel boy … who was always some jock in their senior year…. Not sure how they got selected for the job) - But because we were naked a lot around each other it just got to be normal - no one tried to “cover up” between their locker and the shower because there was nothing to hide ….we had all seen everything (and NO ONE has a big dick in a cold pool in Wisconsin in the winter) (we had to shower …. And then walk down an unheated hall and stand there shivering wet and cold- while we waited for the coach to unlock the door to the pool) So there was no showing off… and no real teasing…. At least that I remember…. And there was one kid in my class …. Short well built jock … I think on the wrestling team) who looked like he didn’t hit puberty until 10th or 11th grade (no pubic hair with little cock and balls) but as he was one of the jocks… no one teased him at all Fortunately i had no clue that i might be gay … so I didn’t do any real “looking” … but then again maybe that was a good as I never got a boner in the Locker room A lot of people now of course think that this is creepy… or “banned word” ….but it was just “normal” for us … and now when I am in a locker room … I used to work at a university.. and so would used the campus gym …. And I felt really bad when I would see these really super fit 20 year old jocks changing under their towel … I feel bad that they are soooooo nervous and embarrassed about their body …. Bring raised with gang showers and nude swimming- If anything now when I am in a locker room I am more embarrassed about the other guys seeing my flabby stomach than someone seeing my cock

@GuelphGuy72 …. So Toronto ONLY has three …. Plus the club? Boston should be so lucky …. Its last bathhouse closed over 20 years ago…. And we have very few bars left ….and none of them have a back room I hope you do your bit to help keep them open…… sounds like three more reasons to come visit Toronto… spend some of my American dollars to help apologize for Trump

Well back in the day (as in late 70s / early 80’s ….. I think that’s how most of us met i have good friends who met at a party… went to the hotel and tricked…. And they have been together ever since (and that was about 45 or so years ago) … and my neighbors down the street (together over 30 years) met at a bar and for me I met almost all of my bfs at a bar …. Or the dirty movie theater (I really miss that place) I met my last bf on bbrt (or maybe recon … I can’t remember) I was in London on vacation for a few days … he came to my hotel room … sex was AMAZING…. But at one point I asked him what time he needed to leave to catch the train home … and he s like “well, would it be ok if I spent the night?” … I answered him by rolling him over and giving him a really hard fuck next morning he asks “so, ah, how long are you in town for?” Was only there one more night… and he spent it in my bed we started texting - then skypeing - then he came over to visit….for a week…. Awhile later we met in Paris for a week - each time the sex was amazing… as was the personal connection Ok - so I am not with any of them anymore… different reasons for each one (some lasted a few weeks - a few months- a couple for a few years)…. But I am a firm believer in sex being the first date …. Best way to see if you actually can connect I have been on a few “first dates” before sex …. They were all terrible and didn’t lead to anything
