What/Where Was Raunchiest Place & Time In History?

Did you ever go? Can you describe it in detail for those of us who didn't go?

First visit was in 1978 I was just a year out of college ,and starting to get into Leather in a big way.The Mineshaft was in the meatpacking district on little West 12th off of Jane.(when there was still a lot of meatpacking before gentrification of the area)

You entered at street level and climbed the stairs for review by the doorman if you passed muster you paid and were granted membership.(I must have impressed the hell out of somebody that night because when I was leaving the doorman gave me a "C" card,granting me free entry and no wait in line as long as they were open for business)

You entered a large room where there were a couple pool tables ,the bar and the clothes check.I usually just checked my shirt and jacket,always keeping chaps and boots and a vest on(I liked the way a filthy junk stuffed yellow jock looked hanging out of my levis under tight chaps)

You could smell and feel raw sex almost pulsating when you walked in,hell the first night I was there saw two men check their

jackets and looked both had decent uncut dicks but their foreskins were hooked together by a pair of tit clamps. guess it was a good way to keep track of each other.

From the big room you could wander through a passage way in to a large playarea, there were a number of slings, rows of glory holes at all levels, some semi private corners, it was a huge area dimly lit just reeking of sweat and cum and leather.Pretty sure there were shackles on some walls and a form of stockade on this level.

Then down the stairs to the first level,pig fucking heaven.a warren of fetish areas,truck cabs and the most notorious area the PISS area(I have always flagged yellow so it was like finding nirvana) the first night there I walked over to one of the big tubs to piss and there laying was a man I knew in Houston who while at home always passed himself off as a total top I looked at him and he shouted at me to "PISS in my fucking face I know you've wanted too" I did

The whole attitude of the place was so magic,hyper masculine but at the same time kind and good,I saw lots of really fucked up men helped out by total strangers,the management and staff never intrusive but always around if there was a pig in trouble(usually as a result of too many chems)

Through the years I went to a number of "April Showers" parties these were huge Piss parities on the roof of the mineshaft,have not been to larger or more intense PISS parties since.

I traveled to new York three or four times a year and spent a couple nights at the Mineshaft every visit.it really is hard to describe to anyone that never visited,like the first time you danced at "THE SAINT" there was an intensity I have not experienced anyplace else ever

cannot edit my previous post. about the "C" card probably earned it by sucking the right dick that night,but I was under 25,fairly well built,more than adequate cock,wore my leather well,kinky as hell with a filthy fucking mouth............

Thermos Night Sauna in Amsterdam. 90s. After a row with my -then- BF I tore off to Adam (2 hours away) and high on poppers and booze I was a total slut. Got fucked by so many guys I can't even remember how many there were. The darkroom was so exciting with loads of naked guys feeling up each other in total darkness. This was all about cock and ass, not looks. Pitchdark fucking, no clue who those guys were. When I think about that night I still hear Björks remix pounding music in my head, which only added to the experience that night. Of course the -then- BF didn't speak to me for days when I returned. :-)

In terms of relatively modern history ... I'd like to go back and experience the heyday of the CMC Carnival and the after-hours Ringold Alley scene in San Francisco. I missed the CMC Carnival, but what little I caught of the tail end of the Ringold Alley scene tells me that at its peak it must have been WILD. I'd love to get fucked in plain view and take a load at the Folsom Street Fair in the days when there were no str8 gawkers and wild sex got applause from onlookers. I'd also love to spend a night at the Boot Camp soaking up as much piss as possible.

I remember a porn arcade near a bunch of truck stops and such on I-10 that was absolutely WILD when high winds would close the highway to big rigs; I'd love to go back and experience that again, with the intent of wangling an invitation to fulfill one of my long-time sexual fantasies - getting my ass plowed and bred by a horny trucker in his sleeper cab. (One of the great things about the wind storm times was the truckstops were packed, so most of the truckers who went out looking to get off didn't shower first - and a ripe, sweaty, horny trucker is EXACTLY what I'd want.)

As for further back in history - a logging camp bunkhouse during the timber rush in the Pacific Northwest and a Viking longboat at sea, both for a good ole gang fuck.

First visit was in 1978 I was just a year out of college ,and starting to get into Leather in a big way.The Mineshaft was in the meatpacking district on little West 12th off of Jane.(when there was still a lot of meatpacking before gentrification of the area)

 

 

I used to visit NYC around that time. One night I was desperately trying to find The Minshaft but could never find it. In the process I ran into the club "Glory Hole". It was $10 membership and then another $10 to get in. It was a maze full of partitions and gloryholes but I remember there being lots of light. One could clearly see a guy getting fucked or sucking a cock. I was in my early 20's then and it ended up being a bit too much for me so I didn't stay too long.

 

The memories of sex in NYC in the 1970's were triggered by last night's episode of SNL. (April 2, 2016). One of the skits is staged in an elegant restaurant that used to be a sexclub in the 1970's. The skit shows a gloryhole that was supposedly kept from the old sexclub in the Meatpacking area of NYC (Mineshaft?). It was funny, especially to us who are familiar with sex in those days.

 

My first encounter with men was in the West Side YMCA (5 W 63rd St) in one of my visits to NYC in the late 70's. Without knowing what to expect my first time at the YMCA was an amazing experience from the sex point of view. The building had 10-12 floors and the top 3 floors were being rented by the day, let's say floors 10,11,12. The rooms were small and sort of dirty and smelly, but I didn't mind. The first time I stayed at the West Side YMCA I just watched and didn't have the guts to do anything. Mostly young guys because the YMCA was kind of a Hostel for cheap accommodation for young guys visiting NYC. The experience was an eye-opener to my view that I had of sexuality and freedom. There was a slutty bottom staying right across the hall and I would hear how guys would be coming into his room all night. This whole experience became the foundations of a recurring dream I have of a certain place for sex, and it is clearly the YMCA in NYC in the 1970's.

 

I went many times to NYC and I always stayed at the YMCA, but now I knew what to expect and couldn't wait to get there. Each floor had a bathroom where guys would hang around shaving, showering. But it was fun to know that many of the young men were also new to the scene. And some were even a bit homophobic. At night things would change and the sexual tension would rise. Guys walking around in all the men's floors. By my second visit I had already been fucked in a visit to a sauna in Toronto. So this time I would leave the door of my room open and had many guys come in and have sex.

 

I would also visit the bar Eagle NYC which had a back room and was a lot of fun. Many times I would meet guys there and go to their apartments nearby. It was so much fun.

 

Anyone has any experiences in the YMCA in the late 1970's?
