Gay sex clubs in boston
Gay Boston
-------------------------------------
When people from this metropolis say you where they're from, you're likely to perceive people name the South End, Back Bay or any of the dozens of other enclaves as their home. This is a city of sharply defined neighborhoods. Others, not born here, come from all across America and the world, to reside across the river in Cambridge, home to Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; or to attend one of another 52 institutions of higher education in Metropolitan Boston.
If you're thinking people are proud of the city's almost 400-year history, you're right. Most visitors, even those here for just a afternoon or two, fit into their itinerary at least one of the sights they heard about in history class, such as the Old North Church. (Remember the "one if by land, two if by sea" lanterns warning of the direction from which the British were coming?)
Sure, it's superb to go shopping in historic Faneuil Hall or follow guides in powdered wigs around the Paul Revere House. But Boston is also a cutting-edge city, thanks in part to all those universities and the large trainee populat
In the late 1970s and early ‘80s, Paul M. would often fill himself with liquid courage before he slipped through the doors of Club LaGrange, a gay bathhouse that occupied a worn but majestic brownstone in a gritty slice of downtown Boston.
Up a flight of stairs, he’d approach the counter, supply his name and some cash, before proceeding to a room or locker, where he’d stow his clothes and don a towel. Then, for the darkness, he was anonymous and free to explore the showers, saunas and confidential rooms of the club—each space a new opportunity to cruise for sex.
“I was young, horny and in the closet,” says Paul, now 82 years old; the bathhouses—outside the gaze of the more universal gay bars—filled a need for him.
Boston never had a legendary gay bathhouse scene like those in New York or San Francisco—partly due to a hangover of “Puritan prudishness” that augured a tamer scene overall, according to historians. Boston’s lgbtq+ community, some of its own members admit, was not as “wild” or uninhibited as those in other big American cities.

Valentine’s Day is coming up and we all know it as a holiday for romance. But it can also be one for lust. Call us Cupid-haters, but it can get sick-to-your-stomach saccharine on Valentine’s Day. So, to celebrate lust this V-Day, we created a list of the best gay bathhouses in the United States.
Steamworks
Berkeley, California
Just across the San Francisco Bay, about 11 miles away from the now closed infamous Burst Buddies, you’ll find the authentic location of the legendary bathhouse chain called Steamworks. They’ve got branches in other cities too, like Chicago. Steamworks is a super chill spot where the gay community can gather and have a great time. It’s all about being open-minded and sex-positive here, with cool stuff like health-focused programs for HIV and STD testing. Their rooms got a makeover back in 2016, so you can look forward to some sweet amenities like beds, TVs, phone chargers, and even slings! It’s a place where everyone can feel safe and free to be themselves.
Pro tip: Add Steamworks to your weekly worship schedule for their “Sunday Service.”
