What a night!

I went on a mon night around 12am and the place had a nice crowd of guys and all different races. I sucked off about 8 guys in a four hour time span! It was a great night!!

Even a "hetro" can ( respectively) walk through!

To be completely honest, I was truly impressed by Steamworks. It definitely turned the preconceived thoughts attached to what a bathhouse is and the conservative Merriam-Webster definition upside-down, excluding the fact that there really are only nude men and the existence of baths. Now with that said, if you're similar to my mother pondering, "What is a bathhouse? I didn't know there is still such a place. I thought that was what cities had in the old days. You can go to one to take a bath and freshen up, or am I wrong?," then just pass up this review and place all together. This isn't ancient Rome! (Although I bet all the same activities went on back then too...) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now for the *DISCLAIMER* This review contains mature content that might not be suitable for all audiences and is of an adult nature. This review may also contain adult language and themes that are not intended for children. (In addition it is in this Gaycities reviewers own words and does not reflect any other opinions.) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you're over 18, liberal-minded and understand that which is stated above, scroll down at your own free will... V V V ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All my friends know this isn't my "type" of venue so why was I here you ask?? Well tonight I helped myself out by reciving a free, with out going to my medical doctor (or having any medical records stored on me). Read on! And I must admit that I greatly respect Steamworks and give them A TON of credit for allowing testing on their premises. They house a different STD organization one day a week to do testing. After all, we're aware that many bathhouses took the blame for the AIDS crisis/paranoia back in the late '80s, but let me say that times have changed tons since. Ok I'm stepping off my soap box...and on to the interior description. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You would not believe what's behind that bare (no pun intended) loft-looking facade. Seriously, someone could hideout and live there secretly (heck, it would be the perfect hideout for Bin Laden if he were wise). Three Stories of Steamworks = Over 300 hook-up rooms, plenty of showers, saunas & jacuzzis, literally mazes of glory holes, one work-out gym, countless TVs projecting porn, endless mirrors, social lounges with fireplaces...all of this under techno/dance music and nauseating specialty lights. I kid you not that every corner has available condoms and lube. They take prevention and cleanliness seriously. Also all sub-groups of the gay community are welcome (daddies, leathers, bears, cubs [I'm not referring to the ones from neighboring Wrigley], twinks, jocks, and any others I failed to mention). Everyone is very friendly and accepting (whether they want to get in your pants or not). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As long as you can withstand the smell of bleach and rubber, and you can promise me to practice safely, explore your kinky horizons to the extreme by checking out Steamworks. Refer to their website for prices, hours (24/7, 256 days of the year) and further information. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Please check webisite for dates also* *STD testing for Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and Syphilis is only offered on Tuesdays between 4 pm and 7 pm. All the other weekdays offer solely HIV rapid, oral swab testing. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
