What would a world
without saunas and cruising parks and clubs be for gay men? I don't
know, but I sure wouldn't want to live there.
I think it's easy
to point the accusing finger at these places and pronounce them the
root of all evil in the gay community. Just as straight people point
their fingers at all Queers and proclaim us the cause of moral degradation.
It's my believe
that saunas, cruising parks and clubs are part of gay culture. We meet
there, we have sex there, we fall in love there, we get our hearts broken
there, we get infected there... The problem is not the avenue, the problem
is always the people who use them.
It seems like an
easy answer to say that without these places relationships will last
forever. And lovers will never be unfaithful. Everyday we would wake
up with the same wonderful man in my arms, and so on, and so forth.
And pigs would fly...

TRUE
or FALSE
If this is true:
"....The problem
(refer to sauna) is not the avenue, the problem is always the people
who use them. It seems like an easy answer to say that without these
places
relationships will last forever. ..."
Then logically this
might also be true:
"Hey dear,
people are all having a good time there, it happen so normal. People
there also don't mind and they also have their own relationship, why
you mind so much?"
Hence the problem
is not the people who use them too (since they already using, problem
is forever problem, then no problem, let it be), instead, the problem
is new people will just learn from other people with grand reason.

If
I feel like camping it out I'll do it.
If I feel like camping
it out I'll do it. I take my hats/bra/garter belt (whatever) off to
those who stands up to be counted.
At the end of the
day, the general public has a problem with my sexuality and whatever
evils that entails from being gay in their minds eyes. Whether I conform
to their moral standard as a gay man or otherwise, it makes no difference.
My existence as a gay man challenges their belief system of God - Man
- Woman - Child - Family - Country.
