I joined this site to look at nude pics of Froylan Gutierrez and stumbled upon this thread. Made me chuckle.
I had my first real gay interaction in the steam room of the now closed location opposite Macy's on 34th street
That was over 15 years ago. Since then i have worked out at virtually every location in Manhattan and North Jersey as well as multiple locations of Equinox and YMCA. The lure of a quick fix after workout simply could not be resisted. Especially since i was still in the closet and this was way too easy for my younger and more attractive self. On hindsight, this was a huge mistake. I never cared for or developed any real gay relationships - both inside and outside the clubs. NYSC was so much fun back then. Wall street ( now closed ) and 23rd and 8th ( now very subdued) were the places to go. Equinox at Columbus circle ( the one that got sued ) was also happening. The story with all of them is pretty much the same. If you are a young hot guy with even the slightest of musculature and willingness to put out, you should have no problem getting action. Last few years i was just a spectator mostly. Sometimes served as a lookout and always made sure that i was not the offending 'old troll'. Agree with above posters that 36 & Madison has the most action these days. If you are in north jersey, Hoboken has the best looking dudes. If you are into aesthetics the flagship at Astor place (huge multi-level layout, DJ,free massage chairs,etc..) and the penthouse at Printing House location are the best. Swimmers would possibly like the old Bally location in HK which is now a NYSC premium location - mood lighting in the showers and what not. and no, i was never good enough for David Barton.. keep the stories coming..
