Joy Gift Shop

Shop L56 Peninsula Centre
Tsim Sha Tsui East
Kowloon
Hong Kong

Tel: 2366 4822
Web: http://www.joygiftshop.com.hk

Hint No. 1 :  Look for the HSBC Branch in Peninsula Centre on the Ground Floor, and take the escalator to the Basement from there.  On reaching the Basement, turn Right and walk)

Hint No. 2 :  They have shops in other locations around town.  Check their website.

Tucked away in the basement of Peninsula Centre in Tsim Sha Tsui East, is this sex shop. Actually, it's one of 2 on that floor - the other is at the other end (how Freudian.....).

It may be necessary to wander around a bit in the basement.  Most of it appears to be taken up by (legal) majong parlours. The shop is recognizable by the Japanese-dominated advertising of semi-life-size female dolls with all the appropriate orifices and the labia pink curtains that serve as the doorway.

Before going any further, FuelMix can't resist quoting the blurb from their website:

"The Joy Gift Shop chain stores has become the talk of the town in Hong Kong and is a must for the beautiful people. We have injected a new respectability into the sex shop business so that it is no longer frowned on or considered sleazy locally. Tasteful decoration, comfortable spaciousness, variety, openness and surprisingly competitive prices contributed to our success. And every store manned by our Girl Jennys has brought pleasant smiles to our customers."

It's primarily a hetero adult store.  The clue is in the cheap-looking and over-priced dildos.  But for the fag there is a range of "sexy" underwear and thongs and for the serious fag...........

They stock the genuine Fleshlight, made in the USA!!!  It comes in a big metal tin can with your choice of mouth, ass or pussy.  Currently priced at HK$380.00.  That is one big heavy mutthafukka, even if it is built to look like an oversized "flashlight".

In order to touch the Fleshlight, you'll need the female shop assistant.  That's the rule so go ahead don't be shy.  She's kinda pushy in a polite sort of way and was helpful in answering questions about how to clean that thing after using it. Make sure to feel  the interesting texture of the latex inner sleeve of the Fleshlight.

Tip:  She claimed to be able to offer a discount on the price.  FuelMix suggests taking a buddy or 2 or 3 and then bargain for a group discount on a bulk purchase of Fleshlights.

Which gave FuelMix an idea............would there be any interest here in Very Rich Megacity if a group of guys got together regularly for fun with their Fleshlights...........????

From a reader who dropped in on 27 December 2010, a Public Holiday here in Very Rich Megacity:

Hello mate,
 
I literally stumbled across your blog when I searched for gay saunas in Hong Kong. I thought it was very good - chatty and up to date. I have read many of the entries and have found them enormously useful. So thank you.

I get to Hong Kong twice a year for a fortnight at a time and always intrigued to check out the local scene. I was very impressed by Towel Club but as I have gathered it is now closed. Shame. So having read about your glowing experience at Alexander, I thought I would give it a go.

Alexander, as per your instruction, was very easy to find. Having paid the $130 entrance fee, I quickly found my locker. It was certainly busy when I arrived at 16:00 on the bank holiday Monday. I stripped down to my sexy thong and had a good look around. I thought it was a bit too dark - the whole place needs a lot more sympathetic lighting. The clientele was almost exclusively chinks - apart from one friendly Pakistani gentleman. All suits me find as there aren't too many in Nanny Kingdom where I live.

Then the manager told me I had to take off my thong and wear a towel. I was not too happy about that - I love my thongs and I think I look pretty sexy in them. A lot of other guys would look sexy in a nice pair of briefs or bikinis too. I was quite annoyed having to take them off. So, in my protestation, I decided to walk around naked.

Either I had 'fresh meat' tattooed on my forehead, or because of my 5'11" 40" chest  smooth muscled chink frame, or being naked -  wherever I went there were wondering hands.  People seemed happy to grope or pinch, but never a smile or a node. It must be the attitude of the local chinks you were referring too. It's just slightly on the rude side - I am laid back and never mind a knowing squeeze - but being mobbed is another matter.

There were a small handful of guys with pert pecs and gym toned physique, a fair few average bods and some of those Fuglies you were referring to. I managed to have a pretty good time - fucked a muscle guy for a good half an hour, then played with a few others. So I left the place with a nice grin on my face.

Goodness, that sounded like a rambling message. I hope you find the above interesting and feel free to publish it in your blog. Would be happy to send you a self pic too if you are interested - let me know. 

FuelMix says:  Glad you left the place with a grin on your face.  Local attitude takes some getting used to. Unfortuately some chinks try really hard to copy the attitude they received in the West.  A clear case of doing unto others what they hated having done unto them.

As far as your thong is concerned, technically the management should not have bothered, because you were for all practical purposes, undressed.  But it's their establishment and they make "the rules". If you've got an underwear or thong fetish, you might want to try Chaps in North Point and check out their website.  They have Theme Nites which definitely include underwear nites.  Check out FuelMix's review of Chaps on this blog.


Since you claim to be a muscular chink, also drop into Double Sauna.  They're open 24 hours are in the same neighbourhood as Alexander.  Other readers have given their impressions of Double and you are welcome to do the same.

From a reader:


Hiya


Wow.....your reviews of Galaxy sauna are totally accurate - right down to the sole filthy urinal and the spit flooded showers.  The place is decrepit and grubby but it was really packed with GAMs of all ages and body types.  As you pointed out some can be pretty aggressive and many seem to be married guys. Absolutely agree with your observations on Fuglies.  It's obviously a very popular place although I would not describe the customers as "hot".  It's friendly enough but the guys were not my type.  Did notice a number of guys who were also regulars at ABC Sauna across the street.


FuelMix says: Yeah, Galaxy is a law unto itself. It's got a winning - if incredibly grubby - formula and it just sucks the customers in.  It is the largest sauna in Tsim Sha Tsui and probably the most successful.  Why they are not open 24 hours is kinda baffling.

Gay Sauna Etiquette 8

What Do You Think About The Jacuzzi or Hot Tub In a Gay Sauna? Is It OK To Have Action There?

Yeah, it's OK to have action in there and a lot of guys do. So how does a fag get in the mix?

• Shower first - with soap.  You ARE responsible for your personal hygiene in every nook and orifice.
• It's polite to check out the number of people already in the hot tub.  If it's full, what the hell are you doing getting in?  It boggles FuelMix's pretty head to see utterly stupid fags of all ages descending into the tub when every seat is taken.  And they stand there right in the middle of the tub like pilgrims in the Ganges.  Wait until a spot becomes available, idiot.
  
• What these stupid fags don't realize is that there is considerable eye contact and footsie playing in the hot tub.  If a fag is gonna stand there right in the middle,  just how popular does he think he's gonna be?  Unless he's utterly gorgeous and wanted by everyone, he's not gonna get smiles.
• If the fag gets a seat in the hot tub, he should not assume that it's OK to start pawing the guys next to him.  Wait for eye contact, a smile, or better still, let the other guy start pawing. Fags are in the hot tub for different reasons: some just arrived in the gay sauna and want to soak, some want  quiet time, some just finished fucking around and are resting, some are migratory fags - they arrive, dip n' go, some are predatory fags lying there half submerged like crocodiles (they can be really persistent), some get their kicks only playing with guys in the hot tub.  In other words, the hot tub is a fuckin' microcosm of society.

Oh yeah......if a fag needs to shit, get out of the hot tub.  Once in a white country, FuelMix recalls seeing a rejected fag leave a floating token of appreciation in the hot tub.  He figured that if he wasn't going to get action in the tub, neither should anyone else.

So Does FuelMix Like Hot Tubs ?

No actually, he doesn't.

FuelMix absolutely avoids them all over the world.  Why is that?  Well.....once in a gay sauna (in a white country.......*sigh*) when the hot tub was full of apparently "hot" white men,  FuelMix just dipped his ankles into the hot tub..........and a couple of days later, ended up with the most painful skin rash called Folliclitis.  Effectively, bacteria in the hot tub got into the skin via the hair follicles in his ankles.  It was ghastly, it was awful, it was agonizing.  Try going into the office when you can't wear socks...........and when you do put them on, all you do is scream in pain.

That heartwarming lesson completely turned FuelMix off from entering a communal hot tub in a gay sauna, in a hotel - or anywhere else for that matter.

It also contributed to FuelMix's view of the health and hygiene of whites in their native habitat, which (after additional observations like what rotting Meth Mouth in a white guy actually looks like),  led to FuelMix sexually shunning whites worldwide thereafter.  But then as you people would know, "it's a preference".

That's right fags........great oaks of resistance grow from itchy skin lesions on raw and inflamed ankles. Sadly, many chink fags are emulating white fag lifestyle choices  It doesn't bode well.  It really doesn't.

Personally, FuelMix thinks that hot tubs should be removed from gay saunas and cautions fags about entering them.

It's your body.

Hyundai Sauna

From a reader in Seoul, reporting on the gay sauna scene:

Getting There

• From Hamilton Hotel, cross the street and walk straight down the hill and take the first left turn. 
• Hyundai is half a block down this lane, on the right side. 
• The sign is in Korean only, but look for the 2nd sauna sign (a bowl shaped symbol with three fingers of steam rising), not the first sauna sign which is another motel.

Facilities 

The action is all in the 2 upstairs sleeping areas, which are basically 2 large rooms with some blankets on the floor. Since no lube or condoms are provided, you must bring your own, or be prepared to participate in the unprotected action that seems to go on just about all the time.

The shower and locker area is drafty and cold in the winter, and not clean. The shower floor is moldy, and the plunge pools look disgusting. There is a dry sauna as well, if you feel the need.


Verdict

This is a very old and dirty sauna. It has been there for many years, and was one  the first in town where foreigners could hang. Over the years, it has not been improved or maintained in any way.

As the area it is in has changed its make-up, the clientele has migrated to older locals and (older) tourists. Friday and Saturday overnights used to be packed, but since newer more modern (and clean) places have popped up, this old stand-by has continued in decline.

Overall this place is best avoided unless you are into taking risks with your health.

Papa Don't Preach

FuelMix had to carefully read the report in the Telegraph dated 15 December 2010, entitled Switzerland considers repealing incest laws.

Yep, that's what it said.  A draft law proposes de-criminalising sex between consenting family members.  Sponsors of the bill take the view that adequate legal safeguards already exist against abuse and paedophilia.  Besides, there were only 3 cases of (presumably non-consensual) incest since 1984.

FuelMix really doesn't know what to think.  Given Switzerland's historical insularity and general xenophobia, consensual incest for them seems almost logical.  But it raises all sorts of other social, medical and social implications.

Just thinking about it, some random thoughts:

• It complicates giving kids the Facts Of Life Talk;
• How does a parent come out and propose the scenario to their legal-aged offspring?
• How does a legal-aged offspring raise the prospect with their parent?
• We've all heard about sibling rivalry.  What about parental rivalry for the sexual affections of the offspring?
• What about pregnancy? Would that be an offence?  Would abortion be automatic?
• What about transmission of STDs?  Would that be an offence?  Would the trial be open to the public?

In future, IF this bill becomes law, when a Swiss guy in a fag bar says he has a close relationship with his family, ASK exactly what that means.  It sounds creepy.

Equus

Submitted by a regular reader in Seoul, South Korea who says that the gay scene there is really taking off.  As part of the database of mens gay saunas in Seoul, this post is about  Equus, a new gay Playspace that is open 24 /7.

Subway No.6 Itaewon Station Exit No.3
Telephone:  02-793-6227
Cost: 10,000 Won overnight /5,000 during the day 
Note:  Open 24 hours


Getting There

• Go straight from Exit No.3, about 2 city blocks past the Fire Station and Police Station. 
• It is on the 3rd floor of building right before the tall Chiel building.
• Note that in Seoul, most people navigate by using urban landmarks.  There does not appear to be a sequential street numbering system.

Facilities & Comment

This is a relatively new location for this "Jimjilbang" (sleeping room). The old location was down the block and very, very small. The old location was either empty, or so full that there was nowhere to play. The new location has plenty of play spaces, and room to spread out.

Weekend overnights are the most crowded, but more attitude at these times. Late mornings on the weekends tend to be the best time to play, as the posers are gone. 

Weekday afternoons very quiet, but evenings after about 9pm can be fun. Most action happens in the bunks. The more shy types will take you to a room to play. Others enjoy the exhibition, as well as occaisional group play. 

Crowd is 80% local, and 20 % foreigner. Condoms and lube supplied and in use for the majority of the players. 

Place is well kept, and since it is new, in good shape. There is a gang shower, as well as 2 private showers near the lockers. The [ gay ] scene in Seoul is growing fast, and inhibitions have fallen away over the last few years.

The End Of Camp ?

An article in the Guardian dated 30 November 2010 entitled The end of gay men being camp observes the apparent demise of the camp gay man as "straight-acting" gay men gain the ascendancy.

The author also states as FuelMix did sometime ago in this blog, that the term "straight-acting" itself implies a fake. Sort of like "spray-on-butch" which one of the commenters of the above article used. (FuelMix thinks that one's pretty good).  But the author goes onto say that the frequent use of "straight-acting" is part of the psyche of gay men, which collectively has a deep rooted fascination with the masculine straight man.  Interesting point particularly when one looks at gay erotic art of the 1940s and 1950s or going further back, the adoration and glorification of the naked Olympian athletes.

But is "straight-acting" the right label or concept to replace camp?  The author says:


"And what if the pressure to be "straight-acting" gradually squeezes out camp behaviour? Will we have lost something important? Perhaps we should be pleased to see it go, an unnecessary relic of a time when gay men risked prosecution and when a lisp and a limp wrist were a relatively safe way of communicating your sexuality to other men. Or maybe it would be a sell-out, allowing ourselves to be railroaded into behaving like straight men – and, what is more, the kind of straight men who are most likely to give us homophobic abuse or a beating.

Perhaps gay men should view "camp" in the same way as we view a minority language or regional accent, something to nurture and encourage, even if we don't speak that way ourselves."

But here's FuelMix's question: Is "Straight-acting" really the opposite of camp? Or is it really the opposite of "effeminate"?  Have gay men got it wrong?  And how does one define "camp" in contrast to "effeminate"? And what about those Muscle Marys who appear to be both camp and effeminate? Gay men need to re-visit Susan Sontag's seminal work, Notes On Camp.

The last point about camp being a minority language is also interesting. "Camp" indeed has its own patois, known as Polari.  This "language" was initially spoken as slang by those working  in the English theatrical world in the 19th and early 20th Century, before being adopted by English gays fairly quickly as a means of identifying and communicating with each other when gay sex was illegal.

Polari appears to be a mish-mash of  Gypsy, some kind of bastardized Italian, English, a sort of Yiddish and other bits and pieces such as maritime slang. Researchers at Cambridge University listed Polari as one of the languages headed for extinction. Polari slang is on a free website by the World Oral Literature Project.  Some Polari words can also be found on http://www.polari.org.uk/ 

Fags will instantly realize that bits of Polari are now in mainstream fag patois.

Memo to Fags 9

To: Fags
From: FuelMix

There's no accounting for the creativity and inadvertent stupidity of supposedly horny fags advertising on Craigslist.  This gem is taken from the page for Very Rich Megacity spotted today:

"i am FortySeven Five Foot Ten OneHundredSeventy LBS
I have a body of a 35 year old"

1. Where did he find the body?
2. Is he trying to dispose of it?
3. Is he into necrophilia?
4. If he's describing himself, just what is the accepted definition of a body of a 35 year old?
5. How did he land on that figure?
6. What makes him think that others will agree that he has a body of a 35 year old?
7. How do we know he's actually 47?

Twit.

Memo To Fags 8

To: White Troll Fags
From:  FuelMix

Whilst it is always encouraged to show good manners to an older white fag, the line is drawn when the white troll enters a gay bar, finds a booth, unzips and starts playing with his cock as a means of attracting attention from younger fags.

You'll get the attention alright.  But it will probably be derision.

Gay Sauna Etiquette 7

What's The Deal About Exhibitionism In A Gay Sauna?

It sometimes comes as a shock to newbie fags when they witness the exhibitionism that goes on in a gay sauna.  Some get un-nerved and lapse into performance anxiety.  Others claim to have a "stiff" rule that they don't do it in public coz they're picky and discreet.

Yada, yada.....whatever.

Listen up fags, exhibitionism is an integral part of fag culture and history.  Think about body conscious clothing, hanky codes, discretely fondling one's crotch in public when making eye contact with a hot guy, sex in public toilets,  sex in parks, sex in alleyways, sex in porn theatres, sex in adult stores, go-go dancers in gay bars, male stripper nites in the clubs, crotch enhanced underwear and cockrings, gangbangs, circle jerks, gay porn.......get the point?

Yeah, the location of the gay sauna might be discreet but when you actually show up there, just how many pairs of eyes are already staring at you?  Discretion has pretty much gone out of the window - and so should your towel.

FuelMix gets totally turned off by guys who still wrap their towels around their waists while removing their underwear.  What's with that?

As pointed out in earlier segments of this series, there are certain areas of a gay sauna where being appropriately robed with a towel is basic courtesy and full frontal sex is not the best idea.  But in other areas of the premises, quite frankly, the fag won't be getting his money's worth unless he struts it.

Now for some nuance.  While many saunas in Asia now have Nude Nites (they've been going for years in the West), Asians still have a cultural resistance to exhibitionism.  Sure they'll walk around naked, but they'll cover their bush with both hands or only engage in group sex in the very darkest part of the Dark Rooms.  Even if they're fucked in a room, many will still insist that the lights be switched off.

Funnier still is after being fucked, they'll still switch off the lights before re-emerging into the public corridors.  Initially FuelMix found it quaint.  Now he just finds it annoying, turns the lights right up  and shoves the chink out. For Chrissakes, the corridors are dark anyways.......WTF??


Can I Keep The Room Door Open When I'm Playing or Alone?

Yeah of course.  You've come to be seen.  If you're alone in the room and are looking for a hot dude to join you, open the door, turn up the lights to a comfortable level, lie back, pose or whatever and let the bod speak for itself.  Remember, it's a two-way street.  The passing foot traffic is perfectly entitled to stop, window shop and even feel the goods before making a commitment.

Just don't be one of those stupid anal fags that sits in the dark, with the door open, jacking, leaving passing fags to guess what kind of shit might actually be in there.  You're wasting your time and theirs.



I've Got A Guy In The Room And The Door's Open

If you're already playing with a guy with the room door open and the lights on, then you're sending one or more of the following signals:

• Look at me !! Look at me !! Look at us !!
• Come and join us !!
• U can join us if we think you're hot !!
• Stand in the doorway and JO while you watch us !!
• U can come into the room and JO while you watch us !!
• U wanna gangbang him with me ?
• U can look but U can't touch;

Exactly which signal is correctly sent and received will be dictated by body language, a smile or a nod (if "yes u can play with us") or a "no thanks".

The above comments also apply to the Steam Room, The Dry Sauna, The Jacuzzi, The Showers, The Maze, The Dark Room, The Glory Holes, The Video Rooms.

The Golden Rule: No means No.  Always. Everywhere in the sauna. Anywhere on the planet.

The paradox of gay exhibitionism is that it is private to those doing it.

Sooner or later, the better hotels will start charging fags a royalty for the number of times their rooms, furniture, bed linens and bathrooms appear in online pics of fags' cock and body shots.  They'll justify it on the same basis as per-per-view porn in their rooms or location shot rentals in movies.  In addition to smoke alarms and sprinklers, they'll install digital camera and mobile phone flash detectors.

Think FuelMix is going whacko?  Just watch and see how desperate hotels are gonna become for revenue.

4 Kinds Of Stimulation

 Hey hey fags, break out the lube and choose your favourite hand.  Your gonna be competing with the financial and social masturbation practised by the slick hands of that interesting-to-watch-failing-state, God's Own Country.

1.  Using their currency as lube, the brains over there have decided to artificially engineer (we paraphrase) a healthy inflation.  It's the equivalent of using digitally produced Viagra to artificially induce an economic hard on with inflation as the blood supply.  Any fool who's read the fine print that comes with Viagra, will know that the hard on can get stuck - a condition known as priapism - and that can be quite painful.  So it remains to be seen just how the inflation can be controlled or whether it spirals into hyper-inflation Weimar Republic style.  The anger shown by Asian economies, Brazil and Germany is understandable.  The world's reserve currency is acting like a pathogen, infecting everything with instability, volatility, inflation, induced trade protectionism, a currency war that's already started - and, as the Brazilians warned - the potential for outright global war.

2.  Apparently it's only now sinking into God's Own Country's Great Unwashed Public that it's perfectly possible to have  macro-economic deflation, consumer price inflation and an asset bubble - simultaneously.  For the average fag getting trippy about the upcoming "Holiday Season", FuelMix suggests comparing this year's price for the turkey with last years -and the price difference between a turkey at Thanksgiving and one at Christmas.  Oh and don't forget to compare the increase in state, municipal and other usage taxes too.  Seeing a pattern here?

3.  Then consider the millions of dollars spent by God's Own Country - as part of their economic stimulation program - to fund..............a study in Africa to encourage uncut niggas to wash their genitals more thoroughly after sex as part of  an STD/HIV prevention program.  Exactly how that benefits their average turkey-digesting, probably unemployed, probably (illegally) foreclosed citizen has yet to be explained to FuelMix.

4.  And finally.....when travelling through God's Own Country's airports, a refusal to be body scanned is met with some comprehensive genital fondling and groping.  Think of it as JO To Go.  It should be funnier.  But it isn't.  It's just another step in the comprehensive dumbing down of an historically ignorant population.  The increasing ire of pilots, flight attendants and passengers is better late than never.  Let's see how this one plays out.

Watch the above video.  It's actually pretty good at explaining the absurdity of all of this.

Mirror Images

So let's see......President Mutt 44* of God's Own Country arrives in India on a state visit.  He's been advised by the fools in his land to avoid the Golden Temple in Amritsar, the Sikh's holiest place, since in order to enter it, he would have to cover his head.  Apparently the idea of Mutt 44* covering his head would convey a "negative" image back home that he was somehow a "Muzzlim" - even though he would be entering a Sikh shrine.

It would appear that the Western demographic in God's Own Country derives some pleasure in referring to those from the Middle East and beyond as "towel heads" or "rag heads".  One only has to read the derogative and fundamentally ignorant comments in their "free" press to appreciate the astounding bigotry.

Which got FuelMix thinking.............

Presumably the ubiquitous backward-facing baseball caps so prevalent on their heads and on the streets of  their continent, should be regarded as the turbans of the white trash?

*Mutt = the name he used to describe himself.

In Pot We (Don't) Trust (Yet)

Well, well, well, considering the comments that FuelMix had made about the insanity of legalizing pot in the cash-strapped Not-So-Golden-State, who would have thought that some semblance of good sense would have prevailed?

Proposition 19, intended to legalize pot use and sales, failed.  Check out the report from Yahoo! News dated 3 November 2010 entitled,  Pot activists vow to push legalization in 2012.

Of all the counties in the Not-So-Golden-State, the strongest support for Prop 19 came from San Francisco and Santa Cruz.

God, fags are so predictable.

Dear FuelMix


Dropped into this joint (coz it's right across the alley from Pure Fitness in SoHo and some hot guys go to that gym right?  So I'm thinking hmmm meybee they need some post workout fun....) Boy what a disappointment.  Your  reviews of this place are correct except that they now added a bunch of curtains to section off the areas.


Downstairs is clean enough.  But the upstairs playrooms are really small and grubby.  So is the only toilet and shower with mold growing on the shower curtain.  Upstairs dark area gives off a real icky vibe.  Was trying to play with one guy but neither of us wanted to lie down on the grubby mattress so called it off.


Wuz only 5 guys there all GAMs watching Japanese porn. They said that on Friday nites and Saturday nites guys from the clubs drop in late.  Very disappointing experience so went to My Way Platinum in Wanchai instead.  Had a better time there.

FuelMix says:  Thanks.  Hard to know what to make of Follow Me "Sauna". Doesn't have a dry sauna or a steam room and FuelMix has seen and heard about the playroom grubbiness.  Location is potentially excellent as you pointed out, but a total waste of space.  FuelMix has heard about the Friday and Saturday late nite drop ins from the clubs as well as rumours of "muscleboys" there.  Whatever..........frankly he doesn't believe it.  There are other places in town to get action.

The thing that quirks FuelMix is why Central Escalator isn't open 24 hours Friday and Saturdays?  It's right there too..........

Hi FuelMix


Dropped into ABC Sauna today in the early evening since it was close to my hotel.  Wasn't expecting much but it was quite full with a mixture of GAMs, GWMs and a truckload of Mexicans.  Lots of cruising, some action in the steam room and several of the rooms were occupied.  Not the hottest guys around but presentable.  So-So kinda place.  Popular with Taiwanese so I was told.  Was also told that muscular guys show up on Friday evenings and weekends.  Is that helpful?


FuelMix says:  Yeah it's helpful to know, although FuelMix adamantly refuses to give this place the coveted Debauchery Seal of Approval.  There are other places around town worthy of that.  As for the truckload of Mexicans, one assumes (at least in the Northern Hemisphere) that since they're neither picking grapes nor picking their noses, the bus had to take them somewhere.

Alexander Sauna 8

1st Floor, Wing Cheong Building

MTR: Mong Kok Station, Exit E 1 

Open 24 hours
Tel: 2148 0400

Woo hoo!! fags !!  Jacked up on sushi and sake FuelMix hit Alexander Sauna around 8pm on the weekend and totally had a blast !!  The place was hopping.  He got serviced 8 times.......yep, swear to God, 8 fuckin' times......in the darkroom, in the private rooms, in the dry sauna, in the shower and in the steam room.  FuelMix was just too drunk to stagger into the shallow hot tub with the rain shower, but caught the attention of a totally hot, seriously built, half-Chinese, half Black American stud who ate FuelMix's ass out like there was no tomorrow.

Man.......it had been a couple of months since FuelMix had hit Alexander.  This place appears to be rocketing in popularity and diversity of clientele. They just kept on coming.  Full spectrum of chinks, white trash,  foreigners and tourists PLUS for the first first time, FuelMix saw THREE built black dudes there at the same time (excluding the one above).  Curiously, it was the generic white fags showing the most attitude. Standing around like sandwiches in search of a picnic, they were duly and deservedly ignored by the horny clientele and had nobody but themselves to blame. They glared as FuelMix got comprehensively serviced.  FuelMix  laughed maniacally ...........8 times you fuckin' faggots............

The local vibe says that the fun in Alexander starts Friday afternoons - but remember the place is open 24 hours.  So potentially any day would work.  The place is  totally competing with Central Escalator for diversity of clientele - and one more thing - FuelMix spotted a few fags from the now defunct Towel Club hanging out at Alexander.

Amazing experience this time around.  FuelMix is still recovering.  Feel free to send get well notes.

(Remember, gay saunas are a fickle place and it's like a casino.  You pay your money.  You take your chances.  Sometimes you win.  Sometimes you don't).

Pothead Gatorade

Doesn't matter what spin you put on it, that's what it is.  Not entirely clear whether it is only available by prescription, but the details of this beverage, apparently made from ingredients grown in God's Own Country, can be found on the quaintly named Dixie Elixirs & Medibles site.

Gay Bombay (Mumbai)

FuelMix received this from a reader in Mumbai, India

Dear FuelMix

Your blog and the quality of your writing are very impressive.  It is refreshing to see a blog that is candid and explicit without sinking into generic gay porn like so many others.  Having said that, the gay sauna reviews for Hong Kong make for interesting reading.  Perhaps I should try the saunas there.  Unfortunately there are no gay saunas in Mumbai (Bombay) so I am unable to contribute a review.  Mumbai is a very cosmopolitan city with a huge (but discreet) gay population on account of it being the business and cultural centre of India.  One of my favourite links is Gay Bombay.   This is a high quality site about gay life in Mumbai. Could I please ask you to let your readers know of this site?


FuelMix says:  Done.

Snorting To New Highs

According to a report in the Telegraph dated 23 September 2010, entitled Oxytocin-the love hormone-could cure shyness what was once used to increase empathy and bonding, particularly between parents and children is now being considered as a cure for shyness - via a nasal spray.  It appears that this naturally occurring hormone, increases empathetic ability in the shy and socially less proficient.

Naturally occurring hormone huh?  Well, that's bad news for fags.

That's because the average fag resorts to synthetics like poppers and crack to increase his social proficiency.....oh wait if he gets his grubby paws on pure cocaine, or pure pot or pure heroin, that might qualify as a natural chemical.  Rats.........they're all usually cut with something too.

Come to think of it, is the fag actually increasing his social proficiency and empathy towards others when he's on chems?  Well, at a rave or circuit party or at Hustlaball, he might go around hugging and French-kissing the other fags.  But most of the time when he's flying on something, it's not for social proficiency or empathy.  It's the reckless abandonment of inhibition, the loss of coordination and a complete cognitive dissonance about time and space.  In fact, some fags are so socially proficient and empathetic while they're on chems, that they do us all a favour and permanently check out.

FuelMix can just hear the righteous chorus of fags screaming in disagreement......."Yeah, but when I yell "C'mon, fuck me, fuck me, just fuck me", when I'm repeatedly snorting poppers or chems in the sauna, I'm relating to other people and showing my empathy".

An Altered State

"......the last thing we want to be is a pot-based Disneyland"

-----Lark Melesea, of Twist, sellers of Hemp clothing, Mendocino, California, quoted in USA Today, 8 October 2010, Will Mendocino County become the Napa Valley of marijuana ?

Several times in this blog, FuelMix has written about the Not-So-Golden State in God's Own Country flirting with the idea of legalizing marijuana for the purposes of raising tax revenue. It has implications for fags and the inherently stupid general population.  If the ballot proposition to legalize pot for recreational use passes in November 2010, then parts of the Not-So-Golden-State will apparently rival its wine growing localities by offering "bud & breakfast" tours, "meet the growers" days, marijuana tasting rooms and other haze inducing activities for the mellow, the hypocritical, the politically correct and the vacuous - which pretty much sums up the demographic in that state.

The Not-So-Golden-State is falling over itself to complete its "pot-ty training" and become the Emerald Triangle of Pot. New words are entering the lexicon like "marijuana tourism".  Other counties like Oakland have "pot universities" that teach the art of growing and medical dispensaries selling pot-laced Belgian chocolates.  Yes indeed, there's nothing more intelligent than adding another drug to an already addictive confectionery.  And just wait till they start driving........

Of course, these are the same people who bitch long and hard that their southern neighbour, NarcoTaco, is sending too many drugs their way and that growing it themselves would lessen foreign criminal influence.  Really?  Check your history idiots.  The Not-So-Golden-State used to be part of NarcoTaco and these greasy chicanos ain't never gonna give it up.  If they did, then all those nice gang members who sodomize fags with baseball bats, would head back south.

(FuelMix is waiting for a rational answer to the question: if str8 Latino gang members hate fags, why would they play with their buttholes?)

Oh and guess what else fags?  The co-founder of Facebook thinks legalizing pot is a great idea too and made a US$100,000.00 donation to the cause. As the main beneficiary of his largesse enthused:

".....What's interesting here is that (co-founder of Facebook) is a member of the generation that really gets it".

Gets what?.........Sense?......Nah that's pitching the bar too high.

Friends In The Half Life

Those readers who take a dim view of Facebook's curious privacy policy, now have another reason to take an even dimmer view.

It appears that Facebook has changed its "Friends" policy.  Previously when someone applied to become a Friend,  a person had the right to either accept them or ignore them.  If they were ignored, one assumed that was the end of them.

Not any more.

Now when someone applies to become a Friend, a person can either accept them or use a new button called "Not Now".  If the "Not Now" option is chosen, the Friend is sent to a kind of half-life.  They're not your Friend but.....UNLESS YOU'VE TAKEN THE ADDITIONAL STEP OF BLOCKING THEM.......THEY WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY SUBSCRIBED TO ALL YOUR PUBLIC FEEDS, POSTS, PICTURES AND INFORMATION............

Unless the privacy options are set to "Friends Only" or higher, this person or people in the Half Life become ghosts who follow you around leaching considerable amounts of your personal information.

In other words, what Facebook has done is to morph someone you don't want as a "Friend" into a "Follower".

Creepy and unethical.

The Scent Of A Man

During World War 2, British Intelligence, namely MI6, discovered that semen was a terrific invisible ink with which to pen top secret letters. It did not react to the main methods of detection at the time (iodine vapour) and was readily available...............The report is from Telegraph.co.uk dated 21 September 2010 entitled, MI6 used bodily fluids as invisible ink

The only drawback was that Secret Agents had to be reminded to use "fresh" ....*ahem*...."ink" when recipients of their letters began noticing an unusual odor emanating from the letters.

Presumably the use of cum as invisible ink, also gave new meaning to the phrase, "I need to be left alone whilst I go through my confidential briefs".

Towel Club Guys?

This from a reader:


Hey FuelMix, now that Towel Club closed down which sauna are those guys going to?

FuelMix says:  Dunno.  Heard a rumour it was Action, but find that hard to believe. Since Action is not open 24 hours, maybe they're showing up there during the weekends when it's open overnight.  If anyone would like to confirm that, or knows of any other sauna where those guys are now going, drop a line to the blog.  Enquiring fag minds want to know.

Central Escalator 7

2nd Floor, Cheung Hing Commercial Building, 

37 Cochrane Street,

Central, 

Hong Kong

MTR: Central or Hong Kong Station
 

Tel: 2581 9951

Easy way to find it: above 7 Eleven and opposite Park N Shop supermarket.

• Let's acknowledge that this is probably the longest running gay sauna in Very Rich Megacity. 
• The staff are extremely friendly and speak excellent English. 
  
• It has a devoted following.
• It is the LEAST ATTITUDINAL GAY SAUNA IN TOWN !! because it attracts a mix of nationalities and ages - local, white, foreign and tourist. Its compact space pretty much forces people to interact.  And interact, they do.  They'll be yapping in the Locker Room area, at the little porn TV nearby, just outside the showers and at the main counter.

Now..... let's call a spade a spade:

• The decor is tired and worn.  
• This place is showing its age, wear and tear and is begging for a renovation;
  
• The carpeting is perpetually damp;
• The place has a pokey feel to it; 
• Everything seems cramped;

 AND.............the place is attracting Fuglies by the bucketful.  Fugly whites, fugly chinks and fugly anything else.  The thing is, they seem nice people to talk to, they smile, they chat, they offer their e-mail addresses, utter grammatically correct compliments.  They seem pretty genuine, but completely UN-fuckable on account of being Fugly.


This is the complete opposite of what happens in other saunas around town: i.e. (hot) guys utterly untouchable, sullen and silent on account of their attitude.  In Central Escalator, the Friendly Fuglies are easy to touch and hug but not that fuck-worthy.  It's so sad when rejecting their sexual advances.  It's like having to put a puppy to sleep.  You hated having to be the one to make that decision, but there was no other viable choice at the time.  And the fugly, like the puppy, simply accepts his fate and looks at you lovingly.  It was nearly enough to make FuelMix cry and stuff an apologetic note in the fugly's locker.

My Way Platinum Sauna 6

4th Floor, Kuo Wah Building

Telephone: 25749098

Note: NOT open 24 hours, except Saturdays and Public Holidays.
Mondays - Fridays: 4pm to midnight;
Saturdays - overnite;
Sundays: 2pm to midnight (Nude)

This from a reader:

Hey FuelMix, was reading your previous reviews of this place.  GAM ABC here and your write up was pretty accurate across the board.  Dropped in mid-week evening after work.  About 16 people there.  They were dishing out small towels which could be replaced as often as needed.

Mostly skinny GAM twinks with silly attitude or giggling like school girls.  Since I'm a "banana", my Chinese isn't that great.  Once that come out there were a few snide remarks and I got shunned too. They stare like crazy but don't do anything.

Staff are friendly and polite, but these local GAMS really feel threatened.  The play rooms mostly remained empty.  Most of the action took place in that pokey dark space right at the end of the Dark Corridor.  Mostly it was guys rubbing against each other making little mewing noises sounding like kittens LOL.

Not really an inspiring place.

FuelMix says:

In the interests of accuracy, FuelMix was reliably informed that My Way Platinum Sauna gets busy on Fridays and Saturday midnight onwards.  That's when they're open overnight. The place starts filling up late in the evenings.  On those 2 nights, the place is said to be packed with 20s and 30 somethings - mainly chinks and there's said to be tons of group action.  Since FuelMix doesn't have the body clock of Paris Hilton, he's not gonna personally verify that and will leave it to some fascinated reader to drop a note to the blog.  FuelMix 's review was done on a Sunday afternoon, when there were a lot of guys there too, since it's Nude Day.

FuelMix was also reliably informed that whites do show up there now and again.  They are said to be in their late 20s to 40s.  They won't be found there as regularly as some other saunas around town, but have been known to appear around 4pm and stick around for a couple of hours.

The Wet Area and the Dark Area are large impressive spaces that do have play potential.  Perhaps as people read this blog and word gets around, the clientele will become more mixed and less standoff-ish.  Remember, after Chaps Sauna in North Point, My Way Platinum is probably the second largest space in town.

By the way, the guys who own My Way Platinum used to own Playground Sauna in Causeway Bay, which closed a few months ago.

Gay Sauna Etiquette 6

So There's No Downside In A Gay Sauna ?

Of course there is.

1.  You can show up on a dead nite. 

In Fagland "dead" has several meanings:

• there's hardly anyone there;
• there's nobody hot enough for you;
• people are there but engaging in Stand & Model or other attitudinal shit;
• you're not getting the action that you specifically want;
• somebody really died because of a drug overdose.

2.  You can be the subject of Aversion and Avoidance 

For all their bullshit about "Diversity" and "Acceptance" fags excel in this tactic.  In some saunas, both in Asia and the West, it can be utterly brutal, degrading and demoralizing.  It can be just one person, a clique, or the stampeding herd that fashions itself as the collective arbiter of who's hot and who's not.

Common methods of A & A in a Gay Sauna:

(1)  Implicit Racism - recognized for years by non-whites and foreigners in the West. Repeatedly (and fraudulently) denied by the whites on the grounds of "preference".  Unfortunately for them, as Asia becomes more noticeable, the shoe is on the other foot. Clientele in Asian saunas have been known to engage in reciprocal racism towards Whites. Effectively it's a form of shunning.  The fag is deemed not to exist.

(2)  Avoidance of Eye Contact - sometimes going so far as to shield their face.

(3)  The Fag Head Swivel (which may or may not be accompanied by the sound *TSK* uttered with an unmistakeable degree of contempt)

(4)  Running Out Of The Steam Room - as soon as you enter.

(5)  Running Out Of The Dry Sauna - as soon as you enter.

(6)  Storming Out Of The Jacuzzi - as soon as you enter. A technique perfected in the West against non-whites and now being widely copied in Asia.

(7)  Turning Their Back On You In The Shower - sometimes, this may be necessary e.g. to send a clear message to a groping fag who can't take a polite "No Thanks".

(8)  Shoving Your Hand Away When Touched - That's the clearest rejection signal.  Move on to another fag.

(9)  Snide Remarks About You To Others As You Pass By - This can be really nasty - if you don't speak the language.  If you do, then do what FuelMix did to a chink fag in the West who tried that stunt and muttered something interesting about FuelMix to a chink buddy.  FuelMix throttled him while speaking to him in chink.

The other white customers were aghast, the chink fag was mortified not expecting that a foreigner would speak chink.  He and his buddy got dressed and left.

If you do catch something nasty said about you, do what FuelMix does. Go up to the fag and say, "I'm thrilled you're talking about me, coz I'm absolutely worth it.  I can't thank you enough for spreading the word about me".  White fags in particular, don't know which way to look after that one.

(10)  The Emotionally Wounded Fag - These guys just don't handle rejection well and may throw a fit when their sexual advances are declined.  You might get a torrent of abuse together with an accusation that you cruised them first. Keep walking.  They'll make a real public show of avoiding you.

(11) The Prince Of Darkness - a fag in a private room deems you unattractive as you walk by and immediately switches off the light - only to switch it back on when you've passed his door.  One of the Western fags favourite racial profiling techniques.  FuelMix has witnessed so many Oriental fags on the receiving end of this one.

(12)  The Door Swinger - a variation of the Prince Of Darkness, the occupying fag shuts the door by swiveling his foot, then flicks his foot the other way to open it again, once you've passed by.


3.  You Can Catch A Disease

Find out for yourself.

Gay Sauna Etiquette 5

How Do I Get Action ?

The good news is that everybody is looking for the same thing.  The bad news is that not everyone is gonna get it.  The reality is that no matter how attractive you think you are and regardless of what the other fags tell you ("OMG....you're soooo Haaawt, you could get anyone in here...!!") you're not going to appeal to everybody.  So don't even try.

Fag nature is such that even if they find you achingly attractive, they'll turn you down just to show the other guys in the sauna that they're not desperate (they are) and you're just not that attractive - to them.  The trick is not to take anything personally, whether the compliments, or the rejections, or the cold shoulder, or the fag head swivel, or the Stand & Model.  At some level, every fag in a sauna is desperate for action.  They wouldn't be there if they weren't - even if they tell you that they're just chillin' to let the stress from the office evaporate.

So....How Do I Get Noticed ?

If you're attractive and have turned the attitude right down then:

• Expect to be followed around the sauna.  It's like a circuit.  Everybody just goes around and around looking for different hotties to follow, proposition and fuck
• Expect people to brush against you whether you're naked or wearing a towel
• Expect people to come and whisper in your ear that they think you're hot and invite you to play
• Expect to make intense eye contact
• Expect people to smile more - and a little smile from you goes a long way
• Expect people to nod in your direction to join them when you're in the porn lounges or in the Dark Area
• Expect people to touch you in the shower, the steam room the dry sauna, the jacuzzi
• Expect to be followed into the toilets
• Expect people to stop and compliment you
• Expect people to hang around outside your private room waiting for your signal 
• Do all the above to the other fags
• Play with yourself more - in the Dark Room Corridors, in the corridors near the Private Rooms, or if you're in the Private Room, turn on the light to a comfy level of brightness, open the door and get the show on the road.  If you play with yourself, they will come.........(pun intended)

A gay sauna is the place to show off. If you have the body to pull it off plus a pleasing disposition that takes things lightly,  you'll be a hit.  Sadly, there's a lot of scowling in there, simply because the fag is modelling an expression he's seen in Men's Vogue or he's pissed off that YOU'RE getting the attention and he isn't. That's the reality of a gay sauna.  No matter how tall, how hunky, how muscled the fag is, at heart he's an emotional envy-ridden pygmy.  There's nothing more pathetic than a fag throwing a hissy fit coz you scored with the hottie and he didn't.  You'll be seeing a lot of that.  Heck you may even get shoved and verbally abused out of spite.  It happened to FuelMix.


So...it's OK To Suck N' Fuck All Over The Premises?

Here are FuelMix's Rules:

• The Locker Room - a lingering kiss or a peck on the cheek. No more than that.
• The Main TV Living Room - a hug and a cuddle is good enough. People have come to chill and chat.
• The Food Counter - swipe some freebie snacks to munch in the private rooms with your buddy, or to have food sex with your buddy in the private rooms.  That can be a nutritious ton of sexy fun. Make sure you wipe up the private room afterwards.
• The Gay Sauna Gym - if it happens it happens, no one's gonna lecture you.  And besides are you seriously gonna deny that you've never fantasized about fuckin' in a gym?
• The Porn Lounges - uhhh.....yeah, you can either get publicly down n' dirty there, or get cranked up and haul your buddy to a room.  It's all good.
• The Dark Area - ditto.
• The Showers - the showers are where the fags come to cool off or clean up. Of course action (and group action) happens there too, but let the fags perform their ablutions and give you a clear signal to play.  Otherwise you'll end up being a fuckin' nuisance.  It's perfectly fine to stand nearby and ogle the hottie as he showers. Many showers in the gay saunas are set up for maximum visibility by the passing traffic.
• The Toilets - Oh yeah.....lot of fantasy sex goes on in there, particularly at the urinals and in the cubicles. Like the showers, wait for a cue.  Some fags don't like being stared at while they piss. Apparently it freezes their urethra and they just can't piss.  Guess it's a leftover from all that communal pissing in grade school and high school.
• The Glory Hole Booths - If you're gonna enter a Glory Hole Booth then DO SOMETHING in there.  Either suck, get sucked, fuck or be fucked. Remember that Glory Hole Booths are sometimes arranged next to each other, so if you don't do anything, a minimum of 3 people are affected.  That is a total waste of space and time. FuelMix has been known to bang on the doors and throw out idle occupants. (But you'd better have a ton of self-confidence to do that).
• The Steam Room, The Sauna And The Jacuzzi - Yep, and lots of it.  Group action often starts in there and moves to the rooms.
• The Corridors Near The Private Rooms - sure why not? You can block traffic, start a party, expose yourself and draw attention. What's the worst that can happen? People who wanna get past will just brush against you.
• The Private Rooms - why do you think they're called "Private Rooms" fags?
• The Terrace Or The Rooftop - check with the staff what the etiquette is.

Pretty comprehensive series huh?  FuelMix isn't done yet.

Gay Sauna Etiquette 4

Casing The Joint

Entering a gay sauna for the very first time, or showing up at a gay sauna you've never been to, is exhilarating and disorienting.  Naked and semi-naked guys, the smell of sex and candy, boners showing through towels, the variety of guys, the gay porn, the gay mags, the gay art, the lights and the pitch darkness, the non-stop music (and in Asia.....the Karaoke.....enuff said).

Spend a little while exploring the premises.  Gay saunas are deliberately designed to confuse, confound, stimulate and titillate.  The better saunas have spent a fortune on layout, decor and facilities.  You owe it to yourself to explore in some detail (hence FuelMix's really detailed sauna reviews) because you never know around which corner the next hottie will be waiting...........for you.

Besides, once you can confidently walk around the place, the sooner you can divert your attention to the clientele -which is why you showed up in the first place.

The Layout Of  A Gay Sauna

Although the details will vary, gay saunas will usually be divided up as follows:


Reception Area - usually with freebie mags and some gay toys to buy, plus gay fliers advertising what's going on in the gay scene.

A Lounge - This is more like a Living Room with the Flat Screen TV tuned to a local or satellite channel.  It's usually well lit, homey and guys will sit around, chat there and bring their drinks there.  There might even be a fireplace for cold wet nites.  There will be some mild kissin' and cuddlin' but overt sex there is not encouraged.  There will be some light free snacks in the Lounge so help yourself.  In Asia expect to see lots of bananas and cherry tomatoes.

Food & Drinks Counter - For obvious reasons, this is pretty close to the main lounge.  Some snacks may be free, there may be free drinks machines, or the staff can whip up a snack, they may even have chefs there, or a series of menus from nearby restaurants that do take-out and delivery.


Porn Lounge(s) - These will be dimly lit.  They may have multiple screens showing gay porn, leather and vinyl sofas or reclining cushions or just wooden benches.  Guys will be standing or sitting, jacking off to the porn.  Some will make intense eye contact.  Group sex is big in there as is one-on-one action.  If you're an exhibitionist, you'll love the porn lounges.  Some of the porn lounges can be pretty large with wide benches big enough to lie on, arranged in stadium style seating  This isn't the place to make loud conversation or discuss your tax returns.


A Gym or Fitness Centre - Some saunas in the West have a full gym with machines, free weights and cardio that rivals anything a commercial gym can offer.  There can be some seriously stunning eye candy there, but since they're so busy pumping, expect the attitude to be more severe. If you've got the body, join in.  You'll get cruised in no time.  Some gay sauna gyms will allow you to work out naked, but if you are there to work out, then gym shorts and trainers would be more sensible.


Tanning Beds or Booths - These are becoming real popular these days especially in Asia.  Speak to the staff if you wanna use them.

The Wet Area - the showers, the steam room, the dry sauna, the jacuzzi, the cold plunge pool and toilets (or any combination thereof).  This is the place to be seen, to show off, to get real wet and to get real dirty.  Like the porn lounges action is accepted and encouraged.  In some saunas in the West, there is an adjacent area for Watersports and Piss Play.

The Dark Area - This will usually consist of a maze, some communal play rooms, and glory holes.  There will be a lot of people standing around waiting for someone to trigger the action.  (FuelMix is occasionally referred to as "The Party Planner" because he just hates standing around doing nothing).

Theme Rooms - Usually near or in the Dark Area, these Theme Rooms (which are available for rent or are sometimes free for anyone to walk in and use) may have slings, mirrors or an S&M theme.

A Terrace or Patio or a Roof Deck - This can be a lot of fun particularly in the West as they have rooftop barbecues, a seating area and a rooftop jacuzzi for action under the stars. Slowly this idea is catching on in Asia


The Corridors -  In the West, the private room rentals are located in the corridors. The corridors can get really crowded.  Some people with private rooms will have their doors open........why???

Gay Sauna Etiquette 3

Finding Your Locker or Your Room

Warning:  It is a gross breach of etiquette to wander around a gay sauna fully dressed.  In the West, the management can and will insist that you undress first.  In Asia, you'll get dirty looks.  It won't be a good start.

The Lockers

It's perfectly fine to ask the Staff or a cute fag customer to help you find your room or locker.  In Asian saunas, because the space tends to be smaller (although that is rapidly changing in some Asian cities as Asian saunas start to compete in size and luxury with those in the West) the lockers are pretty easy to find and are usually near the entrance.  In Western saunas, you might have to walk inside a bit and frequently the lockers are in a separate area from those who have paid for a private room.

In the Locker Room area, a customer will be stared at as he undresses.  A gay sauna is a place to get naked and to size up the arriving meat.  It's kinda fun, so just flow with it.  A few brazen fags might even hit on you while they or you are undressing.  Be nice.  You have the right to accept or reject and besides, you just got in and  wanna check out the meat too.  Don't be afraid to show off your body and stash the attitude in the locker with your backpack.  Then wrap your towel, and strut...............if it's your first time and you're already being hit on by a cute fag, ask him to show you around.  It could be fun and you get to make a new buddy immediately.

The Private Rooms

If you've rented a private room, it will usually be part of a cluster of private rooms with several corridors.  Those corridors are for cruising and standing around.  They might be dimly lit compared to the Locker Room area, so let your eyes adjust to the darkness whilst looking for your room.  Don't hesitate to ask the fags standing around where your room might be.  If you show up during Blackout Nite, you'll definitely need help.  They'll happily oblige because they need to know sooner rather than later, what you look like naked.

Get into your room, turn on the lights, shut the door, get undressed, put your things away (lock them if necessary, particularly in the West) and wrap your towel (unless it's Nude Nite).  If you've hit during prime time, there will be some interesting moans and groans coming from the adjoining rooms.  It all adds to the ambience.

Then take a deep breath, open the door, dim the lights a tad, step out in the corridor and lock the door behind you.....

Congrats.........you're now a fully fledged fag in a gay sauna............what happens next??

Gay Sauna Etiquette 2

Before You Show Up

• Read the Gay Sauna Reviews (especially the ones FuelMix has done)
• Have Google Maps on your smart phone (FuelMix has put Google Maps on his sauna reviews)
• Call for their opening hours
• Ask if they have a Theme Nite 
• Ask the best times to show up
• Ask if they require membership or if anyone can show up (some saunas in the West run a dual policy simultaneously)
• If you're a tourist say so and enquire for a tourist discount

When You Show Up

• Tell them you called
• Ask how much to get in
• Remind them you're a tourist and ask for a better deal if appropriate
• Some saunas particularly in the West have different rates for private rooms and lockers.  In Asian saunas, the customer pays for a locker rental and gets to play in the private rooms
• If they require membership, ask if there's an "Anonymous Policy" and how much the rate for that is. Asian saunas tend to be more discreet than Western saunas and don't usually have such a formal distinction
• Ask how many hours you can stay for.  Even if a sauna is open 24 hours, a customer will be allowed to stay up to e.g. 10 hours, or 8 hours or 6 hours.  After that, he wishes to stay on, he will have to pay again
• If you show up at Lunch Time, ask if they have a Lunch Time Rate.  Some saunas will do a 2 hour Dip N' Dash during those periods.  Perfect for the busy, horny professional
• Check again on what the Theme Nite is.  Most saunas will have it posted near the Front Desk
• Ask if they have In & Out privileges.  A lot of saunas in Asia and the West have them but they don't advertise it.  In Out privilege allows a customer to step out for a couple of hours for a smoke or a pizza, without giving up their locker or their room.  Provided them come back within 2 or 3 hours, there's no extra charge to re-enter.
• If it's Small Towel Nite, ask how much extra to pay for a larger towel
• Smile nicely to the Staff.  You might get to fuck them after their shift

Gay Sauna Etiquette 1

FuelMix was not surprised to observe the massive popularity of his gay sauna reviews.  However, he was not expecting readers to the blog who appeared as a result of the Google search words, "gay sauna etiquette".

FuelMix realized he might have put the cart before the horse.  It was all very well to publish encyclopedic detail of what to find in a gay sauna ostensibly aimed at the confident gay man who knew what to do.  But what about those fags, quasi-fags, wannabe fags and fags-in-denial who hadn't a clue what to do once they got there?

There appear to be 5 categories of hapless fags:

The Tourist Fag - He just needs a refresher course on gay sauna etiquette, with reference to the local jurisdiction;

Barely Legal Age Twinks - massively horny to dip their boner into a hot tub and see who else is chillin'.  If they haven't yet developed an attitude, they can be kinda fun to run into in a gay sauna.  These guys are like puppies - they'll wag their tail at anyone.  And sometimes that's the problem.

Miserably Married Fags - Who've admitted to themselves that they can only eat fish if it's on a plate - even if they haven't yet told the clitoris and the kids.  Most are lousy cocksuckers.  But some are spectacular pigs, at both ends, once they release their Inner Man Pussy they always knew they had;

Terrified Suffocating Closet Bisexuals - Why does FuelMix say they are suffocating? They're caught somewhere between hetero, metro and homo.  They'll come with all the usual descriptive tags - str8 looking, str8 acting, masculine, wax their back, trim their chest hair and pubes, go for facials, be part time models, suit and tie professionals with a jawline.  Problem is they're stuck to a clitoris.  She could be hot, but secretly they crave more than that - and only another man can give it to them.  Why are they terrified? They've got high paying jobs, often they're in their early 30s, they hit the gym, they may have even started a family.  They're hot, they know it, and they're fuckin' scared.  They can easily be spotted on the street, pretending not to cruise. (Hint: as soon as they make eye contact, they'll look at their feet.  A real fag would swivel his head).


Itinerant Fags On Business Trips - These are the ones FuelMix utterly loathes.  They can be yuppie, middle aged or elderly.  Back in their dog park, these fools are the str8, gin-swilling pillars of the Anglican church.  Often they'll be Rotary Club members, Freemasons, Committee Member of this or that, "masculine jock professional", "former college athlete","family values/love my wife guy"  blah, blah, blah.... But........buy them a Business Class ticket and watch them crank out the ads on Craigslist - complete with naked faceless pic taken in the reflection of the hotel bathroom mirror.  When they leave town and head home to the clitoris, expect them to post a final ad giving their flight number or the airline Business Class Lounge where they'll be lurking. FuelMix wrote about these shitheads in his brilliant posts, "Yeah I'm Straight" and "The Vow".  These guys, fags to the core, can be very duplicitous.

The fascinated reader will have realized that not only are these categories distinct, but they also merge.  For example:

• a Barely Legal Aged Twink can be on his way to becoming a Terrified Suffocating Closet Bisexual
• a Terrified Suffocating Closet Bisexual can also be a Miserably Married Fag
• a Miserably Married Fag can also be an Itinerant Fag On A Business Trip
• an Itinerant Fag On A Business Trip can also be a Terrified Suffocating Closet Bisexual

Flip Jacks 2

In an earlier post also entitled Flip Jacks, FuelMix made the following comments about Filipino fags and the apparent embarrassment they face in describing their nationality:

For a nation whose main exports are domestic helpers, janitors, nurses, whores, bar waitresses, nightclub musicians and theme park dancers, the embarrassment might be understandable.  But in Fagland, it's taken to deceptive extremes.  So deceptive that the average Flip fag will grab any nationality other than his own. They can range from anything from Thai, to Malay, to "Asian-Spanish" (that description is particularly favoured on the West Coast) to "Latin American" (dicey and risks being equated to ugly Hondurans) all the way to "Asian-Latin" (which in FuelMix's book, is pretty much, "WTF"...?)

FuelMix maintains that prior to the Spanish colonization of the Philippines, the indigenous people were a mixture of Melanesian, Micronesian and Dravidian. Nothing wrong with that.  Those whose ancestors fucked a white Spanish spawned some better looking types at least according to Western tastes. (Incidentally, it is claimed that the Spanish who settled there described themselves as "Filipinos" and that term stuck).  The vast majority continued to fuck their Melanesian, Micronesian and Dravidian friends and spawned the standard looking Flip.

The point being made is that neither Melanesian, Micronesian nor Dravidian is Asian in the Oriental sense.  So even if the Flip fag claims to have Spanish blood, he's still going to have to come up with something better than "Asian-Spanish" in order to avoid the embarrassment of being labelled "Filipino".

For a thought-proving read check out Yahoo Answers,  If Filipinos are Asian AND Spanish mix then what kind of Asian were we before the Hispanics came in....Chinese?

Gay Middle East 2

Check out this link to a pretty interesting site GayMiddleEast.com

Also check out the article from that site dated 10 April 2010 entitled Bing censoring non-pornographic LGBT searches in 22 Arabic speaking countries

The curious result is that it would appear that FuelMix's liberal use of the English words "fag", "fags" and "faggots" (which he uses to make a point)  allows this blog (for the moment) to show up on Bing's search results in the Middle East.

ABC Sauna 6

This from a reader:

At first I thought your last review of ABC sounded too harsh so I dropped in to check it out. Guess you were right.  This place had a wierd vibe and lousy music.  The GAMs were sullen - wouldn't say they were attractive even though they seem to be in their 20s and 30s and the place really does get ugly Filipinos who just stand around and glare.  Didn't enjoy it at all.  There were a few whites there who looked really pissed off.

It just doesn't seem to be the place to click with people.  Totally different from Alexander.

FuelMix says:  Thanks for the update.

Crazed Gangbang Stuffing 2

Not content with having fucked up Western economies with cheap money, toxic debt instruments, unintelligible derivatives, false credit ratings, deflation (and the specter of inflation or worse, hyperinflation), Wall Street's White Trash are heading to Asia quietly bringing their shit with them..........

And that shit is none other that "High Frequency Trading" or "HFT" or "Flash Trading".  FuelMix wrote about this and its similarity to gay porn in the post entitled Crazed Gangbang Stuffing 1. 29 June 2010. Apparently the financial site, Zero Hedge, in the article, "Bank Of America Now Proudly Exporting HFT Market Death And Destruction To Asia" dated 30 August 2010, takes an equally dim view (without referring to gay porn).

Let's get a few things clear fags.

1. Flash Trading, contrary to the glib assertions of its snake oil salesmen, does NOT increase market liquidity.  It increases the risk of market congestion and electronic failure.
2. Flash Trading is nothing more than blocking your opponents quotes, by inserting your own quotes, at a rate of several thousand per second.
3. The stated objective of Flash Trading is to exploit market movement.  The reality is that it distorts the market by stuffing  false quotes that are then effectively abandoned.  It's illegal.
4. It's another example of the markets being rigged.
5. HFT is a prime front-running scam.
6. The sheer volume of HFT is intended to put it beyond regulatory supervision.

So why is this relevant to fags? Simple really.  One reason is financial, the other reason is geo-political.

Financially, any fag with a net worth is nervously watching the markets -  particularly those fags in Asia with mandatory provident funds or superannuation funds. Their retirement savings are in the market being "professionally" managed (note the quotes) by "experts".  Effectively, the fags with the savings have become reluctant investors in the market, handing over their hard earned cash to cocaine-snorting fuckwits to play with, churn, suck commissions from - and now, Flash Trade.

With world financial markets on a knife edge, the last thing Asia needs, is a white method of scammy trading that is nothing more than a fast paced trap and flashy toy.

Geo-politically, whites hate Asians.  They won't say it publicly but they hate the idea of some bad-breathed yellow slant or curry-reeking fudge being better educated, worldly and rich.  It's too early to start a war, but Flash Trading is a great vanguard attack to destabilize Asian stock markets.  After all, with the price of gold so high (despite well documented rigging to crush it) why not cause a flash trade triggered meltdown in Asian stocks, force gold-loving Asians to sell gold to cover their margin calls and thereby hammer stocks, the gold price and the retirement funds of Asians?  Pretty cool huh?

Bastards.

Stiffening The Resolve?

Now let's see........every fag's favourite blue pill was introduced as a prescription medication for a defined dysfunction.  Fags definitely had a dick in ensuring that it morphed into a lifestyle candy, as ubiquitous as Smarties.

So ubiquitous, that it crept in as a contractual benefit for a group of teachers in God's Own Country.  Apparently tax-funded Viagra was part of their health insurance plan and now the Teachers Union is bitching to re-instate it after it was deleted in 2005 as a cost saving measure.  This is going on at the same time as the same Teacher's Union simultaneously fights hundreds of layoff notices issued to teachers - also as a cost saving measure.  A report in Yahoo! News dated 6 August 2010 entitled Milwaukee teachers fight for Viagra drug coverage sets outs the details.

OK, call FuelMix suspicious, but there's got to be a fag in there somewhere, particularly as the teachers are whining that Viagra's removal from their health plan discriminates against male employees.

Predictably the lawyers for the School Board maintain that Viagra was removed from the health plan because it was being used for recreational sex, and not as a medical necessity.

All of this boggles FuelMix's pretty head.  Don't the teachers have better things to do? Or is it because so many of them in God's Own Country are being caught sleeping with their students that they need chemical enhancement?

These are the teachers who routinely moan that sexual activity amongst students is rampant.  So the teachers take the lead..........by fighting to re-instate Viagra for themselves at taxpayer's expense?

And what about that quaint custom of students giving Valentine's Day cards to teachers?  Should there be a little blue something slipped in there too? How about bribing the teacher with V in return for better grades?

And what about pedophile priests?  Should they sue their diocese and pray for Viagra to be in their health plan?

All this time, when FuelMix heard teachers wanting to improve performance, he assumed it was the student's.

Gym Bream

A fitness chain in God's Own Country has started hosting cocktail hours, sponsored by the Swedish vodka brand Svedka, after its intense boot camp training sessions.This is according to a report in the New York Times dated 22 August 2010 entitled Gym Mixes Vodka With Fitness

The locations are in New York, Chicago and Miami.  How interesting.  All 3 cities are currently having major budget problems and no doubt brainstorming for innovative ways to raise municipal and state revenue.  Presumably, the fitness chain would have applied and paid for, a liquor license renewable at least annually.  Great...!! that's a revenue stream for a broke city and the gym turns trendy by being a licensed bar too!!

FuelMix defies any reader to extrapolate the logic in this statement quoted in the above mentioned report:

“It’s a little weird to serve bourbon or Scotch......Tequila might seem out of control. Vodka seems like the right complement to the gym.” 
-------David Barton, founder David Barton Gym

Hey.....isn't liquor an intoxicating substance like Pot which so many other cities in God's Own Country are just salivating to tax?

And aren't New York, Chicago and Miami major fag ghettos?  And where are the 2 places to find fags? Gyms and Bars !! What a fuckin' Win/Win situation!!  A fag can bet his butt plug that gyms in the ghetto are going to wanna get in on this one.  With Faglands in the West teetering on the brink of economic collapse, fag gyms are just gonna suck customers outta the bars by offering coupons and discounted liquor memberships.  And some fag gyms in Fagland are open 24 hours.

And you know how fuckin' bitchy some fags are?  They're gonna whine to the gym management that they should be able to use the bar DURING their workouts - just like they can go to the gym juice bar....!!!

And you know what else? fag SAUNAS are gonna start squealing to get liquor licenses too!!

Think about it.  Drug fucked ghetto fag shows up at the gym, works out, knocks back liquor, heads to the sauna, tweaks his brains out, fucks, shows up at the sauna bar and gets pickled.  Then fucks his brains out again. Rinse, Lather and Repeat.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......!!! IT'S A RACE TO THE BOTTOM - the fag gyms are gonna compete with fag bars and fag saunas!!  And the fag gyms have more financial muscle coz they're franchised!!  Meanwhile the fag's health is gonna go down the toilet -  and the fuckin' cities (already cutting back on health services) are gonna encourage it coz they need the tax revenue HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......!!
