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......!!

The Clientele

From FuelMix's point of view, My Way Platinum Sauna ranks as the most overtly racist sauna that he has been to in Very Rich Megacity. It outstrips even Hunter Sauna in that regard.  This has nothing to do with the staff. It's the customers.

Having intially been told by a chink fag on entry that "they don't like foreigner [sic] here", FuelMix simply observes that during the 4 hours that he was there, no other foreigner or white guy appeared.

This is the place for the 20-30 something chink fag.  Most were skinny chink twinks.  Some were certainly muscular jockboy types. In both cases they thought the sun shone out of their ass and they paid to bring their attitude in with them.  They deeply resented having a muscular hot looking foreigner there.  When FuelMix stepped under the shower next to them they turned their backs, when he entered the Steam Room they fled, when he entered the Dry Sauna they fled. When he sat in the Lounges they fled, when he sat down to watch TV they fled, when he entered the little porn lounge at the end of the Dark Room they fled.  When he walked down the Dark Room main corridor they ducked into the rooms until he passed.

Interesting huh?

FuelMix doesn't give a fuck about racism.  He's made of tougher stuff than that. But here's the kicker.  Most of these attitudinal slants weren't getting any action either.  There was no shortage of people there and no shortage of chnks streaming in.  In fact, it was pretty crowded. It was Sunday, which was Nude Day.  Yet the vast majority of the chink fags were propped up against the Dark Room Walls sulking and doing The Fag Swivel with their head if any attempt at eye contact was made. Only one or two of the playrooms were actually being used.

The rest just stood in the corridor taking in Whitney Houston, Michael Bolton, Celine Dion.......[barf x 3].

FuelMix was in no doubt that many of these twink chink fags were highly closeted.  They were being ultra-picky and the vast majority of them were not good looking - even if they had muscles.

Consider this:  Forget the trashy decor and the dismal lighting.  As a physical space, the Wet Area and the Dark Area have awesome potential. Both are utterly wasted on and by these chinks. This is a place whose customers need to be taught a lesson by having it invaded by a large group of hot whites and foreigners totally into raunchy, sleazy, exhibitonistic sex.  And Sunday Nude Day is the perfect time for it.

Pros

• Very discreet location in a side lane, in a pokey beige building;
• Walking distance from Wanchai MTR;
• Impressive Wet Area and Dark Area;
• Steady stream of customers coming in;
  

Cons

• Fucked up and (judging by FuelMix's obsevation in the toilet) drug fucked chink fags;
• 20 - 30 something chinks with major attidude;
• Customers are anti-white and anti-foreign;
• Even when crowded not much action going on;
• Lots of Stand & Model with *tsk* *tsk* noises;
• Awful music;
• Trashy decor;
• Terrible lighting;
• Massive wasted potential;
• Not open 24 hours;
  

Would FuelMix Go Back?

ONLY if he was with a buddy or buddies and guaranteed action.

Decor & Layout 

The impression upon entering and wandering around My Way Platinum Sauna, is one of disorientation.  The place is cluttered with the oddest assortment of furniture, wooden fencing, strip curtains, plastic curtains, bookshelves, ornaments, picture frames, club lighting,  christmas tree lighting.  There's no design aesthetic.  It's a place where bric-a-brac destined for the scrap heap gets a new lease on life and the alert customer begins to suspect this was done on the cheap.  Even if it wasn't, it gives that impression.

The space is huge, certainly bigger than Galaxy and Alexander; and probably second in size to Chaps Sauna in North Point which has 2 levels.

The Lighting

Throughout the premises, the lighting is just appallingly dim - or outrageously garish (check out the metal floored corridor that leads to the Dark Area, with the twinkling ceiling strobes in red, green and blue.  FuelMix swears that their flickering affects neural function.  Which explains why nobody would stand in that corridor).  Let's just say the lighting is a disaster.

Mutliple Entryways

The other thing to remember about My Way Platinum Sauna is that it has multiple entryways to the same place:

• The Wet Area can be entered from 2 directions; 
• The Steam Room has 2 separate doors;
• the Locker Room can be entered from 3 directions;
• the Dark Area can be entered from 3 directions;

Initially, it's confusing, then it becomes insane, particularly while navigating around the furniture clutter and plastic curtains.


TV Lounge, Computer Centre & Toilets

That's the first thing the customer will trip into and the first wave of kitsch-induced clutter nausea hits.  Behind a curtain next to the computers, lurks a tiny blue-lit (!!) toilet with 2 urinals and 2 stalls.  On entering the toilet,  a familiar *click*, *click*, *click* , *click* sound could be heard coming from one of the locked stalls.  Instantly FuelMix realized it was  a fag with a cigarette lighter smoking rock. 

The Locker Room

The Locker Room is nowhere to be seen, until you do a sharp U-Turn in the Lounge and head left through a flimsly screen divider.  The lighting is trash, so forget about looking in the mirror.  At least the lockers were white in colour and a decent size, so a customer could actually find their stuff.

The Wet Area: Showers, Steam Room, Dry Sauna

To the Left of the Locker Room is  is the showpiece of My Way Platinum Sauna. The Wet Area is impressively huge blue oval with large shower heads with lousy shower pressure. And there's that whole blue lit thing going on too.  There are also showers in a darker corner near the Steam Room.  Theoretically, the showers are a place to check people out - if you can get used to the lighting.

The Steam Room has 2 separate doors.  It's large, rectangular, with benches in alcoves and plenty of standing room for fun and games.  Heats up nicely and is very clean.  The annoying feature are the partitions which have a funny sharp point on them.

The Dry Sauna is also large and rectangular with a long bench along one side.  Again, heats up nicely and has potential.

The Lounges

To the Right of the Locker Room are 2 Lounges, split down the middle. One has a large flat screen TV.  Other than the fact that they both continue the indiscriminate design aesthetic - mentioned in Design & Layout above -  there's not much more to say.

Both of the Lounges have curtained entry into the Dark Area.  One corner of the TV Screen Lounge merges with that cerebrally disturbing corridor with the flickering strobe lights.  You have been warned.



The Dark Area

This is large but inconsistent.  Effectively, it's built around a 3-sided rectangle.  Once that's figured out, it's a cinch to navigate. 

There are plenty of playrooms with the usual condiments - but NO MIRRORS.  However, some have a panel which is a one-way spy mirror to allow voyeurs in the next room , or even in the corridor to gawk at the action.

The playrooms are inconsistent because some have floor mattresses while others have a large raised vinyl bed with a peep screen and a small LCD screen showing gay porn.

At the far end of the Dark Area is a small porn TV lounge with a large, slightly raised vinyl mattress for group fun.  Jap porn seemed to be the order of the day in there.

Just beyond the small porn lounge, is another dark alcove which leads into a narrow communal play area - totally dark.

Introduction

"They don't like foreign guy here....." whispered a chink fag to the still fully dressed FuelMix, as FuelMix fiddled with his locker key, moments after entering.


FM:  Who's "they"?

Chink Fag:  (gesturing to the hordes of naked scowling glaring chinks) Them.

FM:  Tell them to leave.


Right off the bat, it was clear that FuelMix was an unwanted commodity in this chink-stuffed twink and (occasional) muscleboy joint.  The nasty twitters and venom were already spewing as clusters of chinks stared at FuelMix undressing.  Being hot, cute and muscular was not gonna help his case, even if Sundays was Nude Day.

Never to be put off by racism, FuelMix quietly sang the chorus of the Scissor Sisters track, "Sex And Violence". Then he turned full frontal to face the music.............

The fascinated reader is referred to the continuing segments in this series, which will be uploaded shortly.

Don't bother relying on the local fag rags to give the 411 on this joint.  They either mis-spelt the name of the building, or fucked up the telephone number, or both.  It was a great start.

Getting There

Take the MTR Island Line to Wanchai station.  Follow the signs to Exit A4.

Exit A4 emerges onto the South side of Hennessy Road.  Face RIGHT and starting walking eastwards on Hennessy Road.  Wanchai as a district, is very local and very authentic.  Carry on walking straight down Hennessy Road until reaching the first cross street, which is Fleming Road.

Cross Fleming Road and continue walking straight along Hennessy Road until you see the Caltex gas station.  This is the junction of Hennessy Road and Johnston Road.  Effectively, Johnston Road ends there and Hennessy Road continues along the tram lines.  So, use the pedestrian crossing and continue walking eastwards along Hennessy Road, parallel to the trams.

The next cross street will be Heard Street.  Carry on walking straight.

No here's where it gets a little tricky.  As authentic as Wanchai is, it's also very crowded, festooned with neon signs and signboards, somewhat non-descript and a tough spot to point out any urban landmarks. After crossing Heard Street, the best that FuelMix can suggest is to start reading the street numbers on the buildings along Hennessy Road(if you can find them).


Why?.......because Kuo Wah Building, Number 340 Hennessy Road, is actually in a fuckin' side lane, that's why.  The local fag rags helpfully missed that small fact.

It's a beige building with a pokey little entrance.  Get in and look for the pokey little elevators on your left.  Hit the 4th Floor.

On reaching the 4th Floor, there's a curious brownish mosaic mural of amorous men.  The door to My Way Platinum is on your left.

Ring the door bell, get buzzed in, the attendants speak English (entirely unnecessary as the fascinated fag reader will shortly discover in subsequent posts in this series), pay coin and enter.

This in from a reader:

Hiya, just wanted to send a quick update to your otherwise accurate review of this place.  They've changed the layout slightly.  The loft area which also used to have lockers is now a TV lounge.  Quite comfy.  The lockers have been moved downstairs with the rest of the lockers.  Unfortunately they now block the view from the living room of guys changing. Rats.  The free cakes, tea and soft drinks are pretty tasty.


Overall, I quite like this sauna.  It's a quiet, elegant place to escape.  Got some action too !

With This Ring 3

Woohoo!!  Fags from the Not-So-Golden-State in God's Own Country are shrieking and farting with delight.  The infamous Proposition 8 (a ballot that passed whereby marriage was defined as a union between a man and a woman) has been declared unconstitutional by a (gay) Federal Judge.  See the report in the Los Angeles Times dated 4 August 2010 entitled, "Ruling Against Prop. 8 Could Lead To Federal Precedent On Gay Marriage"

The Judge's 136 page decision, right now the porn-du-jour of every fag claiming to have a "right" and a social conscience, is being studied and will no doubt form the basis of an appeal that ends up at the Supreme Court, who would probably prefer that it didn't come their way.

Briefly, the Judge's reasoning was that there was no state interest in differentiating between opposite-sex and same sex unions (FuelMix agrees, subject to his comments below); Proposition 8 violated the principle of equal protection and non-discrimination (FuelMix says probably); there was no rational basis for excluding fags from marriage (FuelMix says strictly speaking, "Yes", but there are other considerations why fags should avoid "marriage"); that the evidence showed compellingly that the only impediment to fag marriage was on religious and moral grounds.

Amen.

This is what FuelMix has been bitching about in his previous posts on Gay Marriage.  The institution of "Marriage" is the exclusive turf of The Morality Militia.  It boggles FuelMix's pretty head why fags would knowingly trip into this minefield, when they could have a Separate-But-Equal legal regime via Civil Union or Domestic Partnerships - and The Morality Militia couldn't touch them.  Legal challenges aside, fags are attempting to commit Faggotry to a never-ending morality war in which the same arguments will be re-hashed for generations.

FuelMix thinks that's irresponsible.

Further, FuelMix has trouble fully understanding the Judge's remark that ".....domestic partnerships exist solely to differentiate same-sex unions from marriage". So what...? For the last 30 years the political agenda of fags has been to differentiate themselves as a separate and distinct culture.  From a philosophical and political point of view it just makes no sense why fags should now be clamouring to merge into the very cultural values from which they fought so hard to distinguish themselves. 

Nobody has yet satisfactorily explained to FuelMix why Separate-But-Equal is inferior to "marriage".  That's why FuelMix is fazed by the Judge's other remark that marriage is "culturally superior".

FuelMix is prepared to stick his cock out and predict the following:

• Very few fags will actually "marry" or enter into a "domestic partnership"  Most will be lesbians.  The fag lifestyle is simply not structured for meaningful commitment.  It is based on anonymity, shallow compliments and deceit. For fag marriage to take off, it will require a tectonic shift in generally accepted fag behaviour and fag values.  For example, is the monthly joint grocery budget going to include amphetamines?  How many guys can each of them fuck on Boys Nite Out?  Who's gonna help little Johnny with his New Math in the evenings when a fag needs his beauty sleep for the after-party? And when Johnny turns 18 and brings home those college cuties, is it permissible to hit on them or invite them to a "party"?

• Many of the fags who marry or enter into domestic partnerships, will be gold diggers with a history of escorting and lap dancing.  Expect a whole new slew of sensational tabloid journalism and Reality TV shows themed around a "Gay Bachelor" eeewwww......

• If the average ghetto fag embraced "marriage" or"domestic partnership" with the fervour he claims to have, the Fag Ghetto, already teetering economically, would collapse.  No more cruising in the parks, no more hanging out at Starbucks tyring to make eye contact with the gym hottie, a curtailment of sauna activities, bars and raves, the obligation to account for one's movements and expenditure, telling the truth (gasp....), showing up as promised, not changing mobile phones to avoid taking calls...............And the whole thing is based on "commitment" HA....!! enough said.

• Those fags that do enter into "marriage" or "domestic partnerships" will be seen as "elitist", "holier than thou" and "smug".  Think FuelMix is exaggerating?  When was the last time a fag passed up an opportunity to be judgmental?  It'll be the start of a whole new gossip circuit - as well as backstabbing attempts to wreck the union out of sheer spite.

• There will be a new breed of "Closet Fags" - i.e. those in a marriage or domestic partnership who choose to say nothing to their peers and may even live separately to keep up the charade.

• A new Fag Ghetto will emerge. This will be a gated community for educated, affluent fags in a stable relationship.  That community will provide the economic support for a new class of shops and services e.g pricier fag restaurants and bars exclusively for couples, couple-themed fag spas and travel agents. Fag elitism will become prevalent.  Resentment will rise as traditional Fagland withers and dies a slow agonizing death.

The Clientele


FuelMix heard anecdotally that with the closure of Towel Club, which was also in the vicinity, some of the muscular hunks now showed up in Action.  FuelMix did not see evidence of this, but is happy to stand corrected if a reader wants to chip in and say otherwise as to when these dudes would front up.


The clientele at the time FuelMix was there were mainly office chinks in their 20s and 30s with sort of average bods.



The Verdict

Unfortunately, Action suffers from intense attitude - as it did when it was Hunk.  It's comparable to the rancid attitude in ABC.  It's actually pretty laughable, coz those fags aren't getting any.... "ACTION !!!" ....while FuelMix shows up after a year and gets serviced in the Steam Room, The Showers and the Porn Lounge.  Yep....Life is good, although it ain't fair.

But the truth of the matter is, the vibe one puts out is the vibe one gets,  Put out attitude, you get it. Put out "Come and eat me coz I have the sweetest protein shake u ever swallowed", you get to leave with a smile on your face and the adoration (and mobile phone numbers) of grateful fags who satisfied their hunger and are now offering to buy (FuelMix) dinner on a weekend.

There's also the distinct feeling that Action is the afterthought compared to the 3 other saunas run by the same people.  Yeah it's been renovated pretty extensively, but it still has that slightly lost feel to it.  Basic intelligence in the design appears to be missing: the darkness of the lockers, the fumbling for the light switches in the playrooms, why everything on the hot drinks dispenser is in chink.

That whole "nude" sauna thing ain't new.  They had the same surrender-your-towel-and-get-it-back deal when it was Hunk and there was hardly any action going on then.



Would FuelMix Go Back?

Not in a hurry. Might drop in after a year to see if anything changed.

This feedback from a GWM reader:

Hi FuelMix

Followed your advice to go to Double Sauna............

Went on a Saturday at 11pm and the place was packed with GAMs.  I was the only foreigner.....later another GWM showed up.  The place is well maintained, clean but lacks private rooms (they got around 9 or so...) for the up to 100 people!  What happens is clear, everyone standing around in the corridors  and GAMs seem to like touching and kissing, but nothing else happens.  For such a packed place it was extremely disappointing.  Won't go there again, have to say that places like ABC or Towel Club offer much more action.


Would  be great if you could publish this advice......Double Sauna is really no place for people who want real sex!


Cheers
[Name]

FuelMix says:  Thanks for the feedback.  Published as requested.  FuelMix has the following comments:

1.  What....? No action at all in the Steam Room, Dry Sauna or Showers???

2.  Any other reader - GAM, GWM or Foreign - who's been to Double is invited to add their comment (and to comment on the other gay sauna reviews that FuelMix has done so far).

3. Towel Club went out of business about a month ago.  Agree that Fridays and Saturdays the action was pretty good.  The rest of the week could be pretty dead - which might explain why they went out of business.

4.  FuelMix didn't think much of ABC.  Check out his reviews by going to the Label, "ABC HKG" on the right hand side of the blog.  If you have a recent experience there that would be helpful to other readers, send it in and FuelMix will publish it.

5.  Still not clear to FuelMix just how many GWMs and foreigners actually go to Double - or whether the place is a ghetto for chink fags. Not that it's bad or good.  It's just the way it is.

6.  As for hordes of GAMs just standing around, that pretty much occurs in nearly every sauna in this town. Can certainly understand your frustration.

7. Suggest you also check out Alexander in Mong Kok.  Same MTR Station as Double, different Exit.  See FuelMix's reviews of Alexander Sauna by going to the Label, "Alexander HKG" on the right hand side of the blog.

8.  Could also try Central Escalator in SoHo. Best times to go on weekdays are between 2pm and 7pm. Saturday afternoons and Sunday afternoons also have potential.  But be warned - they only have 4 play rooms and there can be a long wait for some private action.  Very mixed crowd of GAMs, GWMs and Foreigners. FuelMix does not really like the place as it's looking kinda old and in need of renovation. Hey come to think of it, that's a pretty accurate assessment of its GWM clientele as well HAHAHAHAHAHA....!!!

The Decor

Think "Dark, Black & Clubbish" - at least FuelMix thinks that's what they want their customers to think.  After all, they renovated the place.

The reality on entering the premises?

Fetishly artsy, black-on-black, irritatingly twee, lit by candles with an annoying soundtrack.  That was the situation before the renovation too.  Let's get one thing perfectly straight. Black floors, black walls and black lockers require half-decent lighting. They couldn't have painted the inside of the lockers a lighter colour?  Anything black that goes into the lockers essentially goes into a Black Hole.  That's really intelligent.......... Don't bother looking for it. Just grope for it.

Question Number 1: how come the Locker Room area in Alexander, ABC and Gateway are so well lit?  Is Action the branch office that didn't get all the funds?

The Layout And Facilities

The Lockers - The lockers are on the left and a gay man with a hot body like FuelMix can be and was, watched by one of the Front Desk staff and a couple of customers in the Lounge while undressing.  Just don't get too excited.  Watching with attitude is definitely the name of the game here.  It's either Stand & Model or Sit & Model.

There's a cushioned bench and a lit vanity area in white with a small sink next to the Lockers. It's adequate.

The Wet Area - Showers, sauna and toilets are to the left of the Lockers, just beyond the entry Lounge. Beware the drain grate that runs the length of the showers and the sauna. It hurts the feet like hell. The showers are fun - oddly lit at floor level like a wet disco.  Since the renovation, the number of shower  heads have been reduced to 4.  2 are lit and 2 are behind a dark corner.  Water pressure is fine and FuelMix got action in the showers from an admirer.

The Dry Sauna - What used to be showers next to narrow windows looking out over the entry Lounge, have been replaced with a tiny dry sauna that sits about 4 people. The heating is fine and it could have action potential.  Peering thru the windows could be fun.

The Steam Room -  Next to the showers is the Steam Room. It seats 9 and FuelMix means that literally. There are 9 moulded seats in there and some floor space. Very steamy and hot, just like a Steam Room should be and FuelMix got some group action in there too.

The Toilets - 2 cubicles, urinal and a sink, moderately clean, nothing to rave about.

The Lounges - There are actually 4 Lounges in Action sauna:

(1) The Entry Lounge in Black that surveys the Locker Area and a wall mounted TV.  That TV is next to a corridor that leads to the other 2 Lounges.

(2)  Computer and Food Lounge - (prior to the renovation this was a communal play and porn area).  Now it's a respectable orange-coloured lounge with a row of computer screens, free drink dispensing machines, snacks and the ubiquitous bananas.  It's a pretty comfortable place to chill.

(3)  The Main TV Lounge - large flat screen TV, sofas and mags. Deathly quiet.

(4)  The Porn Lounge in the Dark Area with big mattresses, pillows and bench seating, showing a variety of porn.


The Dark Area - a corridor adjacent to the computer lounge and the TV lounge leads into the Dark Area. There's a small black seating area with 2 black chairs looking at a porn screen. Guys will cluster there and model. Again, expect attitude.  The Dark Area consists of the Porn Lounge and the Playrooms.

(1) The Porn Lounge - A small hallway from the black seating area leads into the Porn Lounge mentioned above.  This is actually a pretty decent sized play space.  Being the rampant exhibitionist, FuelMix really appreciated the servicing he got here by 2 guys while the motley chink attitudinal freaks stood and watched in stony silence.

(2)  The Play Rooms - Here's where the "Nude" Sauna bit in Action's advertising kicks in.  There are 10 playrooms - 8 standard sized, 1 with a sling and 1 with a sort of bench a fag can stand back and lean on, or sit on, to receive a blow job or even rimming.  Play rooms have floor mattresses, lube and condom dispensers.

To get into the Play Rooms, the fag has to hand over his towel to another attendant, whose sole purpose in life is to stare at cocks and hand out a plastic tag with a number. Retrieve the towel on leaving the area.

 Question Number 2:  why is it even necessary to do that? Neither Alexander, ABC or Gateway have such a stupid rule.  The only one that used to stipulate nudity in the Dark Area weekly was Towel Club and they went out of business..........

OK...the dark room has potential too, since it leads into a cluster of little private play rooms. But....the mirrors  in the play rooms have a huge distortion factor. It's like seeing a grotesque image of oneself in the fairground. In fact, ALL the fuckin' mirrors in Actions' play rooms have massive distortion.

Oh and one more thing.....good luck finding the light switches in them rooms.  FuelMix was so pissed off that something so elementary could have been made so difficult, that he's not going to tell his readers where they are.

The Clientele, The Verdict, Would FuelMix go back?  See Action 4 faggot.

Getting There

Action gay sauna is the sauna operated by the same company that runs 3 other gay saunas in Very Rich Megacity, namely Alexander in Mong Kok, ABC in Tsim Sha Tsui and Gateway in Wanchai It's located on Hennessy Road, in between Wanchai and Causeway Bay.  It's easily  accessible by MTR.

However given the massive density in that area, it's easy to miss the actual building in which Action sauna is located. The trick is to take Exit B at Causeway MTR station that'll come out on Hennessy Road. On exiting the MTR station, face to the RIGHT and walk down Hennessy Road - TOWARDS a flyover which you can see, if you're facing the right way.

That flyover is Canal Road and passes over public toilets. (the male one is extremely filthy yet very cruisy at all hours of the day and nite, even though there are attendants there). Assuming you're not sidetracked by the Toilet, cross Canal Road and walk straight, keeping your eyes peeled for a branch of the Hang Seng Bank, which will be on your right.

When you see it, look for a building with a narrow entrance and staircase a few steps beyond the bank.  On  one side of the entrance, is the sign for "ACTION". Climb the stairs and take the elevator to the 1st Floor.

The entrance is directly in front of the elevator.  Ring the bell and get buzzed into the Reception Area to be greeted by a grinning attendant.  Pay coin and enter.

FuelMix had previously reviewed this gay sauna in September 2008 and July 2009 when it operated under the name "HUNK". At the time, FuelMix was not impressed and said he would not go back.  Following a name change and a renovation, he decided to publish an up to date review in the interests of fairness and accuracy.

So....what about the layout and facilities?  See Action 3 coming shortly.
