Received from a reader today: 

Hi FuelMix,

I went to My Way 2 weeks ago (first time on a Saturday midnight).  I hate those skeleton and Halloweenish features and they should have taken those fitness posters down - coz I felt weird seeing them (that was to me). 

The dark area was large and well-designed in terms of passageways (one can play hide-and-seek there).  I found the "Multiple Entryways" delightful. 

As for clients, mostly fit Chinese (me excluded) and 2 whites were there.  I heard there was a bit of group action among the Chinese (that would not necessarily mean the Chinese shunned the whites - it's more like the whites were mature type whilst the Chinese were 20s or early 30s).  In terms of other provisions, free toothbrushes were provided - that was the first I saw it among other HK saunas. 

I think the place is not bad after all.  As for clientele and attitudes, don't you find that it's more or less the same in every HK sauna?  People want to have fun - that's why they go to saunas.  People see handsome guys but hold off taking any action in the belief that a more handsome guy would come.  In the end, people leave with not much action.

FuelMix says:

Yeah…. My Way does provide free toothbrushes and free razor blades.  Don’t recall seeing the toothpaste or the shaving cream. 

HHmm....so whites do show up then....?  Maybe a wider age range of whites should give it a try and report to the blog.  

You've also alluded to the Stand And Model stupidity at My Way which was more pronounced than at other saunas.  There is group action right at the very end of the Dark Area - in the newly expanded Darkest part near the small video room.

“C’mon FuelMix, let’s go check out My Way Platinum…!” said the peripherally acquainted fag whom FuelMix had run into on the streets of Wanchai.  “I’ve had a tiring day and I need to de-stress heheheheheh……….” He winked lasciviously while blowing a kiss.

“Why there…..!!??” shrieked FuelMix, slightly aghast.

“Well I figure you haven’t shown up there for a while and neither have I.  Let’s go see what’s happening …….and I know you don’t wanna go to Gateway or QQ Fitness……so what other choice is there around here since Towel Club folded?

“HHHmmm….” thought FuelMix, “he has a point.  “A blog update is probably in order”.

On a Wednesday evening around 7pm entry to My Way Platinum was HK$130.00.  The space is very large but extremely cluttered.  It looked even more cluttered since FuelMix did his earlier reviews.  There is no design ethos to speak of.  There’s just………. well……..clutter………. augmented by hundreds of pictures on the walls of hunky Oriental guys and beaded curtains.  The décor is fully capable of driving a person nuts.  The management thoughtfully added to the clutter by hanging a skeleton in the Locker Area plus Halloween decorations all over the place.

The original second lounge, which was also the TV lounge, no longer exists.  That space has been turned into an extension of the Dark Area, with corridors and additional private and communal play spaces.  Navigate this additional space and tucked away at the end, is a re-designed second lounge with a flat screen TV and wide divan seating for groups.

In a nutshell, My Way Platinum doesn’t score for design or intuitive layout (compare Club Houzz), but kudos for a very large, clean Dark Area and the impressive Wet Area. They are still the highlights of this place………..

Which is more than can be said for the clientele – predominantly 20- something chinks - and there were a lot of them mid- week.  The place has no difficulty drawing them in.  There were also guys in their 20s and 30s that used to haunt Towel Club.  Admittedly some of the clientele in My Way that evening  were pretty muscular, but 99.99% of the general clientele had the attitudinal allure of a nasal drip.

That’s the biggest let down of this place.  It’s precisely that attitude that is guaranteed to breed the next generation of emotionally fucked-up fag, trying so hard to look hot and fierce.

And boy………these 20 something fags smoke like there’s no tomorrow.  And for some of them, there probably won’t be.

Really, what this place needs is a tsunami of gay invaders from places like Alexander, Central Escalator and Club Houzz.  My Way has the right play spaces, but totally the wrong attitudinal clientele.  What those  self-proclaimed pretty boys need is a good shock.

No Nigga Thugz

It was a hot and humid night in Very Rich Megacity as FuelMix swept into the University of Fag Bar (pending accreditation) to take the roll call of the lost, the losing and the libidinous.

Nearby, a Banana chink and a nondescript white fag were bemoaning the lack of hunky, muscular nigga fag thugz in Very Rich Megacity. FuelMix thought of a number of correct – and politically incorrect - reasons why that might be so:

• Ghetto niggas in God’s Own Country are located halfway around the world from Very Rich Megacity. Their ghettos are different to the ghettos of Fagland. The nigga ghettos really are ghettos.

• Getting from there to here would be expensive. Many are jobless and don’t even have a passport. Other than welfare, they milk their cash from theft, muggings, small time extortion rackets, sale of stolen goods, drug dealing, whoring, pimping and making porn on the down-low.

• Nigga fag thugz live on the down-low. Many won’t even admit to sucking cock or eating ass, even though their faces are visible on nigga fag thug porn.

• On the plane ride over to Very Rich Megacity, nigga thugz would panhandle the white passengers for spare change.

• Whatever cash a nigga thug makes is blown on guns, bling, booze, drugs, pimping their rides, fucking niggarettes for free, fucking white bitches for cash and buying flat screen TVs they can shoot at. A nigga without his gun is like a nigga without his cock. Both are primed to fire several times a day.

• Even if a nigga thug arrived in Very Rich Megacity, where would he stay? Chinks are notoriously racist when it comes to renting out apartments – and let’s face it, niggas smell more than others. Not that it’s bad, they just do.

• There’s already a nigga ghetto in downtown Very Rich Megacity – packed with Ghanians and Nigerians who buy up second hand mobile phones by the truck load to re-sell them in Africa. They’re here on legitimate business.

• What skills does the average nigga fag thug from God’s Own Country have (other than the ones listed above)? Most of them don’t speak comprehensible English and nobody in Very Rich Megacity cares to speak ebonics.

• Possession of a firearm without a license is illegal in Very Rich Megacity. The Police here are very strict about that. The moment a nigga  thug revealed he was packing heat, he’d be shot dead.

• Nigga thugz in God’s Own Country make cash from selling false IDs. Here in Very Rich Megacity, there is a standard electronic ID Card with a microchip. By law it has to be carried at all times. It’s the only acceptable proof of ID. The Police can, and do, stop anyone at will to inspect their ID Card. The nigga thug runs when he sees Police. Another reason to be shot dead.

• Nigga thugz like to steal cars. There are tons of flash cars in Very Rich Megacity. Only thing is, the thieving nigga thug would have to compete - violently - with the Mainland Chinese triad syndicates who have a complete system of shipping cars (and presumably body parts) for disposal on the Mainland. Ditto for drug dealing.

• Nigga thugz luuv to rob 24 hour convenience stores. There are lots of 7-11s and Circle Ks here in VRM – including one that is so infested with African niggas that it’s like a cafeteria for them. It’s a nigga haven and any nigga thug from God’s Own Country who tried to rob it would be killed - by other niggas. That 7-11 is where the African niggas do their business deals 24/7 to export second hand mobile phones.

• It’s almost impossible to find a nigga in any other 24 hour convenience store in this city. So if one walked in and tried a stick-up…… where would he run and hide?

• There’s only a basic welfare system in Very Rich Megacity. Nigga thugz from God’s Own Country, for all their macho bravado and 10 inch cocks, cannot survive without sucking on the nipple of the state.

• Accusations of racial profiling when arrested wouldn’t work here.

• Nobody here gives a shit about Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson.

So, the reason there ain’t ghetto nigga thugz from God’s Own Country here in Very Rich Megacity, is because life would be too hard for them – and damn funny for the rest of us to watch.

The Whore's Choice

At dusk, at the end of a long day, FuelMix was hanging out to dry on a park bench in the middle of Very Rich Megacity. The song of the crickets was surging and ebbing, the warm breeze was wafting through the trees.

The huge urban park, is to some extent a faggy location, although it doesn’t figure prominently in the fag guidebooks. 

While FuelMix was chilling, he became aware of a nondescript middle aged dude lurking nearby. The gaydar went on, and looking around, FuelMix realized he was the only one in the vicinity – which explains why the middle aged fag had his hands in his pocket, rubbing and squeezing something. 

FuelMix sighed. He really was not in the mood for a proposition, but middle aged fag was moving closer – and fast. 

Middle aged fag arrived at FuelMix’s bench and cut to the chase: he was looking for a hustler and was prepared to pay good money. FuelMix smirked. It wasn’t the first time he’d been offered cash. Sitting in his custom made suit and J.M. Weston shoes, FuelMix apparently looked like the epitome of hustler elegance. 

FuelMix politely declined the offer, smiled and turned away. But middle age fag was persistent claiming that cash alone was sufficient for a deal and that FuelMix should immediately come to his hotel room where 50% would be paid immediately and the rest, with a hefty tip, after the deed. 

FuelMix felt his temper rising at the audacity and stupidity of middle aged fag’s failure to take “No” for an answer the first time around. So turning to the idiot, FuelMix asked 2 questions:

1. What makes you think I’m a hustler?
2. What makes you think I’m interested in you?

Fag’s response was that FuelMix was the only one there and that he “looked like one”. Fag then increased his offer of monetary compensation by 20%, quoted the name of a nearby 5 star hotel and took out the electronic key card as proof that he was kosher. 

FuelMix replied by stating he was already familiar with the beds in that hotel and reiterated his refusal to accept fag’s offer. Fag increased the offer by 10%. 

FuelMix declined again, got up and walked away. Fag muttered abuse, calling FuelMix a whore who couldn’t deliver. 

“Interesting”, thought FuelMix, “I would have respected him more if he’d called me a whore who wouldn’t deliver”.

Deliberate Or Stupid ?

With increasing frequency, FuelMix is seeing fags posting online ads saying that they are, or are looking for a “caucasion” [sic] 

At first, FuelMix thought this was just a stupid typo on the part of the fag placing the ad. The correct spelling is “Caucasian”. But there was always this nagging doubt that the fag was being deliberately devious. 

So, on a whim FuelMix punched in “caucasion” on Google and found the Urban Dictionary site. Now, straight up, the site does not claim to be a traditional dictionary, but describes itself as “a slang dictionary with your definitions”. 

Below is a user’s definition of “caucasion”: 

How dumb people (usually posting in online personals) spell “Caucasian”. Usually white men or women trying to exclude nonwhites. The term is often misspelled because these people think it’s unlikely that “asian” to be contained inside a term meaning “white people”. 

“Whoa!” though FuelMix “I’m not alone in my suspicions”. 

In case fags didn't know, "Caucasian" means from the Caucasus Mountains of Central Asia.  That race of people spread West and East.  It includes Iranians (Iran means "Land of the Aryan" - tell that to the "white supremacists"), Turkish, Kurdish, Iraqi, Syrian, Jordanian, Lebanese, Arabs, Greeks, Italians, Pakistanis, Afghans, Northern Indians.

Big Top Gym And Sauna 8

On weekends and public holidays open 2pm till 10am the next day



Received from a reader yesterday: 

…Now for the bad part, Big Top, it was a Saturday around 5 pm 

First Impressions 

Although the guys at the reception were friendly and asked me where I heard about the place, as soon as I walked in I found it to be a dive.  I don't mind the prying eyes when changing in the locker room, but the narrow corridor to the showers and sauna are too narrow to hang out in. The wet saunas were way too small, the maze was ok but again, you have to see who is going in before you wander in (I know it's par for the course with saunas).  

The so called gym was pathetic, with a bench and hula hoop!! They would be better served turning it into another cruising area.  The lounge area was way too bright and although they had water and a few crackers, certainly no bananas, cake, noodles and you had to ask for a hot coffee cup.  I personally felt uncomfortable holding a mini towel in front of my privates, maybe that's just me. The place just had an old run down feel to it, even though it's supposed to be relatively new.

FuelMix says:  The staff will happily admit that “the gym” is a gimmick.  Actually, Big Top does offer free bananas and cakes too.  Maybe they hadn’t refilled it.  Also on certain days, they offer free noodles or hot dim sum.  They’ll tell you at the Reception when you arrive. 

The Guys 

I don't know what it is, the guys in general had nicer bodies but I finally understood what you meant by the term Fugly! Like I said I don't consider myself an Adonis,  but the guys with lean muscular bodies, their faces were downright hideous, and I don't like to judge looks too much LOL, a few of them looked like Skeletor!  

Even though this is Mong Kok, my cock turned downright soft seeing these guys.  Some of the Asian twinks were chatting each other up.  I sort of fooled around with an OK- looking Asian guy but he had a funky smell and was a bit too aggressive in having me suck his nipples, so I told him I had to shower.  

I hung out a bit, but from the time I came in to leaving there were only about 10 to 12 guys. By the way, all were Asians and no whites. 

The Verdict 

I totally know why they dropped the price to 80 dollars.  There is just NO comparison to the classiness of Alexander.  You get what you pay for.  Although a higher price may be justified in a crappy looking place, the caliber of men in Big Top was flaccid-penis inducing. 

Major disappointment in terms of quality of place and of men.  I felt I had to take a shower when I got home because it had an icky feel to it.

FuelMix says:

The price drop to HK$80.00 is currently valid till 30 November 2011.

You’re correct in pointing out that the corridors to the showers are too narrow to hang out in.  

For some bizarre reason, they recently added more partitions and alcoves in the Dark Area which made it narrower and claustrophobic.  As a result, a customer is now just inches away from a massively bright porn screen that when looked at, blinds the ability to see anything in the Dark Area or outside.

Unlike say, Alexander or Galaxy, where guys regularly come through the door one by one or as buddies, Big Top fills up in spurts. 3 or 4 random guys can show up at once, followed by another 2 or 3 random guys a few minutes later.  It also gets extended periods where nobody is checking in and the people inside are just hanging around.  That’s why the staff go to great lengths to assure customers that guys do show up.

It certainly attracts muscular Asian guys.  Whether they’re good looking is in the eye of the beholder:

• It appears that on Saturdays, the muscular guys show up later in the evening from about 9pm, looking to stay till around 2am the next day.
• They are also around on Sunday afternoons from about 5pm.
• FuelMix also heard that the muscular guys show up around 6pm on weekdays and stay till around 11pm.
• Again, it’s all in the timing which can never be accurately predicted.

On balance, FuelMix is somewhat less thrilled with this place than initially, due mainly to the silly changes in the Dark Area, but is still keeping an open mind.

Nocturnal Holding Pattern

Before snuggling under his duvet for the night, FuelMix does a quick scan of his e-mail and a lap of shame taking in the major fag chat sites and message boards to see what fags worldwide are up to. It can be quite illuminating.

FuelMix noticed that from 11pm onwards, fag chat sites in a bedtime zone, are heavily populated with drug-fucked fags making no secret of the fact they’re on crack, crystal, cocaine, weed, ketamine or any combination thereof.

Initially, FuelMix thought that the phenomenon was limited to those fags in the West Coast. Out of curiosity, FuelMix checked those chat sites in the Central and East Coast during their bedtime hours, from 11pm onwards local time, and observed the same thing.

Crossing into Europe and logging on around 11pm local time, there it was again: chat rooms filled with drug fucked fags purporting to look for action.

Realizing he was onto something, FuelMix logged into fag chat sites in Asia and Australia, timing his entry between 11pm and midnight local time. And there they were: row upon row of fags in a chat room all typing in their profile that they were on some kind of chemical.

As a further experiment, FuelMix got up briefly around 3 to 4 am and logged onto those cities in the same time zone. The drug fucked fags were still there. During the day, FuelMix did the same thing to other cities around the world. And those drug fucked fags were still there, hours later.

And this was during week days. Didn’t those fags work? How much sleep were they getting? Or were they so wired they couldn’t care less?

What is the degree of their cognition? Assuming that one drug fucked fag online actually makes contact with another drug fucked fag online for a real time hook up, how aware are either of them about getting to their destination, of where they are and what they’re doing?

Is FuelMix now to assume that in addition to the smorgasbord of chems which so many fags seem able to afford, that they can now add sleep deprivation to the mix?

What are the long term implications of all of this? And what does it say about fag culture? Has it reached a stage where some drug (whether prescription or illegal) is now a late evening pre-requisite and apparent substitution for sleep?

Is that why so many urban fags look awful in daylight?

From a reader received today:

Dear FIM

Just wanted to say how much I love the insights on your blog, I am visiting Hong Kong from Canada and wanted to check out a few places. I don't know if my reviews are worthy of posting, even if not, I wanted to give you some feedback. I'm visiting from Canada for a few weeks here. 

I have visited two saunas, Alexander and Big Top. I don't have much time and may not get a chance to visit another but I have been sort of a potato queen but the last time I was here six years ago, I went to Galaxy and Game Boy, the latter which had closed, I was really sad because I loved that place! The last time I discovered so many young hunky Asians that I had become much more open minded about being with Asian men. I should say I am 43, Asian, athletic and work out, think I am decent looking but certainly no Adonis, but think I hold up well!

What a contrast in experiences......[between Alexander and Big Top] 

I went to Alexander first.  It was a Friday around 4:30 pm

First impressions: very clean and nice ambience. Loved the cleanliness of the place. The locker area was very well kept, with the staff constantly coming in to clean. The locker area is a bit of a squeeze though, so could be good or bad depending on whom you brush up against! I loved the multiple shower area and the jacuzzi with the waterfall. Very soothing!

The lounge area was also clean and the free water, ice cream, bananas, cake, crackers and noodles was definitely a classy touch. The coffee machine was not working, but the area was nice. The back room maze was dark enough but you basically had to follow someone in whom you wanted to prevented groping from the unwanted. That shower/jacuzzi, locker room, lounge and maze were nicely compartmentalized. The unlimited full size towel exchange was nice.

The Men

A range of ages from 20s to 50s, overall they were slim to a few muscular, Asian except for two whites. Surprisingly not too many very unattractive types, I hooked up with a sweaty muscular Asian who was very appreciative! Never got the chance to hook up with the white daddy, although I find if you miss the chance, your window of opportunity doesn't come again if someone gets to him first! By around 8pm the place was hopping and you couldn't move in the locker room. The guys seemed very civilized and respectful.

The Verdict

Well worth the 130 dollars, I could have stayed longer, there were a lot of places to hang out, I'd definitely go again, looks like they put a lot of care into the design and upkeep of the place. The guys were not bad to look at and polite.

FuelMix says:  OK thanks for the update.

FuelMix Has Written Off Chaps. Will Not Show Up.  
No More Reviews.

(Readers may submit their own reviews)

Received from a reader today: 

It's like I went to the wrong place or it's all a bad prank! I value your reviews highly and went really out of the way for Chaps only to find myself in..... just read below.

Clientele

It was my fault that I needed to go at nonpeak hours. So I didn't blame what I found against the reviews coz' those were the exactly same kind of crowd I met when I went to Ni-Chome and even Big Top at similar times - apparently only out of shape mid 40's goes to sauna at around 5:30-7pm weekdays (I went to Chaps on a Friday hoping it would be different, at least there were twice as many people on the street as any other weekdays, only to find I was wrong.). 

Music

Josh Groban. 

Vibe

About the "oasis" description part, I am not sure which affects the vibe more, the decor or the clientele. I felt exactly like meat in the "meat market" - had hands on my dick and ass right after I stepped into the shower. : ( There was also another occasion where I said politely "sorry" and tapping lightly on the hands around me only resulted the guy humping me like a dog. 

Steam and dry sauna

What almost salvaged my trip - such a paradise and a change of scene when you stepped into two of these "installed" rooms. I like them both and they were how I spent most of my time there. I was also amazed how they felt like blown-up castle squished indoor. That renovation must not be cheap?

Decor

With the exception of the said rooms above looking up-to-date/modern, the rest of place definitely fit the trope of old cliched chinese haunted house. Never have I felt the decor would have such an effect on me as I am neither big on interior design nor visually artsy. But memories of haunted stories and scary movies I had when I was a kid sent chills down my spine when I wandered the dark area hall alone. 

TV

You didn't mention the TV in the dry sauna, which I found to be a very nice touch. Local TV was on in your said Porn Area 2 and in the dry sauna. Not sure if it would be switched to porn at busier times. I was just glad I found something to do while I was there; coz' porn,ironically, might not be a better option in my situation. I probably didn't want to be aroused while surrounded by said visitors above "sharking" around.

Entry

I got charged $138. 

Verdict

I skimmed through your review before I went and I was reading it again to compare my experience with. I would say I completely missed your sarcastic tone when you say "fags should go check it out at least once" the first time i read it. You DID mean it with sarcasm right? Anyway, I just wish now I have never been there. And the trip was so traumatic that I had a lot of new found doubt to my plan to explore Colony as well, despite your good words for it.

FuelMix says:

1.   *sigh*..........a few weeks ago, after a gap of a few months, FuelMix also dropped into Chaps intending to upload a prompt update.  He didn't - in order to cool down having received blatant attitude from the staff on duty.  FuelMix was incensed and figured that since many readers appear to rely on his reviews, it would be more prudent to say nothing until he was completely rational again.

2.   Yeah, there was a hint of sarcasm when FuelMix suggested that "fags should go check it out at least once"..........the decor at the time was blatanty garish and now, is only slightly less so.  We can confirm that there have been some modifications in the shower area (the dry sauna and the steam room are OK), there is a TV screen in the downstairs dry sauna which is way too bright, there are beds for group action in what used to be part of the downstairs lounge area, and there's a small "Dark Room / Romp area" near the private rooms.

3.   As for being a cliched Chinese haunted house...........well, given that the neighbourhood is in a quiet side street of North Point where the premises have been converted into mixed uses, that's hardly surprising.  The buildings dated back to the 1950s.  The Dark Area in Chaps is disappointingly small considering the space they have downstairs.  Also bear in mind that the majority of chink fags prefer groping in the Dark.  It seems to be a cultural thing.  Ask them...........they'll tell you.

4.   As for your trauma, FuelMix has repeatedly said that hitting a gay sauna is like hitting a casino.  You pay your money and you take your chances.  If it's any consolation, FuelMix shares your sense of bewilderment about this place.  When he wrote his earlier reviews, the place appeared to have potential.  When he dropped in a few weeks ago on a Saturday nite, he too was amazed at the high Fugly content of the predominanly chink clientele, with a sprinkling of ugly white guys wandering around to a Josh Groban soundtrack.

5.   The stench of nicotine smoke from the tiny lounge area, wafting into the cramped dimly lit Locker Area was unbearable.  Add to that Fugly fags, a decidedly unsexy vibe, a HK$138.00 entry fee, no free food, a perilously slippery spiral staircase and staff with attitude, FuelMix reached the inevitable conclusion............Attitude from staff automatically kills off any chance of FuelMix showing up there.  

6.   FuelMix has blacklisted Chaps and has written it off as a waste of time and money.

Is Out In ??

This blog’s fascinated readers would probably forgive FuelMix for vomiting every time he sees an effervescent piece of pap, masquerading as reportage, that yet another himbo or “thinking woman’s stud” has confessed to being, or was threatened to be exposed as, a fag.

Most of these silly tabloids do it for profit. But before hissing and spitting venom at them, it should be remembered that the himbo and ‘thinking woman’s stud” also acquiesce to being Outed. There is a huge difference between being Outed As A Form Of Ambush; and Agreeing To Be Outed (usually by way of self-proclamation or the granting of an exclusive interview, carefully negotiated in advance precisely for that purpose).

It used to be the case that Outed As A Form Of Ambush was exactly that. Sort of like a paintball game. Splat!! You’re Hit!! You’re Out!! But not now…….Outing As A Form Of Ambush has morphed into something more genteel, more nuanced, more calculated, more politically correct, more consensual, more engineered to foster healthy debate over the family dinner table…….more Machiavellian in order to keep the sponsors coming.

Sure, the Outed fag might initially squeal, flee, make a tearful admission, or a defiant declaration. But, everybody loves a happy ending (no pun intended) and after a period of reflection, a good talk with the agent, they usually end up supplementing their initial exposure on a day-time talk show or give a prime-time interview in soft focus with plenty of black and white photographs of their apparently idyllic yet tortured childhood “just knowing they were different”.

With very few people having the sperm count to call it for what it is, Agreeing To Be Outed is the name of the New Gay Game. It’s a junket, in the same way that a movie star might make whistle stop tours to promote a film, take questions and wax lyrical about the character they play in it.

So let’s cut the bull. Despite what fags might be reading and led to believe, Out is not In. It’s morphed into something else because it’s commercially expedient, both for the Outer and the Outee. Agreeing To Be Outed is so effective and profitable that increasing numbers of straights are comfortable being described as “ambiguous” or “rumoured to be……….”

Hold On OK ?

It’s an unfortunate by-product of technology that good manners appear to have fallen by the way side. (It’s also kissed good grammar goodbye, but that’s another story).

Fag chatrooms and bulletin boards are notorious for lousy etiquette. From bitching to flaming, to venom to bad mouthing, from duplicitous identities to fake locations - and we haven’t got to the lies yet. (FuelMix can’t speak for the hetero chatrooms since he’s not into pussy and will only eat fish if it’s on a plate).

But all that shitty crassness listed above, are just the more obvious manifestations of basic human courtesy gone awry courtesy of your ISP.

There are more subtle variations, the implications of which are lost on the fag committing the transgressions. Take for example a fag who pvtd FuelMix in a chatroom the other day, dangled the bait of a hookup – then told FuelMix to hold while he took a call on his cell phone.

Realizing that this would be blog material, FuelMix kept the pvt window open. 19 minutes 34 seconds later, the fag re-appeared, said he had to go and abruptly closed the window.

There are a number of possible explanations:

1. The fag got a call from the Men’s Health Center telling him he was HIV and he needed immediate grief counselling;

2. The fag was told he’d been fired from his Friday nite stripper gig at that bar in Fagland (and also needed immediate grief counselling).

3. Mom found his porn collection (and she needed grief counselling);

4. His dealer called saying he had the snow for the fag’s Underwear Party on Saturday nite and threatened to kill him if he didn’t pay.

5. He’d given out his cell phone number to other fags in the chat room and jacked off with them. Having shot his load, who needs to chat anymore or dangle bait?

6. His soon-to-be-ex found out he’s been whoring around and they had a fight via cell phone for 19 minutes 34 seconds.

7. His roommate bailed on him, leaving him unable to pay the rent or the dealer, (especially since he’s just lost the Friday nite stripper gig too and needed the jockstrap tips).

8. His employer found the jpegs on Facebook of him sucking some twink in a toilet and scheduled a meeting with Personnel first thing tomorrow.

FuelMix has said in this blog previously, that every piece of technology makes it easier to lie and to degrade one’s personal manners. Cyber and cell phones are no exception. And that suits the fag perfectly. Lies and poor manners go together. It’s the flawed duality that makes the urban fag believe he’s whole. And why not? Looking around in Fagland he sees everybody else engaging either in lies or poor manners or both, whether on the street, in the bars and in cyber. So it must be perfectly acceptable.

Wrong.

The utter lack of simple good manners in cyber is the most telling part of a fag’s profile, regardless of his quads, his pecs and his bubble butt. Times are changing faster than most fags feel comfortable acknowledging. As the world as you know it collapses, it won’t be your lies, your discourtesy, your quads or your ass that’ll get you through. It’ll be the quality of your human relationships, from the simplest acts of decency to the grandest acts of philanthropy.

That’s right fags. The games you play in cyber are an accurate reflection of the games you play in real life. And that’s why you keep losing.

Are We Straight Yet ?

“The new gay ideal isn't just to be accepted as an 'openly gay' man. We must now strive for further acceptance by being indistinguishable from our heterosexual equivalents. Rather than carve out our own identity, we ape theirs. Now, the new gay norm is the 'straight-actor' with the ultimate compliment being someone not spotting your sexuality.”

-------The Guyliner, “Sorry, ‘Straight-Acting’ Boys, But Gay Stereotypes Exist Despite You…..Get Over It”,Huffington Post, 6 October 2011 

Whether it’s a new gay ideal is debateable but………

One of the desperate antics of Faggotry is the lengths to which fags will go to stress that they are “straight acting, straight looking”. Presumably this is a compensating measure for those times (usually in their childhood and adolescence) when they were singled out for acting and looking somewhat less than “masculine”.  For many, it was probably a painful time.

Now that the fag is all grown up, has a gym membership, tanning salon coupons, overpriced underwear and highlights in his hair or, wears an Armani suit, clenches his jaw to look professional while secretly wearing a cock ring under his boxers, he’ll probably think he’s str8 acting, str8 looking.

What is clear is that fags use this description in 2 ways.  First, as psychological self-medication.  Second, as a weapon against other fags.  It’s actually social apartheid, a self-proclaimed distinction of  assumed heterosexual masculinity.  There are so many online ads clearly stating, “No fems”.  As Guyliner correctly points out, perhaps fags miss the homophobia of days gone by and are more than happy to perpetuate it amongst themselves.  Or now that str8 guys are going metrosexual, perhaps fags see an urgent need to be more “manly”.

FuelMix thinks str8 guys have something to do with it as well.  More and more are exploring or becoming “recreationally gay”.  Whether they call themselves, “str8 but curious”, “mainly str8”, “bi-curious” or “bisexual”, it appears that fags are catering to them by hanging out the shingle of “str8 looking, str8 acting” as bait.  Remember these so-called str8 guys are also bleating that they don’t want fem guys or the curiously worded, “no gay guys”.  Since sucking str8 cock is supposed to be every fag’s fantasy (or so Fagland and Gay Media would like one to believe), a fag claiming to be “str8 looking str8 acting” is attempting to get the str8 guy to compromise.

The bottom line is both the fag and the so-called str8 guy (squirming with his own nomenclature) are dancing cheek to cheek.  The fag is insecure about his masculinity. The str8 is insecure about his sexuality.  In seeking to differentiate themselves, each is perpetuating a stereotype.

Meanwhile as Guyliner points out:

 “The 'fems' or 'queeny' guys are dismissed as out-dated stereotypes firmly on the descent, but it's a myth - they're still everywhere, no matter how much their much butcher brothers choose to deny them”

Memo To Fags 14

To: Fags
From: FuelMix

Hey fags....!! How aware are you of your online surroundings?  Not that much?  Too drug-fucked to care?  Just too fuckin' shabby in your way of living....?  That's too bad..... 'coz you're misssing a real cracker.......

Here's a neat little online trick you can use: Next time you're on a chat room, simultaneously open a window from Craigslist M2M for your local city. When you spy a hottie in the chat room, check to see if he has a simultaneous ad running on CL. You might be surprised at what he won't say in chat, but what he'll happily put up in his ad...............and then you can confront him.......to clarify or explain the difference............

And what will the fag do......?  Aww....c'mon.......you already know what fags do......

5 Days, 5 Saunas

From a reader, received today:

Dear FuelMix,

Big fan of your blog and been meaning to write in, especially as a regular sauna slut (call me HKSS). Blame it on the rain, but this past week I did something I've never done - I visited a different sauna five nights in a row. Thought you'd like a fresh take on Colony, Chaps, Gateway, Club Houzz and Big Top.

1.  Colony (entry $138) - Monday

I visit almost weekly thanks to an avid fuck buddy. Showed up Monday around 8:30pm and saw the usual smattering of 10 or so guys. Ranged from slim office chink to muscular-to-thick. All asian, and most had an air of sophistication about them, although that might have been the surroundings. As you'd guess, the wrap-around balcony draws a few visitors.

The jacuzzi had a couple every now and then, and that's what i'd say is most notable about Colony -I seem to recognize regular fuck buddies and boyfriends who quickly disappear into one of the rooms for extended periods, as my boy toy and I tend to do. The premises remain spotless and management continue to serve up free cake.

I recommend Colony for those seeking a low-intensity crowd, so horned-up visitors be forewarned.  However,I could do without the music: 80's soft pop covers playing on a half-hour loop. They need an updated playlist la.

2.  Chaps ($138) - Tuesday

The place was busier than I expected, although I only pop in once a month. About a dozen guys, all Asian again, similar clientele to Colony but didn't get lots of couples coming in. The relatively new layout with the two beds in the former sitting area downstairs, invites group action, which is what happened soon after I arrived, around 7:30pm on Tuesday, one of their nude nights.

Led by a persistent and charming dude from Chongqing, four of us got entwined and made out across the beds. We somehow wandered into the jacuzzi for more feeling up, and before long, a gymfit local guy and I made our way into one of the private rooms where I fucked him for an hour. As I left at 9pm, I noticed the crowd had held steady, mostly 30-something regular guys who show very little attitude.

3.  Gateway ($130) - Wednesday

This place puzzles me. About two years ago I used to go every few weeks, normally weeknights after work, and found a handsome mix of office types and buff types. Now I stop by only once every few months because that vibe I get is 'over-50 and flabby'. Okay, I’m not exactly Mr Universe but I'm toned and hygienic, which sadly isn't often the case with the guys i meet at Gateway.

Anyway, I arrived Wednesday at 6:30pm and couldn't stay but 90 minutes due to a dinner nearby, but i don't think i missed much. Of the dozen guys I counted, only two were fit and handsome, and one of them was glued to the TV. I struck up a fun conversation with the other hot guy, a fellow 30-something Asian-American who had one of the longest, thickest dicks I've ever seen on an Asian. He told me that Gateway's regular crowd has indeed gotten more mature in recent years, but he likes their lack of attitude. I find the lack of play, boner-shrinking.

4.  Club Houzz ($108) - Thursday

My first time and I loved everything about it: the stylish yet intuitive layout, the unintrusive, downtempo music, and especially the clientele, who numbered 15 when I arrived after 8pm, just as the nude theme got going.

The guys were all Asian and almost without exception were in-shape, with a few who looked like they stepped out of a modeling shoot. As I undressed I got aggressively cruised by a lean and sexy 40-something, which is frankly not a phrase I've uttered before. This guy had amazingly soft skin, a real weakness of mine, so off we went to a room, where we flip-fucked for an hour. We later hit the dry sauna, [ FuelMix says: you must mean the Steam Room.  Club Houzz does not have a dry sauna ] where we were joined by two guys who took turns feeling us up.

Totally spent, we returned to the TV area, where another guy joined our conversation. I liked the place's approachable vibe, which feels edgy without being snooty, unlike my experiences at Double and sometimes Alexander. I'll be back soon!

5.  Big Top ($80, special) - Friday

Finally I paid my inaugural visit to Big Top, arriving at around 7pm, greeted by two staff members who sat nude behind the front desk. They were very friendly and one of them actually followed me into the shower area after I undressed, eager to note that while there were only 5 people in the sauna at that moment, he was certain more would be showing up.

I tried to hide my scepticism, but sure enough, by about 7:30pm, another 5 guys arrived, all better looking than the uninspiring chubsters who were parked in front of the TV and computer terminals when I arrived.

I ended up getting fucked by a total of 3 guys, all of whom were well-built, and as I left at 10:30pm, Big Top started getting a stream of muscle men. Like you, i was given a VIP deal so I'll definitely be back.

P.S. Big Top must have seen your complaint about the flickering lights in the dark area; there was thankfully none going when I visited this past Friday night.

I really hope my short reviews help you and your readers. The pleasure was truly mine!

Cheers,

HKSS  

FuelMix says:  

Whoa.....Hong Kong  Sauna Slut......that is some serious sauna- going.  Well written stuff and definitely worthy of being uploaded in consideration for having fucked your brains out around town - in the interests of slutty journalism of course. Readers will certainly find it useful.

It's worth pointing out to white readers that with the exception of Gateway, the other saunas listed above, openly say that they are white friendly.  Whites do show up in Colony and Chaps, but for some reason, don't show up in Big Top or Club Houzz.  This is surprising since not only are they a few minutes walk from Alexander, they are the 2 newest saunas in town and, as the reviewer above states, they do attract good looking guys. 

Thanks for writing in.

Group Fucks

It's certainly a plausible scenario for the West and, if those bastards had their way, an engineered scenario for the East too.  Those fags who still can't see beyond their dicks need to wake up.  There's a full on hurricane brewing out there and it will hit without warning.  Those white bastards have yet to learn that debt isn't solved by creating.......oh yeah.......more debt.  Truth be told, they don't want to learn.  Debt is very profitable to those who created it.  Their cash flow comes from increased taxes, interest payments and inflation.

Just ask the Squid.

What.......? You fags don't know who the Squid is......?   The hurricane that's brewing is so huge, it could wipe out the Squid.  And the Squid's friends.

You dumb fags should really read FuelMix's post, The Zombies.

Volume: H.E.A.T.

Lower Ground Floor

Central
Hong Kong
MTR: Central  or Hong Kong - any exit leading towards SoHo; or
          Sheung Wan  Exit E2

Tel: 2857 7683
Web: www.volume.com.hk  
Opening Hours: 12 Noon to 12 Midnight every day

This is billed as an upscale cafe, bar and bistro for the gay clientele.  It opened on 25 September 2011 and is in the premises formerly occupied by Volume, a gay bar, which has now moved to a new location.  Both Volume and H.E.A.T. are under the same management.

H.E.A.T. stands for Happiness = Entertainment + Art + Taste.  So obviously, there's some concept thinking going on.  The premises are pleasingly decorated in an understated style.  The bar and the open kitchen within it, are the centerpiece. Menu  is tapas-style stuff.  Not bad at all.  Service is certainly friendly and personable. Alcohol is available too.

The place has a much more laid back vibe than a gay bar, and that's deliberate.  The music is softer. There's a choice of bar seating, high bar table seating, tables and chairs and sofas.  Lighting is pretty good so it's easy to check people out.  It's a place where they'd like customers to linger, drink and nibble on the tapas.

Price Wars

FuelMix has noticed that from today, Action and ABC are offering to let in guys aged 25 and under for HK$50.00.

Double claims to be letting in guys at HK$50.00 from 10pm onwards.

FuelMix doesn't think these price wars are going to end well.

Face Fucking ?

The existence of the Human Papillomavirus in the genitals of men and women is well known. There is no cure for the virus itself (although vaccines such as Gardasil and Cervarix are available), only the diseases the the virus can cause, such as genital warts and cervical cancer.

A slightly sobering article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution dated 4 October 2011, entitled Throat cancers linked to oral sex on the rise, suggests that oral sex can be more hazardous to men than cigarettes.

There appears to be a surge in cases where HPV is linked to cancerous throat tumours in men.  This is particularly hitting men in the 30s - 50s age range with researchers baffled why it isn't hitting women. There appears to be a link between the number of sexual partners and exposure to HPV.

The report doesn't give details about sexual orientation so FuelMix is going to speculate.  The age range at which men are being infected is consistent with what he wrote in his post, The New Menopause?  In that post FuelMix commented on the number of older, married, so called str8 men going recreationally gay or turning full-on gay.

Anecdotally, FuelMix is hearing of the increasing number of middle aged guys hitting the gay saunas.  Some are gay, but many identify themselves as Bi or married or divorced.  From his own - admittedly unscientific - observations in the saunas, FuelMix has watched middle aged guys pig out more than the 20 somethings, usually fuelled on poppers and amphetamines.
