The homoerotic relaxation of Russian baths

found on sexblo.gs

Once upon a time, no one really questioned what went on in men-only baths, though as this funky old photo shows, it was more than a little...well...GAY. Maybe once upon a time men weren't forced to ask themselves "am I gay?" at every turn. And maybe masculinity was not quite so confusing or difficult when men had the flexibility to enjoy a little same-sex whatever.

So I ask you: in today's age, would New York cops close this joint down? And book these guys as being lewd and lascivious and a bunch of other things?

I'm voting YEP.

Kinda sad.
