Something for everyone
Well, not everyone. I think half the population may not make it through the door.

Cruising with Al Pacino is like that. It was filmed in these places with many of these men as extras, just before the community was decimated.

Yuggh. My college was across the street from the St Marks Baths, which was the East side version of the same thing.According to rumors, it was horrifyingly skanky inside, and I suspect a few of my classmates might have visited. Yes, ground zero for AIDS.
I’m reminded of a scene from Orange is the New Black.
Larry: Dad, why did you bring us to a gay bath house?
Howard: It’s a nice place. It’s clean. A schvitz is a schvitz.
[moaning from the others]
Howard: I had a Groupon.
Larry: Aaaah.
