WHY NOW?
Our curated spaces and mindful programming will amplify well-being, personal growth, and community connections – deliberately addressing the life-threatening loneliness epidemic currently affecting more than half of all men.
Gay men have fewer places to meet, touch, flirt, relax, and feel at home than ever before. Meanwhile, outdated laws from the 1980s and 1990s still restrict what a bathhouse can look like—rules written long before PrEP, PEP, DoxyPEP, and our modern understanding of sexual health.
These laws don’t reflect who we are today.
They limit our ability to build spaces that support wellness, connection, creativity, and grounding.
It’s time to move forward.
OUR VISION
We imagine a bathhouse built for the lives we actually live now—a place where erotic play and community care live side by side.
Music, comedy, discussions, and facilitated gatherings where men can explore joy, meaning, identity, healing, and growth.
A modern bathhouse could include:
• Erotic spaces
Saunas, darkrooms, play zones, private rooms—designed with dignity, safety, and pleasure at the center.
• Social spaces
A real restaurant. A bar. A lounge where men can talk, flirt, and make friends without rushing.
• Entertainment & Community spaces
Music, comedy, discussions, and facilitated gatherings where men can explore joy, meaning, identity, healing, and growth.
• Wellness spaces
Massage, bodywork, quiet zones, and partnerships with organizations offering medical, mental, and spiritual support.
In short: a place where gay men can be fully alive—in body, in heart, in community.
OUR WORK
1. Reforming Local and State Laws
We’re pressing for changes at the City, County, and State levels so modern bathhouses can legally exist. Our goal is simple: update the rules to match today’s realities and today’s science.
2. Building Coalition Power
We’re bringing together community leaders, health experts, activists, business owners, and citizens who believe gay men deserve dignified spaces.
3. Educating the Public and Policymakers
We’re producing clear, accessible information on sexual health, community wellbeing, and what modern bathhouse culture can offer.
4. Offering a Blueprint for the Future
We’re laying out what a 21st-century bathhouse could look like—safe, grounded, connected, and deeply human.
