This book represents the best, most educational, and most thought-provoking stories on gay bathhouse culture. The author is a gay Asian male who has written a blog called Bathhouse Blues. He has taken the best stories from that blog and has shared them in this book. These stories originated after the author noticed that no one had ever talked about what goes on in a bathhouse. There are many erotic stories written about encounters at the baths. But there are hardly any books written about the politics and culture behind a bathhouse's doors. It is truly a whole other world. By writing about those topics, hopefully, people come away with a better understanding of what a gay bathhouse is all about. The baths should not be viewed as a taboo term, but rather as an integral part of a distinct culture and community.
