I never saw a glory hole in my life

[neruda]

I must be a moron then

So where can I find them - and how does the game begin?

You must REALLY want an STD.

I never have either, I always thought they were a bit of a myth.

No, they exist.

ME TOO! but then again I heard the story from Nessy before the Wizards tried to blow her out of the water.

 

[Smitho]

We can call the program mythbusters, and see if they can find one!

 

[davy]

i saw one once; but it was so long ago, i can't remember where.

 

[Kulindahr]

I found my first one by accident....

 

[neruda]

Frankly, I wouldn't worry as much about STDs as about undercover cops. I'm not sure guys in tea rooms are any more likely than, say, guys in bars or guys online to have an STD.

That said, I have seen the infamous holes. In particular, I used to work at a college radio station and the restroom across the hall was notorious for having them. The university ended up putting a lock on the door and gave keys out to the offices on that floor, but it just moved the traffic to the restroom upstairs (or so I was told). Eventually, the university renovated the restroom, including the installation of drill-proof partitions.

glory holes are pretty much a thing of the past outside of sex clubs.

I haven't seen one anywhere except a sex club that I went to (not to have sex, oddly enough) in Toronto in the mid 90s.

They really are much more urban myth than fact.

 

[neruda]

Ah - I was beginning to worry.

Actually this is amazing - there was a Craigslist announcement stating that such and such a guy would wait near the glory hole in a University Loo [ Gawd].

Sure enough I went to check [not for the guy but the g'hole] - AND obviously didnt find it

 

[SurferBoyKai]

i'd be scared to even look at a glory hole. so many nasty kine diseases there. ew

I used to stick big steel bars into a glory hole! A 'glory hole' is also the term for the spout on a smelting furnace where the molten metal is tapped from. You use a steel bar to keep it clear of crap that cools and sticks to the spout. It is a truly shitty job!

 

[LeoMikey]

I've seen a few, but have never had anyone stick their dick through. Nor have i shoved my wang through! Diseases, police, psychos, the stench of most public bathrooms....none of that gives me a boner. But most of all, you can't see what the guy looks like who you're sucking, or is sucking you. You think you're blowing Brad Pitt, but it's really Dick Cheney.

Seen several with mine own eyes. Our esteemed University, LSU, Coates Hall, 1st floor bathroom, west side. LSU is the #3 area in the US for bathroom glory holes and gay sex. I've unfortunately actually had to use that bathroom before (there are 3 more designated glory hole bathrooms on campus, which garnered the school a spot in a national article a few weeks ago). They try their best to plug the actual holes whenever a new one pops up. I don't know about recently, but when i was there, there where dozens of wood patches in all the stall walls.

It's weird when your mom phones you up, tells you she's read an article about where you went to school, and then asks, "what exactly is a glory hole?"

 

[star-warrior]

We just had crudely drawn pictures on our univesity toilet walls, and promises of hook-up several months before I read them.

that made me bust out laughin brah! haha


but uhm...topic creator, why do you wanna know about glory holes?

 

[unclaimedblessing]

They were very popular before the advent of HIV, which changed a lot of things.
Many bath houses started closing then also.
Anonymous, public sex became more dangerous (even deadly) and basically out of fashion.
