In an attempt to achieve physical sexiness (I’ve got a long way to go), I’ve purchased a cheapo membership to a local gym (Planet Fitness for you stalkers out there). Since joining, I’ve had the amusement of answering several questions about my particular motivations for deciding to work out at a gym. I suppose that I should take my homosexual stereotypes of sleazy rendezvous in the steam room in stride the same way I do with my obsession with fried chicken because of my skin color (put some hot sauce on that shit….DAMN!). However, it’s funny how MANY people I’ve talked to about this who have the same questions: Am I going to the gym to work out…or hook up?
Now, for most of my gay life, I’ve heard the stories of the taboo “Gym hookup.” But it was my understanding that the hookup was secondary to the primary purpose, which was actually working out. But in recent days, it seems as though working out has been placed on the back-burner and the ever-evolving hookup is now the primary focus of those frequenting the gym…..or at least that is what my co-workers, friends, and close relatives (ew) are leading me to believe.
Me personally, I would never try it for a couple of reasons. One, I’m trying to achieve physical sexiness and I’ve got about 15 pounds of gut to lose before I can start pole dancing for facelift money. Two, I’d be too chicken shit scared of getting caught. Three, have you ever attempted anal sex in the shower? It hurts. But to each his own. If that’s how you wanna spend precious free time, go ahead.
My question is, how often have you heard about it? Is it just a gay thing? Is the gym really not just for working out anymore? I would love to hear from some hetero-folk to see how many stories are out there.
I’m off to the gym!

Well, I know you requested some good old hetero folks, but I'm all you got right now. Well, seeing as how I've lost a great deal of weight and toned up to a decent level in the last year, at Planet Fitness I might add, maybe I'm naive to think that the gym is for working out. Don't get me wrong, some of my best work outs are when there is man candy around to motivate my ass to stay and try harder, but single or not, I would never succumb to the stereotype of the faggot gym hook up.
Weather or not this is a gay thing, as ashamed as I am to admit it, I think so. Think about 9.5 out of every 10 gay erotica books that you will ever find, black or white, they will undoubtedly have at least one gym hook up story, which sadly enough is probably based on some fact and some fantasy.
I could go on and on about this topic, but this is not my blog. Lata.
