Fridae

A renowned gay sauna in South Korea's capital is said to have banned old, unattractive foreigners.

Marcel Wiel, author of Find Love in a Gay Bathhouse, says contrary to popular belief one can meet quality husband material as the bathhouse is a good place to observe men at 'play', and provides tips on how to spot Mr Right in a pool of sexual contacts and to save oneself 'a lot of time and energy' by weeding out the wrong guys.

Fridae speaks with Marcel Wiel, a UK journalist and author of Find Love in a Gay Bathhouse, who says his meeting his husband in the steam room of a 24-hour bathhouse provided the impetus to publish the book and that a bathhouse is really not as hopeless a place to meet quality husband material as often thought.

Fridae's Alvin Tan, shares some observations about sauna sextizens and offers some basic sextiquette for readers making their first forays into this sweaty scene.
