同志浴室

位于美国华盛顿特区洛根圆环的一家同志浴室
同志浴室，亦称同志桑拿室（Gay bathhouse），是供男性与男性可能进行性行为的公共浴场或三温暖。

**简介**
同志浴室有别于一般用来洗澡的公共浴室，是用作进行性行为的地方。但不是所有光顾同志浴室的男性都认为自己是男同性恋。为女性提供相似服务的公共浴室很罕见，但是一些男士公共浴室偶尔会设置“女同性恋”或者“仅限女性”的夜晚。
浴室的大小和设施各有不同：有的仅有一二十个房间和一些寄存柜；有的有好几层，房间大小不等风格各异甚至有蒸汽桑拿、喷流式气泡浴和游泳池。大多数都配备蒸汽室（或湿桑拿）、干桑拿、淋浴、寄存柜和小房间。
很多浴室出于法律原因仅限会员进入，会员资格一般是开放的，只要交很少的钱。与妓院不同的是，顾客只需要支付使用设施的费用。如果发生了性行为，一般不是由员工提供的，而是在顾客之间发生的，这其中没有金钱交易。很多同志浴室为了遵守法律，明确表示禁止或不鼓励性交易并禁止性工作者混入。一些公共浴室尝试阻止顾客发生商业行为，另外一些贪图利润或不惧怕法律风险的浴室，会默许这些性行为的进行，但不会声张。

**历史**
男性在浴室中寻求同性性行为可追溯到15世纪。公共浴室的历史课上溯至公元前6世纪，希腊也有很多同性性行为的历史纪录。
欧美的男同性恋自19世纪末或20世纪开始在公共浴室中发生性行为，由于同性性行为当时在大多数西方国家是不合法的，而且发生同性性行为的男性会被逮捕或当众羞辱，男同开始经常在很多场所寻求与同性发生性行为，包括公共浴室、公园、小巷、公共厕所和健身房更衣室等。
在台湾，至晚在1980年代即有同志三温暖。
21世记后，由于网路交友的盛行以及许多国家同志合法化，同志三温暖逐渐式微。

**礼仪**
顾客一般在入口处获得了毛巾、一个储物柜钥匙和避孕套等。不成文规定是穿着浴衣或毛巾才可以在公区走动，但在干桑拿或蒸汽桑拿中裸体也是正常的。除了休息室、饮品区、暗室和按摩浴缸之外，性活动可以发生在任何地方，任何人都可以自由观看或尝试加入。
在这种充满激情的环境中，一个眼神或点头就足以表达兴趣。在较暗的地方，例如迷宫、视频室、群交区、桑拿房或热水浴缸（但通常不在淋浴间、厕所、走廊、健身房、咖啡厅区和休息室），通常可以自由触摸其他顾客，但摇头或推开对方的手，则表示拒绝。
