Some read, others sleep. Fortunately, talking on the phone is usually not allowed. Speaking of naked. Some people think that with all this nudity, men should be constantly struggling with their erections. The same goes for women, if they had a similarly visible sign of their arousal. At least that's the prejudice I've often heard. But that's not the case at all. Despite the ubiquitous exposed bodies, the situation is quite defused. I've never actually come across an erect penis in this environment. As a passionate sauna-goer, I have a lot of experience in this regard.
Incidentally, the sauna is much more than just a physical pleasure. In the sauna, the image of the perfect body that we have internalized through the constant presentation in the media is also straightened out. Because it's not just the well-trained athletes who cavort here. Here you can see people as they really look, unadorned in all their beauty. For this reason alone, I can only recommend everyone to give it a try. And to make sure everyone feels comfortable, there are a few simple rules to follow in terms of interpersonal etiquette:
1. peeking is allowed. Staring is not. If you let your gaze wander, you'll be grazing breasts, buttocks and pubic areas all by yourself. There is no other way. But you shouldn't linger on them and give the other person a feeling of being gawked at. If you want more, you can go to special sauna clubs. Touching is also allowed there. That brings me directly to the next point.
2. no groping in the sauna. Sundays are couples' days in the saunas. That's wonderful, no question. But what is so wonderful for a couple in love - foot massages, neck massages, back massages, holding hands, exchanging kisses - is just annoying for everyone else. You can do this when there really isn't anyone else in the room. No one else is interested in the love vows either. So shut up!
3. no swimwear in the sauna. We don't really know whether clothing is a hindrance to sweating or even unhygienic. In any case, the same rights apply to everyone in the sauna and that means nudity. That's exactly why it's such a matter of course. If you still want to cover your private parts, you can wrap yourself in a towel. But only if there really is no other way.
4. no intimate posing. There are men who like to let their crown jewels dangle between their legs. And there are women who like fresh air on their vulva. You can do this in a sauna club, but not in a normal sauna. Here, the genital area is not presented separately. If you do it anyway, you shouldn't be surprised at the looks from others. By the way, short towels wrapped around your hips while sitting with your legs open also reveal everything if someone is sitting directly opposite you ☺
5. everyone takes care of their own sweat. During sex, it can be stimulating to rub our sweaty bodies against each other. In the sauna, sweat should always stay with the owner. So, spread towels generously underneath you! Nobody wants to sit on other people's sweat, be hit by drops of sweat or hear how the sweat is noisily rubbed on the body.
6 No auto-eroticism, ever. That sounds obvious. But it's not. I realized this at the latest when I noticed a man working on his penis in the hot tub next to me. It may have been very stimulating for him. For me, however, it was very unpleasant. Off to the sauna master, I can only say!
Of course, there are many other rules, such as showering before a sauna session, cooling down and resting sufficiently, no alcohol, etc. But that's not my point here. But that's not my point here. I just want to point out what should be observed in a wellness sauna. Anyone who comes out of the sauna sexually stimulated is welcome to let off steam afterwards at home or wherever!
