PANTS OFF! If you were intrigued by scott's reference to the Everard Bath House yesterday, check out the indispensible website Legendary Gay Bathouses of New York City.

Bath Houses aren't the only places where people prance about sans pants. There's the subway, too. Why, I wouldn't be surprised if scott himself were to ride the 6 train in such an exposed state on Sunday (under the aegis of ImprovEverywhere)!

There is a diaper business called Panda Pants, but pandas rarely, if ever, wear pants. Why is that, you ask? Surely because pants would interfere with panda sex, silly!

Special thanks to Gothamist.

The New Saint Marks bath house was photographed in 1992 and some of the photos and memorabilia will be on view for the readers of www.gaytubs.com THe pictures are up now but the rest of the material will be added in a few weeks. These photos were taken with the permission of owner Bruce Mailman. The building was going to be gutted and sold . The bath was closed by the NYC Dept of Health in 1985 due to aids. This bath house was the largest one in the United States at the time and holds a warm spot in the hearts of the thousands who went there. The memorabilia includes on set of keys and the story how the New Saint Marks bath house preservation project will be shown in full later in 2009 at the NYC Leslie/Lohman Gay Art Foundation. Leslie/Lohman.org and now if you want to go to the blog go to gaytubs and leave a comment. The addition of memorabilia is almost complete Go to NYC legendary site#2 and that will take you right to the New Saint Marks bath
