Handstands in the little pool

Free! 4 pack of 160g tins of tuna in spring water. London only.

Every time I've been to Rio's since I transitioned I come out with angst. Argh. I want somewhere where I can be naked in front of multiple people, and I want to be able to use a sauna without having hassles because of being trans. The two things don't necessarily have to be combined. Burbling on, processing.

AHG: I don't take my wife here. Why do you beautiful women come here when you know us men are looking at you?

AG: Would you like a massage?
Me: No
AG: That was a quick no! If you change your mind...

TG: *sits too close to me*
Me: Could you give me some space please?
TG:*shakes my hand, goes to hug and kiss me²*
Me: *defensive body language*
Later...
TG: I am Effer¹, I am Turkish. What's your name?
Me: You don't get to know my name. *leaves, to his mimed/friendly protestations*

There was a guy shaving his dick in the shower!

There were plenty of friendly people there, but it was far from relaxing, especially in the jacuzzi. I really wanted to relax my leg muscles too. I'd done weighted squats earlier. I was *hoping* to use the mixed changing room, but they'd put a sign up saying 'Gentlemen'. Bah. I had a thought of sucking some c*** in one of the private rooms, but I was way too uncomfortable to do that.

I'm thinking I could use [particular sex club] to be naked in; I could get someone to paint something on my chest like 'transman' or 'don't assume'. Where can I go to a sauna though? Saunas are so gendered :-(

¹ I didn't hear him properly
² I think there were cultural and language problems; I don't think he intended to wind me up. I couldn't deal with him after that though.
