GAY CRUISING

Anytime? Anywhere?

You wish!!!

But safe gay cruise havens can be found in most gay Australian clubs and saunas.

Have a look on: http://www.gaytraveller.com.au to find one to your liking…

And of course you could ask the locals where the less safer spots are.

And maybe one day the following will happen in Australia as well:

A park near Amsterdam in The Netherlands has unveiled information signs pointing out spots where officials say gay men are known to have sex - so no visitors are taken by surprise.

The signs "clearly indicate what is happening in each zone; also those where gay men are known to practice 'cruising'," municipal spokeswoman Manon Koffijberg said.

Cruising is a slang word used to describe the act of trawling for casual sex.

"If you don't want to be confronted by a vision of that sort, the signs allow you to avoid specific areas," said Ms. Koffijberg.

The De Oeverlanden park in Slotervaart, southwest of Amsterdam, is known as a place where homosexuals from all over the Netherlands and elsewhere in Europe go in search of sex partners.

Ms. Koffijberg said that while having sex in public was against the law, the park has been used for this purpose for so long that it has become "gedoogd", a Dutch word for tolerating unwanted behaviour.

The sexual activities of cruisers, she said, kept mostly to the bushes in the park, and the new signs sought to ensure that they stayed there.

"There are various groups of users of the park; people with small children who bathe on the beaches, those who walk their dogs, gays cruising and nature lovers," said Ms. Koffijberg.

"Things are arranged so that each group can relax in their own area without intruding on each other."
