Where's your favorite Banya - Hammam - Jjimjilbang - Spa - etc.?
Since this forum is about discussing the benefits, history, and culture of hot air bathing, wouldn't it be apropos to tell the other members of the group about any outstanding (and preferably manly) places we have been to go with one's buddies to do so?

If he's a workout partner or otherwise had experience with "gang showers" (e.g., military), ask if he would like to go to a place to…"
Stephen Charles Bond commented on Stephen Larsen's group Banya Men!"What is the difference between Korean Spas and the others? I know that there's a difference between a Finnish sauna (low humdity, 5-10%; high temperature, 190-200 F); a Turkish steam bath (high humidity, 100+%; lower…"

Though they aren't common in the United States, Jjimjilbangs, Banyas, Onsens, and Hamams are a great places to hang out. This is a group for men comfortable in their own skin and appreciate the eastern ideas of public bath houses.See More

JonEdanger replied to Herb Munson's discussion The Primacy and Existence of God in the group The Great Debate"I have no issue with anyone's beliefs as it relates to them. Whatever gets you through the night. I don't even have issue with people proselytizing. It's these zealots that are irritating. "
Herb Munson left a comment for Doug H."Hey Doug. Welcome to The Great Debate. Great to have you with us."

The Great Debate
"Iron sharpens iron." A place for men to impact each other by debate and exchange of ideas. This is a group where no ideas are off limits. If your motto is, "I never talk about politics or religion," this group is probably not for you. A "gym" for thinkers.See More
