Adonis Lounge New York/Brooklyn

This is a private party venue fairly new to Brooklyn, near the Greenpoint subway station on the G line. They have parties in a rented facility on Thursday nights that draws a pretty good crowd. The line-up of strippers is toward the muscular beefy side.

Johnny from buffboyzz and Tim are the organizers. Tim manages the house and Johnny brings the boys. It is a friendly atmosphere with stripper fans from the New York area that long for the glory days of the Gaiety Theater in Manhattan and before, when there were a lot of male strip clubs in NYC. It is not hard to strike up a conversation with like-minded men and compare notes of strip clubs visited around the country.

This night, 3/25/2010, there was a line-up of about a dozen men. The strippers mainly came on stage in underwear and danced. That was it. A couple teased with tugging at their drawers for a peak of the goods, but mostly it was advertisement for lapdances which were offered afterwards in a curtained off area. Only one dancer, JR, who is amply endowed, seemed comfortable with full nudity on stage and also seemed to share his gifts with customers in the lap dance area.

Other strippers seemed mainly interested in body worship. A couple seemed to be genuinely enthusiastic about interacting with customers on a friendly, fun loving basis. But it was truly a tame evening, eveybody behaving themselves so as not to jeopardize this fledgling new scene in town.

I had a good time with JR and also with many of the other fans who I have heard of on other sites over the years. A good evening and recommended value for the $10 cover charge at the door.

Other Places in Puerto Vallarta

As mentioned before, Blue Chairs Resort is the nexus of gay activity in PV. They advertise strippers on Friday evenings beginning at 5:30 pm at their rooftop bar and stage overlooking the beach. My schedule didn’t allow me to check this out thoroughly, but I definitely will on my next stop. On other days they have drag shows and other events, no cover.

On Wednesday’s a tour operator has a gay tour, Sunset Party Cruise, that advertises strippers on board. This is worth checking out as well.

I did a brief stop at the bar Picante that had guys entertaining the crowd at their seats in their underwear. I didn’t stay long and so have to learn more about this place.

I also stopped into Zenit, which advertises a “show”, but was too late to check it out, and there was a hefty cover.

In all, there is a lot for male stripper affectionados to do in Puerto Vallarta and I would recommend that you go south sometime to have some fun. All the venues seemed to be clean, safe and ready to cater to tourists.

Puerto Vallarta

Casanova’s

My other stop in Puerto Vallarta was Casanova’s, a short distance away from Antropology in the older section of town. This club advertises male strippers and delivers to both men and women in a corner bar consisting of one large room. All service is at your table, no bar. The stage is one corner of the room and the boys come out one by one to strip to thongs and then circulate for tips.

The strippers were handsome and very nicely built, more naturally endowed than gym-built. There was some very nice eye-candy that could rival the best that US or Canada has to offer. But the venue was stripping to thongs only and no apparent place to do privates with the dancers for more attention.

The crowd was pleasant and received the dancers well with applause and respect. The guys seemed very proud of their routines and really did try to entertain the crowd with tease and skin. The drinks were fairly priced and tips were appreciated.
The two servers were cute as can be and I would have like to see them up on the stage. In all, I would recommend this place as a stopover while in PV. It is less hustle, more relaxed and definitely worth the little money you will probably spend there. (I didn’t ask about after-hours engagement, but I can dream.)

Puerto Vallarta

Antropology

I visited Antropology on a Friday night while on a brief trip to Puerto Vallarta. The club advertised a 9:00 pm opening, but didn’t open until 10:30 pm. I noticed the same late start the next night as I walked by a little before 9:00 and no one was there, the lights were off, etc. So late start granted, maybe it’s a Mexican thing. The cover is $50 (Pesos) about $4.50 US. I picked up a card for the club near the main gay hotel, Blue Chairs, that got me in without a cover.

The club is upstairs from a main street in PV, next to the river. It is nicely furnished,clean and well-lit. Before the boys took their turns on the bar/stage stripping nude, they were circulating around the bar pressing themselves on the patrons and asking for tips. Most of the boys were on the muscular to beefy side. There were about twenty around the club that evening.

As each onetook his turn, he then circulated again, this time nude, or nearly nude, allowing quite a range of touching and fondling and offering privates “upstairs” for $500 (Pesos) for fifteen minutes. Although it sounds like a lot, it is a bargain compared to US prices. One very nice young man came up to me while I was sitting at the bar and laid his erect penis on my lap, gave me a brief massage and asked if I wanted a private.

As others circulated, I sometimes felt hustled, sometimes genuinely offered. One guy was a little put off when I indicated I wasn’t interested after he got a little pushy.

The crowd was a mix of Mexicano’s and gringos. The atmosphere was friendly, the music not too loud. In all it seemed a friendly, safe place, a venue put together to bring nude male strippersto tourists and locals alike. I would recommend it.

Progress

I spent a lot of time yesterday searching for and creating the club links on the right side of the page. I have to test them for errors. But it's coming along. If you know of any that I have missed, let me know. There were a few clubs that I found that were mentioned in reviews but had no website that I could find. Look for more information as we go on.

In the beginning . . .

I have the good fortune to be able to travel easily. I would like to use this ability to promote the health and vitality of gay male strip clubs when club owners take the leap and choose to offer this type of adult entertainment.

You will find personal assessments of clubs' ambience; quality, range and breadth of entertainment; and basic information about locations, prices, etc. Comments from other readers offering their opinions are welcomed.

You will find reports on the legal environment in which the clubs operate so that customers can know ahead of time when they step over the line and jeopardize the club's license or their own personal safety.

This is a work in progress and updates will be as frequent as travel allows and reader's comments are shared.

Thanks for visiting this site.
