Stowaway May 24, 2018 Share May 24, 2018 To weigh in on the Gays at the Gym issue with the perspective of middle age. . . when this episode would have aired, I was living on Portland. There were just two gyms that were known for being popular among the gays. One was the sort of place that played club music and had a reputation for shower hookups. The other was an upscale gym in downtown that was also popular among young professionals. At the Princeton Athletic Club, in 1999, in Portland, Oregon, you could be kicked out, and ultimately have your membership revoked, for acting or dressing "too gay." It was a different time.

Tara Ariano May 25, 2018 Author Share May 25, 2018 I was living in Toronto when this episode aired and went to the Y that was walking distance from my house, and even at that gym, there were rumours about hookups in the men's locker room. Because it was a Portuguese neighbourhood, there was also a rumour that someone got kicked out for grilling a fish on the rocks in the sauna.

April Bloodgate May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 This episode is definitely a rough one to watch now. I'm curious if you can even say this F word on network TV anymore. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/69703-s01e19-will-works-out/#findComment-4361132

I would be more freaked out about cooking a fish on the sauna rocks then people screwing in the locker room. Those rocks will ALWAYS smell like fish. Showers can be bleached. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/69703-s01e19-will-works-out/#findComment-4367091

Stowaway May 30, 2018 Share May 30, 2018 It's interesting that they bleep it now. I get the impression (mostly from reddit, so who knows) younger gays are way more likely to call each other that these days. No one used that word affectionately back in the 90s.
