Is it gay to just chill in the tub with your homie naked? Well, maybe if it was just a small tub that’s meant to just hold one person in, then yes. But when it’s a big hot spring or public bath, that’s a different story.

This is a vibe.

I’m thinking about going to Japan one day with my homies, and I was wondering if I was down with hopping into a hot spring with them. All of them said no, so I guess I got my answer, but I wonder if I would be down with trying out a hot spring anyways without them. It doesn’t have to be my naked homies in the hot spring, I can just meet some new naked homies there.

Come and join me, my new friend.

It’s not a problem in Japan, and pretty normal there. But here in America, the idea of two guys being naked around each other is gay as fuck. I’m pretty sure I’d feel weird at first, being naked in front of anyone for the first time is a weird experience, but I do wonder if hot springs are the life changing experience that anime makes it out to be. It does seem like a cool, cultural thing to try out, but I wonder if I’ll enjoy it more if I could just be all American with it and wear swim trunks.

Yeah, a towel and a bucket ain't going to be enough for me.

So all in all, no, it’s not gay to be naked in a hot spring with the homies. It’s a bonding experience that all homies should experience once in their life. But, I’ll be honest, I’m more interested in trying out the mix hot springs, so I can see some hot Japanese babes naked. But let’s be honest, all the guys are thinking that, so you’ll most likely just run into a bunch of dudes that had the same idea.

Welcome to the mix bath.

Would you ever visit a hot spring? Would you be okay with being naked in front of your homies? Would you join a mixed hot spring? Tell us in the comments.
