I found this yesterday and hoskie told me to post it here, so...

"Many well off, and some not so well of, men would always have a man servant who as often as not 'lived' in with their unmarried master. This did not attract any attention and gave plenty of opportunity for semi permanent relationships."

and

"A popular Turkish bath in Jermyn street was well used by gay customers from around 1838 until the nineteen seventies. Gentlemens' clubs often had baths staffed by attractive young men who would massage and pamper club members. Women of course were never allowed on the premises and this tradition continues today despite sex equality laws."


Hehehe. *happy grin*
