Can Fort Lauderdale support two leather bars? I sure as fuck hope so!ĭid I say “fuck”? That’s just what you can do at Fort Lauderdale’s hopping bathhouses. But the Ramrod got some new competition when the Eagle Wilton Manors opened for business just up the street. The Ramrod itself is one of handful of American leather bars that’s still going as strong as ever. At night, you can shop at LeatherWerks’ outlet inside the Ramrod. For something beachy, browse Ball Beachwear in Wilton Manors. Legendary outfitters Stompers Boots (formerly of San Francisco) is right next door. Speaking of leather, a stop by LeatherWerks is obligatory for every visiting fetish pig. If clothing-optional is too vanilla for you, look no further than Inn Leather. For something closer to the nightlife, Cabanas Guesthouse and Spa, Calypso Inn, Ed Lugo Resort, and Manor Inn are all clothing-optional spots in nearby Wilton Manors. Cheston House, the Grand Resort and Spa, and the Worthington are all clothing-optional resorts at the beach. You can stay at the beach at one of the many gay resorts. I even got my cock sucked in the water by a flight attendant there in ’07.

Finally, the time had come for gay Fort Lauderdale to sizzle.įort Lauderdale is now one of the gayest spots on the East Coast. The straights moved in and took over around the turn of the millennium.

In the ‘90s, South Beach-about an hour away at the southern tip of Miami Beach-was the place that gay boys flocked to from around the country and beyond. But gay Fort Lauderdale wasn’t ready for its day in the sun just yet. This opened all of Fort Lauderdale to the more discreet homos. What America didn’t know was that during those same decades, Fort Lauderdale was becoming a resort town for a different type of boys-the kind of boys who made out with each other while Connie sang.īy the late ‘80s, the locals had had enough of the hundreds of thousands of hard-partying college kids and drove them out of town. I even spent my spring break ’85 in “Fort La Dee Dah” with my fraternity brothers.
It started a spring break boom for Fort Lauderdale that lasted three decades. Immediately, all of America knew that Fort Lauderdale was the place to go for spring break.
In 1960, Connie Francis sang “Where the Boys Are”, the title song to her movie about spring-breakers in Fort Lauderdale. Will Stone shares one of his favourite places with you: Fort Lauderdale. With a vaccine on the way we can start thinking of traveling again.
