I used to have a Bette website, people used to send me VHS tapes all the time. I found them when I cleaned out some boxes in storage

Yes I'm aware...the vhs tapes degrade overtime, it was the best of the bunch... I did mention that in the description...since it wasn't anywhere on YT I thought perhaps someone might at least find it interesting.

Thinking about the bathhouses depresses me. All these men and young boys having unprotected sex thinking it was liberation (which I suppose it still was in a way). Little do they know they were killing themselves and eachother because of all of our lack of knowledge regarding sexual health. My heart swells for all those who lost their lives during the start of the AIDS epidemic.

Midler didn't start her career.... in the gay bathHOUSES of NYC. Youtube Bette On Joy Behar 1:10 ONE bathhouse does NOT constitute more than... One. ah...the media are such lying whores. Barry Manilow played in them? Of course he did. And straight ugly women flock to see him perform. Hysterical. He's like Liberace. What's hysterical is that these women love him...and he loves their men. lol.

I went there in 95, my friend enrolled in AMDA the school that's on the ground floor. The building is beautiful... but the tour didn't go to the basement, and they only said it had been a bathhouse, not The Continental Baths, so wasn't till a few years later when I first saw this clip that I realized it. *sigh* wish I'd known, I would have taken better photos. One day I'll get back to NYC...

I thought it was a good way to start the weekend :)
