Eurogames 2012 in Budapest

Like many other scenarios of our culture, men have always had a privileged place in various sports categories. Perhaps because of the origin of the Olympic Games in ancient Greece, where men were always the dominant gender in all the competitions. Of course, women today have also a significant presence in all branches of sport, as a result of the twentieth century advances in terms of rights and equality for all individuals.

eurogames-budapest

Today, women play sports, which was once considered only for men, such as football, basketball, boxing, wrestling, among many others. Even though this is already common in our culture, there are always conflicting comments or rejection about women´s sports. Thus, the struggle for equal rights, for people of different genders is still present, even in sports, against ignorance, discrimination and lack of mind-openness by the dominant gender.

Throughout this struggle of genres, EuroGames are presented as an important alternative for the LGBT community. If you´ve never heard of the EuroGames, they are the European sport competitions for gays and lesbians. This important event, besides being a high-quality choice for sports fans in different disciplines, also aims to combat discrimination based on sexual preference and encourage the integration of all genres during sports events.

So EuroGames seeks to give a new option for those LGBT athletes who have been marginalized because of their sexual preferences, make them feel pleased and even and even encourage them to “come out” during a sports celebration that enriches fraternal and enthusiastic relations. The Eurogames are open to all who want to participate, regardless of gender, age, race or sexual preference. In recent editions of EuroGames, athletes from Europe and the world have participated. This year, this important event will be held in the beautiful city of Budapest, from June 27th  to the 1st of  July , another reason to visit this important city during the summer.

Budapest as a Couple

Finding the secrets to excite your partner is more than an adventure. It’s about the tastes and types of stimulation that excite us, finding out what we like best as well as what are partners like, that results in both curiosity and a number of experiments. When referring to stimulation, this could be something far from merely sexual or simply that we educate ourselves about precisely what is sexually stimulating. The media generally sells something too corporate and too artificial to be truly erotic. Tight, short dresses, high heels, uncovered skin, tight paints for men, shirts that reveal lots of skin and modern hair cuts all predispose us to think that sexy or erotic is a perfect combination of clothing, measurements and style. However, what is erotic and stimulating doesn’t have any particular characteristics. And if we are exploring the world of sexuality and stimulation, we are in for a surprise.

Shopping and fashion in Budapest

Anyone who thinks that Paris, London, Milan and New York remain the only sources of international fashion today, little know about what is really happening in terms of fashion around the world. Of course, these cities continue to conglomerate much of the international fashion industry, many of the most important designers are strategically placed in them, but much more is happening in some other cities, such as in Budapest. Besides having a lot of independent designers, Budapest aroused the interest of the consumer market to fashion; “Made in Hungary” is present.

shopping <b>fashion</b> budapest

The future does not belong to the old dinosaurs, to the same markets. From the place of the margin, from the borders and out of the common patterns, at present, new and riskier models are being tried, new ways of dressing, different costumes, and riskier products at better prices by independent designers, sound much more interesting. The WAMP fair that takes place regularly in this city verifies this.

It is noteworthy that some of the most important and recognized brands are more established in Budapest, either in shopping malls in central areas of the city or intermingled with small shops in the historic center. Brands like Vapiano, United Colors of Benetton, Sisley, Tommy Hilfiger, Hugo Boss, La Coste and Nanushka will be waiting for. All these brands are available in the ” Fashion Street ” on the remodeled DeĂĄk Ferenc Street.

Keep in mind, that style in Budapest at night is very important; both women and men, are risky, wearing trendy and sexy clothes, when it comes to conquering the nights of dancing and fun that the city offers. Do not be surprised that some residents actually spend time and money in the production of their daily clothing. Like in any big city, the style is considered long before romance.

Another essential place to find the best in fashion in Budapest is the shopping mall next to Blaha Lujza Square. Here you will find a greater variety of items in some very exclusive, small shops and recreational areas, as well as other services to spend an entire afternoon shopping.

While the most of the best in clothing, shoes and accessories can be found at the center of the city, exploring some nearby areas you will find interesting shops where there are plenty of unusual items and great prices. Like going hunting, it´s about going with the keen eye and explore everywhere. Never miss the deals at the beginning of the year, some weeks after Christmas holidays.

Retrock: Experimental boutique in Budapest

When it comes to creating in fashion, the best thing to do is to be irreverent and uncontrollable. Urban fashion is in constant change, just like cities, and one has to dress to rise to the occasion. The challenge is in knowing what to choose confidently among the best designs and models for each situation, each event, each day. Today, the role of fashion in culture is still expanding, for good or for bad, and it constitutes itself even more into an indispensable factor to understand youth, the political circumstances of politics and towards which direction common interests are going. The main thing is not to lose your mind when choosing a design, by trying to impress or being casual.

retrock budapest

The visual production of today surpasses the limits of assimilation of all Internet users. In other words, a large part of the world is connected to a marasmus of images and stimulants which surpass our capacity of interpretation. From this distinctive feature of our present, fashion uses resources such as design, photography, recycling and politics to be able to denounce or praise its own market. The biggest companies in fashion of today don´t waste time on their studies on market campaigns because now it´s clear that fashion is on the street and it follows the street, for the street. Never doubt in finding a new garment or style by walking around where you usually do. You just have to have a little more curiosity and risk, finding new designs, vintage clothes or accessories in any city which you go to. It´s not about being original, as you know, but more about knowing how to organize those accessories and clothes which go best with your personal style.

Like in all European cities, even more now in this globalized era, Budapest also generates new fashion and clothing trends. As it´s well known, fashion in Budapest is part of its daily life, just as it is to always present new models on the international catwalk. Budapest is among the cities which the fall of the Berlin wall suited best. Certainly a city which offers a lot of culture, history and art, as well as first class night entertainment. All of this fits perfectly with a perspective of global growth, in which those cities which were isolated before due to old ideological systems, now flourish trying to be in the centre of the international cultural production.

Retrock presents some of the most interesting designers in Budapest, among which we can find Nanushka, Use Unused, Tamara Banuff and Je suis belle. At Retrock you can find unique pieces, all of them original samples of the newest in international trends. Also, of course, there´s international designer clothes, and fashion created from recycled elements, new materials or vintage, as well as comic books, posters of the 60s and 70s and the best kitch accessories that you can imagine. All of this in an atmosphere in the centre of Budapest, with the best service from a young stuff filled with great energy.

Bonusz in Budapest: Festival of Electronic Music

The effects of electronic music are probably different than those of other musical genres. Although the rhythm is repetitive, songs random and a constant mix of rhythm, voice and interpretation electronic music reaches the senses deeper than any other musical genre. Furthermore, the constant drug use at festivals, raves and underground parties leads to a more intense experience that opens our imagination, desire and body at parties come close to rituals in certain moments, one could call them technological. The inicial interest in electronic muisic derived from the experimentation with several effects and devices that generated frequencies for over 50 years. Eletronic music entered our daily life as an established music genre with many different forms and possibilities to dance and listen to with technology that continues to advance and new possibilities to create effects through computers.

bonusz festival

Maybe it was the psychodelic master Timothy Leary who with his talks about LSD and its effect on the body who it itself represents an electronic machinery claimed that drug use will broaden the limits of our minds and with these new bodies through which we carry electronic impulses we reach new levels of imagination and reality which meant a possible evolution through the stimulants of LSD.

Leary caused such inspiration in the German community creator of thel Krautrock, amongst whom the electro’s fathers, Kraftwerk, it would be essential for us to understand that experience of mental and sensory expansion had to be done with effects and electronic devices: synthesizers.

Kraftwerk’s career till today needn’t be mentioned now, but it is to understand that resolution of the electronic effect in the sound has been changing with the different tools and devices that are used today, both for electronic music generation as in its reproduction. This way, electronic music festivals are pilgrimage events, of a subculture that without even realizing, is already a great part of the system. So much that there is already very few it can be offered and which it could re-assimilate as a chance or aspect towards the mainstream side. The festival corporation is present all around as we know, and it is not but from this corporation that one can better understand the music today and conglomeration it causes, as well as its reactions. Our links with PCs are today so close that thinking of moving away from electronic music and its possibilities is crazy. We are closer and closer of a future which, as Blade Runner said, implies an electronic Hill and artificial life, perhaps music is our insertion path in a future which is already happening, against our wills, and from our senses.

To live electronic music, come to Budapest and be part of this festival that is the best event of the year. For further info, visit this page: http://www.bonuszfesztival.hu/2011/

La Cicciolina: From Budapest to Rome

There is a before and after Cicciolina, both in pornography and in Italian politics. But first we should ask what strange twist of fate causes women born in Hungary to be some of the most beautiful on the planet. It´s no joke. Hungarian women have a very particular grace and beauty that has made them perhaps the most desirable women in the world. Some of the most attractive porn actresses working today come from this country.

cicciolina budapest rome

But to tell this story, we must go back in time. The history of pornography in Hungary dates from the period after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Until then, both production and distribution of pornography was illegal in communist Hungary. However the laws were changed with the arrival of “democracy” and these more permissive laws soon allowed this country to come to the forefront of the industry. Foreign directors were quick to take advantage of Hungary’s permissive laws, its low production costs and its large numbers of attractive actresses. 

However, the history of La Cicciolina dates from long before the Wall fell, and although her story is mainly connected to Italian culture and government, it is worth noting that she is from Budapest. In the 60´s she worked as a model in Hungary, and it wasn’t until the early 70´s that she began to develop her career in Italy. In the 80´s she starred in her first hardcore film and her fame grew even more. After this, she entered politics and, in 1987, was elected to the Italian parliament with more than twenty thousand votes. Her prime aims were to combat the nuclear threat and world hunger.

Among the most memorable moments of her time in parliament was the occasion she offered to have sex with Saddam Hussein in exchange for him releasing prisoners during the Gulf War. After failing to be elected again in 1991, she became one of the founders of the Partito dell´Amore, along with the porn actress, Moana Pozzi. Her further attempts to take an active part in politics failed, as did her offer to Osama bin Laden to have sex with him in exchange for an end to violence in the Middle East.

Although the successes of Cicciolina’s political career may have been negligible, her presence in the Italian parliament undoubtedly had an impact on European society. The fact that she found enough support to be able to crossover from the “underground” world of porn to the international political arena opened many people’s eyes to the true market size of pornography and its deep integration in contemporary culture. In pornography’s revelatory power of display, in its rawness, and in its blatant use of sexual intercourse as a means of production and capital, it explodes all society’s ideals, whether moral, political or religious about what sex means in our culture. La Cicciolina represented the impulse of downtrodden women everywhere to take control for themselves and wield some of the power in an industry, religion and world ruled by men.

Sziget Festival in Budapest

Budapest is delightful. There´s never a lack of beautiful people everywhere, above all the proportionate and exotic Hungarian women, who will captivate you by just looking at them. Budapest carries on growing and, as such, it´s turning more and more cosmopolitan as we speak. Sziget Festival is an option to listen to some of the best bands on the planet in beautiful Budapest, for five whole days, as well as getting to know people from around the world, who are always searching for adventure, romance and crazy times.

sziget <b>festival</b> budapest

Among the participants in the festival we can find Interpol, the New York band that along the years has known how to capitalize its image, sound and provenance. A band from New York is, at the end of the day, a band from New York and everyone knows that. Despite that, their last album, titled “Interpol”, leaves that band in a very uncomfortable position. To put it simply, if before they were Joy Division, now they´re just U2. Their best song is still “Turn on the bright lights”, a really amazing night-time album which is post-9/11, which managed to portray in their lyrics the isolation, shadow, frivolity and insecurities of the city that never sleeps.

From Australia we receive Empire of the Sun, a band that with their single “Walking on a Dream” from 2008, hasn´t stopped impressing and delighting live. They have a pop-rock sound which borders romantic and new wave, with a paraphernalia of clothing and cosmic attire.Their videos are clear homages to nature and the cosmos, generally in remote locations, which create a world of fantasy and colour that seduces and invites one to dance. It´s worth seeing their videos and, live, as well as video screens and lasers, the use all sorts of choreography to create a very personal universe.

Amongst the other crowd favourites we can find Pulp, Kate Nash, The Prodigy, The Chemical Brothers, Rise Against, British Sea Powder, Triggerfinger and Peter Bjorn and John. The summer festivals in Europe and around the world today, are a huge way of sound trafficking, trying to save the industry which is plummeting. Despite that, you can have a good time if you want to. Checking out this event´s website, you don´t need much to see the way in which the younger bands sell themselves, generally older is better, and it happens in many of the festivals now. Which will be the new sound to appear? Who knows.

It seems like rock sound would have stopped at some point in nostalgia, where few people still listen to it without having much knowledge that things are changing. The media, internet, Twitter and Facebook are responsible that the final product of any musical or artistic experience is the relay of this information. It´s not very important how many times it´s played but to how many people it can reach. Meanwhile, Sziget Festival is a good place to start. For more information and tickets visit this webpage: http://www.sziget.hu/

The incorporation of Spanking in bed

Every couple is different and so is each bed. Moreover, everyone is free to enjoy sex the way they want to. There are thousands of sexual practices that fall outside the rules and spanking is one of them.

spanking

Spanking is an English word that means whipping, but it is not used in a violent way, but it is a sexual practice that is increasingly spreading among fans worldwide. There are specific groups who are fans of spanking, they put it into practice and promote it, but you don’t need to belong to these clubs to introduce some spanking in your bed with your partner.

The spanking consists on hitting softly with the palm of your hand on the buttocks of another person and, as the tailbone is an erogenous zone, this practice automatically becomes pleasant and a masochistic fantasy at a time.

But it is essential for both sides of the couple (the one who whips and the one being whipped) to agree on the practice because, otherwise it loses the erotic value and becomes more an act of violence. Here, one plays with fantasy: one has to imagine having been a bad girl who receives a spanking because she or he did not do the right thing. Also, the other one imagines dominating the couple, having him or her in their legs as they lower their pants and underwear for you to hit them.

And as we said before, all these practices (although not being so common) are valid if the couple agrees and enjoys it. The incorporation of innovations in the bed is always good to strengthen the sexual bond with your partner and discover new tastes and ways to generate pleasure.

d.b Only-apartments Authord.b

If you want to practice spanking with your partner (steady or casual) rent apartments in Budapest and have a quiet, private and ideal place for carrying out all the sex you can imagine. Also take advantage of a city that has many sex shops for your favourite whips.

Gay Saunas in Budapest

With a fascinating history, Budapest is undoubtedly the one and only queen of the Danube. Since Roman times, this beautiful city was renown for its numerous thermal baths. Also, the famous Aquincum museum, is found in Roman ruins which are over one thousand years old. Among these, there´s an amphitheater as well as other archeological wonders. The Danube in itself is already a marvel in itself, and there are cruises that take you from its top to the very bottom.

sauna budapest

Anyway, if what you´re looking for isn´t just romance but a bit of action instead, there´s a wide variety of gay saunas in the city where great massages, some eroticism and freedom combine, so you can have an intense time while you´re visiting museums and historical sites. One of the most popular ones is Magnum. With well-equiped facilities with over 550 sq metres, you can find saunas, steam rooms, private cabins, glory holes, video rooms, gym, solarium, bar, food, massage rooms and dark rooms so you can have “more privacy”. Whatever you can imagine, it´s there. Also, this popular place organizes different events in its facilities. Having been Budapest´s first gay sauna, every Friday they have naked parties from 10pm and, on Saturdays, parties from 8pm with live shows. Unmissable and unpredictable.

Along the same lines, another very interesting sauna is Sauna 69. In its, obviously, Western style, in 69 you´ll be able to meet cute guys who go to relax there for a while taking a break from work or there everyday lives. It has a jacuzzi, steam rooms, private rooms and glory holes. Also, if your thing is swimming and being naked, Palatinus is also a very good option. It´s open from May 1st until August 22nd, in Margit Szeget. There´s a nudist terrace full of gorgeous guys waiting for you. Of course, each of these options are at your wallet´s disposal, and what suits you best. The truth is that one week to explore these options would be good for you. It might be the necessary time that you need to go for a steamy walk in the most daring saunas.

And while we´re on the subject of Spring and Summer, a well-recommended beach for gays is the Lake Omszki Beach. This is north of Budapest and you don´t have to pay to be on the shores of this lake. It is mostly frequented by naturists who come to enjoy these waters on the hottest days. Exactly, nudism everywhere and, above all, plenty of gay visitors, so that´s another meeting point that you can´t miss. At the lake, as well as having a splendid bath, you can also do waterskiing and go on boats. For more information on gay activities in Budapest, you can visit this webpage: http://www.budapest-gayguide.com/

Pleasure, toys and latex in Budapest

Look, I never forget Budapest, not only for all the Hungarian porn actress I´ve seen in my life or for the times I´ve gone to the medicinal baths throughout the city, it’s none of these things; neither is the architecture or the Danube, nothing: it is about the fact that Budapest can be so free and ultra gay, if you search well you will find so many fetish and atmosphere chances.

pleasure, <b>toys,</b> <b>latex</b>

To go out, I recommend you to do it after 11pm, as bars are not so full before this time, and what you want is to arrive and succeed. I recommend you the Action Bar if you are there on Friday night, it’s got strip-shows and live sex, and if, after a while, you want to dance, there is no better idea than going to the Alterego club. Knowing its name, imagine the rest: the most beautiful and fashion boy, transvestites of all ages, dance, hmmm…

On Saturdays, if you want to go out at night again, I recommend you the Coxx Club. It is full of latex and glamour, that is to say, we are soldiers and they are dolls, latex and black glasses. Before that, of course, take a look to my favourite shop: Black Dream. Specialized in bondage on a minor or major scale, they have penis extenders and> machines to brush it against your partner’s one, how beautiful! Suckers and anal masturbations with electric objects, I’m so exited!

If after so much hustle and bustle you feel like relaxing your body a little bit in some “spa”, you must visit the Magnum in the eighth district. Get massages from the boys at a low cost: as I love the bears, there I am in paradise.

SISTER RAY Only-apartments AuthorSISTER RAY

There is no city with limits, so rent apartments in Budapest and let yourself go by your party instinct. The best thing of the Hungarian capital city is that, despite being a little bit conservative, if you remain for the necessary time you will find the darkest pleasures, so nothing else, just trust.
