What defines an "FKK" club?

What defines an FKK club?

Stole this from the FKK FAQ thread:

[quote]FKK, an acronym for the term "Freikörperkultur" meaning 'free body culture' in English, was originally attached to German nudist camps, but later came to describe sex clubs. Those sex clubs are managed as if they are nudist swing saunas: girls and men pay entrance to be able to use the clubs facilities and what happens between them is not supposed to be the club's business. This is how FKK are a legal business in Germany. Still, if the girls are freelance, pay only an entrance and keep all the money they earn from the customers, they agree to respect a few rules including dressing code, health test and agreement about the club's clear pricelist. The dressing code may differ from one club to another. A genuine FKK refers to a dressing code where girls are naked and men wear a towel around their waist. If dressing code is lingerie for girls and bathrobe for men, it's not supposed to be an FKK but a sauna club. Except for dressing code, there is no difference between the two types of clubs.[/quote]

- Entrance Fee: Both men and women pay an entrance fee to be able to use the clubs facilities.
- Club Oversight: What happens between customers is not officially the club's business.
- Relationship w/Club: The girls are freelance, pay only the entrance fee and keep all the money they earn.
- Safe Sex Practices: In general, uncovered BJ, covered intercourse, CIM extra.
- Venue: All sex is in private rooms or other similar private venues.
- Attire: The girls are nude except in eating areas. Men wear a towel around their waist.
- Prices: Pay per session. Girls agree to adhere to the club's "suggested" pricelist.

Agree with what Admin have written. The key thing about an FKK is the fact that the women are (more or less) totally naked.

CD

One issue to consider is that in some saunaclubs, certain days are "FKK days" when the girls are nude. This can be up to almost half the time, like at Haus Pantera in Ratingen (Thurday-Saturday) and Dolce Vita in Dusseldorf (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Sunday from 11 am to 8 pm).

Jax[/blue][/QUOTE]What Shark16 "stole" from the FKK FAQ thread is correct. My interpretation is that an FKK-club is a Sauna Club where all women are naked nude without clothes all the time. (Like at an FKK-beach or FKK-camping site = nudist resort or nudist camp site.) I already posted the following in the "What defines a Sauna Club?" thread:

"A Sauna Club is a place with a club-like atmosphere and the regular club facilities, (usually including a Sauna) where you pay an entrance fee (which sometimes might even be zero) and have to pay extra for each session or for a limited number of sessions. An FKK-club is basically a Sauna Club, only that the girls are always naked."

As for the above quoted list of elements, which goes for Sauna Clubs and FKK Sauna Clubs:

Entrance Fee: / Relationship w/Club: There has not necessarily to be an entrance fee for men (like at clothed "FKK" World in Giessen, real FKK Colosseum in Augsburg or Dolce Vita in Raubach). Entrance can be free, like at Villa Venus and FKK Arabella. Women don't necessarily pay entrance fees, there might be other arrangements with the club as well. They might rent a room in the club, they might work as freelancing entrepreneurs, they might even simply be hired personnel. It differs from club to club and is propably no different at FKKs than it is at regular Sauna Clubs or even brothels.

Club Oversight: That depends on the arrangement between the women and the club.

"Safe" Sex (safes and strongboxes are always so tight to have sex in) is no criteria either. Dolce Vita Raubach, Villa Venus, Grimbergsauna, FKK Arabella and FKK Dietzenbach are definitely FKK clubs with all naked girls, but are all AO places. At other clubs, the quoted "Safe" Sex Practices might apply. But it's been told that even at such places, AO does happen at the discretion of working girl and guest, even against club policy.

Dress Code: All girls are naked everywhere. I don't think anybody gets dressed to enter the eating area. At the FKK-parties I attended at Swingerclubs, everybody was naked everywhere and if they went eating, then they put a towel on the chair. Can't tell about FKK-clubs, but I'd be surprised if it would be any different. The men wearing towels around their waists might differ from club to club too.

Prices: Definitely pay per session! That's the most important differentiation between FKK/Sauna Clubs and flatrate Partytreffs/Pauschalclubs/Gangbangclubs!
If there's a club's "suggested" pricelist, it's usually in accordance with the women, even if they are freelancers.

At the risk of being lazy, some clubs will have "FKK-Tagen" where it is an FKK by anyone's standard 2-3 days of the week and the rest of the time a Sauna Club or Brothel.

In the attached photo you can read how M-exclusiv saunaclub [url]http://m-exclusiv.com/ahaus[/URL] defines themselves:

"Verein zur Förderung geselliger und kultureller Freizeitaktivitäten".

That translates approximately "Club to promote sociable and cultural recreational activities".

I think you need to divide FKK clubs on the bases of region like NRm, hessen, etc. Its difficult for a new traveller like me to findout the clubs in vicinity.
