Today we’re going to talk about cottaging and, no, that doesn’t mean looking at quaint homes in the country that look as if they should be featured on chocolate boxes.

Cottaging is the term for dogging when practised by gay men and just like dogging, it means that certain areas are known to be frequented by gay men who either enjoy being watched by others or are the complete opposite and want to watch strangers having sex.

It’s strange really because there are plenty of places you can go to see others having sex or to show off while doing it yourself and yet cottaging and dogging–both closely related–are incredibly popular pastimes amongst certain groups.

I spoke to a gay friend about cottaging and he said the thrill is in the not knowing who’s watching or, if you do know you’re being watched, not knowing who that person is. And sometimes you can invite a complete stranger to sit in the car with you and watch, or even join in. Yeah… I can see the attraction in that.

Some dogging sites will be left to be occupied by gay men (it’s almost always men) on certain nights and a quick search on Google should bring up some answers as to where you can find cottaging sites.
