Saunas in Scotland are obviously a lot different to the saunas elsewhere! I've been in dozens of saunas and never felt the need for a condom.

Over here, you just need a towel - if you wear anything more, you will usually be thrown out. If you try any funny business, you will be thrown out.

The sex industry is regulated very differently in Germany, I believe.

Plus saunas allways have been more commonly used for legitimate business.

Never knew these sorts of things existed

If it's a means to keep the workers safe then I don't see the issue, especially as it seemed to be resolved a few years ago

Condoms have been around for thousands of years, and mainly to avoid pregnancy. Though I am surprised that you had not heard of condoms before now? Were you away when the birds and the bees were taught in school? ;)

Not just Germany, also the local sports centre in Calmore and in hotels around the UK.

In Sweden the saunas are at public swimming pools and you get people of all ages in there. It is a completely normal thing to do in Europe.
