Okay, while this is funny… this is also another reason why Folsom Street Fair makes me sad. It used to be a lot like Dore Alley is with tons of gay guys in Fetish gear. But, because there was money to be made off it, it’s become so commercial that the guys who started it are now the butt of jokes.
It’s still a fun event. I go and see lots of west coast friends like “Mikey”, “Fuzzy Taco” and others but, in my humble opinion, in the end it’s not an event you’d go to find other guys into BDSM/Fetish as deeply as I am (and probably most readers of this blog). I find myself hanging out at Mr S Leather to find some of that kind of fun trouble and trying to get on invites to private dungeon parties. Or skipping Folsom all together (as so many hardcore kinksters do) and attending Dore Alley Fair.
To each their own.
