RUFF PICS

#TBT

This photo is easily 20 years old from back when I lived in Ohio.   Here we have me in my early 20s in my first Latex Catsuit.  Pretty sure I got rubber gloves from Home Depot!  And that AOL address is no longer in use. It’s still amusing that I’ve been using the same handle/screenname for over 20 years.   

Imagine how surprised I was to find this photo on Tumblr of all places earlier this week.

#TBT : Dore Alley 2013

KINKY NOSTALGIA: Dore Alley in 2013 at the Mr S Leather booth. This was surprisingly comfortable bondage. Closely monitored by Daddy Richard, I zoned out for quite a while here while the festival went on.  

#TBT: Transparent latex

Posted on by

I bought this transparent latex catsuit from Libidex a year ago or so. I used their sizing chart and got a XL. It was too big. Sold it. I’ve been meaning to purchase it again in a large because it was funnnnn!

I spent quite a bit of time tied down like this. It was a very dreamy experience.

#TBT: RUFF THOUGHTS: Growing past scenes that went bad

  • Every now and then I like to pull this older blog entry up and share it again in hopes that it will help others.

Just ran across this older photo from San Francisco around July 2012.   I’m the boy in the Leather Straitjacket.  Another version of the photo in my blog banner above.

It had been a VERY long time since I had done a public scene like this.  I had a bad experience with a inattentive Bondage Top about 12 years ago. That experience sort of damaged my ability to trust others with total control over me in a public setting such as this.  Yet, I still craved this sort of fun years later. Some fantasies just don’t go away.

Time goes by fast and so do opportunities like this.  “Up Your Alley” Fair (Dore Alley) was approaching and I knew this Leather Top that would be attending the event.  He was (is) a close friend that I trust and thought “worst that could happen is that he’d decline”.   Man, it was still difficult to type out the question!  After getting my dorky nervous message… he replied “It would be my pleasure to have this experience with you”.     🙂

That day came and I sort of expected myself to back out but he was great with taking control by making solid plans on when to meet and what to wear.    It all happened so naturally and we had a great time.  This day was very special to me and will always be one of my favorite moments as a Leatherman.  Not just because it was a hot scene with an even hotter friend in full BLUF Gear (WOOF!)… but, because I pushed past the hurt and got to live out a fantasy once again.  

#TBT: My first Chicago Rubbermen party

I recently found these photos on an old RUBBERZONE gallery that I had forgotten about!    Some of my first rubber.   The Rubber Chaps were from Mr S Leather.   Man, I miss those! 

This was before going out to a Chicago Rubbermen party back in 2007. That’s our first Chicago apartment.  My partner and I had just moved to Chicago.  We were so excited to be a part of the Chicago Leather Community at the time. 

#TBT: RUFF THOUGHTS: “Life lessons at Dore Alley Fair” (& a #TBT)

Here’s a Throw Back Thursday photo of myself at Dore Alley Fair 2014.  

This photo reminds me of an important life lesson I “re-learned” that summer.  You see, I had a crush on these two guys for a long while.  They knew it, too.  When we talked, my mind sort of fogged over. This happens when I am really into someone including the image/role that they’re portraying (“Totes Dom Top”) and the hot gear they are wearing. I got nervous and awkward around the 2 hot men flirting with me at the street fair as we drank warm beer…. freezing up several times in mid conversation.    DERP!  

I’ve done this all my life.  I call it the “Peter Parker meets Mary Jane” syndrome.  You remember that scene from Spider-man, right?

Right at 00:25

But, the lesson I re-learned… for like… the billionth time that summer?   Sometimes, especially at kinky street fairs, S&M can just stand for… “Stand and Model”. Despite the flirting, they weren’t really into me. They just wanted the attention and enjoyed leading me on because it made them feel and look good to others.  I mean, the fair was closing and I still had not been ordered to lick any boots nor were plans made for later (despite hinting)!  Wake up, Ruff!   

I still look back and laugh at this experience.  My pooooor widdle heart was broken that day!  Awwww… Poor Ruffy.  (Don’t worry, I got over it) .    This photo is a favorite because it reminds me to be realistic.  To remember that some guys are just there to “Stand and Model”.

….You know, looking back, it also really didn’t help that Daddy Richard had me in chastity for 2 weeks prior to that day at Dore Alley Fair….  

:-O

RUFF THOUGHTS: “BlueEyes85_”

Posted on by

I know it’s going to sound like the Daddy in me is speaking but I wanted to share something special.

To me, one of the most rewarding things as a Leatherman is when I have the privilege of being of a part of a friend’s growth into a happier person… or Puppy.

During MAL 2019, @BlueEyes85_ (on IG) tried on my Leather Puppy Hood (and then again later).  Once it was on, I could see in his beautiful eyes that something had clicked.

After MAL, he told me how it impacted him. A sense of euphoria and calmness came to him reliving a weekend scene he had many years ago.  He immediately started designing his own CUSTOM Leather Puppy Hood.   I ordered him (he likes orders and protocol) to wait until his big bonus came in.  During facetime, I gave him permission and much encouragement to start his Puppy journey.

Mr S Leather said it would take up to a month for him to get his Hood (and “WOOFY Tail”) but…  surprise surprise… it arrived in a week!    We then facetimed again for the big Puppy reveal.   The screenshot is the first time he saw himself in his custom hood.  He’s slept in it two nights in a row now.

He is SO happy with his purchase which in returns makes me very happy.   It’s also got me tossing around the idea of getting a hood myself (I tasked him with designing one for me).

Now @BlueEyes85_ (on IG) just needs a Pup name.
