Quote from Come Hither: The Commonsense Guide to Kinky Sexy by Dr. Gloria G. Brame (2000). Photo from Bondage Photographer Vol 1 No 6 (1990).
East Asian woman with a bob haircut, wearing silver hoop earrings, and a thick leather collar with 2 D rings. Her arms are chained above her head out of shot. Text: [Labels are both good and bad. What's bad about them is that they emphasize the differences among kinky people and not the shared experiences. When I see people expend huge amounts of energy splitting hairs over definitions, I wonder if their real goal is to create distinctions between what they do (what they find acceptable) and what others do (what makes them uncomfortable).]

Excited to be collaborating on this project. Capturing unique stories of the journeys of leathermen is important not only from a historical perspective but also for inspiring new generations to embrace leather culture and find their tribe.

Quote from Thinking Sex by Gayle Rubin (in Deviations, 2011). Photo from Whip No 13 (1976).
A woman wearing a leather halter dress with lacing down her sternum, a leather collar with a pearl set in center, and long leather gloves, looks to the side at a man wearing handcuffs. Text: [Feminism has always been vitally interested in sex. But there have been two strains of feminist thought on the subject. One tendency has criticized the restrictions on women's sexual behavior and denounced the high costs imposed on women for being sexually active. This tradition of feminist sexual thought has called for a sexual liberation that would work for women as well as for men. The second tendency has considered sexual liberation to be inherently a mere extension of male privilege. This tradition resonates with conservative, antisexual discourse.... In addition, proponents of this viewpoint have condemned virtually every variant of sexual expression as antifeminist. Within this framework, monogamous lesbianism that occurs within long-term, intimate relationships and does not involve playing with polarized roles has replaced married, procreative heterosexuality at the top of the value hierarchy.]

@migikun.bsky.social - last time I was in the city you were living your best life, doing the things you loved, embracing your desires and your community. How quickly things changed. Whilst we kept contact across the miles I’d always thought that I’d see you this visit.
