Hallow's Eve Spanking Demo & Play Fest, Wed. Oct. 30, 7-11PM


Magnum says...

"It has been a pleasure and honor to organize and present this month's discussions and workshops. I trust they were fun, stimulating and inspiring and that you found the topics to be of value".


Here's the final event for October 2013:


This Wed Oct 30th from 7-11pm: "Hallow's Eve Spanking Demo & Play Fest"!



Cum and indulge your gluttonous appetite for "spanking and butt impact" play!


This is our first attempt to create an alternate space for our monthly demo nights at a private residence to allow more freedom of expression.



Patrick (a member) has offered his home for this "trial run" and it's suggested that you email him to RSVP and to receive the address.

Here's Patrick's email: pjwilloughby11@yahoo.com

Please bring your butt, hands, paddles, canes, tree limbs, belts, spatula, spanking horse and a playful attitude for a night of "spanking" tricks & treats!

FMSD Status Report, Late October 2013

By Papa Tony
These are a few of the men are currently working, 
helping and coordinating their efforts to make 
FMSD's next phase the best one of all!
If I missed somebody, please forgive my patchy memory…

Almost exactly forty months ago, I created FetishMenSanDiego with just a few gathered emails, and a promise of more events to come. Since then, there have been 668 blog posts, hundreds of cooperative and mellow events, thousands of new followers, and a deep, rich legacy of brotherhood. 

At no time have I done it all by myself. We are greatly blessed to have always had a large, affectionate team of brothers who are dedicated to shifting our Tribe into its next phase. The magic of FMSD's design is that it is crowdsourced. Our next stage is going to be all about empowering anyone with an excellent idea that will benefit our community, so that his dreams can come true.

In my own case, rather than retiring completely (as I had previously said that I would), I have realized that I can still contribute as part of a team.  Many men are eager to create new events and traditions, and I'm sticking around to applaud, coach (if desired) and facilitate their efforts.  Decades of experience can be a great asset for men who are on the rise!

I will still be pretty darned visible in an online context, though I won't be front and center at most of our upcoming events. A BIG team of men are successfully starting out as community leaders, and each individual event will be run by the guy in charge. If you don't know these men yet, you'll have plenty of opportunities to find out how wonderful they truly are.

This is the time of year when the number and scope of events will decrease more and more as the end of the year approaches. Then, after the first of the year, expect some surprises. One of the benefits of a flexible group is that it's designed to be an environment that encourages innovation.



The foundation of our group is tremendously strong:

- We are gaining a minimum of five followers every single day, and sometimes many more. Many of them live nowhere near San Diego, but they hunger for a strong sense of Tribe, and we supply it in a very appealing way.

- By supporting other groups through advertising their events, we are supplying "glue" that helps the larger community thrive.

- We have an increasing number of men with experience and deep wisdom among us, and they are eager to share what they know. 

- Our youngest brothers are ecstatically happy - thriving, and getting the support that they need from dozens of "Loving Uncles".

- Many couples have found each other through our group.

- We're somewhat "Top Heavy" in our membership (around fifty percent, week after week at the Men's Discussions), and this is a wonderful thing. I plan to keep mentoring other Tops as an ongoing community service… More sassy, experienced Tops = happy, happy bottoms!

- Speaking of the Men's Discussions, we're breaking new records in attendance. Each month, a new member of the team takes over the Men's Discussions; making the plans, coordinating the presenters, and taking responsibility for how things go, once the meeting is under way. This is working superbly.

- Check out our new home page - It's designed to set the goals for the group for a long time.



Our next Enormous Movie Night is coming up on Wednesday, November 13th.  It's going to be wonderfully typical of how FetishMen can be, when we are at our best. If you want to be a part of some thoroughly enjoyable history, don't miss it!

Expect BIG announcements after the first of the year.  We're getting all of our ducks in a row before then, so stay current, and watch what happens!

Recap of Men's Discussion Workshop (Oct 23, 2013)

Note: The fourth Wednesday of each month is reserved for Hands-On Demo Night, which will be held at a private residence.




Once again there were no empty seats at last week's "Wed Men's Discussion". At least 42 men were in attendance for the "rap group" that centered around the mutual interest concerning fetish and "claiming what you desire" in the realm of BDSM.

The workshop was facilitated by Magnum and  started with a group of members posing in a "tableau" (living portrait) to stir up our perceptions and interpretations of BDSM.


Magnum asked the men "what did they see and feel"? while they were instructed to change positions around the tableau and the room.

As the men checked-in and introduced themselves, each man talked briefly about his perceptions of the tableau. The discussion was lively and thought provoking.


Next, the men gathered in small groups and intimately shared and discussed their beliefs, judgements and opinions regarding BDSM.

As the workshop came to a close, the men expressed that they had become more aware, and discovered that "we have more in common with our fetishes and desires than our perceived differences".

Come join us next week for fun, fellowship and brotherhood!

Welcome Home our American Leatherman 2013 Aaron Duke and Fetish Finds Social

Note from Tony:  I'm completely unaffiliated with this event - I'm just posting details here so that the folks who aren't on Facebook can remain informed. However, I FULLY endorse everything to do with the event, and our newest brother club.

San Diego Fetish Brotherhood is our Tribe's newest group, and I wish that we had fifty more of them. Back in 1997, we had twenty-six local affinity-groups dedicated to kink, leather, and fetish.  The Internet killed nearly all of them.

Thanks to San Diego's renaissance of folks who are showing up at events because they are tired of living virtual lives, we are building and sustaining new groups such as San Diego Puppy PatrolLeather boys of San DiegoFetishMenSanDiego, and now San Diego Fetish Brotherhood (SDFB). I'm revealing it a bit early, but the paperwork for the new Southern California/Southwest chapter of ONYX has now been submitted, so we'll be hearing more from them soon. 

FMSD's specialty role as "Social And Education Support Team For Our Tribe's Newest Members" will continue as before. Thanks to the rapidly growing diversity of groups, we can all focus on our strengths.

2014 is going to be our best year ever, and we are greatly blessed.

Let's give our brothers a warm welcome!


Friday, Oct. 25, 6:30-10PM: Welcome Home our American Leatherman 2013: Aaron Duke, and Fetish Finds Social, hosted by San Diego Fetish Brotherhood.

Come congratulate the New American Leatherman 2013: our very own Aaron Duke!

While you're celebrating, check out all the awesome gear, toys, and boots that have been donated from local community members, with low prices and all funds go to support Wish Linda's help foundation. We will be providing some appetizers and cold soft drinks as well.

======= UPCOMING EVENTS=======

A few of the 47 men who showed up for 
Rob's Ropes & Bondage workshop, Oct 16.

This is the time of year when events become fewer.  This is a normal part of our yearly cycle.  We are heading into a season when there will be office parties, trips to visit family out of town, holidays and endless distractions. So, expect things to pick up heavily once the new year begins.

Recap of Bondage & Ropes Workshop, Wed. Oct. 16, 2013



From Magnum:

There was "standing room only" as men came from as far as Orange County to attend the Men's Discussion event: "Bondage & Ropes" workshop facilitated by the illustrious Rob Ray!


First, all of the more than 45 men "checked in" and introduced themselves.


Rob Ray demonstrated and entertained us with his knowledge of simple and advanced knots and harnesses to keep our potential "play buddies" safely bound and restrained.


The men came equipped with rope and were excited, enthusiastic and ready to engage with each other.


Magnum, the "Master of Ceremonies" broke the men into groups for a more interactive, hands-on experience.


After more than an hour of practice and play, the group was treated to a full body restraint demo by Rob Ray.


As the workshop came to a close, some men gave positive feedback and expressed having more sense of skills and wanted more of these types of events to create fellowship and brotherhood.


Overall, this event was "fit to be tied"! See you at the next Men's Discussion, on Wednesday, October 23.

Ropes, Knots, And Bondage Play Workshop

Wednesday, October 16, 7PM. Brought to you by Rob Ray.


ROPES, KNOTS, AND BONDAGE PLAY

That's Rob, at his best at HARNESS a few months ago.

Rob Ray (from the early days of Harness Nights at Numbers) will share his knowledge, expertise and brilliance on ropes, knots and bondage play this will be a talk and hands-on interactive!



Presenter's Bio:

I have been a leather man for the better part of 25 years.  My involvement in our community has not always been consistent. However, my passion for kink & play has been.  One of my favorite things is using rope & cellophane for bondage.  I started my passion for rope at an early age, when I was a sea scout. At the age of 12 I learned basic & advanced knots & that translated easily into bondage.  I am currently very interested in suspension bondage of all types.  I do not consider myself an expert by any means but I am willing to impart my knowledge & show some of my skills to our FMSD Group.  I hope to see some of you on Oct 16. Until then play safe.

Bootblacking 101

Wednesday, October 2, 2013, 7PM.


If you’ve been instructed to learn how to take care of your Top’s boots and leathers or simply want to learn how to shine your boots good enough to feel proud heading out to an event, this class will help get you started.

Cobi, Southwest Bootblack 2010, will cover general techniques and products for cleaning and maintaining boots and leather items.  This IS a hands-on workshop!  Please bring something leather to work on (even better--bring someone in boots!) and bring your own supplies.

What you’ll need to build a basic kit:

Saddle Soap or glycerin soap (like Neutrogena)
Horsehair soap dauber
Horsehair shine/buffing brush
Toothbrush
Wax polish (Kiwi, Lincoln, Angelus)
Huberd’s shoe grease (if you have oil tan boots or leather items)
A soft, clean, lint-free, cotton cloth (a t-shirt will work )
Lint-free cotton towel or rag
Pantyhose
Spray bottle
Lighter




Cobi is celebrating his tenth year with Club X.  He currently serves as Secretary on their Board of Directors.  He shares his BDSM experiences at colleges and has taught classes on bootblacking, food play and making toys.  He also serves as Ambassador in the San Diego Leather Realm, helping curious people find their kink.  Cobi is the Southwest Bootblack 2010 and because of his playful instigating, was pinned "Mama's Bus Driver."
