The leather subculture within the gay community has been around since the late 1940s. Since then it has changed and evolved. The leather subculture incorporates BDSM into one’s lifestyle. Leather has different meanings and associations to us. It can be symbolic of strength and power as well as sexiness and danger. Leather/animal skins is a useful and practical material that is used for clothing, and other useful items including floggers and restraints. Some of the qualities that can be associated with a Leatherman are caring, integrity, honesty, growth, and passion.

Here we will explore through discussion:
  • •  What is a Leatherman?
  • •  What is/was the draw for each of us to this community?
  • •  What does leather mean to me? The community?
  • •  How do we come together as a community of Leathermen and show up?

It is the hope that this exploration will get us all thinking about what is leather, what the leather community is, and how we fit into it in our own way.  Please come with an open heart and mind.

- Send email with your First and Last Name to: SignMeUpForEvent {at] GMail to RSVP and for Venue info before Saturday to receive venue details and be placed on the door list. We will not be checking email the day of the event.


- Proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a recent negative COVID-19 test is required for entry.

FMSD supports negotiation and consent in all kink play. Granting consent and clearly negotiating are hindered if you are in an altered state. Therefore, this is a non-alcoholic event. 



Description of Event: Bootblack Workshop


I don't know about you but my leathers are dusty 'cuz they have been neglected in the closet for the past couple of years thanks to COVID cancelling the events and restricting our social encounters.



From the presenter: Taking care of leathers can be a simple task, a service, or an erotic exchange of energy. For some it is a fetish for a type of boot, an act of community service, or an expression of service to a select few people. The individuals that take on the identity of being someone that cares for leathers and boots are often called bootblacks.


This class will be an introduction to the basics of taking care of high shine and oil tan boots and leather garments with some discussion on how it can be used in different contexts.


If you would like to participate with your own supplies here’s a small list to get you started:

- Glycerin soap or saddle soap: as pure glycerin as possible. As far as I know Neutrogena is still ok to use

- Horse/boar hair shaving brush or horsehair dauber brush for soap

- Spray bottle of water

- Microfiber or terry cloth towels

- Hard wax polish

- Lint-free cut up t-shirts

- Leather conditioner: Huberds (shoe oil or shoe grease), Obenaufs, Fiebings Aussie, Chelsea Leather


Optional:

- Creme polish

- Toothbrush

- Horse hair buffing brush

- Gloves

- Q-tips

- nylons


Bio: Bootpup Rune (he/they) is a leatherboy switch who started his kink and leather journey in 2017. He has a love for connecting with others through education and bringing visibility to marginalized communities.


He is currently volunteering on the Board of Club X and is active in several other groups including San-PAH, an ageplay group, and a power exchange group.


As a bonus for reading this far (Congrats!) Scott will offer photography of you in your freshly cleaned and polished leather gear. 



It's also a potluck so break out your best entrée or appetizer to share with the group. We will provide soda/pop/soft drinks, chips and salsa and queso.

Bring a couple of towels! You'll need one to sit on and one to dry off after you brave the unheated waters of the pool.

If you have questions about the event, please reach out and we will do our best to answer them.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing and socializing with our Brothers once again!

About our Presenter:

I began my leather journey around age 17 when I met a Sir who took me under his wing and taught me several fundamental lessons. I was trained in various protocol styles, negotiations and consent. The lesson I hold dearest = “You must learn to be a good bottom before you can become a great top”. This lesson has allowed me to become a true switch. 

Over the years I have been pup and boy, and now I am Sir and Alpha. I am thankful to the men who have taken the time to train me as I go forth to do the same for others. I am an active member of House of AndOr, Club X San Diego, Fetish Men San Diego, and am a Delta Brother. My list of kink is extensive but above all I am an experimentalist. I have presented at SD Leather Pride, Kinky Kollege, Fetish Men San Diego, Delta Brotherhood International, Club X San Diego, and Drummer Palm Springs.

FMSD supports negotiation and consent in all kink play. Granting consent and clearly negotiating are hindered if you are in an altered state. Therefore, this is a non-alcoholic event. 



Description of Event: Impact Play


Have you wondered what the big deal is about receiving or giving a flogging or spanking? Would you like to dust off your tools and get some pointers on your technique? Are you starting from nothing and would like to learn about impact play and then try receiving or throwing a flogger or your hand(s)?

If you want to be a demo bottom, please respond ASAP so we can have a conversation and determine how best to proceed.

It's also a potluck so break out your best entrée or appetizer to share with the group. We will provide soda/pop/soft drinks, chips and salsa and queso.

Bring a couple of towels! You'll need one to sit on and one to dry off after you brave the unheated waters of the pool.

If you have questions about the event, please reach out and we will do our best to answer them.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing and socializing with our Brothers once again!
