It was great to see San Diegans at San Francisco Leather Week. During the week, I spent most of my time with visitors from San Diego, Toronto and Malta. Each of them had a totally different experience making his way through the menagerie of decadence that enveloped Fagdad by the Bay.

Leather Week begins the Saturday before Folsom Weekend with a formal leather dinner followed by the Leather Walk and “Bare Chest Calendar” men auction the next day. The auction was emceed by Lenny Broberg who also emceed the Mr. San Diego Leather Contest in 2008. One of the guys went for $7,000 during the auction. Yes, $7,000! We’d better get Lenny to emcee the Mr. San Diego Leather 2009 Contest and bring the calendar models with him. Monday and Tuesday were spent at the gym for most, and a couple of our buds from Urban Body Gym in San Diego were definitely giving the boys at Gold’s stiff competition. Gold’s in San Francisco during Leather Week is like a clash of the monster trucks – porn stars/hustlers/trainers/Big Muscle men and everyone else that may or may not be able to afford them.

Wednesday was the Underwear Party at Blow Buddies. I spent the night there researching for this column and I’m happy to report that most of the men were very satisfied with the outcome. Thursday night was the Cockpit Party which was attended by my friend from Malta. Cockpit is invite only and to be approved for the guest list one has to e-mail a current face and body picture in advance. According to Mr. Malta, Cockpit was “incredible,” and he said nothing like it would ever happen in his country so he had to take advantage while he could. The horny male “hot meter” was off the chart and everyone was doing anything and everything to everyone all night long.

On Friday night my friend Justin had a release party for Hard to Swallow No. 4 of his comic book series. Justin is one of the sexiest men on the planet and will star in the Grey Rose Productions video, SWEAT, to be released this winter. The Hard to Swallow series will be on my holiday gift list, but in the meantime, visit www.gaylesbiantimes.com/links for a link to Justin’s Web site.

San Francisco can never have enough calendars, so the next reception was for Blade and Mike’s “Bearhunter” calendar with cover model Matt, who is the star of Grey Rose Production’s video Semenhole, Texas. Yes, there is a theme here. My Toronto friend went to the Bearracuda party that night. The poor guy had to deal with hot, hairy, sweaty men dancing and doing dirty things in dark areas. Canadians are such giving people, and he gave so much that he missed our gym date for Saturday morning, but he made up for it.

Saturday, in my opinion, was the best party of the weekend: The BigMuscle.com Meat and Greet. The only way to describe it is the hottest men from the Big Muscle Web sites gathered in a club that’s too crowded, too hot and too humid with everyone wearing as little as possible – to be comfortable, of course. At a few different times the whole scene became overwhelming, with all the deep kissing, rubbing, groping, licking, sucking and probing – before any introductions were made. It’s always better to “meat” before you greet because greeting can ruin the moment. My San Diego friend who was staying with us went to the after party, which he described as even better than the original party. How much deep kissing, rubbing, groping, licking, sucking and probing can one man handle? Then, he went to bar parties with even more horny men deep kissing, rubbing, groping, licking, sucking and probing – all of this happened even before the Folsom Street Fair.

The Folsom Street Fair is a celebration of the Leather/BDSm lifestyle and exploring one’s sexual identity. The fair attracted a number of looky-loos, but there were more naked hot guys than usual this year, too. Even one of my sexy playmates from San Diego was hanging quite long while sporting only a cock and ball ring at his first Folsom Fair. The after-Folsom party, Real Bad, was the hardest ticket to come by, but my business partner and San Diego friend managed to score them. I heard the fun and such that went on at Real Bad was really, really bad. There would be more details, but my business partner slept until about 1 p.m. and my San Diego bud who was staying with us didn’t find his way home until late afternoon.

These are the basics but you should fill in the holes with as many deep and dirty details as you can come up with. See ya’ next time In the Pit. To contact me, visit www.gaylesbiantimes.com/links.
