In his series Boy and his SIR: BDSM and the Queer Family, Kevin Warth photographs constructed realities in which BDSM practices coexist with domestic and familial rituals.
Warth writes:
“This body of work stems from my disidentification with moderate gay politics, which primarily concerns itself with the legalization of gay marriage and adoption. In response, I question if this normative family structure is a desirable goal for queer relations, or if other modes of kinship are more suitable.”
Oh, and happy Folsom!

I support everyone’s right to engage in any consensual fetish activities they want, but I really don’t get the appeal of the masks and hoods and bizarre head gear. I just can’t fathom why anyone would find that erotic. I get bored watching porn if I can’t see the guys’ faces.

I’ve never heard of people wearing the masks in an actual sexual situation. I’ve only known them to do it in public. Does anyone actually wear the masks behind closed doors for their “masters”?

@jag4313: I love wearing mask to please my top and for deprivation and sensual dispossession.

Sensory deprivation. Hot. What type of mask?

@Glücklich: a leather Sensory Deprivation Bondage Hood

Very nice. A pitch black room suffices for me.

Not my thing, but I saw stuff like this the one time I went to IML. My now husband and I were dragged to it by the mutual friends that got us together (“this way you’ll both know what the other is into” turns out we’re both happily vanilla). Hey, if that’s what you’re into, more power to you.

The thrill of a darkroom, er, dark room…

Pointless and silly pictures masquerading as “art” but the guy who made them is against LGBT rights and same gender marriage.

@Bisexual-Transwoman: Why are you such an awful person? Seriously…why come on here just to be a complete b!tch? I can only guess that it gets you off somehow. Seek therapy.

@Lvng1Tor: “Why are you such an awful person?” Here’s a riddle for you: did you hear about Orlando?

My boyfriend puts a paper bag over my head and staples it in place so it doesn’t fall off. I’m not sure if I’m feeling the deprivation and sensual dispossession though.
