		<description>@No. 34 · scott ny&#039;er : S/M sexuality is far more individual  and private; I don&#039;t think that people would publicly engage in something so intense.

 I don&#039;t get the title &quot;Conservative Scarefest&quot; implication.  Other than that political consevatives abuse people for economic reasons but that&#039;s not the idea here.</description>

		<description>How fitting in one picture you sum up the very reasons the homosexual community will never be accepted by the mainstream.

To allow such behavior, committed in public, to define your movement is all I need to ensure that homosexuality will continue to be considered a perversion of all that is acceptable.</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-221279&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Charles Merrill&lt;/a&gt;: 

Yeah you did, I&#039;m not sure why that was aimed at you instead of Fitz?

Who I HOPE goes on all those straight sites saying the same stuff! Considering that it&#039;s bigger with straight people to be deviant in bed and dress up!

I&#039;m actually reading &#039;Venus in Furs&#039; by Leopold Von Sacher-Masoch

The term &#039;Masochistic&#039; was defined in the late 17th century after this dude Leopold.

Furthermore, if you read &#039;Venus&#039; OR any of his books, there is NO mention of gays-at all! Simply the sadistic submissive vs controlling sexual relationship between women-the controllers and men-the submissives.

So erm Fitz...use your energies against straights-they started it! Even D H Lawrence or E M Forster (Same centuries) couldn&#039;t come up with anything as close to the bone when they wrote about man on man action...

Actually, sorry to be educated about this but the whole concept of S&amp;M was significant because of the female-dom and male-sub roles, in a society were Men have to be in control and power and were women must just smile and not be &#039;seen&#039;, therefore the sexual high came from this &#039;role reversal&#039;..

So really with men on men, it&#039;s not as offensive, mysogonistic or powerful. In facts it&#039;s so personal to the couple that to me, doesn&#039;t really offend me. There is more of an equalness there..</description>

		<description>ok. i actually went thru all the pictures. Cupcake hat was hilarious. Love it.

Dude in last picture is beautiful.

It looks like a fun, interesting event. I have a straight friend in SF who&#039;s been to it and I was like, WHAT? But it&#039;s like the Halloween parade in NYC, lots of tourists. It becomes a tourist attraction more than an S&amp;M event, it seems. I&#039;ve got to check it out sometime.</description>

		<description>I used to work near Folsom st. It&#039;s a fun event even if though pretty corny. Glad to see someone still representing from the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.</description>

		<description>These guys are celebrating an important party of human sexuality.  The only thing historically that has made sex &quot;nice&quot; is Religion, and a denial of passion. All good sex is S/M to a degree otherwise you would enjoy somkeone falling asleeop having sex with you.. Like some of us are put together gay we also have particular sexual proclivities beyond fetishes, that relate to them.  Like all sex, it has to do with power relations.</description>

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-220973&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Charles Merrill&lt;/a&gt;: Yeah, because straight people at talkgating parties, or spring break or just about anywhere else, behave like Ozzie and Harriet. 

Dude, people wear all kinds of hats. Sometimes, people are sex pigs. Sometimes, people are well-behaved professionals. And sometimes they&#039;re political activists. 

Why do you have a problem with that? I suspect you have &quot;issues.&quot;</description>

The guy in the black jeans in #5 is most definitely not Adam Lambert&#039;s boyfriend.  (His bf is the tall black guy in the back of the photo).  Also, he&#039;s Canadian and from Winnipeg.  I&#039;ll let him know that you guys think he&#039;s hot.</description>

It&#039;s an adult gay fetish party on a public street in SF.  Period.</description>

		<description>It has always baffled me how people do this stuff.  I would be more worried about losing my job than showing off my disco stick in the street.  And in San Francisco, on of the most expensive cities in the country, how do these people live these lifestyles while affording to survive?</description>

		<description>By far, and by far I mean from here to the sun, the best published photo set of the fair I have seen.  Hats off to whomever took the time to put this together.  But ONLY hats off, in my case.</description>

		<description>No. 7 · kevin vancouver: So very strange that people concerned about human equality regardless of sexuality, know  0  about human sexuality.  Sad: I accept even the  ignorant queens in the movement as part of our community.</description>

		<description>My super bitchy neighbor was getting ready for weeks for Folsom Street Fair. Modeling one sleazy outfit after another out on her balcony. Making potential costumes by spray painting epaulets and stretching leather straps and forcing her self into rubber garments. It was worth you tubing. But I didn’t.  It does prove however that most of the fair is about some kind of image that is usually not backed up with any substance. My neighbor drops a purse every time he speaks and it sounds like steam escaping. I don’t think I have ever heard him say something that wasn’t 100% gossip or trashing someone. I’m sure he got lots of attention at the fair because he looks like a total top. At home though it’s the helium heels syndrome. LOL.</description>

		<description>I forgot to add that my point was that the Ann Arbor &#039;Naked Mile&#039; got cancelled due to uptight right-wingers who didn&#039;t even live in the city in question, but they made a stink and ruined the harmless fun.  There&#039;s my analogy.</description>

		<description>LOL, back at the start of this decade I lived 1 1/2 blocks from the fairs location.  Once I was going home on MUNI from work and these two doofus&#039; in assless chaps, one of &#039;em on a leash, wanted to get on the bus to get to the Folsom Fair, but the bus had toddlers present.  Thankfully the bus driver told them they couldn&#039;t get on and they walked off in a huff.

I&#039;m not against the fair at all, I&#039;ve been twice and found it to be a relaxed and fun event, but all it takes is the small few with too little brain functioning to ruin something for all potentially.</description>

		<description>Folsom fair is a collection of narcissists and fetishists.  It&#039;s got nothing to do with gay rights.  In fact, I&#039;d go so far as to say that many of those who attend Folsom don&#039;t give a rat&#039;s about gay rights.

It&#039;s just as tacky as the Playboy Mansion.</description>
