And of course Queerty finds the absolute twinkiest picture EVER taken at an event like this for the article. lol
·
How do they arrive at this event, walk down the street? subway or taxi? Are there lockers or a place to store your street clothes?
I find this all to be so confounding — what is the attraction to leather? I would feel foolish.
·
LMAO these twinks and guys in the photos don’t know the first thing about actually being “masculine”.
·
Ugh leather has become such a joke these days and has been for the last 30 years.
·
#1, second from the right. YES, 100%. In a heartbeat.
·
#16 on the left is Sam Barclay – British gay pornstar
·
I’ll take 9 & 10. The rest of them you can have…
·
OK that should be pic #17 where the guy is wearing a shirt.

The Pie eating contest was disgusting!
It had men eating whipped cream and other pie fillings out of men’s ass holes and rimming them.
What a way to promote unsafe sex and rimming isn’t safe since you can get HPV-warts, and various strains of Hepatitis that way.

#18 is up my alley… I like them fully clothed.
I know its in our culture to mingle in sexuality and debauchery, but I just feel that these types of events are getting old. I would like to go to ONE gay event where the majority of us are fully clothed. Is that a possibility?

Quite frankly, if these kind of events aren’t for you…don’t come. If you don’t like leather…stop clicking through the photos. If the men aren’t masculine enough for you, fuck someone else. If you feel foolish around leathermen, spend more time getting to know the culture or go away. If the leather culture has gotten too *TOO*, take it back; your lack of leadership has led the community here.
No one is forcing you to spend any time around us. At all. Folsom Street East is part of a day out of the year, on one block, in a city of 8 million people. If you don’t want to hang out, are afraid to hang out, are disgusted, are bored…there is a LOT going on everywhere else in this city. Go there and leave us to our “debauchery.”

Awww I love Mr. Friendly and Friendly Pup! (Pic 17) – Dave is a great guy. Fight the stigma of HIV – join Mr. Friendly on Facebook!

@Charlie:
Why would they need to be masculine??? YOU’RE GAY! Lots of straight men already think you’re not masculine enough or even worth being called a man. Gay machismo is hilarious.
You’re like a man with no legs trying to convince his paraplegic friends that he can do anything a person with two legs can. Get over it, you’ll never come across as straight. Straight men can sniff gays like you out easily.

@Brandon:
There are tons of gay events where everyone is clothed; theater, cocktail parties, awards dinners, outdoor clubs, bowling, family days, gay days at amusement parks, roller skating, church services, book clubs, barbeques, happy hours for professionals, sports teams, formal dances, river cruises, etc.
And this is just in my neck of the woods in upstate NY. You should get out more.
·
@MikeNYC Actually, I know the two on the right, and they’re pretty butch. Even so, you should stop being a toad. Femme-bashing isn’t going to make you any friends here, or anywhere else in this city.
·
Great pics. Very sexy men indeed!

Is a pride parade for gay men the same as Halloween for straight girls? To quote Mean Girls: “Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.”
