Fetish Men is BACK with our Monthly Fetish Social at the Eagle! This month, we are taking advantage of the events already happening that lead up to International Mr. Leather 40 and International Mr. Bootblack 26 next weekend! Join FMSD from 9 to Midnight at the San Diego Eagle for our Gear Social! We will have a few bootblacks present to tend to your Leather and Gear, Doriam and Odin will be behind the bar slingin' drinks, and you'll get the chance to hang out with your Brothers in Leather! It's also
#JockstrapFriday so when it gets a little warm in your gear, you can check your gear into the back and strut your stuff! If you are so inclined, you can support our local Leather boys San Diego organization
by purchasing Jello Shots for $1/each! This is a great opportunity to bring out the gear you get at the Swap Meat and get it tended to by our community Bootblacks!

Kickers @ Urban Mo's

Description: Greenhorn is this year's Mr. San Diego Leather's major project in trying to make Leather more visible and inclusive to Leatherfolk under the age of 35 and People of Color! Each month, Doriam will host a Leather takeover at traditionally queer spaces (Mo's, Flicks, the Rail, etc.) to draw attention to our Leather community and to welcome people who may otherwise have had no idea the community exists!
The event is open to EVERYONE, with the primary focus being the enrollment of people who have felt alone in our spaces! For more information, email
MisterSDL2018@GMail.com and follow
Mr. San Diego Leather 2018, Doriam Couto on Facebook!
IV: Workshop Recap!
Here's one of two new sections to the blog! A minor recap of our last workshop. This month we did a Food Play and Gunge (aka Wet&Messy) workshop led by Doriam! Won't go into too much detail, but here are a few photos for you!
We might have made Doriam into a Human Sundae... and it looks like he hated every minute of it.
V: Member Submissions
This is another new section for us, if you have an ad, shout out, etc. you'd like to include into the blog posts, you can email
DoriamFMSD@GMail.com or
FetishMenSanDiego@GMail.com and we will do our best to include them! This includes anything leading to personal blogs, reaching out to brothers for individual meetups or trying to schedule events!
VI: From ME to YOU
It's been a while since I did this, but From ME to YOU is back! I just wanted to say thank you to each of you who have supported me and Fetish Men San Diego along the way! It's been a great adventure so far, and I'm so proud to see the growth of this organization over the last year and a half.
This part is where I often babble about whatever is coming up on my end of the world so that it doesn't come up as a surprise. Right now, I am working on my Pin Run project which features my years hashtag, #LetsWalkTogether, for more information follow the hashtag link. Pins are $8 each and +$3 S&H. This goes to support Our Safe Place, a branch of San Diego Youth Services, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the SDLP2018 and SDLP2019 Titleholder Funds.
Additionally, Shilo and I have our personal title project to Reclaim, Restore, and Redistribute Leather with a History. Throughout the year, we will be partnering with Thrift Stores and local Leatherfolk to hear the stories of the Leather that they have collected over time, and bring new life and love to them. If you, or someone you know, has Leather or Fetish Gear that they no longer want/need, please have them reach out to me (MisterSDL2018@GMail.com) and I would love to find new homes for their gear. As a part of this movement, we try to get a bit of information about the history of the Leather's owner(s) so it can be shared with the new recipient.
Please feel free to reach out if you want to know more about any of these things!
