Last night we went out to Hard On for its first outing at its new venue, Hidden.
First impressions were good – lots of powerful air conditioning, lots of bars, some nice chillout areas with comfy seats. Better still was the outside "terrace" complete with some little Thai ladies making Thai food and serving tea & coffee – given this was the first fetish event at Hidden, I dread to think what they made of hundreds of rubber-clad perverts (including several fucking outside if front of the snack bar!).
Sadly, I feel that Hard On is still let down by two things: the new play space is potentially huge, but still only comprises a few slings and fisting stools. You can fist anywhere there’s a fist, an arse and a tub of Crisco – why not use the space to setup a playroom with kit that people don’t normally have access to? A St. Andrew’s cross, vac racks, some electro, bondage wheel?
Secondly, it’s the perennial problem of young perverts – fetish clubs are mainly composed of naked, hairy old men with their cocks hanging out. My main problem with gay men is that they seem to think a manky old jock is sufficient – I tried hard with some very nice rubber jeans and pewter rubber top. In my mind, wearing only a pair of old man pants does not a fetish outfit make. Girls make much more of an effort and look fabulous as a result. Come on boys, please try harder :)
