Cowboys Demonstrate Brown Leather Toys

I discovered another very rare vintage gay porn movie that is not the usual format for a porn movie. Even though it came from sometime in the mid-seventies when the “format” for porn movies was still in the process of being developed, this one was an oddity even then. After a few minutes of watching this movie it became this that this is essentially a “demonstration catalog” for leather sex toys. But what makes it even more unusual is that the leather harnesses, ball stretchers, cock rings, etc. being demonstrated are not black leather but brown leather!

Black leather associated with kinky gay sex mostly comes from an aesthetic of urban motorcycle chic with some cross over to military and police uniforms. Back in the 70’s I recall there was more of a distinction between bars and groups that catered to the “Levi/Leather” crowd vs. the “SM Leather” crowd. The scene has changed in that everything has gotten more mainstream and “anything goes”.  The old guard maintained strict dress codes for bars and club events on the pretense of setting a specific erotic tone. Those dress codes were later challenged and dismissed due in part to inclusionary political correctness, and in part a need for expanding creativity.

These leather products were apparently aimed and rural types as well as cowboy wannabes, but the market for erotic leather gear in shades of brown did not catch on. Why? Is there ever any reason why some fashions catch on and others don’t? No! Blame it partially on the avalanche of gays moving out of rural areas to big cities like LA, San Francisco, New York and Chicago in the late 70’s and succumbing to the desire to be chic and urbane rather than country bumpkins.

Without getting too deep into gay history and politics, let’s talk about this particular movie. Richard Locke is one of the hot cowboys that appear in this movie to demonstrate leather gear. You may know him from the big classic Joe Gage movies of the era, LA Tool and Die, Kansas City Trucking and El Paso Wrecking Company. Throughout the 20 minute “motion picture catalog”, each product demonstration is done as it would be in a sex scene. Lots of studded cock cages, things to stretch the balls with hanging weights, often using horse shoes.

Richard Locke and his equally sexy daddy partner make this an unusual visual treat for cowboy fans and hardcore sex toy fans in many interesting scenarios in a barn and out in the corral.

Vintage Gay Porn Fashion Statement

This movie could easily have been forgotten if it wasn’t for one single element that makes it unique – one character wears a pair of jeans covered in giant peace symbols. Clothing like that was a bold fashion statement at a time when the world was only accustomed to standard shapes, muted colors, and patterns limited to subtle checks, plaids and pinstripes. Clothing with outrageous graphics, colors and extreme shapes (bell bottom pants, wide lapel shirts, mini shirts, etc.) arrived in the late 60’s, but many of us couldn’t get ahold of those styles until well into the 70’s.

This movie was probably from the early 1970’s and appears to be from Europe. The movie opens with a brief clip of a bleached blond boy walking down a very European style street and meets a cute brunette who is wearing the peace sign jeans with a wide belt cinched tight to accent his tiny waist. And yes, he does fill out those jeans very nicely.

The blond takes his time seducing unzipping the peace sign jeans and pulling out a nice sized uncut cock. At this point, if you look closely, the blond has long, painted fingernails, also a rarity at the time. He gives a slow, seductive, lip smacking blowjob. He finally gets his own pants off to reveal a cute little pure white butt. He gets bent over the wooden arm of a Danish Modern chair (that would fetch a hefty price from collectors today) to get plowed by the uncut brunette.

The brunette fucks the blond silly and cums on his back. We then see something unusual. Generally at this point there’s a fade-out to the epilogue, and the scene ends. Instead we watch as the blond wipes his back with a cum towel and the top gets dressed again in his peace sign jeans. The brunette smiles and chuckles, then exits shirtless. The blond sits down on the Burnt Orange Danish Modern chair and smacks his lips and rubbing his own uncut cock thinking about the hot fuck he just had. As he stands up to exit and the camera zooms in on the lone cum rag sitting on the chair. Movies don’t often end with a cum rag, even today. Just another oddity that I love about vintage gay porn!

The entire 12 minute scene “Peace Sign Jeans” is available right now in the Vintage Bareback VIP Room.

SF Pride Photos 2003-2009

Saturday, June 26th, 2010 by admin

San Francisco Gay Pride

I just went through my archive of photos from San Francisco Pride from 2003 through 2009. This time I pared it down to just the very best shots to give customers the best user experience possible. VIP Members can view them at LavenderLounge.com in the Paparazzi Pics/Streetfair Skin section.

All photos in the Lavender Lounge VIP Room are viewable as a slide show, too. I was surprised how many naked men and blatant sex was actually happening at the celebration that immediately follows the parade.

Today’s sample photos are from San Francisco Pride 2009, and I will be giving you a sample from each year over the weekend, leading up to NEW photos I will be adding from 2010 San Francisco Pride and Pink Saturday.

James Bidgood Interview

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010 by admin

This is a 2007 interview with the director of Pink Narcissus.

Pink Narcissus

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010 by admin

Pink Narcissus is a 1971 drama film by James Bidgood visualizing the erotic fantasies of a gay male prostitute.

Between visits from his keeper, or john, a handsome male prostitute (Bobby Kendall), alone in his apartment, lounges, fantasizing about worlds where he is the central character. For example, he pictures himself as a matador, a Roman slave boy and the emperor who condemns him, and the keeper of a male harem for whom another male performs a belly dance.

The movie is mostly shot on 8 mm film with bright, otherworldly lighting. Aside from its last, climactic scene, which was shot in a downtown Manhattan loft, it was produced in its entirety (including outdoor scenes) in Bidgood’s small New York apartment over a seven year (from 1963 to 1970) period and ultimately released without the director’s consent who therefore had himself credited as Anonymous.

It was not widely known who had created the movie, and there were rumors that Andy Warhol was behind it. In the mid-1990s, writer Bruce Benderson, who was obsessed with the film, began a search for its maker based on several leads and finally verified that it was James Bidgood, who was still living in Manhattan and was working on a film script. In 1999, a book researched and written by Benderson was published by Taschen about Bidgood’s body of photographic and filmic work.

Bidgood’s unmistakable kitschy style has later been imitated and refined by artists such as Pierre et Gilles.

Dungeon of Terror

Another movie I will be using on my upcoming vintage fetish DVD will be this scene from “Dungeon of Terror“. This movie, unlike the the one I premiered yesterday, “Brutal Leather Daddies“, features fetish models that really know what they are doing. In fact, they are so versed in the infliction of pain, that alone is terrifying.

It takes place in a well-appointed leather man’s play room, otherwise known as a “dungeon”, with tons of tools of torture adorning the walls. Since most playrooms like this are located in a suburban residential basement (next to the washer and dryer) the term “dungeon” is fitting.

Two beefy, hairy leather daddies lead their slaves into the room on leashes while a third naked boy watches with his hands tied over his head. Each is subjected to bizarre forms of punishment for unspeakable crimes of some sort. (“You didn’t wash the dishes, now you’re going to be put on the rack and paddled, you naughty, naughty boy!”) The punishment includes, spanking, whipping, hot candle wax on the nipples, fisting and sucking.

But my favorite type of torture is shown in is this free clip above. A naked, long-haired blond boy is shackled by the hands and feet to a metal bracket that is raised and lowered by a big hand crank. The dominants then spin him around and spank his ass on every revolution.

Not one of my favorite fantasy scenes, but it’s visually interesting for it’s weirdness alone.

Survey: Do You Watch Porn On Your Phone?

Monday, June 21st, 2010 by admin

porn on cell phones

The survey for this month is about whether or not you watch porn on your phone. Take a look at the upper right corner of the page and please cast your vote.

The porn industry has been talking about this new untapped market of porn users on mobile phones for years and years. I’m still not convinced there is any money to be made from it yet, so I want to hear from consumers. I actually put the question on all three of my sites, Lavender Lounge, Muscle Bear Cub and Vintage Bareback. So for the results are small, but it’s clear that users are NOT watching porn on their phones – at least not yet.

Why it that?

-Screen sizes of phones are too small.

-Phone connections are too slow or unpredictable.

-Not enough gay porn sites are optimized for phones.

-”I have an iPhone and most gay porn videos won’t play.” (Flash video doesn’t work on iPhones).

The videos on my websites are all done in Flash, so in order to get them to work on iPhones and iPads, I’d have to create separate files just for Apple users and pay a programmer to make it work on my site. Before I go through all that, I want to see if it is worth it.

Besides voting in the survey on the top left, you can also leave you Comments below.

Thanks, guys!



Brutal Leather Daddies

Monday, June 21st, 2010 by admin

This movie had no titles or credits and came in a plain white box when I found it as an 8mm film. I named it “Brutal Leather Daddies” because there is no other way to describe it. I must be from the early 1970’s because it was quite primitive in many ways, and not only in film making technique.

I get a sense that the sex play was as amateur as the director, if there even was a director. It appeared to be mostly a stationary camera on a tripod, and as characters came and went out of the frame, I assume one of the players was running the camera as well.

There are four manly, hairy, big dick daddies in this movie, with only one as the battered submissive, and boy, does he get battered. The phrase “Safe, Sane, Consensual” as the leathermen’s code did not come into widespread use until much later, and scenes like this are what lead to pleas for self-regulation and safety concerns in the leather community.

Just like bodybuilding, there is good pain and bad pain. If you lift weights with good technique you’ll “feel the burn” of muscles growing, but if you your technique is sloppy, you’ll injury yourself. Same with sex play. If you know what you’re doing, the pain feels good. If not, the “ahhs” turn to “ouches” and screams of “get me out of here!”

For true S&M fans, the mark a good movie is seeing real terror in the guy’s face, and “faking it” is frowned upon. In this movie, the guy is in real pain, and not all of it is the “good” pain.

In their clumsy, awkward way, these daddies strip down a buff and hairy guy in his late 30’s and work over every inch of him in as many blood curdling and disgusting ways their inexperienced minds could conjure. They squeeze his nipples with clothes pins, drip hot candle wax on his ass, shove dildos in him without preparation, paddle him, fist him and piss in his face. Though the bad guys are dressed in classic leather jackets, boots, and mustaches and really look the part of the 1970’s leather daddy. Their fetish technique, however, proves otherwise. But keep in mind, movies like this taught an entire generation and inspired a multitude of evil geniuses to “do a better job”.

A glaring example of inexperience comes just from the location – a boring bedroom scene with a twin bed. You’ll never see a Titan movie with four big leather guys on a single bed with a mushy mattress and bedspread. (What heavy leather movie has a bedspread!?) But the kicker for me was the piss scene on the same bed with an oriental rug on the floor! Anyone with experience in golden showers (or two brain cells in their head) knows that if you piss on a bed, you pretty much gotta throw it out afterward! I think they figured that out part way through filming, because for the big finale, they did move to the bathroom to finish him off. After fisting the poor guy while straddled over the edge of clawfoot tub (not a comfortable position for any length of time) he gets shoved in the tub for a real golden shower from a big dick daddy.

Piss in a bathtub can be washed away easily, but the stains on your retinas from this movie cannot.
