&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Leather Outlaws is a Portland-based kink and BDSM group now forming for trans folk and their allies -- basically, anyone for whom the binary gender system is just a starting point and not a limit, and the people who like to play with them. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We'll be meeting at the same time and place as the Whipper-Snappers munch. (They often meet outside on the picnic tables, and we often meet inside unless it's warm.To find us most efficiently, look for our chihuahua accomplice.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;To sign onto the Leather Outlaws mailing list, visit groups.yahoo. com/group/ LeatherOutlaws/
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Vanguard is produced by two leather dykes, Lady Hilary and The Marine, each with 15+ years of experience in the SF leather community. They have been in a 24/7 D/s relationship for 7 years and would like to share the passion of a joyous Leather Path with you. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The experience of Vanguard is not like an evening workshop, nor is it like a run or event weekend, the retreat is focused on the whole person; your heart, head, sex and how they each relate to who you are as a leather man or woman. Vanguard is a personalized immersion weekend experience diving into your self.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Greetings all.. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just thought I would remember my manners and post a brief introduction. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Name is Trish... Ms.Trish... Tho I also get referred to as " The Jewelry Lady, The one with the big hands, The REALLY tall femme over there, Wide Load... " and I've been called a host of things in bed.. do those count? (smile) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm tall at 6'1, bi-racial, have recently stopped ( as my sistas at mich fest say ) "trying to assimilate" by chemically relaxing my hair. So it is currently a curly freaking beast. ( see pics for beast confirmation..lol ) I'll be 42 years old in two weeks.. have green eyes.. and am Femme Top Identified.. ( interpret that in all the necessary lewd ways.. ) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What are my Deal Breakers? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;People who do not understand the word "EXCESSIVE" 
&lt;br/&gt;Drunk Dykes = NOT attractive 
&lt;br/&gt;Excessive / Habitual Drug Use = NOT attractive 
&lt;br/&gt;Poor Body Hygiene = EXTREMELY unattractive 
&lt;br/&gt;Excessive smoking = NOT attractive 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Violence (Physical or Verbal) is not only UNattractive, but can be hazardous to your health. Cuz if you put your hands on Me... it will take the Grace of the Goddess to save your sorry f*cking ass. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A curvy BBW who spends more time in dresses &amp;amp; heels than pants. Do not be fooled.. have strap on and know how to use it. I guess those that know me would say I'm a D/s Dominant..who really likes a service oriented bottom/submissive. Not really into brats, spoiled girls, SAMs or EXTREMELY heavy masochists. I like a sub/bottom whose basic nature is to be pleasing..and to be of service. IN and out of bed.. My basic belief is that is if there is an opening.. I should have something in it.. (smile) OK was that TMI ? lol 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Note to self... " Not everyone needs to know you are a penetration whore". &amp;amp;lt;Grin&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;IM attracted to Bois, and butch bottoms most strongly. Though those that are more androg have set my heart a flutter too. I'm a lesbian.. so by definition, Im seeking a female. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I live by the beach just south of SF in california... land of the freaks, perverts and queers. But its ok.. I'm an admitted pervert, and lesbian. And those that have known me intimately might even call me a freak.. ( wink ) 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Why am I here? I guess I'm here becuz I think trying new things is good. Maybe I'll meet some like minded people and we'll become good friends. Maybe I'll meet that bottom/boi that complements all my kinky perversions just right. Either way.. I intend to enjoy myself along the way. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Pet Peeves: Pet peeves. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Bad body hygiene.. I mean if I can smell you, why can't you smell yourself. sheesh.. 
&lt;br/&gt;Fruit of the loom briefs on bois.. I mean come on.. they arent cute..LOL Now boxer briefs in colors ARE cute. They hug cute asses and give the illusion of ass to those with none.. (smile) 
&lt;br/&gt;Farting.. no matter how much I love you. I don't wanna smell your farts, or for that matter, that foul stench in the bathroom when you are done. OPEN a window and spray some air freshner! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm a big grrl... always have been, tho trying to be a bit smaller these days.. it's a work in progress. Putting my 7x ass into airline seats was getting to be an issue. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Getting my current 3/4x ass into airline seats is still an issue... WTF is up with the seats? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Net nerd for a living.. I own and run a dozen lifestyle ( queer &amp;amp; kinky ) websites. My baby is PureTNT (www.puretnt.com/) which has 250+ styles of Kinky jewelry. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I have 3 fur kids ( ferrets ) and prolly need to attend some kinda 12 step program to get my ebay shopping under control.. lol 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Don't be shy.. say hello... I like to think Im easy to talk to.. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Trish ( owner www.puretnt.com/) 
&lt;br/&gt;250+ styles of BDSM Jewelry

&lt;br/&gt;i'm looking for folks in the sf bay area who are planning on going to dore alley or folsom, who enjoy needle play, and are looking for someone to poke for either/both weekends. i'm up for friendly play or something more serious if it works out. i'm a bottom, masochist, and i enjoy needles. ideally i'd like to wear/help create an amazing piece of some wicked needle aficionado (wouldn't we all?). 
&lt;br/&gt;contact me if this interests you.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hey All,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I finally got a few minutes to post a review of the first Lezbi Inn at Power Exchange. It's all women first Thursday of the Month, first one was last Thursday.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My date for the night and I got right to playing for a couple of hours and there was a parade of folks looking into the playroom on the 3rd floor (the only floor that was women only) as we played. Many a raised eyebrow.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I was the only Butch Top present and the only other couple that played were a Femme and Butch Bottom.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;After we finished up we were shocked to find that all of the other women were in the other room playing "Spin The Bottle/Truth or Dare".
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Much to our surprise the crowd broke up when we sat down to play. We scared them off!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Truthfully, the whole scene looked like it was right out of "The L Word". We had fun pointing to folks and figuring out who they looked like.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The playspace is great, even if most of the women clearly had never been to a sex party. The rest of the floors were open to us also for mixed fun.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There's potential here, even if on a Thursday night. We will be returning in force next month and invite others to join us. If nothing more our scene should be fun to watch. Hell, I'm working a 24 hour shift on the rig immediately following the party!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please come out and support some women only space!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;--- G&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm looking for anyone that is part of either/any trans/women's/queer leather community that is willing to talk to me about their experience in the community.  I'm working on my senior thesis, which will examine the collective identity/boundary work of the trans and women's leather community.  so if you've got something to say i want to hear it.  and just think, you'll be helping further more random academic research, which is of course always in service of the greater community :)  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;details:  roughly an hour interview, completely anonymous, recorded for accuracy, in a relaxed atmosphere (aka café of yoru choice) with complementary coffee/tea/beverage of your choice.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;if you're interested you can contact me at: ecgrae@hotmail.com
&lt;br/&gt;Thanks!  and feel free to re-post/pass on to relevant persons/places.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Dark Knight at the Citadel
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm very happy to announce the return of Dark Knights parties, thanks to the opening of The Citidel in San Francisco. (And wish much luck to the old friends who run it!) O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! A place to hold 
&lt;br/&gt;parties again! This will mark the 10th anniversary of Dark Knights parties.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You are invited to the next Dark Knights Party - Saturday, Feb. 7th, at The Citidel in San Francisco. Doors are 8 - 11 pm, admission is $20/person, $35/couple; please wear black or fetish-wear. All genders and orientations 
&lt;br/&gt;are welcome, as usual.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Food and (soft) drink will be provided, and there is plenty of parking near the party space. Guests are welcome as long as you vouch for them, and include their names/pseudonyms in your RSVP. Work exchange is available -- and I need people for every shift, every job right now -- DM's, door, check-in, set-up and clean-up.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;RSVP to DarkKnight@ChaosMedia.com or (650) 483-1740, with your name (or scene name), and those of any guests you might bring. (Email is preferred mode!) Your rsvp will be confirmed. Please mention if you need directions. (I may not get to confirming rsvp's until the week before 
&lt;br/&gt;the party -- please be patient.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;(It's ok for you to pass the "DarkKnight@ChaosMedia.com" address out to people who might be interested in getting more info about the party, and it's ok to re-post this notice to closed lists - please do! Just have them mention you/how they heard about DK, and I'll politely interrogate them from there.)
