"Who is Robert Mapplethorpe and what is his significance to the leather community?"
There was a room full of quizzical looks. "Hang on", said one, "He was the guy from the Village People." "No," said another,"He was an artist who introduced leather to the mainstream, and is most famous for his Tom of Finland drawings".
I had to leave the room in a hurry.
Other than that incident of laughing till I went purple, the inaugural Mr Urge Leather competition went fantastically. We followed much the same format as Bears- 2 rounds of question and answer time with the judges, followed by raffle ticket sales. I think everyone had a great time, and we raised $800 for Body Positive.
I also managed to bid for and win a pair of Dr Wildbore's boots. The plan was to start the bidding and get things going- I think most people were a bit wierded out by bidding on Matt's shoes- but as it turned out no-one else was brave enough to put their hand up. Whoops.
