Mr. B and I went to our first Fetish Fair yesterday. What an experience!! There was a masquerade ball after that he said he would actually take me too if I wanted to go. WOW, but I was not up for that. I like my spanking and would like to join the local group and we probably will eventually, but I'm not ready or willing to go into the dungeon type scene or all the other things that can go on there, electrical, bondage, ropes, etc.
BUT the fair itself had very very nice items and well made. For the ladies some of the corsets were absolutely gorgeous. The cloaks for the ladies and shoes and boots, OH MY. But our purchase was a wonderful hand tooled deer skin suede flogger. I have never felt anything so yummy. With this one Mr. B had to work a little harder at it because it does not leave that immediate sting, but over some time, I was quite a nice pink after we got home.
As the afternoon progressed the people coming to the fair became more and more eccentric in their dress. When Mr. B saw the young man in the coret and heels, he was .......!!!!!!!!
The two things we did do in a demo situation was double flogging. They used chairs and the instructor individually helped those that needed some one on one. It was quite interesting. Mr. B got the 1, 2, 3 count down but not the 4th count. Which is OK I'll take 1 and 2, I don't need perfection. 1,2; 1,2; 1,2; thats fine with me.  A couple brave ladies even offered up their bottoms for demos. Not me!!
Then we stopped at the bondage area and walked in to see what was happening there. The rope work was quite excellent. One lady was walking around in a bra and pants with ropes tied all over for easy movement. Another man with a g-string was tied up in ropes also. The ropes and knots were quite intricate. But why would someone just be tied up in ropes, but still be able to move or do whatever they wanted? I was confused at this one, but certainly not willing to ask.
Another one that was on the list was D/s contracts. Mr. B and I did not go to that one as we don't have a contract, but I bet it would have been interesting. It was about, how to and when to enter into a contract. Who has the say. When the sub can or should have some input. When the contract should be changed. I bet that was quite interesting and I saw the room empty, it was heavily attended. Another one was on meeting new people safely, which was also heavily attended.
If you ever have a chance anyone to go to anything like this do so. The people were very very nice and friendly and there was so much to see, do and hear.
One thing NOT TO DO is pull your Top/Dom away from an area with not nice toys by his belt loops saying you don't need any of those. OOOPS did I do that - yep. OH MY. He told me I was going back to the table and appologize for my behavor, but he took pitty on me after scaring me half to death and did not make me because it would have been so embarassing. BUT I don't think I'll ever do that again.
Mr. B was actually very tolerant with my many NO's in response to what type of toy I wanted him to buy me. He'd say no is not an option but in a nice sort of way until we decided on the soft suede flogger. I actually experienced through watching other people the interaction of Master/slave in just talking to one another. He in the seat and her on the floor before him. Also the greetings between people who knew each other and the formality and courtesy of hugs and Sirs going around.
THERE WAS NOT 1 BRAT or bratting going on in the whole place.
I suppose many of you who are more into all of this, my post may seem sort of silly, but for someone who is just into spanking, like me and never experienced any of this it was quite an eventful afternoon. I'll go to another one in a minute.
Does anyone else have any interesting experiences from a Fetish Fair like this one, or other meetings? It was very interesting and an eye opener.

Bondage can be for the purpose of restraining someone, or to bring out the submissive nature in a person. Just the feel of the ropes on their bodies can bring some subs to orgasm.
I would love to attend a fetish fair, maybe once I move to Georgia. It seems like a lot of fun. 
You tried to drag Mr.B by the belt loops Ann? Your lucky he didnt spank you right then and there...he could have done so and nobody would have noticed! Seems you were the only brat there. 
If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you.

I was not a brat at all, I was actually too reserved to do much of anything but look, listen and take it in. But he was standing by a table full of wood and canes. What would you have done????????
Oh - believe me he did try a couple floggers out on my bottom before deciding which to buy.

Beachley,
How very brave of you. We have some here in NY but I ahve always been afraid I would see someone I know so we don't go. W says if they are there they have just as much to hide as we do but I am still afraid.
As for pulling Mr. B by the belt loops again how brave. I know if I did that W would have spanked me right there with my panties down. No if and or buts (actually it would be my butt)
Love can't always be seen or hear but will always be felt with your heart

Does anyone have a links list to when and where these are? WE live in NY, but are willing to go on a road trip for fun reasons- If anyone hears about one, please share! |

Thats why Bethie started the Announcements section Celticbratt, so we could hear about events ahead of time. We're trying to get more groups to let us link to them so we can hook people up.

before buying them. |

Fetish Fairs are fun!
I went to one several years ago with some friends. One particular shop we were looking around had a prison strap for sale. Man was that thing huge! I just had to let the salesman try it out on me.  |
