Shiny happy people

Project Latex Land is a photographic rubber reverie
From Hour.ca

This Friday, for one night only, you can enter the fantasy world of a latex enthusiast, somebody who likes (as in really likes) to wear rubber. Project Latex Land is a first-time collaboration by Montreal fetish and glamour photographers Gil Perron and Martin Perreault. In the eight oversize mise-en-scène photographs, friends have a barbeque in the backyard, construction workers jackhammer downtown, and grocery shoppers buy hamburger buns... but all in second-skin pants, thigh-high boots and rubber masks. There's also a lot more tits and ass than at your regular weekday 5 à 7.

Life in Project Latex Land might look shocking, but it's not supposed to be. Instead, the photos explore a brightly coloured, tight-fitting castle in the sky for latex lovers. "Most enthusiasts have a deep desire to wear fetish gear in everyday places," explains Perron, "and that's what Project Latex Land is about. For one guy in our photos, a university professor from Sweden, it was the first time he wore his latex in public. The photo shoot was his rubber coming-out party."

Montreal, a city with a sizable latex lover population, was the perfect place to create a bizarro rubber reality. Perron and Perreault put out an open call for participants over the Internet. All of the people in the photos are true-to-life fetishists from Montreal and around the world. Most are wearing their own rubber in the photos. Polymorphe, a famed Montreal latex designer, styled the rest in homegrown minis, corsets and one-piece
suits.

The project, which Perron dreamed up one afternoon over lunch, was a chance for both artists to try something new. For Perreault especially, a photographer best known for his photos of Montreal fetish sex symbol Bianca Beauchamp, it was a chance to try his hand at directing a photo shoot with up to 40 rubberists. But for both artists, Project Latex Land was, well, a whole lot of good clean fun.

So would Perron and Perreault want to live in the fantasy world they created? "No," they laugh. "You can't live in a daydream," smiles Perreault. Plus, there are practical setbacks. "Latex is a tough material to wear year-round," adds Perron. "It gets too cold here in the winter; it's also hard to wear latex when it's really hot." Try telling that to the guy in one photo, who's sliding headfirst into a kiddie pool in heels and hot pants.

I wish I could have timed my visit to this weekend, but alas, it was impossible. The latex weekend sponsored by Fetiche Store and Polymorphe tied into Pride Weekend which followed up this event would have been interesting to see as well. Maybe. As much as I like to see anyone in rubber, it's the men in skintight latex that do it for me, personally!

Inside a Balloon

Here is a great balloon vacuumization video. I love balloon bondage, but it's hard to find balloons that will withstand the stresses of vacuumization with my tall frame. I've heard there are specially-designed balloons of larger volume, but I have yet to buy any.

More breathplay

After talking with Lycrasi on YM today (who is one of the perviest breathplayers I know), I was all horned up to do the Pin sessions and decided to run a condom breathplay video again. It's not that great, but breathplay is always a blast!

"I love the way rubber feels," says a latex lover, "all smooth and tight against my naked body. Very tight. It makes me hot, it makes me damp...and hot and damp are good things to be."
Sure, leather is the premier fetish material, but these days rubber gear is gaining fast. It's not just the simple stuff, like black rubber bodysuits, T-shirts and shorts. They look good, of course, in a kinky, no-place-to-hide-a-faulty-figure way -- you, too, can play Catboy at the next Batman costume party. But that's just for starters. A trip to a well-stocked fetish store will reveal a dazzling array of latex stuff.

There's fetishwear, of course: lace-up rubber corsets, jockstraps, over-the-knee socks, black opera-length latex gloves just perfect for...well, whatever calls for long rubber gloves. None of this comes cheap; good rubber chaps can set you back nearly $300 (U.S.), a rubber bondage suit around three times that. And not only is rubberwear rather costly, it is, compared to sturdy, durable ol' leather, a bear to care for; it's not just kinkwear, it's a commitment. (And incompatible with oil-based lubes, too.)

When rubberfans want to play, they've got a wide choice of made-for-kink sex toys. Rubber bondage collars and restraints, clones of their cowhide cousins, are just perfect for that vegan bottomboy who'll surrender his ass, but not his principles. And then it gets even kinkier. Rubber gags with cock-shaped attachments. Full-head hoods with mouth tubes. Some top-of-the-line toys take advantage of rubber's unique properties; there's an inflatable hood, and a double-wall, full-body bondage bag that can be inflated like a wrap-around air mattress, leaving the bottom not only restrained, but floating inside a kinky cushion. (Though rubber fetishism always seemed to many of us to be a particularly British kink, much of this fancy gear is made in Holland. Go figure.)

Less specialized rubber gear has its fans, too. Firemen's outfits, fishermen's rubber waders, even scuba diving wetsuits – it's all butch fantasy material for rubberlovers. "As a child, I always liked firemen," one guy reminisces, and some things never change. Unlike black leather, with its Bad Biker aura, slinky latex fetishwear has a more androgynous appeal, but clomping around in a waterproof sewer worker's outfit just reeks of working-class masculinity.

The plain old gas mask, available cheap at your army-navy store of choice, is a favorite toy of many. Concealing all but the eyes, filtering the free flow of breath, it has that dehumanized look so fashionable in today's stylish dungeons. In fact, loss of individuality is part of rubber's appeal. Heavy bondage and rubber, it seems, are just natural allies; fetish magazines are replete with photos of men completely cocooned in shiny skin-tight prisons. Once enclosed in what one writer calls "latex utopia," a bottom loses all individuality. "I crave that feeling of separation from the outside world, that all-over restriction," says a hunky enthusiast who loves being a latex mummy.

And for a space-age rubber look, there's liquid latex, which brushes onto the body, drying to a second skin with, as one manufacturer puts it, "a sensual, tight feeling." The stuff can create fantastic, multi-colored, nearly-naked effects. It even comes in day-glo colors that shine under black light.

At base, any fetish is impervious to logic. Some guys are turned on by gleaming black leather, others by a bright yellow raincoat. The smell, look and feel of rubber just makes some men's dicks hard. Whether you think it's dorky or divine, stretching the bounds of sexiness or just stretchy, hankering for rubber, it appears, is here to stay.

Prairie Pervin'

I was in Saskatchewan this past weekend and was able to find a few hours to get into as remote a spot as I could find (not hard in rural Canada). I wanted to get some outdoor photos and video done and as you can see I am pretty happy with the outcome! I wish I had had the time to apply polish and move the camera from south facing to north facing, but alas the opportunity is done. I'll have to get an assistant to help out the next time! ;-)

Contraction

I've been feeling like I've been 'putting myself' out on the Internet a bit too much lately, especially considering I've recently started a new, high-profile job and some of the most recent perv studio shots I did were full facial, which I had avoided most of the time up to now. I think the liberalness of my attitude over the summer and during my holidays led me to post things that I would not normally (I know -- such a prude for being such a perv). I've decide to remove or suspend a few of my profiles including the Multiply site, Dudesnude and Myspace. I was finding there was so much duplication between sites that it was just becoming a waste of time, so I decided to shed those ones from which I have had the most interaction with others. The Ning sites are still going strong as are, as always, Gearfetish and Rubberzone.
