Alright, so listen up, y’all. I’m gonna tell ya ’bout this thing, this… whatchamacallit… LA Leather Getaway. Yeah, that’s it. Sounds fancy, don’t it? But lemme tell ya, it ain’t all highfalutin’ like them city folks make it sound.
First off, they got this CLAW thing. Sounds like somethin’ a cat would do, scratchin’ and all. But no, it’s some kinda big group, doin’ good deeds I reckon, ’cause they say it’s a charity. They’re the ones puttin’ on this whole shebang.
Now, this Getaway, it ain’t no picnic in the park. Well, maybe it is if your kinda picnic involves… leather. Lots and lots of leather. Think boots, jackets, maybe even… well, never you mind. They got workshops, they call ‘em “skills education sessions.” More than a hundred, they say! Learn how to do lord knows what with all that leather. Probably makin’ belts and such. Or maybe… somethin’ else. City folks are strange, I tell ya.
And the shoppin’! They call it a “kinky vendor mart.” Kinky! Can you believe it? Sounds like somethin’ outta a dime store novel. But I bet they got some good sturdy stuff there, belts that’ll last ya a lifetime, boots that can take a beatin’. Not like that flimsy stuff they sell at the mall.
- They got workshops, more than a hundred of ‘em! Learnin’ stuff, I guess.
- They got a big market, sellin’ all kinds of leather goods, even the “kinky” kind. Whatever that means.
- They got parties and socials. City folks sure do love to mingle.
- And food! Dinners and such. Hope they got some good ol’ comfort food, not just that fancy stuff you can’t even pronounce.
They even got somethin’ called the Tom of Finland Festival. Now that’s a name that’ll make ya raise an eyebrow. Sounds like a fella who likes his… leather. They got exhibitors, programs, demonstrations. Probably showin’ off all kinda leather things, from saddles to… well, who knows what else. Like I said, city folks are a different breed.
This Getaway, it ain’t just a one-day thing neither. It’s a whole weekend! A “fetish focused weekend” they call it. Fetish? There’s that word again. Must be some kinda city folk lingo. But they say it won’t disappoint. And I reckon if you’re into leather and all that, it probably won’t. They got classes, dinners, parties, the whole nine yards. Even a “vendor mart,” like a fancy flea market, but with more… leather.
They also have a big dinner, the International Leather Family Dinner. Family, huh? Guess even leather-clad folks need a sense of community. And they got a speaker, somebody important I guess. Someone who knows a thing or two about… well, you guessed it, leather.
This whole thing happens in Los Angeles, in a big fancy hotel. The Westin Bonaventure, they call it. Sounds like a place where you gotta wear your Sunday best, even if your Sunday best is made of, you know… leather. And it ain’t the first time they done this. This is the fourth year, they say. So, it must be popular, this Leather Getaway thing.
They even had one last month. An “inclusive weekend” they said. Leather, rubber, and somethin’ called ABDL. Don’t even ask me what that means. City folks and their fancy words, I swear. But it sounds like they let just about anybody in, long as you got a hankerin’ for leather, or rubber, or whatever that ABDL thing is.
So, there ya have it. The LA Leather Getaway. It ain’t my cup of tea, but hey, to each their own. If you like leather, and you don’t mind a little bit of… kinkiness, then I guess this is the place to be. Just remember to bring your wallet, ‘cause I bet that leather don’t come cheap. And maybe a dictionary, so you can understand what them city folks are talkin’ about.
But hey, who am I to judge? If it makes ‘em happy, then good for them. Just as long as they don’t try to get me into one of them leather outfits. I’m perfectly happy in my good ol’ cotton dress, thank you very much.
