A Few Reviews of the Folsom Street Fair

By Duane Lester • Oct 2nd, 2007 • 2,098 Views

Here are some reviews I found on the Folsom Street Fair. I found them while debating TheJonesGirl, a liberal from San Francisco, on Newsvine. She makes the claim that it is worse to indoctrinate children into religion and conservatism than it is to take them to see adult men masturbating in public.

TheJonesGirl: I see so much hate and anger in your words…such a pity. “Vile and warped” describes what I am reading you guys saying. Folsom does not equal public masturbation.

Me: Public masturbation equals public masturbationi:

“Why do (these people) bring kids here? This is a leather fair for god’s sake,” said Bahran Aliassa, who was masturbating in public. He has been doing it annually for the past six years.

Besides oodles of leather wear, you’ll also see a lot of skin at the fair — topless women, bottomless men — so it is not for the prudish. There are no live sex shows; well, maybe a little bit of public masturbation.

Then there was the guy masturbating on the curb. Not very shocking, surprisingly. A big thanks to popular media for desensitizing me to shit.

If you cant handle seeing sidewalk masturbation, pierced everything, and butt plugs the size of a small babies head, then don’t come. Some of the people you might see can be “unpleasant” … And please…keep your children at home.

If you like public masturbation and oral sex you’ve got to go.

In my first year at Folsom I was given a pot brownie by a policeman (off duty I might add), watched a man masturbate to a crowd of people who bestowed a thunderous round of applause when he lost his sticky mess all over the pavement and more displays of public fornication than I had ever seen in my life before.

If you like Golden Showers, Poop Sex and Public Masturbation well then this is the place for you. I have never EVER seen so much penis in my life.

From an article on this year’s street fair:

Thousands of people had thronged the Folsom Street Fair by noon today, and organizers expected to more as the afternoon progressed.

Venders were selling sex-related paraphernalia, from flogs and ropes to masks and porn.

Chaps and a bare chest was the predominant costume, though there were a lot of casually dressed spectators, from babies in strollers to senior citizens.

Here are a few pictures from this year’s fair.

Family values, liberal style. How much you wanna bet they vote Democrat?
