GETTING THE KINKS OUT

posted by James Reel

    You know it’s a slow arts week when my only article in the Tucson Weekly previews an event that celebrates activities best practiced in the privacy of one’s home. (Note to the cautious: This is not exactly family-friendly material.) What amused me about the organizer of this upcoming fetish ball is not that he thought I would portray him and his compatriots as wackos, but that he would come off as some know-it-all from Phoenix hoping to tell the poor benighted denizens of Tucson all about BDSM. It’s good for a Phoenician to understand his place, which is second to Tucson in all things other than bloat and pollution.
