Last Wednesday, when a group of International Mr Leather “insiders” passed by a window exhibition titled “Leather Legacies” on display at Columbia College. Discovering this unexpected “leather territory,” Gayle Rubin, the legendary theorist and leather historian, excitedly exchanged comments with others.

Kudos to the brilliant curators who timed the show with the opening of IML.

For most of #IML this pup was being dragged around in a harness hood. But it did get one nice pic on a stairwell 😁
