First of all: Merry x-mas to everybody!

For me, as for some others here I believe, the visit to TG will be a first time visit to a fetish club. I have to say that it I have been curious to learn more about it for some years now but so far I haven't taken the step to do so.

So I guess the big question to many of us will be how to dress to be let in and not stopped at the door :( . At TG website I didn't find too many pics to browse for inspiration but I have found a danish site that, at least to me, was very inspirational. http://www.manifestfetishclub.com/Pa...g_gallery.html look at it and get inspired.

See you all in London.

admirer5577--Merry X-mas to you as well.

Hope you find yourself in good spirits this holiday season too.

On the TG site, did you click Start (on the left), then click Event Archive, then click on the thumbnails on the far right? They will usually have a section titled "TG Clubbers" where you can find hundreds of pics for inspiration.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in London too!

There were some cool pics. As usual some 90% are of women (mail photographers maybe?.....) but I saw a few men there too. Just have to see how brave I will be in March. I have some ideas by now and will try to do my shopping well in advance.

Hi admirer5577 and anyone else wondering about what fetish clubs are like and what to wear to TG.

I have dabbled in the fetish club stuff and my experience is that people are overwhelmingly friendly and accepting. Remember that the fetish club is full of eccentric or kinky people who go there to socialize with other like minded folks. Every one of them has at some point had to face their fears about being rejected or ridiculed and are, therefore, very understanding.

A lot of us have had the experience of meeting a goth or otherwise freaky kid in public and the person was very standoffish. They project that attitude as a facade to preemptively protect themselves from the abuse directed at them by the general public. So walking, for the first time, into a club full of people who at first glance look like the pissed off kid in the record store (ha ha remember those?) can be rather intimidating. But then you quickly realize that now that these people are in their element and among friends the facade is dropped and they are very cool, interesting people.

Now I'm sure you can run into the odd a-hole here and there but that is an exception. In the fetish club, the world as we know it is inverted. What I mean by this is that the more eccentric and outrageous you appear the more accepted and admired you are. This is the exact opposite of what we are all conditioned to expect and therefore takes a while to sink in.

I encourage you to break out of whatever shell you may be hiding in and allow yourself to express your wildest fantasies. You won't regret it and if you are like me, you will experience a powerfully liberating high.

As for the web pictures being of mostly women, there are several reasons. Mostly male photographers is part of it. But a bigger part, I think, is that there is more stigma attached to men in fetish gear than women. So more women will agree to having their picture taken than men. There are lots of men dressed in all kinds of wild outfits. You will have to try real hard to stand out, and that's a good thing.

There are no cameras allowed in the club. There are club approved photographers roaming around but they will ask first if they can take a picture. This, in my experience, is strictly followed. No one is there trying to "out" anyone and privacy is respected.

Please keep in mind that I am in no way an expert and have limited experience but the fetish club experience I do have had has been very positive.

here's a couple links to sites with many fetish party pics for your inspiration
http://www.latexnews.com/
http://www.thefetishparty.com/index....nt.Alter%20Ego

You need to register for the Alter Ego site but its free and there are thousands of photos there from their monthly parties. I have been to Alter Ego and its a blast.

Good luck and hope to see you all there at your freakiest

I have been discussing this meet with Heelfan and between us we have come up with some ideas that should enable everyone to get the best out of the heelmeet because a massive group of 30 people is too large to get very far around the West End as we found out last year.

Our idea is to split into groups:

Group 1 would be the Smallfoot Group which will take in all the stores that only go up to 8 or 9s;

Group 2 will be the Bigfoot Group which will high-tail it straight for Chiltern Street where there are four or five shops that cater for sizes up to 12;

Group 3 is the Pub Group which will go (more or less) straight to a hostelry which seems to suit some heelers

Group 4 will be the Straggler Group where one of us wil wait at the meeting venue for latecomers and then they will at some point be united with their preferred choice of group.

Group 5 will be the Fetish Group and will probably go to Camden for fetish shopping.

At various times we will rendezvous for Lunch, Mid afternoon drinks and dinner enabling people to meet and if they want, switch groups.

Is anyone up for a block booking at a restaurant for lunch?

Would these boots be appropriate for the heel meet?
Let me know what you think.

Those boots would be perfect for the heel meet!

Dr. Shoe + Heelfan
I think the three of us should talk on the phone at the same time. Perhaps a three-way conference call between you, heelfan, and I is in order. I have alot of ideas to add.

Dr. Shoe · 4th January 2007, 06:25

Airwolf. I'm afraid that you cannot wear those boots on the heelmeet.

I would be too jealous!

jmc · 4th January 2007, 06:59

Ssssssssssizzle!

Sure! Who cares what others think?

I'm not into latex, fetish, drag, crossdressing, transvestism, or other psychological terms.

Psych terms suck!

I simply like wearing shoes, bottoms, and tops that appeal to me and in which I think I look fairly decent wearing.

If I can make it to the World Heel Meet, I'll be wearing what I like, without "breaking boundaries," and I hope you like wearing what you enjoy wearing, too.
