For Perverts ONLY: 3 BDSM/SWer-Focused Films
Films that portray BDSM or Sex Work are often not made for people in the lifestyle or community. The three films in this series —FETISHES, SICK, AND HUSTLER WHITE — stand out because in some form they were collaboratively made with people who were active in the lifestyle in the late 1990s.
This series is intended for us: the Femdoms, SWers, Gay Hustlers, Sissies, Sluts, Masochists, Foot Freaks, submissive men, and the list goes on…
Enjoy late-’90s fetish outfits, hot scenes, and general perversion.
