Leather! Rubber! Fleas! Oh my!

Looking for a used jock? Or hand-me-down leather chaps? Well then, has Hearsay got the fleas for you! If you ever needed a reason to justify your passion for second-hand leather and fetish wear, from clothes to sex toys to DVDs to boots, look no further than D.C.’s 7th Annual Leather Flea Market will also feature first-hand goods, meaning new — for those who like ’em virginal. Hearsay’s already saved up its coins for a big, black double-headed dildo — who’s up for a ride of see-saw?

Defenders LLC is the sponsor of this “traditional flea market with a kink,” where vendors and representatives will include Steve Leather, Body Worksman, Boundboyz, Mr. Capital Leather Pride and DC Rubberman. Assorted other leather and BDSM clubs you know and love will also be on hand for this event, benefitting Brother Help Thyself. It’s all set for tomorrow, Saturday, April 18, from noon to 5 p.m. at Remington’s, 639 Pennsylvania Avenue SE. A $2 donation is requested at the door…
