Prepare for the Fair: Folsom Street, 2012

Even before one landed them in the fiery crosshairs of Fox News, Folsom Street Events — the non-profit behind the massive celebration of alternative sexuality — has been consistently hellbent on creating a poster as shocking as the event itself. In response to growing momentum to ban public nudity in San Francisco, they stripped away the campy tricks and pseudo-religious shenanigans and got back to basics for this year’s poster. In it, they presented a cross-section of San Francisco residents, (with the measured diversity of an episode of the Brady Bunch), made them all get naked … and then blacked out all the good parts:

You’ll probably recognize some familiar porn star faces in the crowd — Morgan Black, Dominic Sol, Josh West — but if you look closely at the uncensored version — after the jump — you might see some surprises …

Just a li’l fun with gender! FYI, you can buy a copy of the censored or uncensored posters over on the official Folsom Street Events site. For those lucky (or brave) enough to attend the 2012 Folsom Street Fair this weekend in San Francisco, I urge you to consult with two seasoned Folsom Street veterans (Tim Valenti and Sister Roma)  on getting the most out of the fair, from finding the right harness to the best place to get tested for free in SF, in the latest episode of The Tim & Roma Show, which is now playing for free on NakedSword:
