This is the heart of our community and is probably the single largest repository of shared Rubberist information, wisdom and support available anywhere. || Forum Leaders||
This is about the "how to" part of being a Rubberist. Help us all out by sharing your skills in making, maintaining, reparing or trouble-shooting rubber garments in general. The keywords here are "How to..."
Problem solving, How-to's and discussion about specific categories of rubber garments.
Covers the DIY movement; trends within the latex world [burlesque, trans colors, cyber]; psychology behind what we wear and how we wear it and why; the influence of John Sutcliffe/Atomage and early firms like Kastley; does mainstream fashion influence latex fetishwear or does fetishwear influence mainstream fashion?; rubberist magazine culture; how technology in general relates or should relate to latex; fetish stereotypes; the ritual of dressing for pleasure; film & television using latex.
Lite-weight and fun, this area is for socializing and talking about stuff that does not fall in the categories of "serious Rubberist information and support". Politics, humor, cooking, etc. are welcome here. Raunchy or overt sex are NOT appropriate, however! Think of it as a kind of "chat room" that is asynchronous rather than in real time. Meet and socialize here.
Support & discussion related to the subculture and human relationship aspects of Rubberism: lifestyles, spouse/partner acceptance, gender orientations, psychology, public/private activities and social issues, etc.

Got a question? Need some help with a problem? Got an answer or some advice? Also post here if you don't know where else to put it. It will eventually be moved to an appropriate location. Please start a new thread for each new question
Rants and other Op-ed editorial pieces or columns by well established, articulate Postacrats. Are mostly oriented to rubber fetish but some broader ranting is allowed.
Master list of all polls on this site. They suggest a statistical profile of what the "average" Rubberist is like. (Merchant CIA satisfaction polls are also included.)
