It’s been a long time since a club in town hosted a regular fetish night—RIP Sunday nights at the Vogue—but it looks like Seattle’s got a brand new fetish night. Sexstanza—a first-Thursday-of-the-month fetish, kink, and costume dance party (can I come as Elisabeth Hasselbeck?)—kicks off tonight at Re-bar. More info here.
UPDATE: Russell in comments responding to “it’s been a long time since a club in town hosted a regular fetish night…”
Um, besides Grind at the Wet Spot you mean? Every Thursday for nine years and the most popular event there, thankyouverymuch ^-^
Sorry about that, Russell—yes, Grind at the Center for Sex Positive Culture is an asset and a treasure. But I was referring to a regular fetish night at a regular nightclub—an actual nightclub with booze and… well, with booze. While the Grind’s atmosphere is “nightclub-like,” according to the Center’s website, it also notes, “As always: no alcohol,” which is un-nightclub-like in the extreme. On the plus side Grind is open to anyone 18-and-over, so kinky underagers can get their freak on at Grind. For more info about Grind email grind@sexpositiveculture.org.
But we’re all in agreement that Sexstanza is a terrible name for a fetish night—or any night. Grind is a much cooler name. The end.

We can’t just un-see shit like that, you know.
RE the flier: Glitter is considered fetish wear? That’s a new one on me.
basement Gimp is watching you masturbate
“Sexstanza” sounds like a cross between “sex” and “Tony Danza” with an… er, extra “s” for a double-dose of sexy, or in this case, and single dose, which it was lacking. Also, uh, loosen the choker, or; why are that guys eyes so big?

Thank god for turning images off.
That said, showing up as Elizabeth Hasselback is a winner.
Sure, you’ll make a lovely Mrs. Hasselback.
Sorry Doug, but Sextanza sounds like Costanza and if there’s anything I wouldn’t want to associate with a fetish night, it would be the image of Jason Alexander in latex.
No no no, Dan, you’re Liza Minelli. I’m Elizabeth Hasselback.
OMG that guy makes me want to vomit. Thanks for ruining my day!!!
#8 – You’re right, and yet, we both lose for you saying it.
He’s got crazy eyes. And shouldn’t he be in the basement or a cage or something? I see window treatments. That’s a no no.
Jesus. Looks like dude is realizing what he’s in for as he registers the chill of the mortar his nuts have just been set into.
@13; or he’s just seen the new Miss California nudie pics.
SEX with Tony DANZA Hot stickyness
Gimpy mastobatoooohhhhhhhh
Thursday night? Iz tha sux. Seeling Kat iz tha mastobatooooohhhh too buzy on Thursday.
Call the night: Stickypants …
@15 for the win.
Uh, Grind isn’t exactly open to everyone. You have to be a member, which means going to an orientation and paying the membership fee (I think it’s still 35/year) but it’s completely worth it if you’re into fetish.
@4 “Sexstanza” sounds like a cross between “sex” and “Tony Danza”
and here I was wasting my time imagining George Costanza!
Um, how about a review of the evening from someone who was there? Good, bad, and/or ugly?
Is there a man alive that doesn’t look like a total loser in leather fetish gear?
Ok, Ok, is there a man alive, who isn’t a professional model, who doesn’t look like a total loser in leather fetish gear?
I mean, seriously, a dice bag and a pile of D&D books is a sexier look. Throw in a size XXX t-shirt with serious sweat stains and I guess you’ve got a tie.
Unlike the Wet Spot, I like my sex WITH my drugs and alcohol, thankyouverymuch
