It’s what happens at Straight Men In Trouble
Metalbond A to Z: Vintage male bondage
For the letter V, let’s go with VINTAGE male bondage. It’s hard to believe anything ever happened before the internet, and before Tumblr, but back in the day there was LOTS of hot male bondage out there, in print and on video and even in the movies.
Some of those pictured above include: Rob Cryston, a famous photograph by Robert Mapplethorpe, Kristofer Weston (when he was Steve Landess), the work of Larry Townsend, the work of James Bond, an image from the Mr S catalog, artwork by Cavelo, and much more.
Many of the images above are from the Vintage male bondage site.

TBT: An ‘old guard’ artifact
Check out the dress code from the Mineshaft:
Does anybody remember the Mineshaft? That was before my own time, but I did know its manager, Wally Wallace — who was a fixture of NYC’s gay leather scene for decades. According to legend, Wally once denied entry to the Mineshaft to Elton John, because the pop star showed up in violation of the above-mentioned dress code.
As for me, the closest I ever got to the Mineshaft was seeing the 2012 Off Off Broadway play “A Night at the Mineshaft.”
You can read articles about the Mineshaft here and here.

And, for a feel of that era, also check out the 1980 movie “Cruising.”
Bondage In The Movies
The very top image is Sam J. Jones from the 1980 movie “Flash,” which was sexy as hell. The last two are Casper Van Dien in the famous whipping scene from “Starship Troopers.”
