The pioneer site of what is planned to be a full suite of KinkMen offerings, BoundGods represents the culmination of a shared dream and the beginning of an exciting new chapter in Kink.com's history.

When Kink.com decided to purchase the San Francisco Armory last year, they knew they were getting much more than just a new production studio. In addition to being a historic San Francisco landmark, the smooth granite front steps of the 94-year-old building have also made the Armory a treasured destination for skateboarders from all over the world. Recently, a local production company even got Kink.com's permission to use the historic steps (referred to by skaters as "3 up 3 down") as a location for a commercial they were shooting for Adidas. With architecture that impresses historian, skateboarder and pornographer alike, the Armory has proved that it is truly a one of a kind building.

Just 2 weeks away from launching its flagship website BoundGods.com, Director Van Darkholme teamed up with Founder and CEO Peter Acworth to demonstrate how true KinkMen like to roll: with plenty of rope and very little clothing.

Throughout the years you've no doubt seen many of your favorite models come and go, disappearing from the limelight just as quickly as they stepped into it. Working in an industry that revolves around youth and fresh faces, it has become quite common for models to squeeze a lifetime of work into just a couple of years, often retiring even before they hit their mid-twenties. With a full life ahead of these young retirees, you might wonder what they could possibly do next that could top getting paid to have sex for a living. And sometimes, the answer isn't as glamorous as you might think.

Recently, the 2008 Cybernet Expo, a trade show for adult websites and webmasters, came to San Francisco to showcase the business side of kinkiness. The Expo focused on many different aspects of the industry from education to technology, and held seminars and panels on everything from website design to marketing strategies. Since the Expo wasn't far from the SF Armory, many adult industry leaders dropped in to check out Kink.com's massive new location. The 2008 Cybernet Expo and Kink.com proved to be a perfect pairing, and demonstrated to the greater adult entertainment community that the City by the Bay has much to offer.

Recently, well-known porn producer, director, and actor John Stagliano was indicted by the U.S. Department of Justice, with investigation provided by the FBI's Adult Obscenity Squad. Behind Kink had a chance to ask John Stagliano about the charges against him, and to investigate the larger question of obscenity prosecutions against the porn industry. Although attitudes towards erotic and sexual material have continually thawed, John Stagliano's prosecution is a reminder to us all that the freedoms we take for granted can still be challenged at any time.
