Latex has become such an important fetishistic material that it has become almost interchangeable with real flesh for many latex fetishists. Latex can re-shape, sculpt and transform the substance of the body that wears it so that it appears capable of constant change and re-interpretation, becoming a slick stand-in for the skin of the wearer. This effect is most pronounced with an all-in-one catsuit which obliterates any recognisable characteristics and subordinates the reality of the wearer to the textures, sounds and aromas of the worn material. Latex outfits can be assembled from traditional pieces like corsets, suspender belts, stockings and gloves but the effect that they have is different from that of conventional lingerie. The colours that can be achieved in the manufacture of these skin tight appliances added to the glossiness of their appearance emphasise their artificiality but, at the same time, their ability to conform exactly to the outlines of the body suggests a more organic origin. This confusion of visual stimulus, combined with the diverse sensory values of the material lies at the centre of its attraction to fetishists.
I looked at my calendar from this year, saw it was already October and realised that next year’s one was almost due for production. I had been looking to do a collaboration with a new photographer and Lourdes Ribas of www.pixelstudi.com had already agreed to do the shoot. I was delighted when a date was set to do just that.
Then, I developed a cold and had to cancel. I was badly congested for days before developing an ear infection. Not only was I...
Latex and leather don’t usually go together. They are completely different fetishistic materials but are just as significant, in their own way, as each other. They have their own distinctive appeal and set of associations. Leather is a natural substance that usually has a matte appearance. Latex is always shiny and requires constant maintenance and touch-ups to keep it that way. It is a manufactured material, designed and produced for its...
I used to love going to the nearest kiosk to buy Spanish GQ so that I could see my monthly column in print. It was even more of a thrill when I had an article in the pages of Primera Linea. Nothing quite prepared me for seeing a rack of magazines with me on the cover though. There’s nothing like it.

I’m writing this text in little pieces. It is easier to add to it in between doing bits of housework. The housework is a way to distract myself so I do not keep thinking about tonight. I am excited but it is still early and there are hours to go yet.
It will not be long before Mundo X is on TV. It is not the subjects that they will be discussing that interest me the most.
As I water the plants I see myself in a mirror and notice that I am just...
I go a bit mad when I dress up in latex. It is not real madness, more like a kind pure fetish pleasure. I remember when the package from MadRubb arrived at my door. I had stayed in especially, shooting fetish photos and wondering whether that would be the day.
I was hoping for a siesta but when the box arrived, suddenly, the adrenalin and excitement was almost too much. It was intriguing and mysterious at the same time. That made my fetish pleasure even...
