Leather, latex, and kink gear on Soho's Old Compton Street
Prowler RED is the fetish and kink specialist of London's Prowler family, on Old Compton Street in the middle of gay Soho. Where the flagship Prowler store down the road keeps things lifestyle-focused, RED goes harder: two floors of leather, latex and rubber, harnesses, bondage and fetish equipment, toys, and poppers, plus the shop's own Prowler RED Leather Range. It occupies the former Fifty & Dean site, rebranded under the Prowler name. Staff have a reputation for being approachable, which matters in a category that can intimidate first-timers — whether you're kitting out for a fetish night or just browsing. Open daily, and an easy add-on if you're already working your way around the Soho shops.

The Grindr scams that actually happen, from sextortion and verification-code tricks to robbery set-ups abroad, plus the settings to change before you travel and what to do if you're targeted.

The Village People were created by a gay producer as a set of gay fantasy characters and launched to gay disco audiences, but the members themselves differ. Here is what each has said on the record, and the two readings of YMCA.

Atlantis Events charters whole ships for gay men. Here's who sails, what the parties are, what's included, what a 2027 Atlantis cruise really costs with fees, and how booking works, from Atlantis's own pages.

Every bear cruise from late 2026 to early 2028 — BearCruise, Bears On Deck, Adventure Bears and Arno's Bear Cruises — with ships, ports, real fares and what each group includes, from the operators' own sites.
