HISTORY The Wet Spot was founded in 1999. Socially speaking, it is an outgrowth of Allena Gabosch's ''Beyond the Edge Cafe'', which hosted BDSM related events. Several regulars of the cafe started discussing getting a dedicated space for their activies. One famously quoted "It would be great if we could get 200 members". In fact the idea became more popular than they envisioned - in its first year The Wet Spot registered about 2000 members. REFERENCES EXTERNAL LINKS |
