A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Happy Holidays!

xomateo & gogo_savvy are just one example of couple who met through BME. Are you? If so, we’ve got a section for that so submit your photos! Love is definitely in the air in Santa Cruz, CA and that goes along great for the holidays. I hope you’re all with someone you love and can spend the holidays with them.

    his mods are rad, she is more than stunning.. but I”m afraid they are violating one of the primary rules of coupling… a man must outweigh his partner. She isn’t big, he’s just too small.

    come workout wth me homie, we’ll fix this things right up.

    I have an infinite list of lovely things to say about this couple but I’ll keep it short and sweet: I’m a sucker for his sleeve and she has FANTASTIC breasts. They are absolutely adorable together and I’m going to have to disagree with you Ian – I find the size difference to be more appealing than anything… but maybe it’s just me seeing as my man weighs in at a slender 130 and in opposition I’m quite a curvy girl. Variety is the spice of life!
