Hey guys, I am neither a Dad (yet) nor a Lad (unfortunately anymore) -- so this party is not for me. I've heard good things from guys who have gone, and the host seems like he is totally into making this one work. Here's a review of last night's party at the Gramercy Duplex. Sounds like a good party, since this is only the second outing (I was corrected -- this was their 3rd party) for DADS'N'LADS, but then I don't seem to know what the fuck is going on lately. Here's the good word...
"I attended the Dad’N’Lads party last night in Gramercy. Here’s a recap of the nights events from midnight on:
When I walked in, there were 20-30 dads and just a handful of lads, most in their underwear, scattered across the two-floor apartment. A few were gently jerking themselves off, but most were watching in silence. On the ground floor, a 30-something lad in cartoon briefs was giving head to an older beefy black guy on his back. He was on his knees blowing the guy’s cock in the center of the room.
When they stopped, the black guy slipped back on his white jockstrap and went down on all fours. The lad positioned himself behind him and starting rimming him. A few moments later, a hairy, obese onlooker pulled down the lad’s briefs and began rimming him.
A couple of dads were jerking one another off but most just watched. They went at it for a while, but once they stopped, the party completely died. The few genuine lads there—one white and two Asian twinks—weren’t playing.
Around 1 a.m. or so, most of the dads went upstairs and a few of them began sucking one another off on the bed. Downstairs, the white twink, with skintight pink and blue boxer briefs, knelt down and began blowing one of the younger dads.
A few of the dads gathered around them, and they started masturbating while the twink sucked his dick. They eventually got in a 69 position, with the older guy rimming and fingering the boy’s hole. When the dad came, the twink swallowed his load and then slipped back on his underwear.
The party had all but ended around 2 a.m., an hour earlier than advertised. My opinion: The party needs a much better dad-to-lad ratio (stricter “dad” entry requirements), real music (not FM radio and its commercials), and some lust kindling (think dad-lad porn)."
I had a terrific repsonse to this review -- but many guys had more questions. I asked the guy who wrote the original review to expand his review, and here's his reponse (thanks, bud!)...
"There were no wristbands or anything to distinguish the lads from dads, so I made the distinction based solely on age. And even more confusing, contrary to what most expect, some guys are into lads-fucking-dads, not the other way around. (But no one was engaged in anal sex the time I was there.)
There were only 3 guys below 30 years old, all twinks, like I wrote. Very few guys (maybe another 3) in their 30s. So 70-80% of the crowd were dads (>40 years old). Big, small, thin, fat, smooth, hairy--all over the place. The only thing they had in common was almost all of them were white.
The problem, of course, is the lads feel outnumbered (and they were, by huge margins), and if they don't play, no one does.
If you're a lad (and open to playing), you'll be in very high demand. The hosts are very watchful, and the dads were respectful of the lads.
Quick correction too: This recap was of their third party, this past Saturday, also in Gramercy."
Peronally, I think a "twink" is 18-23; a "lad" is 24-28; and a dad is 45+ (but that's just me). So if you're a dad or a lad or a twink and into this fetish, here's the info...
DADS'N'LADS (Park Slope and Gramercy). Held at popular sex party space in Brooklyn (first party) or Gramercy (second party), this is a safe sex, no-drugs party for guys who are 18 years old on up. Doors open 10pm. The party ends at 4am. Pants check required for entry. Described by the host: "younger guys into older, and visa versa, or guys who are into the daddy/son fetish."

NEXT PARTY is JUNE 11 in Brooklyn!
"Hey Evan, finally got a chance to check out the Brooklyn Dads N Lads part/space last night and wanted to share my thoughts. Overall, I was rather disappointed. The party started at 11 and I got there around 12:30. There were a fair number of guys there but only a few who I was semi-interested in. The people were all nice and respectful of each other, and the host was cool too, but by 2 the party was essentially over. I played with a couple of guys but I can't see going back to a Dads N Lads party in either location. I wouldn't necessarily blame the promoter, but at the two Dads N Lads parties I've been to the crowds weren't particularly big or attractive (and this is coming from a guy who really likes his daddies). I must say, however, that I strongly preferred the Brooklyn space to the loft in Manhattan. There were slings, benches, a maze, some couches - basically just a really good play space. I know it'd be hard to put a maze in the Manhattan loft, but more couches/futons/things to fuck on would help a lot."
If you still decide you want to give it a try, the party moves back and forth from Brooklyn to Manhattan....
