Nearly everything was allowed on the city street. I won\u2019t go into further details on the acts themselves, but you can view the <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zombietime.com\/folsom_sf_2007_part_1\/index.php\" rel=\"noopener\">work of a photojournalis<\/a><span>t who was there.

Even kids in strollers. There were no age restrictions. The event\u2019s executive director commented that he had seen \u201ca thousand doting aunts and uncles, and a kid having the time of his life.\u201d They disclaimed any duty to protect children from witnessing nightmare-inducing lude acts, saying \u201cparents were responsible for determining whether the fair was suitable for kids.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>One 2005 East Bay Times article described the <\/span><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/technofog.substack.com\/p\/eastbaytimes.com\/2005\/09\/29\/folsom-a-perfect-place-for-kids\/?clearUserState=true\" rel=\"noopener\">story<\/a><span> of \u201cunlikely attendees\u201d to the \u201ckinky leather fetish festival.\u201d Were they referring to celebrities?

One nearby resident, a 10 year-old boy, had the unfortunate luck of witnessing the Folsom Street Fair since he was 6. He described it as \u201cpretty nasty because a lot of people here are naked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Not all participants in the Folsom Street Fair thought it was wise to have children around.
