I've always been into vacuums and have collected for about 20 years now. I'm 30 and am not gay. I have always loved and been addicted to women. I honestly find it very sexy when i have a girlfriend and she uses one of my sanitaires. My last ex girlfriend surprised my for my birthday last year. I came home from work and she was vacuuming my living room with my 1986 Sanitaire SC886B in a mini skirt. That was awesome! Sexy girl using a sexy vacuum. I always found the shape of the 800 series Sanitaires especially 886s beautiful. Especially the shape of the hood
 
Everyone is welcome at my home, regardless

of their attraction. Commonly referred to as the "palace"...by more than a few, it seems.All I care about is that you are nice, kind, and respectable. If not, we have lovely, old ,deep coal mines, that one could explore. .. 300 feet below the ground.
 
I'm also straight

I'm also straight, not married but am definitely not gay. When I go to the conventions at the museum I realize I am in the minority but this does not bother me. I've asked a few collectors why so many vacuum collectors are gay and the answer from them was the same, "we're not sure." I've enjoyed vacuums ever since I can remember and started collecting them 6 years ago.

That's why you are always welcomed, as is everyone who comes, with open arms. That 'everyone' part is important. People who come to the convention are from all walks of life. The gay guys span the entire scale. While no one dresses in drag, you've actually met two former drag queens and you'd never know. You have spent hours talking to one person who wears his leather harness under his button down shirt. You wouldn't know by looking at him. Most of the guys are 'in the middle'. But when you get 70 gay guys in a room together, with vacuums, the only way to describe it is "fabulousness". I know you've never been hit on by any of them, because that's not what the convention is for. I know you are not gay, and neither are a few of the other guys. The fact that we can ALL GET ALONG with no one feeling bothered, harassed, or threatened is exactly the reason the convention is so great. Mostly, we all laugh. We laugh with each other, tease each other, and debate the merits of vacuum cleaners - both past and present. With no pretense (isn't that wonderful). And that's why I can't wait to see you again in May at the next Convention. The theme this year is Central Vacuums.
 
what an awesome theme!

What a great theme! I can't wait to show off my Drainvac Twin Turbo, it is one of the most powerful central vacuum units you can get. I will need to bring a special power supply to run it since you don't have a 240 volt outlet in your store. It uses two 120 volt outlets on opposite phases to provide the 240 volts of power. I will try to bring a few other favorites such as my Drainvac Viper as well. We can run them all without pipes to experience their full power.

I always had an idea, did we identify more closely with what our mom's did? More interests in her activities? I guess I did, sure loved to do things in the house since very young! I didn't mind the yard work, but came to live inside, cleaning and cooking! My older brother is gay also, but he definitely has the green thumb that I don't have and couldn't care less about cleaning or how well a vacuum works. Ironically he used to have his own cleaning service. Mom was for sure the alpha male in our house, nobody would make her mad! Also a bit of an ocd clean freak,think there is a link there to numerous strep throat.
 
makes me sad

even thought the museum is shut down and i dont get to travel like i used to and able to go to the conventions, i am totally straight no question, but still it would be a dream to see gay or straight members again (and i dont judge and trust we will all be welcome in heaven regardless of our orientation and/or preference) what makes me sad is that i cant come visit any of my vacuum collector buddies. i believe this is the last convention i went to and finally got to meet the famous"Stan Kann the Gadget Man" before his passing and even got to ride with him to lunch. i miss you Stan. i know you're waiting to meet us again in heaven for the big vacuum cleaner show in the sky where no dirt is left behind and our vacs never get dusty- that we will also meet and chat with those that have left this world who designed and invented all these wonders

CAN I GET AN AMEN?!
