Click Here "The first weekend in September stands for the pure zest for life," Wower eit wrote in a message of greeting in the official program of the Folsom -Europe Street Festival. Members of the conservative opposition Christian Democrats (CDU), and eve n political leaders from within Wowereit's own Social Democrat party (SP D), said Wowereit's public endorsement of the leather and fetish festiva l showed poor taste. They also questioned whether it was appropriate for the mayor of Germany' s largest city, who became a nationally known figure when he outed himse lf in 2001, to support the festival. He said Berlin was a tolerant city and open to the world. "No question about it, it is a glitzy scene but that is also part of Berl in," Wowereit told Bild newspaper. "And as long as they do not do anythi ng illegal, I expect people to be tolerant. "A greeting message is good advertising for Berlin, especially for intern ational visitors," added Wowereit, who is a regular visitor to Berlin's gay and lesbian Christopher Street Day parade. But anyone who has a problem with it doesn't have to go to the ( S&M) event."
