Northwest LeatherSir 2012

Jim

 

I came into the leather community twenty years ago, and the influences I have picked up along the way - bears, rubber, country dancing - color my leather life and will always be important to me. I have been in leather relationships, served leather clubs, and had my achievements and service recognized with awards. I have competed for leather titles in the past, serving as Seattle Leather Daddy 2004, Mr. Northwest Cub 2011, and International Mr. Saliva 2006. One of my big leather focuses today is experiencing leather life in other cities, traveling often and exploring how different communities embrace (or struggle with) leather and kink. Lessons learned there get applied back here. My close-to-home focus is with the Puget Sound fisting community, keeping it active with regular parties and working to train and mentor people new to the activity.

 

 

Northwest Leatherboy 2012

boy Danny

 

boy Danny was raised in the small town of Winthrop, Washington. When he was 18 he moved to Spokane where he developed a relationship with two men both who were 20+ years older than himself. At the age of 21, Danny de-cided that it was time to move on and moved to Seattle, Washington. Seattle gave him his first taste of what a true Leather Community was and still is. He fell in love with this community and decided that he wanted to play an ac-tive roll in the community. Today, he is a resident of Ta-coma, Washington and is a collard boy to Odie Heaston, a family member of the Dragon Clan, which makes Danny a Whelp of the Dragon Clan. He is currently a full-time col-lege student at Bates Technical College and is studying Wireless Voice and Data Communications. He is serving on the board of directors for Generic Leather Productions of Washington and is the current Web Servant. Danny is also assisting with the planning for the 2013 Leather Leadership Conference.

 

 

Northwest Community Boot Black 2012

Ruin

 

Ruin has been kinky for as long as she remembers. Her exploration of BDSM began in Los Angeles in 2003, but it wasn't until she moved to Seattle, joined the CSPC, & dis-covered the leather community that she blossomed into the wicked sadomasochist she is today. Her interests are as varied as her panties, but her "first loves" remain bondage, blood, beatings and, of course, boots. Ruin pursued the art of bootblacking out of a desire to care for her Sir's boots. It has become one of her strongest connection points to her Sir, as well as to her community. Besides being a proud kinkster, Ruin is also a passionate educator. From a successful career in mainstream commu-nities, she now brings her love of teaching to the kink community. Ruin is an active volunteer with the CSPC, and has been nominated for a leadership role with Seattle girls of Leather.
