with them, and this contest just felt like the best thing to do at this point
in my journey.
4. If you win the title of South Carolina Leather boy/girl,
what would your goals be for your title year?
To bust some of the
misconceptions people have about the Leather community and to show people that

want people to know that the Leather community is accessible to them. If it is
in your heart, you can walk this path regardless of whether you "fit the
mold".____

I think that I will
face the same challenges that every titleholder has - money, and time. Thankfully,
I have the love and support of my local community who have offered fundraisers
to help with the first and soon will have a more flexible work schedule to help
with the second._________________
7. How do you think it will impact you if you are not chosen
to be the next South Carolina Leather boy/girl title holder?
I think that the
entire experience of preparing and running for this title has already impacted
me more than words can say. Whether or not I leave as the ne SC Leather girl, I
will have won something.

share with the judges.
I am a Leather girl. I
am a leader, a community member and a representative. I will continue n mu path
