This year, I saw Toronto’s Leather Pride from a completely different angle… and that was from the inside, as a contestant in Mr Leatherman Toronto 2016. The experience was both wonderful and intense, and a great eye opener into all that the leather community does, not just for one another but for the Queer Community […]
