This year we are pleased to announce that in an effort to expand our inclusiveness and serve the needs of our entire community, we have removed all government-ID gender requirements for all of our title contests. So long as a person self-identifies as a Sir they are welcome to compete for the Sir title, if they identify as a boy they may compete for the boy title and likewise as long as they identify as a leatherwoman they are welcome to compete for Ms. Minnesota Leather Pride.
Weekend committee chair, Bruizer Hündchen, said “We are so thrilled to take these steps to make our contests amongst the most inclusive and welcoming in the country and we are pleased to stand with our brothers and sisters of all genders and orientations as we do our part combat discrimination and bigotry in our world today.”
