Unreal.
I~love~Sir.
Blogging my little Leather life. (Not my whole life, just my Leather life, there's obviously more to it than this.) Part personal diary/personal history, i.e. what it's like (for me) to live Leather now. Part place to corral big picture/community related history, rants, & theory.

About Me
- Habu
- Hmmmm, well for starters, I'm a Radical Feminist Leather Queer/ Leatherwomyn. (And no, that's not a contradiction in terms!) I'm Bi, S/switch, and shall we say womyn oriented. Through many strange twists of fate, though, I've partnered myself with a man, who I'll simply refer to as "Sir". We've been together for more than a decade now, but don't enjoy being mistaken for a "het" couple. As if that weren't complicated enough, we are both happily poly. I've been 'out' Leather going on two decades. (Yup very pre-net.) All of this, these facets of my very being, bear on my relationship(s). Thus in reading my writings, it's good to keep in mind that for me, at times there may be other levels of meaning ascribed to the words I utilize.
