CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Social Kink , the online fetish community, is proud to sponsor its very own Q at this year's 10th Annual International Ms Bootblack competition at the International Ms Leather Weekend in San Francisco this week.
Q, who reigns as the current Southeast Leatherfest Bootblack, is a member of the Social Kink development team and has been integral to the site's evolution from the earliest stages - which is one of the reasons Social Kink is so excited about the sponsorship.
"It is such an honor to be able to support Q in this," said Nikki Nefarious, the site's manager. "Not only is she a wonderful co-worker and outstanding member of the Leather Community, she is also a personal friend of mine from way back in our college days. Q, we all wish you the very best!"
"Working for a company that is endeavoring to support the leather community has been absolutely amazing. Social Kink has stepped up without hesitation to support me in various ways throughout my title year," said Q. "It's rare, in my opinion, for titleholders to have the kind of support from their employers that I have received from the staff of Social Kink. It's through the support of Social Kink that I have been able to give so much time to my current title and the leather community as a whole."
Stockroom.com, Syren and Stormy Leather are also sponsoring Q and will provide her attire for the event, which begins May 1 and runs to May 4. Q has been active in the leather community since 2004 and her particular interest in bootblack has taken her to events such as the International Ms Leather Weekend and last week's Beyond Leather 2008, an event at which she was also supported by Social Kink.
"I believe they are to be commended for providing such strong support to myself and the leather community. Scott, Nikki, Jerry and Ana have been some of my biggest cheerleaders this year and for that I sincerely thank them," added Q. "I can't imagine what my experience would have been like without their support. I am very much looking forward to the opportunity to participate in the International Ms Bootblack contest. Win or lose, Social Kink has gone above and beyond to make this an incredible journey."
