Today feels even more historic here as we are honored to welcome Leather Icon and Community catalyst, Guy Baldwin, for sharing some pieces from his epic archive of speeches and essays.

@Guy Baldwin, 2019

The first essay was just added to the Reading Library, and will teach you much about the roots of BDSM, how “Old Guard” was first conceived, the good and the bad that came with that concept, and other sane and truthful insights into Leather/BDSM history.

It’s a must-read for BDSM educators, scholars and anyone interested in Leather history.
