Johann D'Nale formed the Leeds Fetishmen group in August 2018. Johann was conscious that Leeds lacked a fetish community. While there was a vibrant community in Manchester, kinksters in Leeds were going without. Perhaps this was to do with the more conservative attitudes found in a smaller city like Leeds, Johann thought. Whatever the reason., change was needed.
Johann found that there was an appetite for a fetish community. The people he reached out to wanted a space in which they could share their thoughts and worries - and, most importantly, meet fellow kinksters.
Leeds Fetishmen was born. It started with a Facebook group, and the website soon followed. In the early days, there was a trip to London to see the Tom of Finland film, and to the club Love Muscle.
However, Leeds Fetishmen first announced his presence to the world in the summer of 2018 at Leed Pride.
Soon it was clear that there was a need for more social activity. The group's first party - 'Freak (Like Us)' - was held at Wharf Chambers in Leeds.
A steering group was then formed, and Leeds Fetishmen began holding regular meetups.
The group is always looking to hold new events and has raised *** for local causes.
Now firmly, established, Leeds Fetishmen is a much-cherished part of the northern kink community, providing a life-affirming, sex-positive environment whatever your interests.
