Every year, Leather SINS produces two national BDSM events in Chicago: Kinky Kollege and SINSations in
Leather. Ever since the Concerned Women for America attacked five Midwest BDSM conferences in 2002,
Leather SINS has consulted with the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom to ensure that our events
would not face the same problems if we were attacked by religious political extremists.
Leather SINS has consulted with NCSF about a variety of issues while producing our events. We asked
Susan Wright to accept the position as our media spokesperson, posting her phone number on our website
so she can respond instantly to any media inquiries. Susan checks every page of our website for each
event, looking for statements and phrases that may need clarification or may possibly cause problems if
taken out of context by the media.
Leather SINS has gratefully named NCSF as one of our "WE CARE!" charities (along with LA&M). We're proud
to be a Coalition Partner of NCSF, and would urge any group to take advantage of NCSF's knowledgeable
Incident Response program consultants when producing an event.
In leather heart and soul,
Master Z
Leather SINS President & Event Director

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) is used as the tool to determine the definition of mental health in our society. Our stance is that disorders as defined in the DSM should be "based on empirical research and devoid of cultural bias" and we are working to "urge the American Psychiatric's Assocation (APA) to remove all diagnoses that are not based upon peer-reviewed, empirical research, demonstrating distress or dysfunction, from the DSM".
