A transmasc Leatherdyke Master with the heart of a Leatherboy, SwitchyButch is delighted and honored to be served by his slave, boi Kaseem, and his shieldmaiden, Itazura. He enjoys the filthier things in life while also relishing in the finer pleasures this world has to offer, particularly boot worship, indulgent coffee and tea service, and well-executed high protocol. A sadomasochist who is a tireless learner and hopelessly curious, he particularly enjoys using his psychology education for more nefarious purposes (Skinner boxes, anyone?) Before COVID changed everyone’s itinerary, SwitchyButch devoted much of his free time to serving and educating in his local kink and Leather community as MAsT: Lexington, KY’s founding Co-Director (Emeritus), as Co-Facilitator for Dames of Leather Lexington (DOLLs), and at events across the US and abroad. He is proud to hold the title of Bluegrass Leather Bootblack 2016. His slave Kaseem, a Black transmasc Leather slave, is more than a little bit of a cigar slut, wildly passionate about the crafting and service of coffee and tea, instantaneously delighted when offered small-batch ice cream (coffee or caramel praline, please!), and equal parts devoted emotional support puppy and willing masochist to his Master’s sadism. 

SwitchyButch and his slave are sacred sex practitioners, Brothers to the members of their Leather family, and feed their soul by disappearing into the woods with their family and diving deep into energy work, bonding, and exploring beyond the edges of their comfort zone. Profoundly committed to authenticity and living their truth, their authority transfer is rooted in radical vulnerability, a mutual commitment to growth and to stripping away that which does not serve, and shared values. They are both dyed-in-the-wool activists and are deeply invested in the intentional cultivation of equity and justice. Together, SwitchyButch, his slave, and his shieldmaiden reside in beautiful central Kentucky.
