Service and showing up to help foster community are big components of being a titleholder. I had the opportunity to ask our current royalty members a bit more about what serving in that role means to them and what opportunities they got to experience in 2022. The Las Vegas pup community is full of diversity and the sweetest pups. We had a blast getting this pack of pups together for the cover shoot.
Healing, transformative, exalting, spiritual, sacred, evolving - All things rope CAN be. Rope allows for a primal experience of vulnerability as its ethos.

For the second time, Liquid Red graced the PROUD & Kinky stage at the Las Vegas PRIDE Festival at Craig Ranch Park in October 2022. The first time was in October 2019 at the PROUD & Kinky stage. This time, Liquid Red teamed up with Wigcraft Vegas and included their spectacular foam wigs in the show.

As a professional dancer, I worked for five years on cruise ships. Throughout this time, I experimented with many things pertaining to my sex life, including having sex with curious straight men, fooling around with guests in the sauna, and sniffing poppers with my friends on nights off.
From corsets to latex to harnesses and fishnet, kink fashion has evolved in many ways over the years and touched the mainstream in pop music videos, at music festivals, worn by influencers, on runways, and in mainstream club fashion.
PROUD & Kinky is going to be doing even more to engage with the alternative queer community in the next 12 months. Shout out to all the folks that attended Merry Fistmas in mid-December. It was a fun and well-attended play party event, and we can’t wait to host more. I’ve seen the future of the kinky queer community.
