Episode 33 - Awksity

Get your wheels shined up and your dash detailed as it is the Thirty Third episode of the Kink Kloset!Pull up into the Kink Kloset in style is none other than the fabulous Awksity! Awksity joins us from Boorloo/ Perth in Western Australia, where they are a steward of the fetish and bear communities. Being a kinkster in Booroloo/ Perth felt isolating for Awksity as there was no prominent community to allow for them to freely express their fetishes. Instead, Awksity connected with other kinksters online and was fortunate enough to be mentored and travel around Australia to develop their passion for kink and fetish. It didn't take long for Awksity to become driven to create spaces for kinksters in Booroloo/ Perth and was welcomed in by the Perth Bears community to join in their kink nights. Come 2020, Awksity took the plunge and was successful in becoming Mr Bear Perth 2020 promoting their message of body positivity and challenging the assumptions of the bear community. It didn't stop there as they went on to become Mr Australasia Bear 2021 wherein they served the community post COVID travelling across the nation and helping bridge the gaps between the bear and kink communities.Body positivity hits differently with Awksity as they experienced the shallow side of those who only noticed them after a weightless journey and appealing to the traditionally attractive body shape. This did not sit right with Awksity and further encouraged them to work on accepting themselves and work towards the visibility of those who get overlooked. Transformation, growth, and acceptance, are all strong themes which resonate with Awksity and we discuss these in detail throughout this episode. Each stage of their kink journey has not been without their own challenges, yet often at times there have been special people which have helped them overcome any barriers. :)
