Defenders Philosophy

We believe that Christian gay men and lesbian women who are into Leather/Levi, can express their sexuality in a manner consonant with Christ's teachings. Hence the name "Defenders". We represent another facet of the Catholic and defend our right to express ourselves in a  variety of ways:

  • Spiritually

  • Emotionally

  • Psychologically

  • Physically

  • Sexually

Leather is an integral part of our being as well as our spirituality. We believe it would be hypocritical to deny our affinity for leather and the images connoted by it. It would be just as hypocritical to ignore our spiritual side when we wear our leather. Just as Jesus challenged the traditional limits of religion in His day, we believe our role challenges the traditional concepts of religion today.
