Vick Germany
Vick Germany lives in San Francisco (SF) and has been a part of the leather community for over twelve years. She (yes, the pronoun is correct, but do not call her “ma’am.”) joined the women’s SM group the Outcasts, which became "The Exiles" and has been a continuous member.
In 2002, Vick won the SF Dyke Daddy contest. A few of the highlights from that year include: organizing the first ever "dykemobile", which received TV airtime; judging the 20th Annual SF Leather Daddy’s contest; raising fetish fashion funds at Ms. World Leather 2002 (and 2003); the first Dyke Daddy, to help raise the leather flag over the Castro; becoming a member of Mama’s Family (Mama’s SF Dyke Daddy); organized the "Revels of Venus" event for leather women where over 300 women partied and dined off two human buffet tables; and, produced the 2003 SF Dyke Boy/Grrl contest. Her charity was the Women’s Cancer Resource Center in honor of all of the women she has known who had cancer (including her mom).
After stepping aside, Vick has remained active in the SF Bay Area leather community. For example, she is a board member of the Inter-Club Fund (ICF) and the ICF’s "Woman of the Year" three of the last four years. Vick is the President of the San Francisco Dykes on Bikes™ Women’s Motorcycle Contingent (SFDOBWMC), which leads the San Francisco’s Gay Pride Parade. She has organized rides to Fresno, Chico, Santa Cruz and San Jose Gay Pride Parades, co-chaired the Pride Parade line-up, and worked the motorcycle parking at Folsom St. Fair. In the long-running battle to trademark “Dykes on Bikes,” Vick’s activities in the leather community were specifically mentioned in the opposition papers as evidence the SFDOBWMC should be denied a trademark. The case is now before the U.S. Supreme Court. Vick has judged several contests: Mr. Hayes Valley, Mr. SF Leather, SF Daddy/boy, Northern California Sir/boy, Mr. and Ms. Alameda County Leather, and IMsL. She has participated in numerous fundraisers. One fundraiser that Vick is especially proud of producing was "Beat the Church Lady," which raised funds for her mom’s participation in the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life. She is on the local organizing committee for the 2008 Leather Leadership Conference 12 to be held in San Francisco April 11 – 13, 2008.
Vick identifies as a butch, top, and Daddy. While Vick’s partner is a femme, boys (all gender expressions) catch her eye as well. She is polyamorous.
