The Owner/Producers of the Northwest Master/slave Contest are committed to providing the leather/BDSM community with a Regional Master and a Regional slave who will represent the Master/slave community and lifestyle with integrity and competence. The holders of the Northwest Master/slave 2007 titles will be Regional spokespersons for the Master/slave community, and as such, one of the most important attributes of the titleholders should be the ability to clearly and effectively communicate what it means to them to live and identify as Master or slave. 

It is expected that the holders of the titles will take every opportunity to educate the leather/BDSM community on the Master/slave lifestyle, and will actively seek out venues that will allow them to speak on Master/slave issues, whether that be through speeches, seminar presentations, participation on panel discussions, writing articles, etc.  It is also expected that title holders actively pursue fundraising for the charity of their choice as a way of giving back to the community. 

The Northwest Master and slave titles are not about a particular "look," dress, body type, gender or sexual orientation. There is no required set of protocols that the winners are expected to follow. Contestants are not required to have a formal "platform;" however, questions from the judges regarding any specific plans or goals the contestants might have should they win the titles are quite appropriate.

The Northwest Master/slave contest is also a feeder contest for the International Master/slave contest held in Texas each February. Winners of the NWMS contest will be expected to enter that contest and represent the Northwest Region at the South Plains Leather Fest events.
