We started 2018 with our first event #BLUFclub stand at Leather Pride in Belgium, which was great fun.
We also launched our first iPhone app, added a US gear store, and hosted almost 200 events in 30 cities - thanks to our volunteers around the world for that

We turned 21, and over 400 people joined the club this year.
And, of course, we had our legal problems in Berlin. I'm tremendously grateful to all who helped with that, both financially and giving me moral support

We raised a record amount this year - but a massive chunk of that has been spent on legal fees. We now own the right to our name, across the EU. Thanks also to our amazing lawyers in Munich
OK, so where does #BLUFclub stand on trans issues, and things like self-ID? Well, broadly speaking, since it's not a democracy, it stands more or less where I do, since I set policy. So, let's look more at that, shall we?
Firstly, the vast majority of applications to BLUF have always been done online, without an applicant having to be seen in person. Nor have we ever required proof of identification, still less of gender.
The requirement to join is that you are a man, and you meet the dresscode. The bulk of our members are gay, and it would be fair to call us a gay club. But we have straight members, and bi members too.
