Margrét is in the running for chair person
I have decided to run for chairperson of the board this year. I have been active in the Icelandic BDSM community since 2012 and have been the chair person since 2019.
I believe that aside from serving as a member of the board, the main role of the chairperson is to be the official face of the BDSM community when needed. I’d like to think that I’ve done a decent job of it so far.
I have been interviewed a few times and the resulting articles have been well received and I’ve tried to use my position to change the public preconception of BDSM. I’ve also put some effort into strengthening the cooperation with Samtökin ’78, the national queer association, and have worked there as a counselor.
About me: I am a psychologist, and my work revolves around queer issues, both within the public health system and within S’78. I am neurodivergent and genderqueer, and my interests are e.g. Human diversity, plants, animals, making art and creating something with my own hands.
