With its launch of Kinkster MAG in fall 2015 followed by its apparel and merchandise branded as Kinkster NYC shortly after the publication, the seeds were sown for the formal establishment of Kinkster Brands NYC in fall 2016.

The stereotypical images prominent in traditional gay media outlets offered little for them to connect with and led them to believe there was a specific norm within the LGBT community. As they came of age, met others, and experienced different people and environments, they learned that like most groups and subgroups what's considered "normal" is far more complicated and nuanced than what media and society had them believing.
