Negotiating the Kinky Culture of Consent


BDSM (Bondage / Discipline, Dominance / Submission, Sadism / Masochism) can seem like an impassible dark tangled jungle of perverted, kinky sex. And make no mistake, there’s kink and there’s sex, and there’s perversion! But at the core, is consent. The central tenant of the BDSM / Leather community is that all participants are there willingly and joyfully, pursuing their dark dreams and ethereal passions. In order to safely and fully develop one’s sexuality, it is absolutely vital that we know ourselves before endeavouring to go out and get our freak on! In this discussion, we’ll explore the means by which we plumb the depths of our desires and give ourselves permission to be the big, bad, bodacious beings we wanna be! Then, we’ll expand that exploration outward, and discuss ways to insure we are getting our needs met when negotiating our lascivious liaisons. In the course of the discussion, we will discuss such vital facets of BDSM and Leathersex as: -Personal Permission. -Maintaining safe boundaries. -Befriending & overcoming fear. -Making friends with “No!” and “Yes!” -Establishing & maintaining consent. -Going with your Gut. Bring in your kinky queries, your secret yearnings, and any questions you’ve ever had about kinky sex! You’ll have every opportunity to share your thoughts and desires safely in a safe space. Whether you’re a brand new newbie or an old jaded pervert, there’s plenty for you to share, explore and discover!
