SUMMARY:Kink and Neurodiversity
DESCRIPTION:Intimate connections are often complex\, tender\, and beautifully messy. Each of us brings different ways of sensing\, thinking\, feeling\, and communicating—and when those differences meet\, misunderstanding can easily arise. When intimacy\, touch\, and desire enter the picture\, this complexity can deepen even further. \nWithin kink and erotic play\, where communication\, boundaries\, and consent are central\, neurodivergent ways of experiencing the world can shape connection in important ways. This makes it vital to talk openly about neurodiversity—the natural variation in human minds—and about the lived experiences of neurodivergent people within kink and intimate spaces. \nHow can we create more supportive\, curious\, and spacious approaches to intimacy and play? What becomes possible when differences in processing\, communication\, and sensory experience are met with care rather than assumption? \nIn this open discussion and experiential lab\, Caritia invites participants into a shared exploration of kink and neurodivergence. Together\, we will engage in personal reflection and collective dialogue\, sharing experiences\, questions\, and perspectives. Rather than seeking fixed answers\, this space centers nuance\, curiosity\, and the ongoing practice of learning how to be in connection with one another. \nNote: This workshop embraces neurodiversity as an evolving conversation. It is not intended to provide rigid definitions or one-size-fits-all solutions. \nWho is this for\nThis workshop welcomes: \n\nPeople new to kink\nPeople with minimal or extensive kink experience\nNeurodivergent participants (including autistic participants)\nNeurotypical participants\nPeople in relationships or connections that include neurodivergent and/or neurotypical partners\nAnyone curious about how neurodiversity shapes intimacy\, communication\, and play\n\nConcepts & formats for exploration\n\nOpening meditation and orientation\nWhat is neurodiversity? A broad-spectrum understanding\nIntersectionality\, boundaries\, negotiation\, and care\nLanguage\, perspective\, and intention in intimate communication\nMaking space for difference—and noticing what that space requires\nFormats including self-reflection\, small-group discussion\, and whole-group dialogue\nGentle embodiment practices throughout the 2.5-hour session (including a short break)\nOpen\, free-form associative space (as supportive to the group)\nFeedback and closing reflections

SUMMARY:Kink is Political - Ambiguity
DESCRIPTION:Kink is Political is an online discussion with Addie Tahl\, Georg Barkas\, Andrea Rimon\, and occasional special guests. Participants are invited to join a discussion during which we unite critique with an emphasis on the practical and day-to-day issues and challenges of kink\, intimacy\, and relationships. \n\n\n\nFocusing on concepts central to BDSM\, leather\, rope\, and sex-positive communities\, it interrogates widely adopted approaches and commonly held notions. It aims to understand the politics of kink beyond the language of sexual liberation and politics of sexual liberalism\, both frames that have proven insufficient in addressing widespread harm\, a rising international tide of sex-negativity and reaction\, or in guaranteeing that the most marginalized can sexually flourish. \n\n\n\nKink is Political is an examination of the contexts and consequences of how we talk about and understand gender and sexuality. It is a forum to think about how kink spaces and practices operate\, what works\, what doesn’t\, and what we can use to build something better. \n\n\n\nThis month’s topic: Ambiguity\nIn March’s session\, we’ll turn towards our experience of “ambiguity.” Against approaches to sex and kink that forefront clarity and transparency\, we’ll think through what value ambiguity has and what the active production and appreciation of ambiguity might bring to the table. Looking towards both the literary critical and our experiences of the everyday\, we’ll weigh the problems and poetic affordances that ambiguity presents in a culture so deeply concerned about security and liability mitigation.

SUMMARY:Un(a)shamed: Ethics\, Kink\, and the Stories We Tell Ourselves
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever heard someone say “kinkshaming is bad\, but some kinks deserve to be shamed”? If so\, do you agree? If you do\, how do we decide? If you don’t\, how do you stand up for yourself? And in either case\, how do we practice kink in a way that aligns with our ethics\, without succumbing to shaming from others?“Un(a)shamed” is a reflective and writing-based workshop that will move us beyond simple slogans and assumptions\, and challenge us to articulate — to ourselves and future partners — our values and ethical boundaries. We will review some different ways of thinking about kink ethics (from a practical perspective\, not a hard philosophy one\, don’t worry!) and then work through a series of guided writing exercises to help us think about what feels right and wrong in our hearts\, bringing those feelings into alignment with our principles\, and articulating those feelings to others. \nJoin this workshop if you would like to…\n\nExplore a practical approach to kink ethics\, reviewing some different frameworks\nThink about your own ethics\, what assumptions you (or the people around you) may be making about what’s good and bad\, and whether you want to articulate those assumptions\, or maybe even change them\nLearn how to incorporate ethics into your negotiations and community participation\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Trauma-informed Rope
DESCRIPTION:Being ‘trauma informed’ has become a buzzword in rope (and kink) spaces but many of us still feel unclear about what it actually means\, especially in rope. This session invites space to explore your own reactions\, patterns\, and think about this topic in practice.\nWe will approach being ‘trauma informed’ not as a moral obligation or clinical practice but a way of meeting ourselves with more curiosity and honesty\, to hold some of the murky complexities.\n\nWhat we will think about\n\n\n\nWhat the pillars of being “trauma-informed” can realistically mean/ or be applied in a kink context\n\n\nStress responses vs. trauma responses? –  and how these might show up for tops and bottoms during play\n\n\nWhat responsibility we actually have to ourselves and to each other and where our limits and non responsibilities lie\n\n\nHow to navigate the erotic\, the sadistic\, desire\, risk\, and intensity in a ‘trauma informed’ way without sterilising or sanitising our play\n\n\nWhat do we think about making play “safe” or “healing through kink”?  How to frame potentially therapeutic experiences without making promises or stepping into roles we shouldn’t
