Negotiating BDSM Relationships

The BDSM smorgasbord by Ceci Ferox is a tool that helps you negotiate your kink-based or flavored relationships. It is not only a map of kinks or a yes-no-maybe list, but it helps you ask the right questions to also navigate the emotional, relational, and social aspects of your dynamic. The smorgasbord is useful in relationships from platonic to romantic, casual to 24/7, and switchy playful to hardcore power exchange.
This workshop helps you negotiate your BDSM relationships using this tool by Ceci. You can attend solo to get more knowledge for yourself or with a partner to negotiate your existing or budding dynamic.

Who is this event for?

LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid,

Friends describes people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer safe(r) space and its marginalized community.

When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people’s chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender straight privileges.

Friends don’t have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
