Who are you? Desire, intimacy, and play dynamics are frequently a challenge to navigate, with excitement, hormones, and fantasies floating around. There are moments when you simply don’t know and times when everything seems possible. How can you support yourself in finding out what or who you wish to be? Making the decision to be a switch, a sensation explorer, a water dragon, classic dominant, kinky nerd, or a spirited brat. You are invited to start from the beginning, with curiosity, share your thoughts and ideas of who you wish to embody during any play. Are there particular characters you wish to bring to life? Perhaps you simply wish to acknowledge an aspect of yourself as a first step. All is welcome in the intentional space.
Let’s come together to explore, experiment, and devise the play aspects you wish to unleash.
In this discussion and workshop, Caritia will support participants in discovering the layered aspects of who they are and touch on ideas on how to form playful ways in which to bring forward those aspects of your playful persona(s).

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, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
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.
