About this event
AKA "Dating, but make it complicated."Everybody wants a daddy or a master or a submissive, and nobody knows what they're doing to get there. What's more, every class, discussion group, and seminar seems designed for people who already know what they're doing and who've been burned before. Don't want to deal with that? This is the class for you. You'll learn the first steps for exploring your dynamic interests, establishing an initial BDSM dynamic, and how to avoid common pitfalls when you're first learning what kind of relationship might be perfect for you. Scott has been navigating kink dynamics ranging from casual to extremely intimate for almost 15 years. He's explored poly, ENM, M/s, D/s, and several other jargon-y terms that you don't yet know about. Join him for a night of learning not to put your foot in your mouth, step on anyone's toes, and a third idiom that also involves feet for some reason.
