Too Kinky For Words

Playing way off the edge

Everyone loves to claim they play on the edge, or their style of being kinky is somehow greater than the average pervert. Yet even among the uber-kinky, there are those of us who have fantasies - or play styles - which seem to be beyond what is considered "acceptable." Is your kink really "OK"? How can you tell? Are there boundaries to fantasies? Should there be?

Should we/can we own our most unmentionable ones? How do you share fantasies with a partner if they make you uncomfortable?

This workshop is more of a guided discussion group on the process of identifying, naming, sharing and potentially enacting our scariest fantasies. It's not about being outrageous to shock others - it's about fear of community mores, worries about personal responsibility, shameful eroticism and secret joys.

This is a "closed door" workshop - once it begins, we will close the door on the outside world, both vanilla and kinky, and let loose. Participants must come prepared to write down a fantasy or playstyle (anonymously, if they wish) and turn it in to the presenter.
