SUMMARY:ONLINE: Sustainable Dominance: Managing Capacity in Long-Term Leadership with Aidan Sunassee
DESCRIPTION:Long-term dominance asks a great deal of a person. While maintaining a dynamic is a shared responsibility\, many Doms choose to carry a significant share of the structure\, planning\, co-regulation\, and day-to-day care that keeps it running. Over time\, that responsibility can become exhausting\, particularly if they feel expected to remain endlessly capable\, composed\, and available. \nThis class focuses on the emotional and practical work of sustaining authority over time\, without falling into the dreaded pit of burnout. We will discuss decision fatigue\, Dom drop\, resentment\, inconsistent capacity\, unrealistic expectations\, and the pressure to be “the stable one” through every demand life places upon you and yours. \nYou will learn ways to communicate boundaries and capacity clearly\, receive support\, and build systems that involve submissive partners in maintaining the relationship they are also part of. If you’re a D-type who loves holding responsibility (perhaps a little too much)\, an s-type who wants to learn more about D-type burnout\, or anywhere in between\, this is the class for you! \nPRESENTER: \nAidan Sunassee (he/him) is a certified sexologist\, educator\, researcher\, and active member of the kink community. His facilitation style is trauma-aware\, grounded in inclusive practices\, and informed by both personal experience and academic research. He is dedicated to bridging the gap between academic knowledge and lived experience\, creating spaces where community voices are centered\, respected\, and empowered. Aidan is affiliated with the APA Division 44 Taskforce on Kink and BDSM\, serves on the board and research team of TASHRA\, and teaches with the Center for Positive Sexuality. His independent research explores how pleasure and power exchange intersect with healing in kink spaces and dynamics. Beyond his research\, he has developed and led community education programs on kink\, consent\, trauma awareness\, and ethical non-monogamy. \nAt the core of his approach is a belief that academic knowledge and lived truth must meet and challenge each other. \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested. We offer several price points\, so that cost is less of a barrier to attendance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/f1689c15e9

SUMMARY:ONLINE: DIY Power Dynamics with Empress Oxblood
DESCRIPTION:When you hear the term “Dominant/submissive relationship” a specific image may come to mind: a leather-clad domme with a high-heeled boot on her bound and gagged submissive’s back or perhaps a handler leading their masked pet around on a leash made of heavy chains. \nThere’s a reason these aesthetics captivate. They’re sexy\, dangerous\, intriguing\, and spark something deep and primal. \nBut what if none of that works for you? Where do you fit in? Join Empress Oxblood as we strip away the leather\, unhook the leash\, remove the collar\, and explore the core skills you actually need to DIY a dynamic that’s unique to you. Whether you’re casually interested\, completely new\, or an experienced player\, you’re invited to discover your own power (or lack thereof). \nPRESENTERS: \nEmpress Oxblood (she/her) brings a bright\, nurturing touch to even the most sadistic of scenes. She’s a pervertable witch\, Trickster Goddess\, and mischievous dominant who fucks a lot of trans women. She is the proud owner of her service dog\, nadya oxblood\, and serves as the treasurer for Sex Positive Portland\, operations lead for Carnal Abyss\, and an educator for Hitchin’ Bitches PDX. \nnadya oxblood (she/her) is a writer\, activist\, submissive\, and all-around dumb slut who seeks stillness through bondage and calm through pain. when she’s not serving on her knees or exploring the outer limits of what trans bodies can do\, she likes to gaze longingly out the window and wonder why she’s like this. \nTICKETING: \n$30 suggested; sliding scale available for accessibility. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/b0b8b0c076

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Bottom Responsibility: Agency\, Accountability\, and Risk Literacy in Kink with Sarai
DESCRIPTION:Bottoming is not passive\, and submission is not a waiver. This course confronts the cultural tendency to outsource responsibility to Tops while treating bottom education as optional. Using psychological frameworks including learned helplessness\, authority bias\, and cognitive avoidance\, alongside real-world scenarios\, we examine how unexamined conditioning\, deference to erotic authority\, and avoidance of risk literacy contribute to unsafe dynamics\, misattributed harm\, and repeated community conflict. We also address the distinction between regret and consent violation\, how harm narratives get distorted when decision-making is omitted from the story\, and why an educated bottom is significantly harder to exploit than an uninformed one. \nThis class is designed for bottoms who are willing to show up informed\, self-aware\, and accountable. It is not a validation space and does not center comfort. Participants may find their assumptions challenged and their feelings tested. Come prepared\, or don’t come at all. Growth requires honesty\, and honesty can sting\, but it also saves lives\, relationships\, and communities. \nPRESENTER: \nSarai311 (any/all) is a BIPOC kink educator\, poet\, and event organizer with a decade of experience across classroom and community learning spaces. She brings eight years of formal teaching and three years of active kink engagement into her work\, blending curriculum design\, emotionally grounded facilitation\, and embodied pedagogy. A doctoral candidate\, her research on identity development and culturally relevant pedagogy directly informs her kink education practice. \nWithin the kink community\, she has served as a Dungeon Monitor\, demo bottom\, and board member for Whippersnappers TNG\, and is the founder and lead organizer of BIPOC at Frolicon. She presents across the Southeast at events including Frolicon\, Southeast Leatherfest\, and Dark Odyssey\, and has been published thrice in Black Leather in Color Magazine. Sarai311 is also the author of ‘What We Could Never Be’ and ‘Unholy Attachments’\, and is known for creating spaces where kink\, identity\, and intentional self-exploration can safely coexist. \nTICKETING: \n$20 – $40 in advance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/6c953c13eb

Whether you’re curious about kink\, a relative newcomer\, or a seasoned kinkster looking to sharpen your communication\, you’ll walk away with new perspectives and skills. \nGet ready to navigate your desires with a newfound swagger and make every negotiation count! \nPRESENTER: \nMiriam Green (they/them) has been active in the public kink scene for over twenty years and an instructor for more than twelve\, focusing on communication skills\, impact play\, and advanced kink techniques.
