SUMMARY:ONLINE: High Protocol for D/s with Sinclair Sexsmith
DESCRIPTION:Making rules\, tasks\, and ongoing protocol is one of the cornerstones of D/s dynamics. But it can be daunting to figure out where to start\, how to create different structures of protocol for different spaces\, and how to maintain the strict container. \nWe’ll go over some tools that help make protocol easier to experiment with and implement\, such as the cartography of control areas\, the protocol game\, and levels of protocol. Ultimately\, protocol is all about creating adjustable\, adaptable guidelines that feed the dynamic and enhance D/s headspace. You’ll come away from this discussion with tools and structure to elevate your protocol in any situation. \nPRESENTER: \nSINCLAIR SEXSMITH (they/them) is a queer trans butch\, a leather dominant\, and a writer\, focusing on individual\, interpersonal\, and institutional systems of power. They study dominance and submission\, social & restorative justice\, the energetic body\, trauma\, and transformation. They have been in the kink communities since 1999\, and orchestrate transformative kink scenes through written erotica and ritual practice. They actively explore the philosophies of power exchange and the practicalities of sustainable\, long term D/s. As a leather community member\, titleholder\, and organizer\, Sinclair has presented and performed 200+ times at 75+ venues\, including International Ms. Leather\, Dark Odyssey\, SXSW\, Harvard\, and Oz Kink Fest. Their short story collection\, Sweet & Rough: Queer Kink Erotica\, was a 2016 finalist for a Lambda Literary Award\, and they have edited 7 queer erotica anthologies; their latest book is Daddy4Daddy: Queer Kink Erotica. Find Sinclair online at http://sugarbutch.net/find-sinclair \nTICKETING: \n$20-$40 in advance. Please pay at the level you can comfortably afford. We offer a sliding scale\, so that cost is not a barrier to attendance. \nhttps://forbiddentickets.com/events/wicked-grounds/1603a4303f

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Protocols in the Vanilla World with Rio and Marilyn

They are also active in MAsT San Francisco\, where Marilyn is the Director.
