Welcome to the “woo woo” side of the street!

Regaining Agency – Power Sharing Relationships After SA and/or DV (3)
Sexual assault. Domestic violence. Abusive relationships. Sadly, these are far too common in
our modern world. Survivors of such trauma are frequently found in the BDSM community. A
comment at a previous KK raised the question, “Are healthy D/s or M/s experiences possible
after abuse?” This lecture/discussion explores ways to reclaim one’s agency within a power
sharing dynamic. Because personal stories and sensitive material will be under discussion, this
is a closed-door session.

Views from the “s” Side of the Slash – Doormat, Delivery Service or Diva? (2)
Kitten Wood came into the Life in 2007 in the Baltimore/DC area where she trained as a
Leather service slave. In the ensuing 2 decades she has interacted with a wide variety of
approaches to living within a power sharing dynamic. This roundtable discussion encourages
attendees to share “Best of Breed’ options for keeping the exchange alive in the midst of the
real world. Contracts, communication techniques, and red flag warnings about when it might be
time to reach out for help are all possible topics.
