GWNN BASH 2024

**TRIGGER WARNING:
Deals with taboo subject matter**

Have you ever felt drawn to playing with concepts that seem vile? Are you drawn to things that most perceive as horror? Within the BDSM community, taboo play is widely considered a high-risk form of edge play. The intensity of taboo play calls to some of us but the risks (emotional, spiritual, psychological, and physical) are very real. So how do you make your fantasies a reality, while being mindful of the risks? This discussion is going to talk about the practical realities of playing with taboo and its inherent risks. We’ll chat about responsibilities, logistics, managing risk, and how to handle things when they go wrong. Warning: this class will touch on taboo scene themes that can be very charged and challenging. We may/will speak about scenes that involve themes of incest, domestic violence, rape, race, and weaponry.
