Living on the Edge: A Discussion on Humiliation, Suffering, and Edge play
About this Class
We'll discuss the psychological and emotional complexities of these forms of play, the unique risks they present, and the importance of informed negotiation, communication, and risk awareness. You'll learn about common pitfalls, potential physical and emotional consequences, and practical strategies for helping keep both yourself and your partners as safe as possible while navigating these intense experiences.
Because this class examines topics at the outer limits of consensual power exchange, participants should expect discussion of a variety of sensitive subjects.
Please note: This class does not include discussion of race play or Nazi-themed dynamics.
