Graydancer & Naiia: Redefining BDSM Communities - Ep 52

We sat down with BDSM & rope bondage superstars, Graydancer & Naiia, to talk about the BDSM "scene". Some assume this group is ripe with open communication, ethical behavior, and clearly negotiated consent because those concepts are cornerstones of BDSM. It turns out kink communities have their fair share of toxicity and inequity too-- just like most other social groups. Gray & Naiia share some innovative perspectives on these issues and discuss possible solutions. They've even implemented some themselves, namely popularizing an "open source" style conference model that is revolutionizing the way the rope and kink communities operate. Interestingly, this conversation doesn't just apply to kink-- most communities (yoga, theater, work groups, bowling leagues-- you name it!) can benefit from this episode. Appropriately we recorded this live at the COPE BDSM conference which was the perfect backdrop!
