AUTISM AND KINK
In this workshop, we look at the overlap of autism and kink. We'll be answering questions like:
You'll be able to leave the workshop with a better understanding of the intersections of autism and kink, how to better understand and move through the experience of interacting with yourself or someone else as an autistic person in a kink setting, and how to communicate and negotiate better.
This workshop isn't just for autistic folk, it can help anyone who feels like an outsider or would like to create a more inclusive environment.
đĽThis workshop will be recorded and available for replay for 1 week after. Only ticket holders who purchased tickets prior to the end of the workshop will receive the recording. The recording cannot be purchased after the completion of the workshop.
