Blurring the Lines: Consensual Non-Consent

This class will be held LIVE online via Zoom — Zoom links are sent out 3 days prior and then again 1 hour prior to start time. The class will be recorded and available for a limited time shortly following the class. Registration deadline: 1 hour prior to class Pacific. No day-of cancellations.



Statistics show that over half the population has had fantasies about consensual non-consent (CNC) encounters. What is consensual non-consent play? It is a type of sexual play in which consenting adults engage in a scene where one of the people involved acts as if they are not enjoying it. Join Miss Mackenzee for this workshop about a taboo subject that can make people hesitant to dive into the deep end.

There are tons of fun and playful ways to dip your toes into CNC. Are you nervous to approach your partner about this subject? No worries! By the end of this workshop, you will have the tools to confidently talk with your partner about it. Plus, you’ll hear from seasoned players on why they engage in and advocate for consensual non-consent scenes. Other topics that will be discussed are:

• Navigating the tricky realm of consent with CNC
• How to negotiate for this type of play
• Shadow play: what it is and how it can be healing and empowering
• 7 ways to incorporate CNC into your sex and/or play
• What to do if things don’t go as planned
• The importance of aftercare

Trigger warnings: discussions and demos may include rape play and intense edge play.
