Protocols in the Vanilla World

with Marilyn and Rio

a live and recorded online class from Wicked Grounds

1/24 2pm Pacific

Advanced ticketing required to attend live or through the recording.

How do you handle the protocols in your hierarchical relationship when you’re with non-kinky people - relatives, vanilla friends, children, co-workers, and the like? In this class we’ll discuss the implications of exercising your protocols in vanilla space, prioritizing which protocols you most wish to keep and in which situations, and different strategies around handling those protocols.

PRESENTERS:

Marilyn and Rio, Mistress and collared slave, served as Northwest Master and slave 2023. Marilyn is a Master, a sadist who likes to play very hard, and a control freak with an intense blood lust. Rio is a butch leatherdyke, a knife fetishist, a hopeless romantic, and is obsessed with service.

Their home club is the Exiles, where they spent many years as officers. They are also active in MAsT San Francisco, where Marilyn is the Director. Rio is currently the Secretary of the San Francisco Bay Area Leather Alliance, and served as Ms. San Francisco Sober Leather in 2016. Together and separately they have taught, judged, MC’d, tallied, and sung at many events across the country, including Northwest Leather Celebration, Southeast Leatherfest, Southwest Master/slave Contest, International Ms. Leather/Ms. Bootblack, Leather Leadership Conference, the Folsom Street Fair, and more. And they delight in welcoming people into the M/s, leather and kink communities.

In her non-kink life Marilyn is a computer professional with two adult gender-variant children, and is active at her synagogue. Rio is a career bookseller, a published author, and an award-winning painter. But nothing makes her happier than to be naked at home serving her Mistress.
