House Rule

Any violation of the rules might result in a hard ban from our future events. We might also share the incident report with other kink groups, especially In cases of intentional consent violations or serious rule breaches.

1. Consent matters. Always ask for consent before touching anyone (including handshake/social hugs), their belongings or their food.
2. Don't make assumptions about anyone’s gender, sexuality, or kink preferences. Allow people to self-identify on their own terms.
3. Remember: People don’t need to “prove” their identity by being visibly queer or passing.
4. Respect other’s identity and pronouns. Always ask for and use the correct pronouns and names.
5. If you accidentally misgender someone, simply correct yourself and continue the conversation without drawing unnecessary attention. If needed, you may apologize or check in with them afterward to ensure they’re okay.
6. There is zero tolerance for hate speech. Any form of discrimination, including racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or body shaming, will not be tolerated.
7. Everyone shares at their own comfort level. Do not pressure anyone into discussing their identity, kink preferences, or personal experiences. Don’t ask the same question twice.
8. Please ask for consent before sharing potentially triggering topics, such as abuse or self-harm, with those involved in the conversation. Avoid graphic details when sharing traumatic experience(s), as it may re-traumatize yourself and/or trigger others.
9. Cruising is not allowed, i.e. You may find connections through this space, but please don't approach others solely to suggest sexual or play relations. Take time to get to know someone as a person before initiating play or intimacy.
10. Respect that others have differing opinions and a right to express their thoughts. Stay curious and ask questions. Don’t try to convince them to change; instead, try to understand their beliefs.
11. If you can’t reach a point of understanding or don’t feel a disagreement is worthwhile pursuing, a phrase you can use to end the conversation is, “Let’s agree to disagree.” If someone says this, please respect it and move on.

Our Hosts are here to help if you feel uncomfortable or in need of any assistance.
