Online – Boldly Bottoming Discussion Group August 4 @ 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM Virtual Boldly Bottoming follows a discussion-based format where those who identify as bottoms can come together to discuss the various topics we face. Our discussions look to foster community, share knowledge, and promote safety in the community. Discussions are centered around experiences and learnings from those who choose to participate. Knowledge sharing does occur, but from a personal perspective. This space is for bottoms, submissives, slaves, switches, or anyone who sometimes identifies on the right side of the slash some or all of the time. Bio: My name is Kathy, and I’m a white, queer, polyamorous woman who identifies as a service-oriented bottom within the kink community. My presentation style is rooted in service and a deep devotion to leaving a positive impact on the world by creating spaces where others can explore their own authenticity. I am a systemic sex therapist, live in Philadelphia with my angelic cat, Jojo, and have been active in my local kink community since November 2022. In addition to hosting Boldly Bottoming, I also teach on topics such as service, rope, bottoming, and negotiation in my local scene.
