Due to recommendations from the medical community, this event has been postponed. Keep an eye out for the rescheduled date. In the meantime, stay healthy! Our community celebrates diversity in its many forms, including sexuality, gender, kink, religion, and race. We are at the forefront of standing up for disabilities as well and provide accommodation for people with physical challenges of various forms, including reduced scent environments. We provide helpful information for those of us who suffer from depression and other forms of mental illness, providing a safe place to talk about our challenges. But one area of challenge in our community is around the topic of neurodiversity. Neurodiversity is the idea that neurological differences are recognized, understood and accepted. These include many forms of invisible disabilities, including Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Dyscalculia, Autistic Spectrum, Tourette Syndrome, as well as others. Individuals with neurological differences in the kink community speak of feeling marginalized and excluded, while kink organizers struggle with issues of wanting to provide an atmosphere that feels safe and welcoming to all. Come join The Eulenspiegel Society on 3/24 for our second discussion on this important topic. The discussion will be facilitated by Vir Cotto, a kinkster and occasional presenter. Vir identifies as neuro-divergent, having learning disabilities and ADHD. Struggling with the challenges associated with being "twice exceptional" Vir has an understanding of these challenges of being "different" and can share his insight on both the difficulties that neuro-non-typical people feel, as well as the challenges associated with creating a welcoming, accommodating spaces. Vir Cotto is a kinkster living in New York City and Vancouver, Canada. He's also a vanilla geek with a focus on individual empowerment and taking back control of your technology. Vir been involved with the BDSM community since 2015 and has volunteered and presented for TES in the past. In his spare time, he likes to write about BDSM and his journey. Both inside and outside of Kink, Vir likes to let his geek flag fly. Doors open at 7, class begins at 7:30.

Due to recommendations from the medical community, this event has been postponed. Keep an eye out for the rescheduled date. In the meantime, stay healthy! Shermie will teach the basics of “safe” fire play, as oxymoronic as it sounds, including fire fleshing and fire cupping. Within the “What It Is That We Do” community, fire play is considered one of the most dangerous, if not the most dangerous, form of play. It can also be an intensely sensual form of edge play. It's classified as edge play simply because out-of-control flame could result in terrible consequences. This class will go over safety techniques and basic kinds of fire play. Shermie has been in the scene for well over a decade. Subjects he has taught include fire play, dry and wet (blood) cupping, suturing, pallet wrap suspension and mummification, BDSM and Dungeon 101, as well as needle play. He has also taught about sex, health and kink at Columbia Presbyterian Medical School and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Doors open at 7, class begins at 7:30.

In these uncertain times, we all have lots of questions. While we don't have the answers to your questions about the lockdown, we may be able to answer your questions about locking down your lover! Join Alex and Madeline, a kinky couple with 16 years of experience in the public BDSM scene, for a BDSM Q&A. What they haven't experienced, they have probably seen or helped clean up after. No question will be deemed too dumb or basic, and not just because we haven't negotiated humiliation. Alex and Madeline are both trained scientists who love to use their analytical minds and love of learning both in the bedroom and the dungeon. They have been very active in the Chicago, Minneapolis/St. Paul and now New York communities, helping to run BDSM organizations, assisting with large-scale events, and teaching classes on various edge play techniques. They have a reputation for enjoying some of the odder branches of BDSM play and for being lucky to have found each other’s sick minds. Alex can be found on Fetlife at ninjajuicer and Madeline can be found at saltygoodness. To participate, simply visit https://datingkinky.com/TES-Tuesdays every Tuesday, at 7pm.
