BDSM Beyond Binary – Queer Stripclub

An Interactive Workshop

Taking the roles of service providers and clients is the opportunity to playfully explore what we’re willing to give, and what we want.

As a sex worker, Emilian will guide you through this process, while offering knowledge and advice on playing with these concepts in a way that is respectful of sex worker’s experiences and struggles. They will also provide tips about consent, and a lap dance demonstration.

In this fun and intimate roleplay, you will have the experience of approaching the clients, offering them the services that you’re willing to provide, and being paid – not in actual money – but in compliments. You will also have the experience of being the client, having someone you don’t know coming to you to offer services, and choosing what you want to experience.

Lap dances are on the menu, but also services like listening to someone, giving them a hug, or even a spank. No prior knowledge is required. You can participate even if you don’t feel like giving or receiving a lapdance. Come as you are, with the outfit and gender expression that make you feel good on that day!
