Failure Isn't An Option --
It's A Requirement
with JustRob & JustKaren
Join us after the Orlando Munch at the Woodshed for a fun-filled class!
In this interactive session, we will discuss the issue of failure (or mistakes) in BDSM communities. Making and learning from mistakes is an important component of success. However, in the culture of S/M, Leather, and BDSM we have placed a significant amount of taboo around failure that doesn't in my view truly recognize the value of failure on our individual paths. This session will discuss this in detail and brainstorm some ways we can change this and set more positive and constructive cultural norms.
About the Presenters:
JustRob (He/Him/His) has been involved in the public community in Jacksonville, FL since 2008. He identifies primarily as a Top and a Leatherman, but on occasion takes on the roles of Sadist, Dominant, Leader, Mentor and Teacher. He leads the committee that runs the local group Alternative Lifestyles Enthusiasts (A.L.E.), he “organizes” the weekly Taco Tuesdays event, and is a historian for The Leather Quilt Project.
JustKaren (she/her) is a self-described enthusiastically, obnoxious extrovert and ethical hedonist. She has been an active member of her local BDSM & Leather communities since 2008. Karen acts as a committee member that runs Alternative Lifestyle Enthusiasts, a Northeast Florida-based educational munch. She also assists in facilitating and hosting events for the Polyamory in Jacksonville group. Karen is passionate about advocating for all types of Kink and Leather communities, groups, and activities. Of particular interest to her is the education and mentoring of new people in our Lifestyle.
This class will be taking place in a hybrid format, meaning it will happen both in-person at The Woodshed and streaming via Zoom!
