We sat down with BDSM & rope bondage superstars,
Graydancer & Naiia, to talk about the BDSM “scene”. Some assume
this group is ripe with open communication, ethical behavior, and
clearly negotiated consent because those concepts are cornerstones
of BDSM. It turns out kink communities have their fair share of
toxicity and inequity too-- just like most other social groups.
Gray & Naiia share some innovative perspectives on these issues
and discuss possible solutions. They’ve even implemented some
themselves, namely popularizing an “open source” style conference
model that is revolutionizing the way the rope and kink communities
operate. Interestingly, this conversation doesn’t just apply to
kink-- most communities (yoga, theater, work groups, bowling
leagues-- you name it!) can benefit from this episode.
Appropriately we recorded this live at the COPE BDSM conference
which was the perfect backdrop! (Original photo used in our
