Hey New Yorkers...
This Wednesday, February 16 at 8 pm, the Relationships Group at TES (run by myself and August) is presenting a new class by Mike S. Now, I want you all to come to ALL of the Relationships meetings (come on, there's only four a year!), but I'm really pushing you to go to this one because:
1. Mike S. is a really great presenter who hasn't presented in a while - don't miss this chance to see him in action. (People are STILL talking about his "Unleashing the Demon" class at TES Fest '06.)
2. This isn't a class topic you've seen or heard before. It's different and unusual, and will get you thinking about how you play in entirely new ways.
3. You get to see me there! :)
So here's the class. See you there!
"A Sadist's Guide to the Use of Empathy" with Mike S.
Empathy is a necessary part of the dark and treacherous terrain of intense S/M play. How does one truly see or know another, and how can that be exploited toward consensually sadistic ends? Are there risks? To whom? This class in simplest terms: "I see you. I feel you. And THAT..is how I am able to hurt you."
