BDSM Reading Group in the park

BDSM Reading Group at Studio LUX

We are hosting a monthly BDSM reading group in English, open to both professionals and non-professional BDSM players who want to learn about BDSM practice through its history, theory and politics. 

This month we will continue reading about the lesbian-feminist sex wars with essays from the anti-S/M anthology Against Sadomasochism (1982). Against Sadomasochism was written as a critique of the (San Francisco-based) lesbian leather scene and reflects prominent feminist (mis)conceptions of BDSM - many of which are still relevant today.

Each week, we will discuss the assigned readings in an informal, self-moderated form with guided questions. While we encourage completing the readings beforehand, you may still participate if you haven't read everything. 

Reading this month:

"Among Us, Against Us - The New Puritans" by Patrick Califia (1981)

Location: Tempelhofer Feld, near the Northside Biergarten: https://maps.app.goo.gl/JM6DBoefizY9dWMJ8
