Oops all Objectification

Class Description:

This class will start with a group discussion on what it means to be objectified and various ways that might present. We will then transition to a series of exploratory short activities intended to take you out of your comfort zone and taste test some of the many ways that objectification can be achieved. After each activity, we will regroup and discuss. This class is accessible to people self-tying as well as tying with a partner across a wide variety of skill levels.

As a disclaimer, objectification can be very heavy. Because of this, our presenters ask that attendees already be comfortable with risk aware negotiation and be prepared for the possibility of drop. You will never be required to do an activity for any reason.

Pre-requisites/Additional Materials:

Rope
Writing Implement
Aftercare Items (Optional but recommended)

About the Presenters:
Blue’s initial interest in rope was through the lens of a camera. That led to a short-lived period of self-tying that was quickly overtaken by Blue’s journey as a rope top. Blue has been tying since 2018, and they have since become an extremely sadistic rope top. In that time, they also developed a strong background of experience and passion for modifying ties for full effectiveness around nerve complications and other physical limitations. As a perpetual student, Blue believes everyone has something to teach them and will happily share anything they know in turn.

Play Party

Any play (within LNK venue guidelines) is welcome at this party! Party rules can be reviewed at louisvillenk.com/rules. At this party, the venue will be set up with rope in mind. Extra floor play space and hardpoints will be set up, though the usual furniture (crosses, benches, etc) will be available too. Have a question at the party or need some help making the space work for your scene? Talk to an event team member, identifiable by their bright yellow lanyards and safety shears!

LNK Rules & Ban Lists: All LNK rules, ban lists, and expectations apply to our events in addition to any that we set. Please be sure to review these rules linked in the ticket confirmation.
Consent: Be sure to negotiate BEFORE touching someone and/or someone's belongings AND before having a rope experience with someone, even at classes. If you're not sure how to navigate consent and negotiations, please ask SnappedGinger or event staff (identifiable by the yellow lanyards).
RACK Space: Interact at your own risk. If you have questions or concerns at the event, please talk to SnappedGinger or event staff.
