Just the Tips: The Ins and Outs of Attending a Kinky Convention

March 10 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Presented by Cinder

Kinkfest is next month! Whether you are attending your first kinky con, first in 3 years, or third this month, our panelists will help you prepare. Going to a kinky con can be overwhelming and we will share our tips and tricks to help you get the most out of your experience and make it a positive one! We will cover a myriad of topics including negotiating pickup play, budgeting for the vendor hall, fueling up, and more. We will make sure to save some time at the end to answer any of your questions we don’t cover.

This panel will cover the experience of attendees, not the operations aspects of conventions like KinkFest. All opinions are those of the presenters.

Cinder will moderate a panel featuring Axis and Maeve McBride.

COVID NOTE: At present, it is our intention to require 1) proof of vaccination, or negative test within 48 hours of the party 2) masks (except when actively eating, drinking or scening), and 3) if you are unmasked (when drinking/eating/playing) only do so with people you can contact in the event of subsequently discovered COVID exposure.

Bios:

@PDXCinder (He/Him) is a queer, sadistic, switchy top and Daddy with a penchant for hitting butts with things and tying up people of all sizes, gender, and abilities. He is fascinated with the dichotomy of pain for pleasure, and loves watching screams turn to snorts and giggles.
Cinder feels most himself when telling dad jokes, in service to our community in the form of DMing, serving as a taster at Kink events, education at every opportunity(formal and especially informal) that he gets. He also loves nerding out about all aspects of rope bondage, impact play, cigars/play/service, and BDSM in general.

@MaeveMcBride (she/her/they), is a sexological herbalist, educator, green switch-witch and writer, who has been exploring the intersections of kink, sacred sex, plants, and magick for nearly 20 years. She teaches both public and private classes, hosts events, and loves empowering folx to manifest their erotic and kinky dreams.

@Axis (He/Him)
Ridiculously methodical, methodically ridiculous. Born in the 70’s, kinky since the 90’s, 15 years DM experience. Former DM at Bondage-a-Go-Go at the Glas Kat and The Citadel in San Francisco, event host, woodworker, photographer, and designer. Works at Burning Man, feeds squirrels out of his hand, enjoys grilled shishitos.

COVID NOTE: At present, it is our intention to require 1) proof of vaccination, or negative test within 48 hours of the party 2) masks (except when actively eating, drinking or scening), and 3) if you are unmasked (when drinking/eating/playing) only do so with people you can contact in the event of subsequently discovered COVID exposure.
