      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hi All,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Venus' Playground is the women's dungeon and demo tent at the Folsom Street Fair. We are putting together a safe  haven for women at Folsom which can be fun but crowded and stressful by mid afternoon. we will have a furnished dungeon and will be presenting demos throughout the afternoon at both a women's only area and a pan sexual area for our non female friends. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you are interested is helping with this please contact me with what shift and jobs you are interested in.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Venus' Playground welcomes all who identify as women in the Past, Present and Future
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Here are the volunteer shifts and jobs we need to fill at Venus’ Playground Sunday Sept 28. We have 1.5 hr shifts and for each shift we have 3 jobs to fill. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Shift times-
&lt;br/&gt;11:00-12:30
&lt;br/&gt;12:30-2:00
&lt;br/&gt;2:00-3:30
&lt;br/&gt;3:30-5:00
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Door- 2 needed- Greet and let in women. Point out the rules and explain the tent to people
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;DM- 2 needed- patrol the dungeon area, hand out supplies, insure dungeon rules are followed. At least 1 year on the BDSM scene preferred. There will be a DMA certified coordinator in the dungeon for any questions or assistance.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Security- 2 needed- patrol the perimeter of the area both inside and outside, watching for sneaky photographers and gaps in the tent walls. There will be a security coordinator with a radio to official FSE security so you will not have to deal with unruly behavior or emergencies. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Xtc is the volunteer coordinator please either post here or contact her directly to let us know which job and shifts times interest you. 
&lt;br/&gt;

      <title>Iron Dom Contest this Saturday at the Citadel</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/f2488186-4436-4872-afaa-99e8c3916310</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Do they Have What It Takes? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Suppose a top was stranded on a
&lt;br/&gt;desert island with only the flotsam and jetsam that washed ashore with
&lt;br/&gt;him. After he takes care of his basic necessities, he fills his
&lt;br/&gt;time making toys...and we know what kind of toys!!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Eventually, someone else washes ashore and lo and behold, that person is a
&lt;br/&gt;BOTTOM!!! After great rejoicing and throwing a party in the new
&lt;br/&gt;companion's honor, of course, they play. But wait!!! What if that
&lt;br/&gt;person who washed ashore was of the incorrect gender or orientation?
&lt;br/&gt;Does the top  have what it takes to make it work anyway?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is what we will find out in this contest to determine 2008's Iron
&lt;br/&gt;Dom!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Here's the deal: After the tops make the toys... they will have to
&lt;br/&gt;perform the hottest and most creative 5 minute scene with their bottom
&lt;br/&gt;in front of both audiences and judges. Oh yes... and did I mention
&lt;br/&gt;that the tops and bottoms will be matched together by the luck of the
&lt;br/&gt;draw... and only have a few minutes to set their scene up before
&lt;br/&gt;coming out to entertain the audience?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Only those who have attended past Iron Dom contests understand how
&lt;br/&gt;much fun this is and how much creativity goes into the making of the
&lt;br/&gt;toys. This really is a must see.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is great fun for everyone, both participants and spectators.
&lt;br/&gt;Come by and watch the contestants make their toys out of various
&lt;br/&gt;things Domina, the famous Frugal Dom, choses. Visit with your
&lt;br/&gt;friends. Stay for lunch and have one of Domina's Justly Famous Sloppy
&lt;br/&gt;Joes (Endorsed by the President of Odyssey Himself.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We are honored to tell you that Citadel is allowing ALL PROCEEDS of
&lt;br/&gt;this event to go to FOOD FOR THOUGHT, the Sonoma County Aids Food Bank
&lt;br/&gt;where Domina Volunteers. And if you're smart, you'll stay for the
&lt;br/&gt;usual Saturday Night Party at the Citadel.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;August 2, 2008
&lt;br/&gt;Contest and Lunch: $25
&lt;br/&gt;Contest only :$20
&lt;br/&gt;Door at 2:30.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Contestants will make their toys from 2:30 until 4:30. The Contest
&lt;br/&gt;will start at 5:00.&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>A class on Pain and Catharsis</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/c146df50-1857-4833-89e2-8c896e98c137</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;"Pain and Catharsis"
&lt;br/&gt;SF Citadel
&lt;br/&gt;1277 Mission Street
&lt;br/&gt;Tuesday June 3rd
&lt;br/&gt;Class from 8-10PM, Doors opening at 7:30
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Would you like to take your masochism to the next
&lt;br/&gt;level? Do you wish to have less fear and more
&lt;br/&gt;catharsis in your scenes? This class focuses on
&lt;br/&gt;exploring and developing ways of channeling
&lt;br/&gt;energy/pain, as well as learning to experience
&lt;br/&gt;catharsis with authenticity. Each participant will
&lt;br/&gt;have the opportunity to try multiple methods for
&lt;br/&gt;processing "pain," as well as gain an understanding
&lt;br/&gt;of the advantages, disadvantages and potential uses of
&lt;br/&gt;these ways of processing sensation in their play. The
&lt;br/&gt;class is geared towards
&lt;br/&gt;masochists, but sadists and other orientations are
&lt;br/&gt;welcome to attend.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Mistress Lark graduated from Humboldt State University with
&lt;br/&gt;A Bachelors Degree in Sexual Arts, focusing on the
&lt;br/&gt;intersections of Tantra and BDSM. She is a Graduate
&lt;br/&gt;of the Journeyman III Academy of California with
&lt;br/&gt;advanced training in Leather history, traditions,
&lt;br/&gt;spirituality and practice. She has taught in both the 
&lt;br/&gt;kink and non kink community for years and is happy 
&lt;br/&gt;to be teaching at the SF Citadel.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Keri has been in the scene for over eight years and is
&lt;br/&gt;a cadet at the Journeyman III Academy, class of 2008.
&lt;br/&gt;Her column, "Kink in the City" can be read in the
&lt;br/&gt;monthly on-line magazine, kink-e-zine.com. Through
&lt;br/&gt;BDSM, she has discovered her own power and
&lt;br/&gt;strength. She identifies as a slave who is not a
&lt;br/&gt;beginner's model.

      <title>New Tribe:  Age Play Among Women</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/660099e3-175b-4711-b571-7331a136288d</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hoping you'll join and/or spread the word.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Thanks, GalaxyGirl 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Age Play Between Women Tribe: This tribe is intended to be a place to discuss age play between and among women. In this context, age play refers to the exploration of affectional and/or sexual relationships between women who are in real life of the age of consent but who wish to role play relationships or interactions in which there is an age differential, such as mother/daugher, aunt/niece, baby sitter/girl, teacher/student, coach/player, etc. This tribe does not concern pedophilia, as all discussions are assumed to concern real life adults. Since there are other tribes that littles can join as littles, the moderator intends this tribe to be a place for adult discussion of age play. &lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Thursday 3/27
&lt;br/&gt;Remedial Ropes, Rt. II: Another trip on the bondage short bus with Stefanos and CheyThis is the perfect class for you if your bondage skills begin and end with tying your shoes. We will briefly cover the basics of bondage safety, building a rope kit, and creating a rope bondage scene. We will then teach a 5-second cuff, the figure 8 knot, a basic body harness, arm gauntlets, and the best arm binder we’ve ever seen. This is an interactive class- everyone will get tied up and everyone will learn to do the ties. Remedial Ropes 1 not required or even necessarily recommended- this is a stand-alone remedial level class.
&lt;br/&gt;Admission: $10-$20 (first $10 to SF Citadel)
&lt;br/&gt;Doors: 7:30 pm
&lt;br/&gt;Rope not necessary, but three 12' sections could help.
&lt;br/&gt;BIO: Stefanos and chey have been doing rope bondage since 2005; they first learned bondage at Shibaricon 2005.

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There shall be much revelry as you enter into the land of Fairy Tales. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Enter unto a location known only to those who have trod the paths of erotic wonder and joy. At the portal leave your cares and worries behind. Fluid bonded pairs and polys are allowed freedom to explore each other without barrier -- but beware -- if you are found seducing the innocent without cundum you shall be punished with summary banishment.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Throne:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Court shall be held, and all complainants from the last year may approach the sergeant-at-arms for an indulgence and audience with a Queen. Some Judgments both true and factual may be had, welcome the punishment or your reward, for they shall be public. Remember that the Drag-on holds the Magical Power of Drag and to approach the Drag-on means to willingly place yourself totally in its power to require you to change or remove your clothes.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Sacred Test:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;To enter the Frolic area one must engage in the kiss of St. Genital. Your choice of kiss shall determine your path based on the whimsy of the Portal Keepers.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Storytelling:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;During the evening's festivities anyone may approach the Bard and ask permission to tell. Telling consists of confessing the hottest thing you have ever done with your sexuality during the orgiastic festivities. You are encouraged to confess publicly while engaged in sex with yourself or others. Occasionally someone may speak in tongues whilst engaging in orgasmic meditation, one may touch oneself during these moments also. In addition, some simple erotic and suggestive stories will be read out loud by local fools of ill repute.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dungeon:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Slings and chains and whips for public miscreants and sensualists, safe clothes check, places to bind and be bound, crosses for the devout, horses to ride (no, not that kind.

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Well, winter is here and it is time to snuggle down with some books and I am looking for recommendations so here goes: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;1.  Your top 10 favorite BDSM related erotic fiction titles (please do not include The story of O, Marketplace Series, or Sleeping Beauty Series)  I am looking primarily for stuff published in the past couple years. 
&lt;br/&gt;

      <title>ask the submissive</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/da2fc66b-513e-4b80-940d-d6cd19eb89ce</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;The Society of Janus, a well respected pansexual kink organization here in San Francisco is reaching out to the community at large for this upcoming panel discussion, moderated by one of our own. Please take a moment to consider this event: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Janus Presents: "Ask the bottom", an evening of Q&amp;amp;A with a cross- selection of local personalities on the bottom/submissive/slave/boy/girl/ property side of the SM Power continuum.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tuesday, November 13 
&lt;br/&gt;SF Citadel
&lt;br/&gt;8:00pm - 10:00pm (Doors open at 7:00pm)
&lt;br/&gt;$5 for Janus Members, $15 for non-members (you do not
&lt;br/&gt;need to be a member to attend)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What motivates a person to walk the path of slavery? What does a submissive want? What joys do those on the bottoming end of the equation receive from their relationships - and what frustrations? What are the differences that distinguish bottom, slave, boy/girl, submissive, proeprty, and how on earth do we come to those definitions? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Ever wanted to ask questions like these, or others? Then this is an opportunity to pick the brains of an awesome and distinguished line- 
&lt;br/&gt;up of local SM community teachers, players, mentors and activists.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We have a terrifically diverse panel for you: jody / patrick / boyjean / mercedes / andrea / slavebill have all agreed to answer your questions and share their thoughts and motivations on why they do what they do. bethie Hope O will facilitate the questions and keep the discussion moving smoothly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This will be a moderated discussion panel, with the opportunity to submit written inquiries anonymously as well as ask your questions 
&lt;br/&gt;directly. Please join us for this rare opportunity to delve into the mind of these mysterious and intelligent people. You may also send 
&lt;br/&gt;questions about the event or questions to be discussed at the event to programs at soj dot org
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Bethie Hope O identifies as a service-oriented slave and adult little girl. She is very blessed to be a ollared slave to her Daddy for the past 2 years. Bethie believes in creating open, supportive communities and is active in both the BDSM and age play communities. She is honored to be an officer in the Society of Janus and she is the creator and moderator of Submissive Safe Space; a monthly discussion group comprised of like minded submissives and slaves. On-line Bethie moderates discussion groups for age play, submission and survivors of abuse and trauma. She lives in the East Bay area with her Daddy, four dogs, 2 turtles and an obscene quantity of stuffed animals. Her favorite crayon is cornflower blue, unsharpened. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;slavebill has been an active member of the Leather Community for almost 20 years and is in his 12th year of service to his Master. he is a co-founder of the San Francisco chapter of the Defenders, has served on the Steering Committee of the Leathermen's Discussion Group and has participated in many workshops including Leather Levi Weekend, the San Francisco boys of Leather, and the Society of Janus. he was a co-sponsor of the Leather Traditions' Service Weekend held last May. In addition to being a 24x7 non-live-in slave, he has a non-leather partner of 25+ years who is understanding and accepting of bill's calling to service as a slave.
&lt;br/&gt; 
&lt;br/&gt;Steve Ward has been a member of the Bay Area Leather / kink community for 10 years. He joined the San Francisco boys of Leather in 2002, and was mentored by many of the more prominent Bay Area Dominants and submissives. Steve serves the 15 Association, as member of the Fraternal Committee and Membership Coordinator. He is also President of the Defenders San Francisco, is a steering committee member of the Leathermen’s Discussion Group, and a representative to the San Francisco Leather Forum. Steve has been involved with Leather-Levi Week-end from 2003 through 2006, on the Spirituality Committee, and organized their annual Cocktail Party to welcome newcomers to the community. In his spare time, Steve is a committee member of the upcoming Leather Leadership Conference 12, to be held in 2008 in San Francisco, and is on a newly-formed Bay Area ad hoc committee of the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom.
&lt;br/&gt;Steve is 55, single…..and always looking for new opportunities.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;patrick was a late bloomer to BDSM.  Growing up in a Catholic household in a small, rural Southern town, he had no clue that including hot wax, needles and rope to his youthful explorations of his body meant he was masochistic; it just felt good.  Fast-forward to Folsom Street Fair 2003, where his heart melted and his cock hardened watching a Daddy flog His boy.  Finally, after reading the "Beauty Series" pushed him to the point of no return, he had his first scene and was introduced to his boy-self.  Since entering the public scene, he has had the good fortune never to have served a Dominant unworthy of his submission, and twice has proudly worn the collars of exceptional Men. Currently, he is a slave-in-training to Master Patrick Mulcahey, whom he knows loves and treasures him.  he believes in the importance of giving back to his community, and when his work schedule and Master allow, enjoys volunteering at leather events.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;andrea Arkouda started her lifestyle journey in 2003 in search of a relationship in which trust was valued above all else. For her, service and obedience are the avenues to achieving a deep interpersonal    connection, and completion. she served her first Master for two years, and is now in service to and wears the collar of consideration of Eric Arkouda. With him, she lives a 24/7 M/s lifestyle, and together they host the San Francisco D/s Discussion Group.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;US PREMIERE! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Bakushi: The Incredible Lives of Rope-Masters (2007, 94 min, 35mm). 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;by Ryuichi Hiroki 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Fri, Oct 19 &amp;amp; Sat, Oct 20, 7:30 pm 
&lt;br/&gt;$8 regular 
&lt;br/&gt;$6 seniors, students &amp;amp; teachers 
&lt;br/&gt;$6 YBCA Members 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;From one of Japan’s most celebrated independent filmmakers. This film quietly explores the “art of erotic bondage” of female models by sadomasochistic masters who have turned rope-knotting into fine art. The centuries-old game of bondage and ritual chastising exists in several cultures, but the ceremonial detail and the stunning precision is as Japanese as flower arranging and pouring tea. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;PLEASE NOTE : Film contains extreme sexual imagery and is intended only for adult viewers interested in the subject matter.

      <title>Queer &amp;amp; Intersexed - Where are they welcome? Where should they be welcome? Where would they be imposing?</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/06ad5878-b2cc-4f45-a6d9-68f9e860688d</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;The below message was posted in a yahoo group &amp;amp; got a bit of discussion..  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I recently saw a flyer for an event, a fundraiser &amp;amp; was curious about
&lt;br/&gt;it. Based on the flyer, I was not certain who is or is not welcome.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Which got me to thinking further on this issue, as it pertains to me
&lt;br/&gt;(and people like me). You see, I am Intersexed. Approximately 1% of
&lt;br/&gt;the population is intersexed (source: ISNA website). So we are in
&lt;br/&gt;fact out there in far more numbers than many folks realise.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I know that the society I live in is a Gendered society. I had to
&lt;br/&gt;select a gender to have a Yahoo email address. But they only offered
&lt;br/&gt;male or female. I am neither.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I am not a man, I am not a woman, I am not Trans. I am Intersexed.
&lt;br/&gt;I am genetically intersexed. Furthermore, I as identify as an
&lt;br/&gt;intersexed person. I see my orientation as Queer. Indeed, I don't
&lt;br/&gt;actually see it as possible for me to be homosexual, hetrosexual or
&lt;br/&gt;bisexual.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;There are Men's Events. Women's events. Trans events. I am none of
&lt;br/&gt;these things. I don't want to be a man. I don't want to be a woman.
&lt;br/&gt;I don't want to Transition. I am happy as I am. Both male and female.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I respect that different spaces &amp;amp; different parties have different
&lt;br/&gt;rules. And I do not want to make anyone else uncomfortable.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;So.. where do I fit? Where do I belong. Where would I be imposing?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I thank you all in advance for your thoughts or input.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Max&lt;/div&gt;

You will be asked about your past and present breath control activities, if any, as well as your sexual history.  This questionnaire is anonymous. You will not be asked for your name or individually identifying information.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Anyone over the age of 18 can participate.  If you have any questions regarding the survey, please contact me at bcpquestionnaire@gmail.com.

      <title>Seeking queer triads for research!</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/3b113c59-da23-4ada-b9ed-f825aa01dbc3</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;My name is Sunny.  I am a graduate student in the Sexuality Studies program at San Francisco State University.  I am conducting research on polyamory. The aim of my study is to explore how individuals in queer polyamorous triads discuss love in their relationships.  I am in search of individuals in queer, long-term (one year or longer), polyamorous triads to interview. Individuals must identify themselves and their relationships as queer, and the triads must be three people who are all sexually and romantically involved with one another.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Participating in this study will entail a 45-90 minute one-on-one interview at a comfortable and private location convenient for both of us to discuss your experiences and feelings of love while in a triad.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If you are currently in a queer, long-term (one year or longer), triad relationship and are interested in participating in the study, please contact me!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;smnordmarken@yahoo.com
&lt;br/&gt;(415) 516-0908
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I am currently seeking people to interview!  Please contact me as soon as possible if you would like to participate.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you!
&lt;br/&gt;Sunny&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>06/14 Sweet Spot - Double Inverted Flogging - a Paideia playshop, at SF Citadel</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/bbc85757-c52c-41bd-8c2c-38bd747596be</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Sweet Spot - Double Inverted Flogging playshop
&lt;br/&gt;with Angela and Iain
&lt;br/&gt;at SF Citadel, in SOMA district of San Francisco
&lt;br/&gt;1277 Mission St at Ninth St
&lt;br/&gt;Thursday June 14th, 2007
&lt;br/&gt;doors 7:00, workshop 7:30 - 10:30 PM
&lt;br/&gt;$15 - $25, sliding scale
&lt;br/&gt;http://groups.yahoo.com/group/EduKink
&lt;br/&gt;http://edukink.tribe.net
&lt;br/&gt;http://EduKink.org
&lt;br/&gt;http://SFCitadel.org
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Most flogging is done in a downward direction.  This is easiest, as gravity does the gathering for you.  However, downward strokes avoid stimulating the sweet spot, so the bottom gets only endorphins, but not as much arousal.  This playshop focuses on effectively flogging upward, into the sweet spot, and ways to solve the problems that arise, such as bounce, pocket, crowding, and scatter.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is a third-level workshop.  To get the most out of it, you would already be comfortable doing some (probably downward) two-flogger techniques.  During the presentation, we will not repeat introductory flogging material.  However, during the hands-on part, we'll work with each attendee at their current level.  The class is aimed at advanced players, but may be suitable for some intermediates.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is a hands-on playshop.  It is best to bring two floggers of similar lengths.  Falls of 16-22" are good for learning this.  Flogger substitute equipment will be available if you don’t have your own.
&lt;br/&gt;Eye protection strongly recommended for tops.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;By the end of this class, you should have more effective inverted strokes, and understand how to convert every downward stroke pattern into an upward pattern.  We will teach inverted three-beat weave to all those who are ready for it.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The evening has four parts (times approximate):
&lt;br/&gt;7 - 7:30  Brown Bag Munch
&lt;br/&gt;7:30 - 8:00  Presentation and Demos
&lt;br/&gt;8:00 - 9:30  Guided Hands-on Double Flogging practice
&lt;br/&gt;9:30 - 10:30  Open practice.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Paideia (“pie DAY ah”) is a Greek word meaning “learning through play”.  Paideia evenings are more than regular workshops.  First we socialize.  You may bring your dinner or snacks to eat during the munch period.  Then we see demos.  Then we do the guided hands-on workshop.  You’ll mainly work in pairs learning and refining your skills.  Then during the open practice period, you may integrate your new skills with other play techniques.  Or you may do more practice, or watch the variety of techniques that others practice.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Partners:  You can practice solo, e.g. on a pillow, or in pairs.  It’s better to prearrange a lab partner, rather than try to pair up during the munch period.  If you want to find a suitable partner in advance, we recommend you join and post on http://edukink.tribe.net
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Reservations not required.  Membership not required.  You don't need to wear anything special.  The event is open to anyone 18 years and older with a sincere, positive, personal interest in BDSM / leather / kink.  All roles, genders, and orientations welcome.  If you have questions you may write to edukink at yahoo dot com

&lt;br/&gt;“Sweet Spot - Double Inverted Flogging” is part of the Paideia series of monthly BDSM/leather events / playshops mainly for those of intermediate or advanced experience.  The format intends to combine the best elements of hands-on workshops, a munch, a play party, and a peer workshop.  More than twenty topics are covered in these playshops, on both common and exotic topics.  We have a core study group who increase the depth and breadth of their play each month, as well as have fun together.

      <title>SF Pride Parade, June 24</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/bfc59421-b175-4e0b-b5a2-20ca470370a2</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;This year the SF Citadel plans to have the biggest presence we have ever had in the LGBT Pride Parade. We will be marching with the LEATHER PRIDE CONTINGENT again. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We will have a truck with flogging demos, and a trailer with our wonderful house band Cuir Blue, playing live bring pulled by the truck. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We also plan on: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Pony carts being pulled by human ponies 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dancing boys and girls 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hot men and Women snapping single tails 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Marchers in leather 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Come and join us and march in the parade. If you have been to the Pride Parade before, you know how fun it can be. If you haven't ever walked down Market Street with hundreds of Leather Folk in the Leather Contingent, now is the time. There is nothing like it. Marchers get the very best view of the crowd and have all the fun. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We want you to join us and march with us on Sunday in the parade. Check out the entire pride page at: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;www.sfpride.org/
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It costs nothing to march and if you are shy, wear a mask or a hood. It's ok to not show your face. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We need contingent monitors and wheel monitors. The parade requires one trained person for every 25 people and we need two for each axle. Our truck has 2 axles and our trailer has 2, therefore, we need 8 people to be wheel monitors and more to be contingent monitors. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Training is held this week. Please attend one of the classes. Please write "LEATHER PRIDE CONTINGENT" on your card after your training. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Here is the official request, time and dates for the training from the head of the Leather Contingent, Jay Hemphill: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;----------------------------------------------------------------Jay's request------------------------------------------------------------------ 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hi Everyone, 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I just wanted to remind everyone of the Monitor Training coming up. Please help push people to get Monitor training, people in your clubs, organizations, relatives friends, etc. I've listed the locations, dates, and times below. Even if by some chance they find out that they can't make it parade day, it would help so much for everyone possible to take the training. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At the training, the contingent name to put on the sign-in sheet is LEATHER PRIDE CONTINGENT. This year we will have 10 vehicles, which will take 40 wheel monitors alone. Plus, 8 more for every 100 marchers, and I estimate that will be 300-400, so 32 more monitors. We can't march if we don't have enough. They keep a running count of monitors trained for the SF Leather Pride Contingent, and it is updated after each training. Last year, the Leather Community really came together and we had enough of you that got trained as monitors to cover the contingent. I am asking you to do the same this year, and I'm sure you will! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;2007 Monitor Training 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Tuesday, June 12 8:30 PM Head Over Heels 1250 45th Street Emeryville, CA 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Wednesday, June 13 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM SF Citadel 1277 Mission St., SF 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Friday, June 15 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM SF Aids Foundation 995 Market St. 2nd Floor 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Saturday, June 16, 2007 3:30 to 4:30 PM LGBT Center 1800 Market St., SF (ROOM # TBA, but is same room as SF Leather Pride Contingent final meeting at 2:30 PM. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sunday, June 17 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM Castro Country Club 4058 18th Street., SF 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Yours in Leather, 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Jay Hemphill, Chairman 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;San Francisco Leather Pride Contingent 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Let's show the world how the wonderful leather families can come together and have a huge turn out. Lets support our kinky lifestyle and march proudly. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The Leather Contingent meets down by the Embarcadero and the parade walks up Market street and ends at 8th St. The Celebration is in Civic Center. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This will be a great day. Lets join hands and join the largest pride parade in the country. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This isn't work, this is exciting fun. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Let us know 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Phil&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At a good party, you’ll see dozens of different techniques in action.  Which ones are easier?  What are they called?  How do you learn them?  Which players are safe and competent, versus merely flamboyant, or even dangerous?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We cover all the techniques you’re likely to see in a dungeon or be asked to try.   For each we include what it looks like, what it feels like for the top and bottom, what it’s really about, safety, equipment, difficulty, and how to learn it.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Coverage includes techniques in ten groups: Bondage, Dominance/submission, Electrical, Fetish, Impact, Medical, Psychological, Role-play, Sensation, and Sex play.  Because of limited time, we cannot fully teach every technique, but this program prepares you to select and attend specialized classes in the individual techniques that interest you.

&lt;br/&gt;This is a low-cost class, compliments of SF Citadel and the presenters.  Your sliding scale payment helps to maintain SF Citadel.  SF Citadel is a large play space and community center in San Francisco.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Reservations not required.  Membership not required.  You don't need to bring or wear anything special.  If time is tight, you can bring dinner to eat during the class.

&lt;br/&gt;“I was in a rut, but now I’ve got lots of new ideas.”

&lt;br/&gt;“Where else could you get so much, all in one place?  Like drinking from a fire hose.  I attended twice.”

      <title>Ride to Rites of Spring from San Jose?</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/8849653a-431e-4bb8-8cbe-61c706b99b36</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hi,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Coming over from Santa Cruz to the women's party, I would so love not to drive!  The Hwy 17 bus is a breeze, but the rest of the way would take disproportionately long by public transit than by car.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Is there anyone going to the party who would be willing to pick me up at Diridon Station in San Jose at 7:30pm and then drive to Edges together?  I don't need a ride after the party.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Optimistically,
&lt;br/&gt;  - Delightful Spirit&lt;/div&gt;

      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/b40e39ac-f536-481d-86fe-568e7a01796d</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Hey all of you Exiles and all of the females that arrived for the Bacchanalia event last now--you all ROCK.  What a crazy event and one not to be forgotten soon.  I was thrilled with the huge turnout and well...the food was ohhhh soooo yummy.  The fucking machine got some use, there were screams and moans echoing throughout the entire dungeon from 8pm on through the night.  Thank you all for a superb event.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;WOW--if you missed getting on the RSVP list in time, or simply missed the party all together: Don't do that again!!  Mark it out now, May 12th is the next big hit.  More info to follow!&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>The Eagle and Hole In The Wall are under attack</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/dd591d8c-7704-4e0b-815a-05d62e9e0be2</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;I got this letter in my email. I've had lots of fun times at the Eagle, with all different sorts of folks. I've never been to The Hole In The Wall, but am gonna try to check it out, in case these idiots manage to shut it down. They are also threatening to have the Eagle shut too. If you can go to the meeting or write to the representatives, that would be great. THere is also a call to boycott Stompers, since the owner of Stompers apparently is the one trying to stop the Hole IN THe Wall and going after The Eagle. It's up to you to decide if that's your thing.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just wanted to pass on the info
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;-robin
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;----
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*******letter from the owners:***** ****
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Dear Friends of SOMA Gay Culture,
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Hole In The Wall Saloon has become famous since it opened some
&lt;br/&gt;thirteen years ago. At the depth of the AIDS epidemic, when gay South
&lt;br/&gt;of Market seemed to be dying, "The Hole" became a joyous retreat for
&lt;br/&gt;our community with an accent on art, fun, and music. A thinking man's bar.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Anyway, the building where it lives now is rapidly falling apart. For
&lt;br/&gt;years we've been looking for a more secure location, and in October of
&lt;br/&gt;2006 we bought a suitable property on Folsom Street.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Shortly thereafter, a man named Jim Meko handed us a letter.
&lt;br/&gt;Allegedly, he had already delivered a copy to the seller's realtor
&lt;br/&gt;before we bought the property. We'd never seen this letter. It stated
&lt;br/&gt;that he and the neighborhood did not want another bar in the South of
&lt;br/&gt;Market area (despite the fact that we had already been here for twelve
&lt;br/&gt;and a half years). So we held a neighborhood meeting and presented our
&lt;br/&gt;plans. We assured everyone that we would address all concerns with
&lt;br/&gt;haste and sincerity. Still, Mr. Jim Meko countered that if he stood at
&lt;br/&gt;the intersection of 8th and Folsom streets, he could hear loud music
&lt;br/&gt;from inside Hole In The Wall on any given night. He stated that The
&lt;br/&gt;Eagle Tavern, our second establishment (which has been a gay bar for
&lt;br/&gt;more than twenty-five years now) was a terrible nuisance and that he
&lt;br/&gt;was constantly annoyed by the commotion from its Sunday community
&lt;br/&gt;benefits. He finally stood up and exclaimed the following to our new
&lt;br/&gt;neighbors: "Don't trust these guys! They're bad bar owners!"
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This last accusation cut the deepest. We've tried hard over the years
&lt;br/&gt;to be a positive force in our small corner of the world. We clean and
&lt;br/&gt;police the streets in front of our establishments. We donate time,
&lt;br/&gt;money, and energy to charities and clubs that we see making a
&lt;br/&gt;difference. Most importantly, we respect our employees as human beings
&lt;br/&gt;with rights. Since the beginning, we've provided them with health
&lt;br/&gt;insurance, paid vacations, and a yearly retreat at The Russian River.
&lt;br/&gt;Despite Mr. Jim Meko's characterization of it as a nuisance, The Eagle
&lt;br/&gt;Tavern raises tens of thousands of dollars for charities and civic
&lt;br/&gt;organizations each year. Finally, we can't count how many gay men have
&lt;br/&gt;sworn they met their life partner at the Hole In The Wall Saloon and
&lt;br/&gt;consider it a sacred place. We're proud of these things and believe
&lt;br/&gt;ourselves to be far from "bad bar owners".
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We were soon informed that a hearing was being insisted upon by a
&lt;br/&gt;second neighbor at the urging of Mr. Jim Meko and that others had now
&lt;br/&gt;been persuaded to oppose the bar's relocation project. We personally
&lt;br/&gt;called this second neighbor. He had never been to Hole In The Wall. He
&lt;br/&gt;had been to The Eagle Tavern once.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;At this point, the future of the Hole In The Wall looks grim. The
&lt;br/&gt;floor and foundation are in bad shape. The bar's days are numbered. We
&lt;br/&gt;can't afford to purchase another building; and in any case something
&lt;br/&gt;similar to all of this would be the certain outcome. South of Market,
&lt;br/&gt;in the hands of the small-minded, has slowly turned petty and
&lt;br/&gt;intolerant. Not only is Hole In The Wall certain to close if we can't
&lt;br/&gt;re-locate, but the future of The Eagle is in doubt as well. Mr. Jim
&lt;br/&gt;Meko's main complaints were directed against it, and he sits on the
&lt;br/&gt;city's Entertainment Commission.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What we're asking for is your spiritual and verbal support. We need
&lt;br/&gt;testimony from people who know the Hole In The Wall and The Eagle
&lt;br/&gt;Tavern and consider them important. Please send a short letter directly to
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;President Dwight Alexander
&lt;br/&gt;San Francisco Planning Department
&lt;br/&gt;1660 Mission St. 5th Floor
&lt;br/&gt;San Francisco, CA 94103
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;OR SEND AN EMAIL TO CHRIS DALY, DISTRICT SIX SUPERVISOR, AT
&lt;br/&gt;chris.daly@sfgov. org
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Your presence and willingness to speak for a minute or two at our
&lt;br/&gt;hearing on Thursday, May 10th beginning at 1:30 would be of immense
&lt;br/&gt;help. It will be at City Hall, Room 400. In any event, the destiny of
&lt;br/&gt;both the Hole In The Wall and The Eagle Tavern are up to their fans
&lt;br/&gt;now... As is the future and spirit of all of South of Market.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sincerely,
&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;From Bottom to Top
&lt;br/&gt;(The Keys and Blocks to Responsive Bottoming)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Do you want to be the kind of bottom that's on every Top's speed dial? Responsiveness is the biggest contribution a bottom brings to the scene, and Madame Gina Grant is here to help you shine. She'll talk about the key elements that make it easier to express your desires and needs while keeping the mood and the energy hot. She'll present different bottom archetypes and their typical responses exhibited to help you discover who you are as a bottom and how to effectively communicate that to your Top. She'll offer you tools to work with emotional concerns that often inhibit responsiveness, and help you make sure that your top is having fun, too! Come learn how to convey both your desire and your pleasure from someone who has been a skilled, candid and experienced bottom, so that you can deepen your SM connection, raise the heat, and be the best bottom you can be! All levels of experience are sure to benefit, whether bottom or Top.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Presenter Bio:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Madame Gina Grant's roots are firmly planted in the San Francisco leather scene, though she enjoys traveling around the country and connecting with kinky, kindred spirits everywhere. She identifies as a power-fluid FemmeDomme whose primary calling in the scene is to foster and develop deep D/s connections through transformative SM play, mindfulness and spirituality, and understanding service as a vocation. She expresses her commitment by teaching and volunteering for such organizations as Society of Janus, Good Vibrations, SF Citadel, TES, and the Center for Sex and Culture, as well as by maintaining her own personal M/s relationships and enjoying both the challenges and rewards that her extended leather family affords her.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;contest. 
&lt;br/&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Vanguard Leather Retreat December 1-3, 2006
&lt;br/&gt;www.vanguardleather.com
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Vanguard is produced by two leather dykes, Lady Hilary and The Marine, each with 15+ years of experience in the SF leather community.  They have been in a 24/7 D/s relationship for 7 years and would like to share the passion of a joyous Leather Path with you.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The experience of Vanguard is not like an evening workshop, nor is it like a run or event weekend, the retreat is focused on the whole person; your heart, head, sex and how they each relate to who you are as a leather man or woman.  Vanguard is a personalized immersion weekend experience diving into your self.

      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/f8bdb387-f037-4525-b248-051c96e15cf1</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;So, I have a question, or a couple!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*Does it help to have a consistent day of the month for the South Bay women's parties?
&lt;br/&gt;*Would it be better for most to host such an event on a Sunday rather than Friday after everyone is tired from the workweek?
&lt;br/&gt;*Do you have suggestions for those that might want to host a demo, class, etc during one of our parties?
&lt;br/&gt;*Where do you seek information about women-only play parties?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Feel free to respond to me here: and thank you!  Also, you're welcome to share this with others and contact me: ali@edges.biz
&lt;br/&gt;There are many of us that really want to see such events succeed!  We appreciate the input.&lt;/div&gt;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Si Vous Plaus: In exchange for the grace of your company (no sex or performance on your part). I offer my services has full-time servant, you may consider me at your disposal for: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;* Whipping-Bitch: Domination and humiliation/transference bitch - feel free to take your bad day out of me. Beat the crap out of me. 
&lt;br/&gt;* Maid: housecleaning and maid service: fixing you a drink, lighting your cigarette 
&lt;br/&gt;* Personal SPA: attendance &amp;amp; rejuvenation doing your nails, shaving/waxing your legs, brushing your hair, massages 
&lt;br/&gt;* Chef 
&lt;br/&gt;* Computer Engineer: any computer work / web - design that is needed, I'm an IT consultant by trade. 
&lt;br/&gt;* Handy-Bitch: minor home and automobile repair 
&lt;br/&gt;* Personal Valet: carry your bags while shopping 
&lt;br/&gt;* Secretarial: overall clerical support: phones, emails, appointments, bookkeeping 
&lt;br/&gt;* Uber Girlfriend: When venturing out, I'm an excellent TG, I can be the clubbing -girlfriend of your dreams. 
&lt;br/&gt;* Goldmine: As I will be under your charge I would also be available to contributing to the household coffers by prostituting my self to homosexuals or men as a transvestite. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please note that while I will welcome the possibility of having this relationship indefinitely, I will never at no point in time wish to assume the role of the dominating man or your protector - you are to be mine. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Which is why this role is ideal for a lesbian couple, as they should be able to draw emotional support from each other and utilize me as a prop. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Which brings me to my final condition - there are no rules! Please don't ask me what I will and will not do or how I feel about something. It doesn't matter, I'm your's do with as you see fit. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Me: I'm a good looking male (not a Man!) in my late 20's I'm 5'8" tall and weigh 155lbs. I'm in need of female companionship / protection. This does not mean that you are obligated to provided my any service other than just being somebody for me to talk to as I perform duties for you. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You: I don't care how old you are, what your race is or how you think you look. Basically I need somebody that looks feminine and is not enormous for me to worship and wait on.&lt;/div&gt;

      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/03f12d19-6803-4614-afff-2a9b602cfd2f</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Si Vous Plaus: In exchange for the grace of your company (no sex or performance on your part). I offer my services has full-time servant, you may consider me at your disposal for: 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;*	Whipping-Bitch: Domination and humiliation/transference bitch - feel free to take your bad day out of me. Beat the crap out of me. 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Maid: housecleaning and maid service: fixing you a drink, lighting your cigarette 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Personal SPA: attendance &amp;amp; rejuvenation doing your nails, shaving/waxing your legs, brushing your hair, massages 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Chef
&lt;br/&gt;*	Computer Engineer: any computer work / web - design that is needed, I'm an IT consultant by trade. 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Handy-Bitch: minor home and automobile repair 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Personal Valet: carry your bags while shopping 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Secretarial: overall clerical support: phones, emails, appointments, bookkeeping 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Uber Girlfriend: When venturing out, I'm an excellent TG, I can be the clubbing -girlfriend of your dreams. 
&lt;br/&gt;*	Goldmine: As I will be under your charge I would also be available to contributing to the household coffers by prostituting my self to homosexuals or men as a transvestite. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Please note that while I will welcome the possibility of having this relationship indefinitely, I will never at no point in time wish to assume the role of the dominating man or your protector - you are to be mine.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Which is why this role is ideal for a lesbian couple, as they should be able to draw emotional support from each other and utilize me as a prop. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Which brings me to my final condition - there are no rules! Please don't ask me what I will and will not do or how I feel about something. It doesn't matter, I'm your's do with as you see fit.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Me: I'm a good looking male (not a Man!) in my late 20's I'm 5'8" tall and  weigh 155lbs. I'm in need of female companionship / protection. This does not mean that you are obligated to provided my any service other than just being somebody for me to talk to as I perform duties for you. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;You: I don't care how old you are, what your race is or how you think you look. Basically I need somebody that looks feminine and is not enormous for me to worship and wait on. 
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Model for me please?</title>
      <link>http://tribes.tribe.net/sfwomensplayparties/thread/e227559d-d80b-4c18-81aa-7445c25955c8</link>
      <description>&lt;div&gt;Will You Model for me PLEASE?!  
&lt;br/&gt;Model for me and the calendar I am working on here in foggy San Francisco.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The calendar is called the Hotties of Harm Reduction. It is a fundraiser for clean needle exchange and HIV reduction strategies here in the city. You can read more about it here: www.hottiesofharmreduction.org/ 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The plan is to have an "army" of folks marching up Castro tomorrow morning at 6am (yes that is in the am but is before the marathon and before Dore Alley!). Folks would be dressed in tighy whiteys, combat boots and aviator sunglasses (we will provide if you don't have said items!). With the people assembled in military formation the Castro theatre marquee in the background will display the message "CLEAN NEEDLES SAVE LIVES". No one will be completely naked. All body shapes are welcome and DESIRED. Electrical tape will be provided to cover exposed bits etc. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I know that this is last minute. I know that this is a risque and strange request. I know it is super early. I know that I am doing this in a non-personal manner. I know all of these things and yet I am asking for your help to make this shot a really amazing message. Please email me and tell me the news - be it yes, no, maybe or you bloody insane lady go back to smoking crack. I am prepared for the inevitable a rejection from you all but maybe one or two of you will surprise and delight me and actually show up. a grrl can dream right? 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Feel free to pass this request on or re-post it elsewhere (just NOT craigslist, i beseech you!) to people you think would be supportive of such a fundraiser. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;thank you for reading this 
&lt;br/&gt;many hugs 
&lt;br/&gt;arielle &lt;/div&gt;

The East bay area Den of iniquity, a home of shdivasbootylicious play parties and home to many of your private kinky pleasures and fun is relocating to Berkeley. This Friday, July 28th is going to be the final bash in the old location. Come out to the Send Off Party where we will put the old to bed in the kinky fashion I know you can, and welcome in the energy of the new. We are counting on all you kinky lotus eaters to come out for this play party bash &amp;amp; fundraiser. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;When This Friday, July 28 
&lt;br/&gt;Beginning @ 8PM until you can't take it anymore. It could be an all nighter but be forewarned anyone who camps out is likely to be recruited to help pack up and move on Saturday! 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Where: Oakland. RSVP for detailed location shdivasevents@aol.com 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;What to Bring: First and foremost your kinky lovely selves. We want this to be a party to remember. Second This is a Fundraiser. We are asking for the standard play party $20 at the door but a Donation of any dollar amount is greatly appreciated. All proceeds will go toward moving and relocation expenses of ThePurpleLotus.
