BDSM SAFETY: FROM TOP TO BOTTOM

THE EXILES NEW MEMBER ORIENTATION – SAN FRANCISCO EVENT

Friday, October 2 2009, 7:30-9:30 p.m.

Femina Potens, 2199 Market Street, San Francisco.

Please contact orientationofficer at theexiles dot org with any questions.

Want to know more about kinky sex? Interested in experimenting with
BDSM and need some basic safety tips? Come to the Exiles' New Member
Orientation on Friday, October 2nd.

The Exiles is the SF Bay Area's premiere women's BDSM organization.
We are open to all who are 18+, who don't ID as male, and who have an
interest in risk-aware BDSM between women. Attending the Orientation is
a requirement for Exiles Membership.

Our main focus is education and safety, so if you just want some
good information and aren't interested in joining the Exiles, that's
okay. In the Orientation, we'll cover the basics of several different
kinds of BDSM play. While this by no means will make you a BDSM expert,
we want to emphasize that keeping you safe - and keeping those you play
with safe - is an important goal of the Exiles.

We start on time and do not admit latecomers, so please plan
accordingly. The orientation costs $10.00 to help with the rental cost
for the room (no one turned away for lack of funds). In exchange, we'll
give you a free pass to an Exiles monthly program. To make things
faster and easier on everyone, bring small bills if you can. You must
bring a legal picture ID with you, for age verification.

You don't have to be a member to attend our monthly educational
program meetings, held every 3rd Friday* at the Women's Building in San
Francisco. Come to learn, cruise, and have fun. To find out more about
our organization, our BDSM Safety Essentials: from Top to Bottom
orientation, and to get the scoop on our upcoming programs, please
visit our website: theexiles.org

Femina Potens is wheelchair accessible.

If ASL interpretation is needed, please notify orientationofficer at theexiles dot org at least one week before the event.
