Come join our Board Member, Kelly, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Pacific Time. Please arrive promptly. The virtual doors will close at 10 minutes past the scheduled start time. If you will need to arrive late, contact us in advance at info@thecspc.org. Depending on the circumstances we might be able to accommodate you.
The CSPC’s Power Dynamics Discussion Group allows participants to learn about authority transfer relationships in more general terms through discussion in a safe, judgement-free environment.
Authority transfer relationships are also referred to as power exchange or the umbrella term Dominance and submission (the DS in BDSM). In these relationships, one person generally offers authority over themselves to another in a multitude of ways for a specified period ranging from minutes, hours, or a lifetime.
We will explore the factors relating to a wide variety of relationships, such as the following:
Top/bottom
Dominant/submissive
Master/slave
Owner/property
Daddy/boy or girl
Mommy/boy or girl
Handler/pet
Whether you are experienced or just starting out, please bring your questions and the expertise created by your experience. Drop in for one meeting or become a regular. We look forward to sharing space with you.

Kelly has been a part of a kink community since 2000, migrating slowly from Southern California to the Bay Area and Southern Oregon before settling in Seattle in 2011. Having occupied both sides of the slash in a multitude of power authority relationships, she comes with a lot of expertise on herself and a few opinions about just about everything.
