You’ve been to orientation, maybe a couple of parties, but now what? Or maybe you’ve been a member for years and want an opportunity to get more connected with the community–especially after so much time in COVID lockdown!
Come feel welcome in the (virtual) open arms of our friendly hosts Tristan and Sam for an online discussion about finding your way in the CSPC and sex positive community the first Monday after Fresh Meet from 7 to 9 p.m. Like all our discussion groups, participation is free for members! Register here to join us for the very first meeting on September 5 (Labor Day). The Zoom link will be emailed to you upon registration.
Moving deeper into the sex positive community can be exciting, overwhelming, or even scary - but you don’t have to do it alone! finding YOUR way is a safe place to discuss and process our experiences at CSPC parties and other events, as well as to connect with others who are actively on a similar journey of sexual and sensual exploration. The goal of this group is to honor the uniqueness of each individual’s path and to provide support and encouragement as you are finding YOUR way into the community.
Each session will begin with a review of our group agreements and the CSPC Online Group rules, followed by the hosts or a guest speaker sharing an experience with the group that surprised them or provided a learning moment. Then we will open the floor for discussion and sharing of attendees' experiences from parties where they learned something new about the community or themselves.
After a short break, we will open the floor for questions about sex positivity in general, about specific interests and kinks, about opportunities for greater engagement with the community, and about the process of developing relationships inside the community. Guided by the hosts, the group will discuss our diverse experiences and perspectives and share related resources. In the case of questions that require additional information or research, the hosts of this peer-led group will update the group later in the week with answers and additional resources.
Participants are encouraged to submit questions ahead of time via the finding YOUR way Discord channel, or by emailing findingyourway@thecspc.org.
Discussion of sexual experiences is encouraged, so please be prepared to hear content of explicit nature being discussed. An opportunity to discuss aftercare following the discussion group will also be provided.
