The Leather Party presents a queer-centered, fully vetted play party for the PNW leather community.  The Leather Party is providing a queer space that centers womxn, gender nonbinary/agender/bi-gender people, two-spirit people, and transgender men.  For our first party, we have elected this to be a cis male free party.  The reason for this is not for exclusion or punishment of all due to the behaviors of the few, but to provide an event that is not often available.  Many of our experiences have been negatively impacted by cis men in play spaces and we want to provide the opportunity for that not to be a concern for our guests.

Doghouse will be hosting Beginning American Sign Language (ASL) classes with VisuallySpeaking, a 6-week corse starting October 15.  Do you know someone who is Deaf and would like to communicate with them?  Have you always wanted to learn Sign Language?  Now is your chance!  This ASL class is for people with no prior experience using sign language.  The course will cover American Sign Language basics: finger-spelling the alphabet, asking questions, numbers, relationships, time, and more.  American Sign Language (ASL) is an invaluable skill for everyone and fun to learn.  Learning to sign is a great way to teach diversity awareness, cultural perspectives, and how to communicate when meeting a Deaf person.  A basic grasp of ASL enhances your ability to communicate with Deaf in your community.  It’s also a marketable professional skill that can translate into public service jobs.  In just 6 weeks, your fingers will be flying!  All genders are welcome to this class.  The last class will be a social mixer with members of Deaf community.  Check out their web site to register: https://www.visuallyspeaking.info/beginning-asl-adults-only/.

https://www.facebook.com/events/542917399582050/

Presented by Max.  This is a highly interactive event, mostly comprised of demos on attendee volunteers.  It provides a safe and informal space to observe, experience, learn, and discuss a number of kink activities.  After a brief introduction covering scene dynamics, negotiation and safety, volunteers have opportunities to bottom to Max for demos which may include: 
• Rope bondage
• Electrical toys — violet wands, TENS/ErosTek, stun guns and zappers
• Needles / temporary piercing
• Pressure points
• Floggers
• Singletail whips
• Canes
• D/S and service dynamics
• Leather & metal bondage (including hoods)
• Cages
• Erotic hypnosis
Each demo will include some time for a debrief and Q&A.  This is a great workshop for anyone curious about kink, as it’s an unusual opportunity to see many different types of play up close and personal.  It’s also valuable for more experienced kinksters who would like to see a professional demonstration.  And it’s a great opportunity to meet Max and to do a demo scene with him, of course.  This workshop assumes no previous experience, and is appropriate for all genders and orientations.  You can bring a partner or a group of friends, but coming alone is completely comfortable and appropriate.  If you miss this workshop or want a deeper experience, Max also offers private instruction for bondage and many other BDSM techniques.  Class size is limited and preregistration is required.

Info: https://www.pan-eros.org/event/bondage-for-sex-2/?instance_id=TBD

Sex is what first drew many of us to bondage, and combining sex with bondage is still one of our favorite things.  All too often, though, erotic bondage ends up being awkward and frustrating.  This class will teach you bondage that immobilizes your partner while leaving them exposed and accessible.  We’ll begin with a set of ties and techniques for immobilizing every part of your partner’s body.  These building blocks can be combined in a wide variety of ways to hold your partner still in whatever position works best for your favorite mischief.  Different types of mischief call for different positions, so we’ll take an in depth look at four of our favorite sex positions, each of which is adaptable to a wide range of activities and body types.  No matter what your genders or what kind of sex you and your partner prefer, you’ll learn practical skills that will improve your sex life as well as making you a better and more effective rigger.

This is an intermediate level class.  You should be familiar with basic kink concepts and should be able to tie a single column tie.  You will need to bring your own rope to this class.  We recommend at least two 10-15′ lengths and at least one 20-30′ length.  You can attend on your own, but it’s more fun if you bring a partner.  All sexes, genders, ethnicities, sexual orientations, relationship orientations welcome and celebrated.

Doghouse will be hosting Beginning American Sign Language (ASL) classes with VisuallySpeaking, a 6-week corse starting October 15.  Do you know someone who is Deaf and would like to communicate with them?  Have you always wanted to learn Sign Language?  Now is your chance!  This ASL class is for people with no prior experience using sign language.  The course will cover American Sign Language basics: finger-spelling the alphabet, asking questions, numbers, relationships, time, and more.  American Sign Language (ASL) is an invaluable skill for everyone and fun to learn.  Learning to sign is a great way to teach diversity awareness, cultural perspectives, and how to communicate when meeting a Deaf person.  A basic grasp of ASL enhances your ability to communicate with Deaf in your community.  It’s also a marketable professional skill that can translate into public service jobs.  In just 6 weeks, your fingers will be flying!  All genders are welcome to this class.  The last class will be a social mixer with members of Deaf community.  Check out their web site to register: https://www.visuallyspeaking.info/beginning-asl-adults-only/.

The Tacoma Newcomers Munch is hosted by the SSLA once a month on the first Saturday of every month.  It is open to all adults (18+ yrs) in a relaxed dining atmosphere.  Our topics are geared toward beginners to the kink & BDSM scene and/or for people who are new to the South Sound community.  We typically cover a cycle of approximately 10-12 rotating topics presented by respected subject matter experts in our local community.  Think of this munch as the one where we discuss the how or what of the things that we do.  While some of our topics come back around annually, we are always open to ideas and new guest speakers so if you have a concern, guest speaker, or topic idea please contact the munch facilitator/host, LeatherWolfe, privately or within the Tacoma Newbie Group for consideration.

Doghouse will be hosting Beginning American Sign Language (ASL) classes with VisuallySpeaking, a 6-week corse starting October 15.  Do you know someone who is Deaf and would like to communicate with them?  Have you always wanted to learn Sign Language?  Now is your chance!  This ASL class is for people with no prior experience using sign language.  The course will cover American Sign Language basics: finger-spelling the alphabet, asking questions, numbers, relationships, time, and more.  American Sign Language (ASL) is an invaluable skill for everyone and fun to learn.  Learning to sign is a great way to teach diversity awareness, cultural perspectives, and how to communicate when meeting a Deaf person.  A basic grasp of ASL enhances your ability to communicate with Deaf in your community.  It’s also a marketable professional skill that can translate into public service jobs.  In just 6 weeks, your fingers will be flying!  All genders are welcome to this class.  The last class will be a social mixer with members of Deaf community.  Check out their web site to register: https://www.visuallyspeaking.info/beginning-asl-adults-only/.

This munch is for anyone who identifies as queer and their partners.  By queer, we mean gay men, lesbians, fags, dykes, bisexuals, pansexuals, and polysexuals along with transfolk, those who are genderqueer, gender flexible, gender fluid, and gender fuckers.  If the word queer feels like home for part of you or all of you, you are welcome.  And when we say “partner” , we mean everything from play partners to life partners.  The Portland Queer Munch will happen every month on the first or second Thursday (depending on scheduling options).

The space is wheelchair accessible and the menu has lots of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options (and all clearly labeled!).  There is plenty of free street parking and the 72 bus will drop you off within a block of The Radio Room.  The munch will meet on the main floor instead of in the lounge areas so that we won’t be limited to 21+.  This does mean that we can’t be too demonstrative about our kink so as not to scare off their other patrons, but the venue is completely aware of what our group is about and is happy to have us there!  Please buy something to support the venue so that they’ll keep having us back.  They do know that not everyone will be ordering food/eating full meals, but please do get a drink or a snack.  Bottomless coffee is $2, and an order of fries is $3, to give you an idea of the prices.

Leather Reign is a Leather/BDSM/Kink conference in the Seattle area focused on "making the most of our kink."  Seattle area is very well covered when it comes to the introductory “how-to” topics.  Leather Reign is intended to supplement these topics with three core areas:
• Why we do what we do, what is in it for us? — This may involve some technique, but the focus will be on why it is done instead of how.
• Dominance and submission/Mastery and slavery/service topics — These topics will include subjects such as the way relationships are structured, the calling to a BDSM role, the formalities of service etc
• How-to at the 201 level and above — These will include different forms of edge play, advanced techniques, or creative forms of BDSM.
Leather Reign invites both a) new speakers with new perspectives and b) favored speakers from past conferences, offering new ideas, experienced perspectives, and interesting discussions.  We provide an environment that facilitates personal growth for everyone as well as developing the community as a whole.  Come join us!

Our weekend is all about providing an opportunity for rubberists of all ages, orientations, gender expressions, nationalities, income and experience levels to get together, explore new adventures and most of all — to have fun.  Our goal is to create opportunities for you to meet new people at multiple points during the weekend.  We guarantee that you will meet someone new at MIR.  It’s inevitable!  Our past titleholders and contestants have each made their contribution to the growth of the rubber community in their won unique ways.  Many have hosted events in their own community. Others have created their own local or regional clubs, and several have started their own feeder contests to help support Mr. International Rubber.  Over the many years that Mr. International Rubber has existed, we have seen a significant growth in the rubber community and clubs that support the rubber community.  The majority of those rubber specific clubs have a direct connection to the Mr. International Rubber contest and organization in some direct way.

Cuff Complex (1533 13th Ave., Seattle), 7:00–10:00 pm

Info: https://www.facebook.com/events/TBD/

This woman-centric event puts queer leather women to the front!  Women need a place that can be uplifting and empowering to them and now we have it!  If you are a queer woman and enjoy spending time with other queer women, you and your queer guests are welcome.  Invited guests do not need to identify as women but must attend with women.  Many of us want a women’s space that simultaneously is for us while allowing space for those we care about.  Above all else, this is a space for and by queer women.  While that includes allowing space for the partners and close friends of women, please be respectful of the women centric nature of the space.  While this event can run past 11:00 pm, the atmosphere can switch on weekends and we may not be able to maintain a woman centric space later in the evening.  As this monthly event grows, we will have the opportunity to provide space for queer women’s organizations and events to host each month’s social, increasing awareness of events and spaces that might be unknown but of interest to leather women while providing opportunities to expand, fundraise, and have fun!  If you are interested in hosting a monthly social and are a club, organization, or event focused on women in the LGBTQ+ and leather communities, please reach out!  We would love to share space with you!

The Olympians are a social club for gay (and straight but not narrow) men who enjoy the freedom which comes with nudity.  The group gets together in whole or in part on a monthly basis.  We call these “events”.  They are not necessarily “parties” but potluck functions, which consist of a meal and dessert, followed with social interaction and “other” forms of contact, including physical.  These events are usually hosted in the homes of Olympians’ members, but a few times a year held in a rented space, with complete respect to be given to the owner’s property at all times.  We always want the events to be a pleasant experience, as sharing the company of several other nude men can be.   Pool and outdoor patio.

Doghouse will be hosting Beginning American Sign Language (ASL) classes with VisuallySpeaking, a 6-week corse starting October 15.  Do you know someone who is Deaf and would like to communicate with them?  Have you always wanted to learn Sign Language?  Now is your chance!  This ASL class is for people with no prior experience using sign language.  The course will cover American Sign Language basics: finger-spelling the alphabet, asking questions, numbers, relationships, time, and more.  American Sign Language (ASL) is an invaluable skill for everyone and fun to learn.  Learning to sign is a great way to teach diversity awareness, cultural perspectives, and how to communicate when meeting a Deaf person.  A basic grasp of ASL enhances your ability to communicate with Deaf in your community.  It’s also a marketable professional skill that can translate into public service jobs.  In just 6 weeks, your fingers will be flying!  All genders are welcome to this class.  The last class will be a social mixer with members of Deaf community.  Check out their web site to register: https://www.visuallyspeaking.info/beginning-asl-adults-only/.

Men Tying Men is a rope bondage enthusiast group for men and for people with lived experience as men.  Its aim is to be an excellent place for us to share bondage techniques and resources and to bring our latest projects for feedback and troubleshooting.  Not a play party (clothes are required), but a chance to talk bondage, to practice bondage, to learn and teach bondage and to network with other bondage obsessives.  Men of all experience levels are welcome — including those with zero practical experience.  The facilitators will always be available to answer questions and to gently guide the conversation.  Single men, couples, and groups are welcome.  We will always try to make sure that everyone who wants to join in at practice times will have that opportunity.  Our venue is Gallery Erato. It has great wrestling mats for our floor work, places to sit during our discussions and hard points for suspension practice.  It’s perfect for what we need.

Men Tying Men meets on the 3rd Wednesday of the 2nd month of each quarter: February 20, May 15, August 21, and November 20 in 2019.

Presented by Max.  This is a highly interactive event, mostly comprised of demos on attendee volunteers.  It provides a safe and informal space to observe, experience, learn, and discuss a number of kink activities.  After a brief introduction covering scene dynamics, negotiation and safety, volunteers have opportunities to bottom to Max for demos which may include: 
• Rope bondage
• Electrical toys — violet wands, TENS/ErosTek, stun guns and zappers
• Needles / temporary piercing
• Pressure points
• Floggers
• Singletail whips
• Canes
• D/S and service dynamics
• Leather & metal bondage (including hoods)
• Cages
• Erotic hypnosis
Each demo will include some time for a debrief and Q&A.  This is a great workshop for anyone curious about kink, as it’s an unusual opportunity to see many different types of play up close and personal.  It’s also valuable for more experienced kinksters who would like to see a professional demonstration.  And it’s a great opportunity to meet Max and to do a demo scene with him, of course.  This workshop assumes no previous experience, and is appropriate for all genders and orientations.  You can bring a partner or a group of friends, but coming alone is completely comfortable and appropriate.  If you miss this workshop or want a deeper experience, Max also offers private instruction for bondage and many other BDSM techniques.  Class size is limited and preregistration is required.
