NORMS
-
All interests, curiosities, kinks and pleasures are all welcome in our space. We aren’t going to judge or shame anyone for their pleasures, curiosities, kinks or interests.
-
Move from a space of compassion and understanding. Treat other bees how they want to bee treated. All bees of all backgrounds and identities are welcome and cared for in our space.
-
Ask questions. All your questions! We’ll have a few different ways for bees to ask questions such as privately, during workshops, and anonymously.
-
Listen with an open mind and open heart. We can hear one another even if we recognize our own stories, perspectives and/or values may differ.
-
During conversations around pleasure and intimacy, bees might share about their personal experiences. We want stories to stay in our space unless consent is given for otherwise. But, if bees learn something new or interesting from the lesson, they can appropriately share that information outside of our space.

Item description
-
We all have different relationships and comfort levels when discussing pleasure and intimacy. Do what you need to do to take care of yourselves during our time together. Show up as you need. If you need support at one point, please reach out to a Shades Member.
