Helsinki Shibari

Helsinki Shibari events are safer spaces

• This is a safer space for all genders, sexualities, backgrounds, bodies, abilities and switching. Don’t assume others’ identity or history. Racist, sexist, homophobic or other oppressive behavior is not ok.

• Respect others’ intimacy, personal space, boundaries, and closets. Don’t talk about who you saw doing what at the event.

• Ask before touching people or their things.

• Give people space when they are negotiating, playing, and doing aftercare, even if they are your best friends.

• No genital play, crotch rope is ok.

• Photography is not allowed except on photo theme nights. Anyone has the right to voice their disagreement with taking photos in a space they are in and require not to be on any photos, and this will be respected.

• Don’t drink (or use drugs) and tie.

• If something doesn’t feel right, please speak up. If you see something that looks dangerous, contact a staff member.

• Share knowledge and get inspired!
