Content warning for discussion of: manipulation tactics, condom use, sex, abuse of authority, power dynamics and community leaders. Please take care of yourself if you choose to watch this video. Today's discussion revolves around a particular happening on Fetlife. Namely, there was a group of 2, then 3 then 4 (maybe more) people who can forward to share their experiences about a particular individual they had all interacted with. Normally, stories of abuse in the world of kink revolve around issues in a scene: ignored safewords for example. This went beyond that, into the nature of the relationships themselves. But today I want to talk not just about this persons actions, or what they did. But the reaction our community had, the excuses, the minimization. And what I think of these reactions, and how we can do better to keep people safe. FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
