Saturday November 2, 2013 "Self-ish Submission: Why your Needs Should Be Nourished
As submissives and slaves, we often approach our relationships from the viewpoint that the ultimate goal is to meet the needs of our partners, and in that way, have our own needs met. While this seems a lofty goal, fully abandoning one's own needs and wants may not bring the blissful surrender you seek. Sometimes? We need more. Feedback, affection, focus, attention. In power exchange relationships (Hey, they're called "exchange" for a reason!) there needs to be an ebb and flow, a give and take that fulfills all parties involved. Knowing what you need, what it takes to achieve your needs, and expressing them clearly can help you be present and fulfilled in your relationships.
We will discuss ways to handle questions such as determining:
> How do I know what I want?
> What would happen if I have my needs met?
> What would happen if I do not have my needs met?
> When does serving another become compromising myself?
> How do I know when I've gone too far?
This discussion will revolve around assessing, categorizing prioritizing and supporting your needs and your wants, and discovering what you are or are not willing to do to have these met.

Sunday November 3rd: "For Today or Forever: Negotiating Power Exchange Relationships"
The minutiae of Dominant/Submissive relationships can be glorious, sublime and difficult. We all have issues to navigate, and these issues can color our power exchanges. Submission does not have to cripple your ability to have your needs met. Dominance does not have to transform you into an emotionless juggernaut. The ability to treat people with respect and empathy for their own communicative style is an invaluable asset.
Join Mollena & J.P. Robichaud, the most excellent stars of the podcast "Conversations with The Perverted Negress" as they pull apart the process of discovering, affirming and pursuing a path of power. These sapiosexual practitioners, students and hardcore thinkers will their their thoughts and experiences from the viewpoint of a long-term practitioner of the path of submission, slavery and service and the contrasting viewpoint of an introspective dominant introvert with an ongoing interest in logical and effective systems of control.
From a simple, one-off scene to full-time power-imbalanced lifestyles, we will investigate the role of power relationships,the realities of dominance and submission, the nuances of negotiation, and why the hell we go through all of this trouble in the first damn place.
Please bring your own questions and experiences to share!
THERE WILL BE AUDIO RECORDING, BUT REST ASSURED PARTICIPANTS ANONYMITY WILL BE STRICTLY PROTECTED!
