KinkForAll Comes to San Francisco

I’ve been following the development of KinkForAll for a while and I’ve heard great things about it. It’s an “unconference” that intends to “inspire a creative, interactive and open environment where everyone feels comfortable discussing, learning about, and discovering the intersections of all kinds of sexuality with the rest of life.” Sounds fun, right? It gets even better.

KFA is totally free and it’s crowd-sourced which means that each participant is expected to “give a talk or presentation, help with one, or otherwise contribute in some way.” The idea is that there are no spectators and everyone helps to make it happen. Of course, there are plenty of ways to do that.

To make it even more fun, there’s no pre-planning events. You show up and write your name and topic in an open space on the schedule. Each presentation is strictly limited to 20 minutes, so it’s more like a buffet rather than an entire meal. You can sample lots of different ideas and then seek more information elsewhere.

KinkForAllSanFrancisco takes place on March 21 from 10-5 at the Women’s Building (3543 18^th Street, San Francisco, CA 94110) People are already signing up to help make it happen, so click on the link and check it out. It looks like it’ll be a fun time!

There are also KinkForAll events in the works for Boston, Washington DC, and New York. And there’s a press release about the SF event here.
