SUMMARY:BR Gateway - May 2025
DESCRIPTION:Black Rose (BR) Gateway is a great way to get a lot of information about the local kink community before you commit any unintentional faux pax because everyone (except you) knew about the community and social expectations. \nWe cover topics ranging from from Consent to Privacy\, Negotiations to Aftercare\, and ensure that everyone is aware of our aggressive stand against certain types of behaviors. You can learn more about what you can expect from BR Gateway by reading: \n\n\n\n\n\nThinking about attending Black Rose Gateway (overview of the program)\nGateway Attendee FAQ\n\n\n\n\n\nBR Gateway and Dungeon 101 work together like a lecture/lab combination class; you can get a lot from attending either one\, but you can get a lot more by attending both. \nGateway is in person at The Crucible.  \n\nBR Gateway entry is only available for purchase at the door; Dungeon 101 tickets are the same. You cannot purchase D101 entry at BR Gateway. \nASL Interpreters are available upon request to accessibility@br.org.

SUMMARY:Blow Jobs 101 with MoProblems
DESCRIPTION:Class Description\nFrom anniversary presents to strangers in airport bathrooms\, Blowjobs are a ubiquitous part of our sexual culture\, and frankly can be fun to give and receive\, but most of us never get any instruction on how to best suck dick\, or what to do with our hands.This class is intended to review the basics of providing or receiving fellatio\, and create a space for the sharing of best practices on how to pleasure partners with penises. \nWe’ll go over the art of giving a blowjob\, starting before anything is ever in a mouth to how to know if you’ve finished. As penis are as diverse as those of us who have them\, we’ll go over factors that can impact pleasure for both giver and receiver\, including basic anatomy of a penis. We’ll also go over communication before during and after a blowjob so you can continue to improve your skills as an oral top or bottom. \nNo supplies are needed for this class\, but feel free to bring your favorite phallus or phallic objects to practice on. This is not a deepthroating class\, so no need to break out the bananas or eggplants\, though they’re always welcome. \nWhether you’re a cocksucker extraordinaire or have just recently been a little curious about penises\, this class aims to provide you with something new. All skill levels\, experiences\, and anatomies are welcome. \nPresenter Bio\nMo or @MoProblems (any/all) is a queer genderfluid kinkster entering a second year in the local DC scene.
