BDSM and the Law
with Nyx

For folks curious about the legality of kink and BDSM in the U.S., research can be daunting and lead to a lot of dead ends and confusing language. In this presentation, Nyx will provide some clarity while going over a few of the laws in Washington, as well as elsewhere in the country. We will talk about relevant landmark cases that have shaped how courts view BDSM, for better and for worse. Nyx will also talk about organizations like the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom and how you can further educate yourself and your kinky loved ones.

About the Educator:

Nyx (she/her) is a lesbian impact top and lover of petplay and bare butts–especially at the same time! She became active in her local kink scene in 2010 and has been reading, studying, playing, and/or ranting about it ever since. Nyx began her work at the Tool Shed in 2016 in Milwaukee, WI where she shares their mission of providing medically accurate and socially current information on topics of sex and gender in a non-judgmental atmosphere to anyone who visits the store. She has presented at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, Antioch College in Seattle, and most recently, at Pan Eros Foundation's Fetish Finishing Academy.
