The intersection of hypnokink and plural identities has been a topic of increasing discussion in the ethical hypnokink community over the last year. In this panel, we bring together multiple plural hypnokinksters and partners of plural hypnokinksters to provide education and advocacy on this important topic.
Presenters include:
* {Sunshine, Pelia} and their partner Alienor
* {Camden, Dawn, Cammie, et al} and their partner Daja
* The Sylvan System
* The HomeCrystal System {Kitty Sylvie, et al}
* Puppet (Moderating)
* Additional presenters as we are able to attract interest
Topics for this class include:
1. Defining plurality in both traumatogenic and non-traumatogenic systems.
2. Consent and negotiation for ethical hypnokink involving plurals
3. Necessary groundwork and education for singlet partners interested in engaging with plurals.
4. Discussion of techniques for navigating plurality-specific challenges and harnessing opportunities in hypnotic relationships and play.
5. Working with the added trauma considerations involved in some plural systems.
6. Intrasystem hypnokink -- hypnokink applied between multiple system members in a plural system.
7. Aftercare for plural systems
8. Handling issues with uninterested and non-cooperative system members
9. The intersection of plurality and disability/other neuroatypicality
10. Audience Q&A
We want to make this a hybrid class with our moderator, Puppet, acting as a discussion bridge for online attendees. The class is for a broad audience -- plurals, their partners, and folks curious and new to the concepts are all welcome and will find content to suit their needs.
