screwup: BDSM for trans people, genderqueers and their friends, presents...&#xD;
&#xD;
Kinky crafts!&#xD;
&#xD;
Friday, December 14, 2007 from 7:00 to 9:30 PM&#xD;
New College of California in San Francisco, Room 22 (2nd Floor), 766 Valencia Street (near 18th Street), San Francisco&#xD;
&#xD;
with Micah Riot (casually) and anyone else who wants to show their artsy skills&#xD;
&#xD;
This will be a laid back night to skillshare, talk, laugh, exchange ideas and get to know each other even better.&#xD;
&#xD;
Micah Riot is going to show how to make duct tape floggers, so bring duct tape. There are not very many things out there that one could not make out of duct tape. Always a good thing to have on hand to waste a couple of hours. He may also show how to make TRANNY DOLLS and fun sensation toys out of Fimo clay. Since upon completion of their molding they have to be burned to get hard and more permanent, bring a container for the Fimo parts to get home safe to your oven.&#xD;
&#xD;
Here is a list of things you can bring that may be fun to play with:&#xD;
- Duct tape&#xD;
- Fimo clay&#xD;
- Scissors&#xD;
- Packing tape&#xD;
- Scraps of cloth&#xD;
- Needles and thread&#xD;
- Stuffing/cotton balls from a dollar store&#xD;
- Magazines&#xD;
- Adhesives&#xD;
- Markers&#xD;
- Cloth dye markers&#xD;
- Your old estrogen and testosterone vials (once I have enough I will make an art piece out of mine)&#xD;
&#xD;
...or anything else that you can think you may be able to use creatively and with kink on your mind.&#xD;
&#xD;
Some supplies will be brought. If you want something specific and you can't afford it, ask us, we may be able to get some of it with the screwup fund money.&#xD;
&#xD;
Come again, or for the first time. Enjoy. Participate. Hope to see you there!&#xD;
&#xD;
Screwup is for trannies, genderqueers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and will be held in Room 22 at the New College of California. Folks sometimes go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared...&#xD;
&#xD;
$0-5 donation will be accepted to cover the cost of supplies and flyers. No one turned away. The New College of California is wheelchair accessible and has gender-neutral bathrooms!&#xD;
&#xD;
Spread the word by downloading, printing, and distributing flyers.&#xD;
&#xD;
Please contact screwup@screwup.info if you'd like us to arrange for an ASL interpreter, to get involved, make suggestions or with any other requests.&#xD;
Directions to the New College of California&#xD;
&#xD;

GenderQueer Bondage: Rope for People “Between” !&#xD;
&#xD;
by Lee “Bridgett” Harrington&#xD;
&#xD;
Sunday, February 25, 2007, from 7:00 to 9:30 PM&#xD;
Femina Potens, 465 South Van Ness Avenue (at 16th Street), San Francisco&#xD;
&#xD;
Have you ever struggled with the "how" of putting a crotch rope on a woman with a little something extra? Tried tying up a transman who wanted chest bondage that didn’t make him look like a girl? Perhaps you just want to explore some hot ways to tie up your lovers to make them feel androgynous and exposed? Then this class is for you. We’ll be exploring crotch ropes and strap-on harnesses, alternative forms of chest and torso bondage (to emphasize and deemphasize curves), and looking at a few other ties that can make your partner feel emphasized into whatever gender or otherness we see ourselves as. Bring two or more pieces of rope, 25-30 feet in length, for hands-on fun and exploration in this class for “the rest of us”&#xD;
&#xD;
Lee “Bridgett” Harrington is an eclectic performance artist, artist, model, spiritual and erotic educator, gender radical and author of "Shibari You Can Use: Japanese Rope Bondage and Erotic Macramé".

Ze has been an active part of the international kink and sex positive communities for over 11 years, and hir stories make people laugh while showing you that eroticism can be as serious, sexy, or silly as you make it. Bridgett's writings and photography have appeared in numerous anthologies including "Dark Moon Rising: Pagan BDSM and the Ordeal Path", and hir image has been seen everywhere from PlayBoy TV to the pages of Skin Two Magazine.&#xD;

&#xD;
A free-for-all interactive discussion on how perverts pervert the everyday:&#xD;
&#xD;
1) When you are preparing an evening meal at home, are you cooking up more than food? Are you trying to figure out how that battery operated milk-foamer could be used outside of the coffee cup?&#xD;
2) Do you identify as kink whether or not you’re in a scene? How does that present itself in the everyday?&#xD;
3) Do your commonplace interactions with the larger world feed your kink? Does you kink feed the larger world?&#xD;
4) How do you find/incorporate your kink in everyday activities (and the other way around)?&#xD;
&#xD;
If any of these questions (plus many more) strikes your fancy, come on and join us for a fun-loving interactive get-together. There will be games :) Please bring one or more common everyday seemingly innocent items with you!&#xD;
&#xD;
screwup is for trannies, genderqueers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and orientations and will be held in Room 22 at the New College of California. Folks almost always go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared... Everyone is welcome for the socializing and food parts, too!&#xD;

Silly Perversions: Wacky scenes and other ways to incorporate humor in your kink.&#xD;
&#xD;

New College of California in San Francisco, Room 22 (2nd Floor)&#xD;
766 Valencia Street (near 18th Street), San Francisco&#xD;
&#xD;
Laughter is something that is not heard very often in dungeons and play spaces. There are some kinksters for whom a good case of the sillies has made their most memorable scenes. Age play, sploshing and clown scenes are but three of the many aspects of play where humor can be used to great effect.&#xD;
&#xD;
Please join us for an evening of discussion, exploration and idea sharing about how to bring humor into your kink-o-sphere. Participants are encouraged to bring memories of and ideas for silly scenes, pictures of past silly scenes (if you have consent of all people in the photos to share them with the group and you were one of the participants), and small props for idea sharing.&#xD;
&#xD;
This discussion will be moderated by Phoebe. Phoebe enjoys instigating laughter with her play. She will be bringing stories from past scenes and some pictures to share.&#xD;
&#xD;

&#xD;
Bequi and Jen are hosting a discussion on BDSM with disabilities. We will be talking about ways to modify, or rethink play to work with disabled bodies using body positioning and restraints, toys, communication, and more. We will discuss and/or demonstrate ways to play from top or bottom without injuring ourselves in the process.&#xD;
&#xD;
Come ready to share your experiences and learn from the experiences of others. Let's try to answer from our own experiences all those embarassing questions we’ve been afraid to ask about playing with a person with a disability. This will be a great discussion for anyone who has an injury or disability, who plays with someone who does, or who simply wants to learn more about disability in the kink community.&#xD;
&#xD;
screwup is for trannies, genderqueers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and will be held in Room 22 at the New College of California. Folks sometimes go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared...&#xD;

Clips, Clamps, Clothespins, and Zippers! with -robin&#xD;

&#xD;
-robin says:&#xD;
Some of my favorite things are clamps, clips, zippers and especially clothespins. The wide variety of sensations and decorative activities that are possible make them lots of fun. They are also something anyone can play with, from the complete novice to the long time very experienced player. They're also a very cheap DIY toy that can give hours of fun! &#xD;
&#xD;
I will be showing a variety of clips, talk about where they can best be found or purchased, and demonstating their use on a wide variety of body parts, including genitals. I will also display the construction of a zipper or two and there will be some equipment available for people to try out some of the activities for themselves. I will talk about modifying clothespins to make them more or less evil and decorating them to make your sweet canvas look more lovely or more scary. I may want volunteers from the audience and there will be a chance for folks to experience some of this for themselves if they wish, so please wear something that will allow access to at least some flesh, arms and legs are fine if yer shy.&#xD;
&#xD;
Clips, etc, can also be used for predicament situations and I will explain a few ways and hope that this evening will be a chance for attendees to also share their own decorative or sadistic ways they like to use these fun and versatile toys. Please bring whatever you have. &#xD;

Hypnosis, NLP, Mind Control, and working a room!&#xD;
&#xD;
by Tala Brandeis&#xD;
&#xD;
Friday,April 14, 2006 from 7:00 to 9:30 PM&#xD;
New College of California in San Francisco, Room 22 (2nd Floor), 766 Valencia Street (near 18th Street), San Francisco&#xD;
&#xD;
So, you always wanted to control others actions and behaviours, especially in scene and/or during a great flogging... Now you can... if you nose what I mean, really mean... or not. It's interesting and delightful just what you can achieve during a good mind fuck as well as during a fabulous negotiation, but you knew that, didn't you...&#xD;
&#xD;
Tala Brandeis will be presenting a workshop on Hypnosis, NLP, Mind Control, and working a room. Basically how to get others to do what they really want to do anyway by understanding and knowing at an unconscius level if/when/how they will actualize the behavior you are after.&#xD;
&#xD;
We'll look at eye-accessing ques and other subliminal behavior as confirmation indicators of conversational postulates. The mind can be viewed as a programming system which works at the digitala and macro levels simultaneously.&#xD;
&#xD;
We'll discover which representational systems are dominant in which people and how they can be identified with precision and what can be done to manipulate those systems for the benefit of the bottom and/or the top.&#xD;
&#xD;
Humans manipulate their environments including the consciousness of others and themselves. We'll discuss issues of identifying, maintaining, and developing an healthy ecology of mind-body awareness and expectation of improvement if you really want to. See hear, this is important and necessary information even, or especially, when it brings a whiff of quiff to your attention. So to speak...&#xD;
&#xD;
We'll discuss and demonstrate the implementation of "demon" programs for use in particular states and for specific purposes. (Call them goddess, god or angel/angle programs if that makes you more comfortable. Ya know, get in touch with your higher power... literally)&#xD;
&#xD;
Tala has been a working certified master and clinical hypnotherapist since the late eighties and has been trained and certified in NLP and DHE which she incorporated into her practice as a clinical hypnotherapist and generator of change. Tala has worked with Richard Bandler&#xD;
and other notables in the NLP/Hypnosis community and considers herself much more the hypnotist than the "programmer." She prefers the Eriksonian/Bateson/Grinder model above the NLP canon. All this will be discussed in greater depth during the presentation which she guarantees will have an impact on all the participants...&#xD;
&#xD;
screwup is for trannies, genderqueers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and will be held in Room 22 at the New College of California. Folks sometimes go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared...&#xD;

Radical love workshop! &#xD;
&#xD;
by Wendy-O Matik&#xD;
&#xD;
Friday, October 14, 2005 from 7:00 to 9:30 PM&#xD;
New College of California in San Francisco, Room 22 (2nd Floor), 777 Valencia Street (near 18th Street), San Francisco&#xD;
&#xD;
At a time when our nation is determined to keep us on the warpath what better time to raise or voices against intolerance, hatred and violence? At a time when our government propels us into a new dark age of fascism, what better time to talk about radical love, or the right to love who we want, who we want and as many as we want? Loving openly and freely in these times, weather you are straight or queer is a brave political act. We have been conditioned by outdated social norms that limit our perceptions and shackle us to unhealthy cycles of dissatisfying relationships. Yet we also live in a time when we can choose our gender and redefine our sexual identities. Don't we then have the right to decide what kind of relationship best suits our lifestyle? Declare yourself a revolutionary of the heart. Find out how you can expand your potential to love, transform your lifestyle and together we can threaten the social forces of patriarchy!&#xD;
&#xD;
screwup is for trannies, genderqueers, and our friends. This event is open to all genders and will be held in Room 22 at the New College of California. Folks sometimes go out for coffee or food afterwards, so come prepared...&#xD;
