  1. Consent.

This applies to everyone involved with Twisted Boudoir, including Team Members, participants and attendees.

Consent is a mutually understood agreement, entered into freely and willingly, granting a specific set of permissions that can be withdrawn at any time.

  • Explicit verbal consent must be obtained before intentionally touching anyone. It is the responsibility of the person initiating the activity to ensure consent has been gained prior to starting.
  • Never assume there exists an implied consent.
  • Be as specific as possible when asking for consent.
  • If the nature of the activity changes or the participants’ understanding changes then consent for the change must be sought otherwise the activity must end.
  • Be aware that any participant can withdraw consent at any time.
    • Someone can not be held to a predetermined agreement. Consent must be ongoing.
  • Respect indecision (it means there is not consent).
    • Do not set out to convince someone of an answer or to change their mind.
  • Gain consent for each different activity.
    • Consent to one thing does not imply consent to anything else.
  • Make every effort to understand coercive influences. We encourage everyone to be aware that “Yes” does not always mean “Yes”. Consent should at all times be enthusiastic, informed and continual.
  • People who have breached consent will be asked to leave the space.

They will be unable to return unless they are actively engaged in an accountability process and be in compliance with all the terms and/or demands of that process (according to the facilitators, the survivor, and/or whomever has been designated to monitor the agreements emerging from the process).

Any Consensual-Non-consent play must be brought to the attention of the management before play commences. 

This applies to all “edge play” activities. This studio adheres to the Traffic light safe word system. But if we believe that play is reaching an unsafe level then management may step in and stop play.
