Orientation to SexPositive Portland & Sex Positivity

  • Hosted by SexPositive Portland
  • Portland, OR -
  • 18 people on the list-

Here's where it all starts!

So, just what is sex positivity? And what/who is SexPositive Portland? What is going on around here!? Come join us and find out this and more. We encourage new members to attend; and we also encourage existing members to come and join in the fun, helping to build community.

Seriously, though, we cover SO much at this event, and we don't expect you to memorize it all. For extra credit, please visit our website: sexpositiveportland.org where you can check us out before attending, and browse through our events to get a sense of what we do. (Those who have applied for membership and been accepted can see all events; those who have not can see only events open to the public.)

Orientation is one of the required classes before attending Level 2 events. It's also a really fun way to get to know people, build community and create safer containers!

Here's what we'll cover

  • Welcome and Intros
  • A brief look at the history of the sex-positive movement
  • What SexPositive Portland is all about
  • Our core concepts of Care, Confidentiality, Communication, and Consent
  • How to be a great member
  • What you can look forward to on your SexPositive Portland journey
