Membership

Who

Folx who have a positive interest in BDSM with women and are 21 years old or older. We accept people into our space who are women, walk through society as women, nonbinary or belong to broader non cis male gender identities AND have demonstrated they are able to respect that this is a space that centers women and recognizes the need for women to feel safe in sexual activity or play.

BbD is not open to attendance by Binary Trans Men or Cisgender Men. Currently, respecting this space and its members includes covering anatomical penises in common areas; this may be an area that changes as the membership evolves.

Bound by Desire is based on the spirit of acceptance and celebration of diversity; therefore, we do not discriminate based on race, ethnic or religious background, age above majority, sexual orientation, gender expression, or physical disability.

How

The first step is to come to a social and meet us. As a guest, you must have a sponsor to attend other events and the social is the best way to meet members and get to know the club.

A Guest may request to become a pledge after attending BbD functions on two separate dates

Bound by Desire expects our members to respect the sexual choices of other members.

We expect our members to have a genuine and positive interest in BDSM with women. By genuine interest, we mean that prospective members must have a real and personal interest in BDSM. By positive interest, we mean an acceptance of BDSM as a valid and worthy sexuality.

Respect and Confidentiality

Membership and attendance in Bound by Desire shall be treated as confidential. Violations of confidentiality, safety or consensuality are grounds for revocation of membership. Membership is a privilege – not a “right”. Folx who are unsafe, violent, grossly irresponsible or dishonest are not welcome in Bound by Desire.

Pseudonyms, or scene names, may be used.

Bound by Desire reserves the right to refuse membership to anyone who does not meet our qualifications. We reserve the right to decline membership without stating a reason.
