Episode Summary: This week, Mx. Dizzy, Pup Rekkr, and Lord Allen are, once again, discussing an issue near and dear to their hearts, Accessibility in Kink Spaces! This is part 2 where we talk about disability in dungeons and dynamics. If you are a person with a disability, a leader in the community, someone who loves someone with a disability, or just as a human wanting to find ways to make interactions with disabled humans more positive, this episode is for you! We will talk about the things you have to think about that you may not have had to before if you are new to considering people with disabilities in your spaces and/or play. We’ll give tips on how to customize scenes and play, accommodating needs and limitations. We’ll talk about the increased likelihood of abuse of someone with a disability including some of the warning signs to look for in dynamics. Join us to learn more about accessibility in kink and BDSM!
