Bridging the Community Gap – Opening Keynote discussion
(FREE FOR THE PUBLIC TO ATTEND)
with Dr. Stephen de Wit, Ryan G. Hinds & more. Moderated by Brian Ballard.
The various faces of sexuality, from non-monogamy to kink; queer issues to mainstream desires and everything in between are often individually defined, meaning very different things to different people.
This panel will bring together a variety of people from different backgrounds to discuss the very root of Playground’s existence: How do sexuality and relationships exist within these various communities? What conversations are already happening and which ones need to begin? What can we learn from one another to make sure that all communities are able to maintain their own individual identities while also being accepting of others choices.
With the right motivation and guidance, humans have the capability to create a much needed shift in social attitudes surrounding sexuality and relationships, one that is more accepting of others lifestyle choices that are custom designed to fit the people who choose them. Building a focused community and determining how to create a harmonious and tolerant mindset that bridges all of these different ways of approaching sexuality is something to strive for.
