Erosphere, The power of softness
And what are you doing in the next few days? I'll be at Erosphère, an extraordinary festival of erotic, ludico-sexual and BDSM creativity, in which I give a workshop created by myself, on a theme close to my heart: The power of softness, with a title inspired by the work of psychoanalyst Anne Dufourmantelle.
For several days I'll be immersed in an intense bubble of games, friendships and rare connections... Can't wait!
Workshop description?
If I say BDSM, what comes to mind? Probably whipping, beating, handcuffing, restraint, severity, humiliation... And probably not to softness, caress, embrace, kiss, tenderness. Why is that? Perhaps because in most people's minds, to dominate means to be stern, intractable, brusque or even brutal, to bring to one's knees, to break down resistance... even if it means silencing, in oneself (and in the other), the little voice that yearns for a more delicate connection. What if we finally allowed this voice to express itself, to find its place at the heart of the bond of authority?
Playing softly can be playing hardly. Gentleness does not mean softness, nor lack of demands. On the contrary, softness is strength. Softness is power.
Let's set her free.
