National Coalition for Sexual Freedom

We need to be able to see that, but also somebody listening who might be involved, you know, does what AJ is describing match the experience that you are having of being heard and respected and cared for or not? Yes.

The National Coalition for Sexual Freedom, who I know I talked about last time I spoke to you, love them.

They're wonderful.

They actually have some like kind of checklists for professionals who work with kinky or non-monogamous individuals to help them determine if consent was present.

And my thing is, if somebody is calling the police and they're saying it's a rough sex thing.

Most people in a healthy BDSM dynamic are probably not calling the police.

But you can always find the best resources from the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom.

They have tons and tons of resources.

So I found a 2022 study by Susan Wright and colleagues, and the title is Sexual Violence and Non-Consensual Experiences Among Alt-Sex Community Members.

So the researchers worked with the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom and they surveyed close to 3,000 adults that were involved in alternative sexuality communities.

So this was including BDSM, consensual non-monogamy, swinging, leather and fetish communities.

So a big chunk of them were kinky people.

Mm-hmm.

Uh, we also undid a raffle for NCSF, which is the National Coalition of Sexual Freedom.

And thanks to everyone, we raised $1,000, so we've already donated that to them.

Mm.
