Class Description
If you think electrosex toys are only for pain and hardcore BSDM scenes, think again! While they can be used to bring your play partner mercifully to their knees, a simple setting adjustment can bring sensual, erotic play to your bedroom. You can even use electric toys to kick back and enjoy hands free orgasms!
During this class, you’ll get to try out a number of e-stim toys along with a wide variety of their attachments and accessories. Whether you’re new to electric play or a seasoned pro, like things on the vanilla side or are a heavy S&M player, you’ll learn how to tailor electrosex tools to suit your specific needs.
Ken Melvoin-Berg and Sunny Megatron will cover applications for every type of player, giving you both the basics and walking you through advanced techniques. You’ll also learn about alternate uses and get a sneak peek at some brand new products not yet on the market.

Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation
Are you into humiliation play? Curious about it? Do you wonder why some people enjoy being embarrassed, shamed, and degraded? Many steer clear of humiliation because it seems so extreme and emotionally cruel. While some people are into that style of play, humiliation can also take on many other forms.
In this workshop, Sunny Megatron deconstructs the physiological elements of erotic humiliation with the goal of helping you figure out what flavor gets your juices flowing. You’ll learn how to: negotiate this kind of play, gauge intensity levels ranging from playful embarrassment to hard-core degradation, keep the focus on emotional safety, build humiliation scenes with positive outcomes in mind, inject humor into your emotional play, and more.

The Psychological Appeal of BDSM
Event Date: 10/15/2021
Location: via Zoom on behalf of KPACT – Kink and Poly Aware Chicago Therapists
$0.00 – $25.00
6:00 – 8:00 PM
2 CE Credits Available / Free for Students
Most of us are familiar with physical forms of BDSM. Activities like spanking, bondage, and sensation play are common fare. But what about the psychological side? How do kinksters mentally benefit from physical play? Why do unpleasantries like disgust, fear, and extreme degradation appeal to so many? How can emulating real-world oppressive power structures in the bedroom net a positive outcome? In what ways can play go too far and cause harm?
Join presenter Sunny Megatron (host of Sex with Sunny Megatron on Showtime TV & American Sex Podcast, Certified Sexuality & Kink Educator) as she breaks down the mental aspects of kink with a focus on some of the most misunderstood and extreme play styles like humiliation, age play, consensual non-consent, power exchange, and edge play.
Please send any accommodation requests to [email protected] at least one week prior to the event.
NOTE: This class is intended for therapists, educators, coaches, and other care professionals who work with kinky/kink-curious clients & will be presented from a clinical/professional perspective. While this professional seminar is not intended for general audiences, a similar class designed for personal/partnered exploration will be offered in the near future. If you would like to be notified when that workshop is scheduled, please sign up for my NEWSLETTER.

100% ONLINE CONFERENCE
JOIN INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR – MIDORI FOR THIS ONLINE KINKY SEXCEPTIONAL WEEKEND WITH SHA IN FEBRUARY!
GET READY FOR TWO DAYS OF UNIQUE DEEP DIVES INTO THE REALITIES AND CHALLENGES OF BDSM AS PRACTICED BY PEOPLE TODAY. WE WILL EXPLORE THE EXISTING TOOLS, LANGUAGE, IDENTITY FRAMEWORK AND STRATEGIES COMMONLY USED WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
We will unpack the personal assumptions, unspoken expectations, general cultural stereotyping, and kink subcultures’ own mythologizing narratives. These biases may be held by clients as well as clinicians. For the clients, these may lead to unproductive, unfulfilling or even toxic sexual experiences or relationships. For clinicians, this course fills many gaps in therapy discourse of BDSM sexuality, where clients often go unserved.
Midori will introduce one practical framework around language of play and strategy navigation of desire as well as help you become proficient in an effective model of sex and BDSM negotiation where mutuality and collaboration is emphasized.
Midori’s presentation will be frank and we are encouraging everyone’s first person perspective discussions. Expect break out discussions, role playing conversations, lectures and Q&A.
Over these two days, you will dive into:
-
What BDSM practitioners are seeking and the challenges that they experience
-
Practical, judgement-free framework and language of BDSM
-
Improving cultural proficiency of North American BDSM
