Rough Crowd December: Biting! (Hugs With Teeth)

Rough Crowd

Rough Crowd Date: Sunday, December 14, 2014

One of the most primal, powerful, and intimate pieces of play we have in our body-on-body arsenal is biting. It’s raw, it’s animalistic, and not many things short of sex bring two people closer to each other.

Biting can bring torture or bliss, and we’re going to delve into the differences and similarities. We’ll look at where to bite, how to bite, how long, how deep. Combining biting with pressure points and erogenous zones, teasing and sensation… bring a partner and get ready to get wet! *

*[Wetness not guaranteed. Always ask before licking someone. Bite marks and teeth marks may result. Screaming, yelping, and moaning may occur. Consult your mojo before attempting biting. Yeah, you got it. Go for it.]

If you’re into rough body play, or if you think this sounds interesting, then yes, it *is* for you. Come to Rough Crowd for overview, instruction, and practice time. Safety and technique will be first, and then ideas and practice time. No experience necessary; you’ll have some by the time you leave.

Rough Crowd October: Breath Play (third time’s the charm)

Rough Crowd

Rough Crowd Date: Sunday, October 19, 2014

Note that this replaces the original October Rough Crowd topic.

Sometimes when you’re doing rough body play, and someone starts getting all rowdy (or horny) you just need to choke someone out.

Breath play, like so much of rough body play, is very primal and animalistic; the need to breathe is core to life, and tapping into that fear can lead to all sorts of fun! It can be disorienting, terrifying, fuzzy-floating… for some people it brings on heightened sensation and submission. For others, it brings an incredible sense of intimacy, focus, and connection.

We’ll talk about several methods, risks and ways to mitigate them, and some techniques to help you find the way that works best on you or your partner.

Due to the nature of breath play, bringing your own play partner is highly encouraged for this workshop.

Rough Crowd September: Better Beatings Through Science! (feat. Vesper)

Rough Crowd

Rough Crowd Date: Sunday, September 7, 2014

This month we have a special guest speaker, Vesper, who will be presenting Better Beatings Through Science!

You know how to punch and kick, now you want to mess up your bottom more with rough body play? You can bulk up at the gym to hit harder, or you can come to SCIENCE class and learn to hit smarter. (Or both.) Join us for some interdisciplinary discipline with controlled groups and double blindfolded studies that would never make it past the ethics board. The lesson plans will include:

• Physics employed to let you hit harder, better, faster, and stronger,
• Chemistry used to add some sting to your slap,
• Kinesiology to show us which parts of our body we can easily change during play to vastly change your punishment output,
• Psychology to terrify your bottom into hurting themselves,
• Biology dissected for safer, easier and more painful play,
• Defense against the dark arts to get rid of the dementors,
• … and anatomy lessons I’m sure your gym teacher missed.
Widen your syllabus to sadistic and mind fucking new levels with this class. Once you make it through both lecture and lab sections of this class you’ll be on your way to a PhD in RBP.

Cigar Chicago August One Last Time!

Cigar Chicago

Smoker Date: Sunday, August 24, 2014

Our next smoker is Sunday, August 24, 2014, 6:30 pm – 10:00 pm at Blue Havana.

Yes, yes, I know: we said Farewell to Blue Havana back in June. But finding a new home has been slow, and it turns out they just got an extension on their lease. It’s like, you know, you broke up, but you’re both not really seeing anyone, and it’s late, and you’re both kinda horny….

So yeah. One last time at Blue Havana. We can’t keep meeting like this and all, but, you know, maybe for this one last time. Because let’s face it: it’s good. It’s so, soooo good.

Kick back with a cigar or two and cigar camaraderie with other kinky cigar lovers. As always, we’re taking over the shop after hours, so it’s just us.

We’re BYOB, so feel free bring your favorite whisky or other spirit and share the love with your friends; who knows, you might just find a new favorite for your bar, too. Or bring some chocolate… but mostly bring yourself.

Patronize Our Host Shop
Like a munch, Cigar Chicago smokers are free to attend, but show the shop we appreciate them letting us use their space and patronize them: they have a fantastic humidor, so buy a cigar. Or two. Or accessories. Or something. (To make it easier, Blue Havana is now extending Cigar Chicago 10% off things purchased during the smoker.)

Who is Welcome
All genders, ages, experience levels, races, shoe sizes, sexual orientations and preferences, partnership status, poly, D/s, M/s, height, eye color, religions, pet preferences, fitness levels, tax brackets, and pizza topping choices are welcome (even all veggie pizza, if that’s your thing; your pizza is not my pizza, and that’s OK).

Bottom line: if you think this sounds interesting, then yes, it is for you. While couples and groupings are always encouraged to come together (hey, isn’t that always nice?), it’s not a requirement to have a partner to come.

Here’s the event page on FetLife if you want to go tell the world you’re going: https://fetlife.com/events/273957

Here’s the group and discussion are here: https://fetlife.com/groups/55753/group_posts/5782447

Questions, please feel free to ask. I look forward to seeing you there.

Note that since Chicago requires anyone entering a tobacco shop to be 18 or up, and drinking requires you to be 21 or up, please plan on showing a state-issued ID if asked to do so.
