A basic code of conduct ensures safety and security of those participants at BFD-Atlanta activities and events. BFD creates/facilitates safe, sane, and risk-aware secure environments/venues. Participants are 100% active, responsible, and accountable for their conduct in maintaining such environments/venues at BFD standards. Our goal is to ensure events are positive experiences, pleasurable, energy filled, and fun for all participants with safety and security as top priorities. We support wholeheartedly RACK, PRICK, and CCC awareness. Events may involve levels of protocol (personal protocol are not affected). Respectful interaction always required.
General “space” or “energy” rule: The Dominant space is reserved for ALL Black Women identifying as Masters, Mistresses, Owners, or Dominants only. Submissive space is reserved for all s-types. All spaces MUST be respected and honored. Men are NOT allowed in Dominant space to service Top nor make offers to dominate within BFD-Atlanta.
For Casual Events: Attendees are required to maintain discretion through speech and dress codes. Most casual events are held in public (vanilla) venues where discretion, privacy, and decorum are required. Low or no protocol.
For Protocol and Private Events: Protocol events can be held in both public (reserved) and private venues where there will be monitored levels of freedom and free expression. Conduct follows basic code of safe, sane, risk-awareness, and secure participation. Interaction must be respectful, free from disruptive, rudeness, argumentative, or lewd behavior. Mid to high protocol may be in order.
For BDSM Play Parties: In addition to the above conduct, negotiated play/scenes will be required for those Black Women who are Masters, Mistresses, Owners, or Dominants and all s-types desiring to play with each other. DMs will be on premise for safety and security purposes. Mixed protocols (low, mid, high, and personal) will be observed.
Extreme play not allowed (hard limits): scat, water sports (exception available), breath play (exception available), animals, underage individuals, blood play (exception available), and gun play. Certain Edge Play requires permission/approval from BFD Leadership one (1) week prior to a play party. Certain edge play is prohibited at certain dungeon spaces.
Property: Bring your own (human and toy) property and special aftercare kit (if required). DO NOT touch anyone’s property, human or otherwise. This is grounds for dismissal from the party and venue.
Disruptive, rude, argumentative, or lewd persons will be asked to leave and/or be denied admission to future events.
