Rules


1. BIPOC CENTERED

We operate from a decolonial and intersectional perspective, therefore we centre BIPOC LGBTQI+ people in and around our activities and plans. We believe in hybrid spaces, where different ethnic backgrounds work and collaborate with each other. But in order to create a safe space, we operate from marginalised people.

2. FREE OF CIS MEN

We create safer and brave spaces to explore and grow without our guards being up the entire time. In order to create these spaces, we made the choice to request cismen to refrain themselves from partaking our festival and workshops. In this way, we allow participants to really go deep and tap in their desires and needs, and in turn empower themselves from pain and trauma.

3. CONSENT IS KEY

NO MEANS NO. “I don't know” does NOT mean yes! Ask always for consent and check it regularly people can change their mind anytime. “Maybe” does not mean yes! Only yes means yes.

4. RESPECT PEOPLE'S GENDER

Gender is a western construction that has been used to oppress and exclude trans, non-binary christianity, imperialism and by colonization. Therefore it's a western concept, applied worldwide through colonization. Do not assume anyone's gender. Ask for their pronoun. If you don't know what someone's pronoun is, use “THEY.”
