|Dennis Hession
|Al French
|Mary Verner
The last time Spokane voters re-elected a mayor was 34 years ago – 1973. (Compare that to the re-election-as-norm in Seattle, Portland, Eugene, Vancouver or Boise.) The incumbent mayor who is running this year, Dennis Hession, was appointed to the job in the middle of the current term, not elected, meaning both that he wouldn't necessarily have to beat history to win, and also that he's untested in a run for the top job.
Which may sound like an either-or, but we have some ease in suggesting the odds favor him.
One reason is the math of conventional political calculation. When an incumbent is on the ballot, the race almost always centers first around that incumbent – whether that person should stay or go. Hession, who is a former city council member (its president at the time he was chosen mayor, by a vote of the council), is opposed by two current council members, Al French and Mary Verner. Incumbents are ordinarily best-served by a divided opposition, and there's a good chance that will play out in this case.
There are other considerations, a few of them countervailing.
An era of good feelings. Hession's predecessor was Jim West, who was for the most part a highly capable mayor but whose final months were swamped by scandal, and who was recalled by the voters. City politics was poisonous. Hession had the disagreeable task but political advantage of draining the swamp, and he benefits by comparison with what came before. Hession has had some missteps, but nothing that looks especially horrible in context.
Similar backgrounds. Three years ago, all three of these candidates were on the Spokane city council, and they were not at war with each other. All had plenty of civic pushups under their belts, all were reasonably well known in the city, and all were operating on the inside of city hall; none is so easily definable as a "change" candidate. All are prominent professionals: Hession an attorney with a downtown law firm, French an architect fairly prominent in the business community, and Verner is an attorney and executive director of the Upper Columbia United Tribes.
Hession and French seem more "alike" than either is with Verner. And it's not just the gender thing (not to entirely discount that). Hession and French seem to have more a downtown business perspective, while Verner's seems more shaped by policy activism, such as the environmental and resource staff work she did earlier in her career. (Echoes of it continue to show up – consider the long list of policy interests on her web site.)
Verner has also had more negative headlines. The key here is a complaint filed with the new Spokane Ethics Commission (which is still in formative stages) saying Verner should have recused from voting on a city contract on archeological services, which went to a company endorsed by the Spokane Tribe, which is a member of the Upper Columbia United Tribes. Verner has called the complaint a smear, and the Spokane Spokesman-Review pointed out that the Spokane Tribe isn't the same thing as the regional tribe organization Verner works for. Politically, in a scandal-sensitized Spokane, any bad headlines can hurt, however valid the charges. And that said, we may not have seen the end of filed complaints.
The firefighters like French. The city's firefighters Local 29 has donated big to French, $5,000, and – though interviewing both him and Verner – didn't even invite Hession to a sit-down. (They've amassed a list of complaints against him.) French is undoubtedly glad to have the money, but to what extent could Hession counter by saying he's a tough manager and negotiator?
So, in all, there's some interest here, plenty of time for more twists and turns, and indications that the race isn't a runaway.
For the moment, we'll stick with the presumption of incumbency. Even if it Spokane.Share on Facebook

Utah Financial Responsibility Verification Program (FRVP) Insurance Company Reporting Guide
All insurance companies with active vehicle liability insurance policies in the state of Utah, both commercial and personal, are required by Utah law to submit their policy information.
Why should insurance companies report?
- Utah law requires it (see Legislation).
- Utah law enforcement officers and Financial Responsibility personnel of the Utah Department of Public Safety use this data to enforce the uninsured motorist laws. The database is queried during every traffic stop. Therefore, if an insurance company does not submit their data their clients will appear to be uninsured. This could result in needless citations and court costs and bad will for the respective insurance company.
If an insurance company does not submit their data, their clients will appear to be uninsured and will receive notices requiring them to contact their agents to fax proof of insurance to Insure-Rite. This too could negatively impact the goodwill of the insurance company.
In an effort to standardize reporting across multiple State implementations, as of 1/1/2010, Insure-Rite has retired the original UT specifications and has adopted a file specification virtually identical to the TX FRVP full book reporting specifications. The latest UT spec is at the following link. All new submissions and modifications to existing/legacy implementations for the Utah FRVP should conform to this new spec.
Utah FRVP Reporting Guide and User Manual v2.0 - Current (PDF - Requires Adobe - www.adobe.com)
*Note: All Utah submission files should be encrypted via PGP using Insure-Rite's public key prior to being transferred.

Would you like to speak with a doctor by video or phone at a time that suits you?
Our Doctor@Hand service, delivered by Doctor Care Anywhere, offers a doctor appointment by video or phone at a time that suits you.
First of all really well done on being so proactive about your health and the way you have managed to successfully reduce your cholesterol levels by using nutrition and a healthy way of eating. Obviously your osteopenia is a concern for you however this can also be helped greatly with a combination of diet and exercise. It would seem important that you increase your dairy intake to achieve better calcium and Vitamin D levels these two nutrients will serve to aid bone strength and density where possible. In terms of dairy foods it should possible to incorporate this back into your diet by using the low fat varieties instead of milk cheeses fromage frais and yoghurts for example. These all carry a much lower level of fats and are usually fortified with extra vitamin D and calcium in addition. Just be sure to check the sugar content on the labels of these, some products will contain high sugar levels which ultimately ends up being converted into fat when consumed in excess. Ideally you should aim for a product that has less than 5gm of sugar per 100 gm of product or at the most less than 10 gm. Current national guidelines on sugar intake suggest we should be consuming no more than 24gm of sugar a day which is six teaspoons just to give you an example. In addition to dairy there are other foods that will help to improve your calcium content just as well according to research, top of this list are sardines which are also full of heart healthy omega 3 oils, just a small portion 3 oz will deliver a substantial amount of calcium into your diet, green leafy vegetables are also a good source of calcium in addition with Boh Choy, Kale and collards containing some of the richest levels. Other bone supporting and building sources of food are the soy foods such as tofu, you can also buy soy based yoghurts which are both low fat and low sugar and soy milk while endame peas are another soy rich food in addition. soy is thought to have bone building properties through the actions of Isoflavones which it contains in high levels.
As you are aware in addition to diet research has shown that exercise in particular weight bearing exercise also helps to increase bone density, activities such as walking dancing weight training and yoga have all been shown to encourage the body to lay down more bone so you may like to think about regularily incorporating one of the above activities into your routine.
You might also find this link helpful- it is full of the latest research and information on cholesterol management including nutrition and diet, healthy eating and approved foods for cholesterol management : http://heartuk.org.uk/
Finally, If not already checked it may be worth asking your Gp to test your vitamin D level as this is closely involved with calcium and bone health and density. I also note that you have a diagnosis of IBS, therefore possibly you may like to speak with your Gp about also being checked for coeliac disease if you haven't already been and if you think you might have similar symptoms. Coeliac disease has been linked to osteopenia development and whilst unlikely if you were found to have it treatment of this could aid your osteopenia in addition.

This month in Foodstuffs we're talking to bakers, and today we talk with a woman in Manchester who bakes for charity.
Since 2007, Martha May Fink has used bake sales, physical and online ones, to raise tens of thousands of dollars for charities that address hunger – and all in her spare time, nights and weekends.
She talks with All Things Considered host Brady Carlson about how she started her bakesales, and her tips for baking during the holidays.

Reading Quaker faith & practice
The Book of Discipline Revision Preparation Group invites you to join with us, and other Quakers across the country, in reading and getting to know our current Book of Discipline. We have discerned that this is an important preliminary step before a decision is sought about any possible revision.
We have written a calendar as a suggestion, a prompt, and an encouragement. We have asked Woodbrooke to provide supporting materials in line with this calendar through Being Friends Together, the online learning resource library they run with Quaker Life (available at http://together.woodbrooke.org.uk/ ). We will be publishing columns in the Friend and maintaining an online presence in time with the calendar. We suggest that you might like to use the calendar to guide your private reading and/or your Meeting's study group. We recognise, though, that it will not suit everyone: we invite you to participate in whatever way suits you best, in more or less of the reading as appropriate for you, to adapt to your needs and your Meeting's needs, and trust that you will attend to what love requires of you.
Update, September 2017: Recognising that the calendar has run its course but that you may still want to participate, and that the full calendar was daunting for many, we are now offering a four-month version in which suggested passages offer tasters of many parts of Quaker faith & practice. This short calendar is called Not Too Late and it can be started at any time.
Your responses to the reading can be kept private or in prayer, shared with your Meeting, offered in writing to one of our many Quaker publications, published online through your preferred platform, or emailed to the Group at firstname.lastname@example.com. This is, however, a learning exercise rather than a consultation. You are invited to share in the hope that it will help others with their reading and understanding, rather than to inform a decision directly.
The calendar includes every chapter in the book and some of the extra material. It puts more technical church government material alongside more personal and experiential material, and tries to give a manageable, varied, and sometimes surprising mixture of reading. It tries to balance the need to read the whole book in a reasonable period of time with an awareness of the other demands which communal and secular life place on Friends – to take an obvious example, the suggested reading for November 2016 is on our Peace Testimony, at a time when we predict many Friends will have those issues in their minds.
For every month's suggested reading, we hope that you will ask these questions:
- how do I react to this material?
- what does this material, and my reaction to it, tell me about the history and development of Quakerism?
- what authority do I give to this text?
- how does this speak to me today?
- what spiritual benefits do I gain from reading and reflecting on this?
The Book of Discipline Revision Preparation Group look forward to taking this journey with you and hearing about your explorations.

Tweet your latest selfie from a #BlackLivesMatter protest. Go to Starbucks and order a "tall blonde, black" and engage your barista in a serious conversation about race. Once you're feeling suitably guilty–or adequately entitled–head over to your local movie theater, and go see Get Hard, the new comedy out Mar. 27 featuring Will Farrell and Kevin Hart–preferably after midnight, when the audience will be (ahem) more inclined to talk back to the screen. And laugh the P.C. police away.
Get Hard is a genuinely funny movie. It pokes fun, mercilessly, at America's racial politics–which is precisely why the left is telling itself to hate the film. At the South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, one audience member–evidently in need of a humor transplant–arose during the Q&A to offer the enlightened opinion that "This film seems racist."
Really? And in related news, a teacher in L.A. was suspended for using the "n-word" in appropriate historical context. We've come that far.
There is nothing racist about the film–though it satirizes racial stereotypes, as well as the absurd racial and class themes of contemporary politics.
The story is about a white fund manager (Ferrell) who is sentenced to maximum security prison for fraud, and asks the car wash attendant (Hart), whom he assumes has already been to prison, to help him prepare. His fear is being sexually assaulted in prison–which leads, yes, to some edgy gay humor, redeemed in the end by a gay friendship.
For daring to tackle these politically-charged themes, debut director Etan Cohen (full disclosure: a college friend) has, ridiculously, fallen under a cloud of suspicion. The Associated Press notes that Cohen co-wrote Tropic Thunder–"a film that memorably flirted with racially sensitive territory."
Cohen's film also includes a (funny) joke that compares a Compton street gangster to a "young Ronald Reagan." If I should have been offended, as a conservative, I forgot to notice. I just laughed.
You will, too.

Become a Marie Curie volunteer for the Scottish Events Team at Marie Curie Cancer Care
Become a Marie Curie volunteer.The events team at Marie Curie Cancer Care runs a wide variety of exciting events across Scotland; from cross country runs to skinny dips!
We rely on the support of our wonderful volunteers, both on the day of events and in the office throughout the planning stages, to make the event day as enjoyable as possible for our participants and to raise as much money as possible for the charity.
We have Marie Curie volunteer opportunities to suit everyone of all ages and abilities.
Volunteering in our office
We are always looking for volunteers to help us market events, help us with administration and recruit other volunteers too. We are also currently looking for a Stewardship Co-ordinator who will help us inspire and motivate our overseas event participants.
If you love networking and are able to inspire and motivate people to get the best out of them, we need you! You will support our overseas participants with their fundraising and any pre-event activities, enhancing their Marie Curie journey through the event and beyond.
Our office-based roles are very flexible and so are ideal if you want to commit to becoming a Marie Curie volunteer but not on a set day each week. We can also have volunteers who are based at home some of the time but who come in for regular catch-ups with the Events Team.
For more information see our website: http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/en-GB/fundraising-volunteering/volunteer/Find-a-volunteering-opportunity/
Volunteering at our events
If you are interested in helping us at an event itself, we are currently recruiting volunteers for our Walk Ten events. Walk Ten is the charity's flagship event series, taking place across the country in seventeen beautiful locations.
In Scotland we will be at Hill of Tarvit Mansionhouse in Cupar, Pollok Country Park in Glasgow and Dalkeith Country Estate just outside of Edinburgh. At 7pm hundreds of people will join us for a twilight walk to raise money to help Marie Curie nurses care for terminally ill people.
Afterwards they will soak up the festival-like atmosphere with live music and entertainment. At 10pm the event comes to a close with a celebration of light paying tribute to our nurses.
Hill of Tarvit Mansionhouse – Cupar, Fife. Saturday 3rd August:
For the third year Walk Ten returns to Hill of Tarvit Mansionhouse, the site of the first ever Marie Curie home for cancer patients. As the sun sets over Fife the panoramic views on this walk are breathtaking. Spectacular fireworks will be set off at 10pm in front of the house.
Pollok Country Park – Glasgow. Saturday 24th August:
Pollok Country Park is new to this year's Walk Ten. Our supporters will enjoy an evening's walk through its woodland, encountering Highland cows along the way and taking in the stunning views of Pollok House. A special light show will bring the evening to a close. Dogs on leads are welcome.
Dalkeith Country Estate – Edinburgh. Saturday 31st August:
Dalkeith Country Estate is also new this year. Participants will walk through beautiful woodland, bluebell walks and riverside trails and will be treated to a fireworks display at 10pm. Dogs on leads are welcome.
For more information about all of our Walk Ten events have a look at our website using the URLs above, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call the Events Team on 0845 052 4184.
What do we need volunteers to help us with?
Registering participants when they arrive
With up to 750 people arriving to take part we need many hands on deck to sign them in and answer any questions they might have.
Marshalling the route
Marshals will be assigned to a marshal point in pairs, equipped with hi-vis vests and walkie talkies. They are the Event Team's eyes and ears on the course and keep us informed of any problems that might arise.
Manning our merchandise stands
Volunteers will man our memory lantern, Walk Ten t-shirt and merchandise stalls. At Hill of Tarvit we will also be selling raffle tickets.
Cheering participants over the finish line
It makes a real difference to our participants' event experience if we have Marie Curie volunteers cheering them over the finish line and directing them on towards the food, hot drinks and entertainment on offer.
General duties that arise on the event day
This includes general set up and clear up, as well as small but useful tasks such as handing out water to participants, blowing up balloons and handing out free food/drink vouchers to other volunteers, staff and suppliers.
You will receive a volunteer briefing pack before the event, outlining exactly it is what you will be doing. On the day of the event you will also be briefed by a member of Marie Curie staff who will always be on hand during the event should you need them.
If you are interested in any of these volunteer opportunities, whether office-based or at any of the Walk Tens, simply drop the Regional Events Team a line on email@example.com or call Kirsty on 0131 561 3964.
Volunteers are essential to the running of the charity as a whole. If you would like to get involved as a Marie Curie volunteer at one of our hospices, shops or elsewhere, have a look at our website to see other roles on offer: www.mariecurie.org.uk/en-GB/fundraising-volunteering/volunteer/ways-to-volunteer/

iZettle Nets $55.5 Million for Expansion
May 12, 2014
iZettle, the Swedish mPOS technology provider often referred to as "the Square of Europe," revealed on Friday it has closed on a $55.5 million round of new financing. Founded in 2011, the company was one of the first in Europe to offer mobile card acceptance using a smartphone and last year iZettle was among the first to offer an EMV-compatible solution. In three years it has grown to 150 employees.
The company said it will use the capital, provided by Zouk Capital with participation from Dawn Capital and Intel Capital "to continue growing in existing markets as well as identifying new potential territories for expansion." Reports indicate Latin America and Europe will be the focus of iZettle's expansion plans.
"Building on its early successes in Europe, we're excited about iZettle's growth plans, and believe this round will give them the fire power required to execute on the next phase of expansion," said Nathan Medlock, a principal in Zouk's Growth Capital Team who will join the iZettle board.

text: Uncovered during the initial stages of construction for a new baseball stadium, this archaeological site dates back to 3900 B.C.E. and includes evidence of a human transition from hunter-gatherers to a more settled lifestyle. The earliest elements are pits dug to store food, which indicate a camp that was probably seasonal and temporary, but later storage was built aboveground and residential structures appeared.

How Are People Who Retired In The Year 2000 Doing Today?
Document Type
Publication Date
An interesting implication of the following chart is the predicted sustainable withdrawal rate of only 3.12% for a retiree in January 2000. At that point, market valuations had reached a historical peak (about 50% higher than seen in the historical period when we could estimate the sustainability of the 4% rule). With the safe savings rate approach, a 2000 retiree with the case study assumptions I discussed in Tuesday's article could have met her spending goal with a 2.8% withdrawal rate.

Are UFOs Flying In and Out of Popocatépetl?
What is Going on at the Popocatépetl volcano?
Mexico's Popocatépetl volcano is a very active one. Steadily experiencing volcanic activity for close to a decade, vulcanologists are consistently watching 'El Popo' in the event of a full eruption. Popocatepetl is located approximately 50 miles southeast of Mexico City. Over the past few years many alerts have been given as the mighty mountain gives signs of awakening. In some cases, evacuations for residents were ordered.
Are UFOs Flying In and Out of Popocatépetl?
While the volcano's natural rumblings are a real concern, some others are focused on other activity allegedly taking place in Popocatépetl. Some believe that the volcano routinely receives visitors in the form of UFOs.
For at least a couple of years now, it has been suggested that unidentified objects are flying in and out of Popocatépetl. Theories and speculations of UFOs spread through the Web and social media, most particularly YouTube where some alleged footage emerged in 2012. In this video there are claims objects appear to be heading straight into the volcano.
Although, earlier video had surfaced that highlighted a "cigar shaped UFO". This one was later determined to have been an elaborate hoax.
Previously, a local media outlet placed a permanent camera affixed to Popocatépetl in hopes of capturing additional footage of UFOs flying in and out of the volcano's crater. It is not uncommon for various reports and claims of UFOs to surface in connection with Popocatepetl. In June 2013, a new report of a video surfaced. In this footage, the UFO purportedly "slows down, turns and deliberately enters the smoldering volcano crater," reported Huffington Post.
The object appears to be round in shape, as opposed to the oblong image in the episode that was marked as a hoax.
Theories About the Events at Popocatépetl Volcano
For some time there have been several theories that have emerged. Some suggest the Mexican volcano is a refuge for UFOs to stop; others say the UFOs come from the fiery depths of Popocatépetl. Another perspective that has emerged on social media is there is an airport in the vicinity of the volcano and propose the images are actually capturing airplanes taking off and landing.
Marc Dantonio, chief photo and video analyst of the Mutual UFO Network, told Huffington Post in an email the images do not appear to be fake. "What I think is that this is not a likely fake. I think, for the moment, this is a genuine image capture."
Dantonio commented a bit about the technical details of time lapse videos and added:
"I am leaning toward the object being a captured commercial jet passing through the field of view. Several elements of this video are initially startling, firstly that the object appears to be moving fast, and secondly, that it appears to be descending into the volcano."
The Popocatépetl volcano is about 17,900 feet (5,455 meters) high. The question of whether or not UFOs are hovering around 'El Popo' at its highest altitude and taking heat baths inside its scorching depths continues to spark speculation.
Even now in 2014, there are speculations of another UFO sighting around El Popo. So what is going on at Popocatepetl besides the obvious ongoing volcanic activity? Are there UFOs at Popocatépetl, or is there a growing number of hoaxes? Or is there some other explanation?
What do you think?
Popocatépetl has always been surrounded by legend, especially the love story between El Popo and its twin, Iztaccihuatl.

What you need for spiritual progress are three things : A heart free from attachment and hatred, a tongue that is not tainted by untruth, a body not polluted by violence. The one who has these three is of sacred birth. Without these three, all penances and religious practices are of no use. You have to pray incessantly for Divine grace to confer these qualities. Realize that the Divine is within you.
(SS, March 1997 - Pg 68)

A lovely scenic neoclassical cabinet plate, circa 1900-1920 era. The central scene depicts four beautiful young maidens accompanied by a bovine. The depiction of the maidens and bovine is a well executed transfer design, while the surrounding scenery of trees, grasses, a gently flowing stream and gorgeous sky is hand painted in a lovely pallet of naturalistic colors. The subject extends to the very edge of the gently scalloped and gold trimmed white-ware blank supplied by the Charles Martin Limoges Company and carries the company back-stamp, a flying bird between two banners w/Limoges France, used after 1891. The plate measures 10 1/4" across with no cracks, chips or repairs.

Sentencing detailedhere
Stephen Thomas Clode was sentenced at the Pukekohe District Court yesterday on six charges of indecent assault and one charge each of possessing, making and distributing objectionable material. Three assault charges relate to the 10-year-old girl who was in his care and the other three to his Korean homestay, whose case led police to uncover more than 16,000 images of child pornography on his computer. Crown prosecutor Richard Marchant had sought a total prison sentence of six years as a starting point.
The judge told Clode he had faced up to 10 years for each charge of making and distributing objectionable material and up to five years for possessing. He said the penalty was so significant following a law change in Parliament to stamp out the trafficking of pornography, particularly of children.
Judge Blackie said many of the images found in Clode's possession showed sex between adult and children, some as young as 3 years old. Some images included animals. "You didn't have just a couple of pictures. You had 16,000. That is a considerable, that is a massive, volume."
He sentenced Clode to two years and nine months for the set of three charges, taking into account Clode's early guilty plea and that he had sought counselling.
The young Korean fee-paying student had come to live with Clode last December. He became a foster parent for two girls aged 10 and 8, and a boy aged 4 early this year, despite warnings from a priest and teacher that he was not suitable. The Korean student still could not tell her parents of the assaults because of the shame, he said. The 10-year-old girl, meanwhile, had treated him like a father.
Clode was sentenced to serve a concurrent 2 1/2-year term for the assault charges, factoring in an early guilty plea. The probation officer's report did not show that Clode felt any remorse for his actions.

Inspired by the recent performance of The Vagina Monologues at CMC, this piece is part of a series of Forum articles by women at CMC about women and sexuality. Check out the first two pieces in the series here and here. If you're interested in contributing an article on these topics, contact us at [email protected]
One of my favorite childhood books taught me: If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. When you give him the milk, he'll probably ask for a straw… and so on and so forth until the mouse is basically running your house.
A recent experience taught me: If you give a domme permission to use nipple clamps, she's going to ask to use zip ties as well. If you say yes to the zip ties, she'll probably propose some paddling… and so on and so forth until you find yourself chained to a stool for two hours being flogged, spanked, and caned.
The biggest difference I can see between the sweet-toothed mouse of my youth and the leather-clad Mistress of my dungeon? The mouse had never heard of enthusiastic consent.
I've learned to be very careful when I talk about my kinky preferences. Many people think of me as a mom-type. My purse is always stocked with tissues and snacks, I love working with kids, and I spent many a TNC holding back someone's hair while they puked. I've found that in the vanilla world, someone can think of me as a mom for years, but if I mention even once that I've played in a BDSM sex club, that's it: I'm the freaky sex girl. It's scary to share your sexuality when such a tiny detail can erase the rest of your existence. Yes—I love kinky sex, and that's a part of my identity that I celebrate. But it's just one part. I'm also a teacher. I also have a vast knowledge of webcomics. I've also lived on three different continents. Talking about my kinky side should expand people's view of me, but more often than not, it only reduces it.
On top of narrowing others' image of me, I've learned from personal experience that sharing my affinity for kink (and for sex in general) can have violent results. My sophomore year, I had built what I thought was a close friendship with a guy from one of the other colleges. Along the way, we swapped funny sex stories and discussed different things we had tried in bed. One night we drunkenly made out. The first few minutes were great, until suddenly he slammed me up against a wall and pinned my arms.
"Stop. You're hurting me and I want you to stop." Through the blur of the booze I knew it was important for me to state my needs and limits clearly.
"I know this is what you want," he told me. "I know you like it rough."
Again, I asked him to stop, making my voice calm and stern to make it clear that I wasn't flirting: I was denying consent.
"I know you want it," he sneered. "How long until I get to fuck your ass? That's what you like isn't it?"
He bent me over his bed and wrenched down my skirt. At this point I was pleading with him to stop but his only reply was to keep muttering "I know you want it" as he fumbled around for a condom.
Thankfully, the search for a condom took him across the room, de-escalating the situation enough for me to get my skirt back on. He slammed me against the wall for another onslaught of verbal abuse—this time accusing me of "taunting him for months" with details about my sex life—but eventually I was able to escape. I walked back to my dorm room bruised, crying, and grateful that he hadn't raped me.
The song "Blurred Lines" peaked as Billboard's number one single for twelve straight weeks the summer after I was sexually assaulted. For three months, anytime I turned on the radio, I was met with, "I know you want it… I know you want it." People defended the song as being "all in good fun," but with a chorus lifted word for word out of my attacker's script, I saw it as terrifying evidence of society's disregard for consent. The logic goes: If I say nothing sexual, then I'm probably just being coy. If I have the audacity to talk about what kinds of sex I want, then I am clearly begging to get fucked. Since my assault, I have become extremely careful about what I share, knowing that as a woman who is proud of my sexuality, I am likely to be misinterpreted. When I say, "I love having sex," sometimes people hear, "I would love to have sex with you."
While in the vanilla world I am often hesitant to even discuss my sex life, in the back of a sex club, I have allowed strangers to completely limit my mobility and inflict all manner of torturous delights. Why this radical disparity in what I deem to be safe? Because in the kink community, active consent is the standard. There are norms for negotiating limits before scenes or play sessions, and frequent check-ins throughout. Would you like me to spank you now? How is this amount of pressure? Are you comfortable with me leaving marks that may be visible above a t-shirt? After the play ends people take the time for aftercare: continuing to ask what you need (would you like to be touched right now or would you rather have some space?) and even following up a few days later to see how you are processing what may have been a very intense experience and to see if there is anything you want to do differently in the future.
Most kinky groups have strict rules prohibiting the consumption of alcohol or drugs prior to or during an event in order to preserve people's ability to clearly assess what is happening and give or deny consent. There is active policing within the community, and if someone is being disrespectful at an event, an organizer will throw them out and ban them from returning. There are abusive people in all walks of life, kink spaces included. Yet unlike in our society at large, in a kink community, these individuals' disregard for consent marks them as clear outliers.
My first time in a dungeon, I was shocked that even the people who weren't playing asked if I was comfortable with them watching. They sought active consent to engage with me in any sexual way, even if that way was just watching me. I was sitting, completely immobilized, in a room full of sadists who had duffle bags overflowing with implements to strike, to scratch, and to penetrate, and I felt infinitely safer than I do walking down the street most days.
I wish I could publish this article with my name attached to it, unafraid that someone else might wield my sexuality as a justification for violence against me, but our society just isn't there yet. I am reminded of that daily by the songs that play on the radio, the catcalls that I get on the street, and the sexist comments that colleagues make at work. In the midst of that, the dungeon is a refuge where not even a ball-gag can get in the way of the communication necessary for true consent. The vanilla world should take note.
