From the Organizers:
π΄ππππ is a steamy, sexy bathhouse party soundtracked by your favorite queer DJs, held at a luxurious private spa in Brooklyn. π΄ππππ centers trans and non-binary folks, while enthusiastically welcoming all queer people into the fantasy.
At π΄ππππ, those of us who havenβt always felt welcome in locker rooms, bathhouses, or s-x parties can indulge in shared sensuality. Spa amenities include a wet and dry sauna, steam room, hot tub, cold pool, locker rooms, showers, play space, and a dance floor. We celebrate fluidityβwithin ourselves and between each otherβexploring where our identities blur and sweat. This space is for trans folks, enbies, f4gs, dΒ₯kes, bi and pansexuals, GNCs, and all queer people committed to bodily and erotic liberation. Come get your opulence and your freak on, all under one roof.
We encourage those with means (especially cis folks) to buy Sponsor tickets to help make sensual spa culture accessible for all trans people.
Not your daddyβs bathhouseβunless he can hang with the dolls.
AMENITIES
Russian Sauna, Swedish Sauna, Thermal Hot Tub, Arctic Cold Plunge Pool, Spacious Locker Rooms with Bathrooms and Showers, Play Space, Dry Lounge with Bar and Dance Floor
ACCESS
The spa is all on the ground floor, with no stairs, and a ramp to the front door.
This is a bathhouse, which is composed of numerous wet spaces of various temperatures. Please wear clothing and footwear appropriate for this environment. Think beach, not bar, or go naked. (Towels are provided!) Bathhouses are places with varying temperatures, slippery surfaces, and constant chlorination and chemical sanitation.
We require cell phones or electronic devices to not be in our space. If you require an accommodation for medical/caregiving/etc reasons, please secure any devices in a watersafe pouch, and use them only in non-play spaces.
RESPECT
Moans is a bathhouse sex party created and run by trans and non-binary folks, with the intent to specifically center all trans and non-binary folks. We also welcome cis accomplices who stand in solidarity with us! We do require respect, an open mind, and consent. Please do not make assumptions about peopleβs identities, sexual orientation / preferences, or language for their genitals.
Moans has a zero-tolerance policy around discrimination or harassment towards race, gender, sexuality, disability, size, age, appearance, gender, genitals, kinks, for using condoms, for not using condoms, for being thirsty, for being shy, for being naked, for wearing "too much," for wearing the "wrong" thing, or for who they are in any other capacity.
CONSENT
Moans is a space that celebrates classic cruising culture, in a consent-forward practice. Please note that ambiguity does not qualify as affirmative consent. In other words, this is not an βimplied consentβ space. Verbal consent prior to physical engagement is strongly preferred, although we do acknowledge that non-verbal consent can be real. Either way, Moans REQUIRES that prior to any specific sexual act, all parties to acknowledge that participation is welcome from anyone engaging with each other. Consent can be revoked or renegotiated at any time, and substance use can impair consent.
Treat anyone declining you with respect. Feel free to give any honest and friendly proposal an equally respectful declination if you're just not feeling it right then. Respect any request for more space or privacy. Please do not bring your cell phone or photography into our space.
In short, explicitly asking is the golden standard, and "no" always means "no" in this space.
COVID POLICY:
We strongly suggest that you test before MOANS. If you receive a positive test or are feeling sick, please stay home. Since there is not room at the venue to offer rapid tests at the door we are not requiring proof of a negative test on site. Take care of yourself. Take care of your community.
