You are in charge of your own body and, frankly, “No means no.” Consent is key and should be respected among all attendees. Although it may be obvious to some people, we ask our attendees to always inquire first before touching another person. If someone replies “no thanks,” please respect their wishes. It’s that simple.
As a sex-positive organization, we encourage all participants to remember that research on HIV and STIs constantly evolves and what you knew to true a few years ago may no longer be accurate. You are in charge of your own body, and you are not required to touch or be touched by anyone.
We encourage consensual safe J/O play and stress the “no lips below the hips” rule. And while kissing is allowed, insertion of anything anywhere is not permitted — whether with yourself or another person.
Some examples of permitted play:
- Self-masturbation and consensual mutual masturbation
- Showing off and watching
- Frot/Frottage (rubbing bodies/penises together)
- Oral contact above the waist only (kissing, nipple nibbling, etc.)
If you identify as male and enjoy jacking off with other males, you can (and should) attend.
Masturbation is universal and, thus, applies to all sexual orientations. We are a group of men who enjoy jacking off with other men. If you enjoy watching and/or playing with other men while they jack off, you will fit right in. At no time do we ask anybody to disclose their sexual orientation and/or marital status.
SF Jacks provide abolene and rolls of paper towels around the play space. Also, cookies and water are provided.
Nudity preferred, but gear, tank, tee or fetish wear acceptable.
